Why, Oh, Why?

Well, I had the BEST of intentions to shed a few pounds...but I didn't do so well these last 2 weeks. Why? I wish I knew!!! I can totally give MANY reasons why....like planning a birthday for my 2 year old, having our hot water heater replaced, going on vacation for 4 days, and so on...BUT I am not buying those excuses anymore from myself =) I wish I knew the REAL REASON WHY? I am thinking that after doing all I do every day, I am just worn out and want to sit a enjoy a snack =)

I am writing this post because I am hoping this will act as a sort of Accountability! So, I am trying AGAIN!!

Now, I only have 9 1/2 weeks....I am hopeful that I can still shed a few pounds by my Birthday!!

Here are my strengths:

I eat healthy during the day
I typically have a semi-active day with housework and such


Here are my weaknesses:

I am a late night snacker!!
I don't have a routine for exercising!!!
I am not a big water drinker, because I HATE going to the bathroom so much! Don't get me wrong, when I drink, it is either coffee or water or a yogurt smoothie I make, I just don't drink glass after glass of water!!!

So, if anyone has any suggestions for me, please comment! I could use some help. Or, if you have any encouraging words, please share them. I am doubtful that there are many readers, and that is okay with me...this is ultimately a place for me to use. For those of you who relate to my limbo land of not being overweight, but not being a DIE-HARD health nut, please share your thoughts. It is a weird place =)

Well, I am BACK at it AGAIN =)

  1. Good luck Melissa! I have to say, you look perfect just the way you are! I'm the last one to be giving any nutritional advice, b/c I don't take my own advice either! But maybe try substituting just one yogurt smoothie for a glass of water...more water really is key (so I've heard!!) And cut out the carbs! Oh...fora nice night time snack try sugar free jello made w/ some fruit in it and top w/ cool whip! yum!! satisfies that sweet tooth w/out the calories and fat or sugar! Maybe your magic number now could be 3? 12 - 1+2=3!! ;-)
