Update

I went to a followup nutritionist appointment yesterday. Got some really good info. She gave me some paperwork to help me get started on daily meal planning. I am going to get my snacks together for the day the night before. I got some portions info. Which will help me immensely. I have always had trouble with portions. I am an overeater. I know this about myself. I have always been on the seefood diet. I see food and I eat it. Which is a horrible habit to break.

So all in all, my weight loss is still at a standstill. I am more determined than ever though. We are going on a mini vacay mid April and I'd like to lose 15+ pounds by then. I can do it, I know I can. Now all I need is the motivation to get it started. This will be easily attainable just as long as I push myself.

So, weight loss here I come. I go back to the nutrtionist March 23rd and I'd like to have some progress to report.

Aaaah a haircut

Doesn't a haircut make you feel about 20x better? It does for me. It's a little shorter than I am use to but I do like it. I need to train my bangs again, so for now they are pinned back. Which doesn't really help train them I suppose.

I need to get my arse to the gym and trying a little harder in general. I'm having a really hard time finding the motivation to go use my membership. I am going to try to set a goal to lose 20lbs in 6 weeks. This will be the time we go to the coast. I am hoping that I can lose more, but I don't want to set a goal that I can't reach.

So, what do you use for motivation? give me some advice please!

Thanks for making me feel like crud

Joshua doesn't understand that I am compulsive eater. Food sitting in front on me is a bad thing. If it's there, I will, without a doubt, eat it.

Thanks for making me feel bad about it. Making me feeling more like a fat cow than I do on a regular basis. I have a feeling I am being over emotional about it but it's hard not to be when you were teased all your life and food is your comfort zone.

I have an extremely long road ahead of me. EXTREMELY LONG!

B.U.S.Y

I feel so....unaccomplished. I have been to busy with life the last week to go to the gym. Seems like life always gets in the way, but in reality it's just another excuse to not go.

I need to stomp the excuses to death and just do it. I really wish sometimes I could take my own advice. I say it but don't implement it with myself. What kind of advice giver am I? A hypocritical one? Guess so...

We are going to Cali this weekend and I know I am going to struggle on the diet front big time.

Just remember Lindsey, you are not doing this because you want to. You're doing this because you have to!!

The new gym

I joined a new gym yesterday. They have childcare!!! So I can drop Mr. Wyatt off at preschool, then drop Mr. Caleb off in the childcare center and go workout. I am soooo excited. Plus, my membership includes all the classes at the gym. Kickboxing, Zumba, Crossfit, and a few other classes. Also for being a new membership I get a free consult with a personal trainer.

I am so so so excited about this gym. It's a lot bigger, and there are younger people there. I don't feel like a baby in a gym. Which is awesome. I think I am going to try Zumba for now. I want to work on my ankle a little bit before I do anything hardcore like kickboxing. I really don't want to eff it up anymore than it already is.

As soon as Wyatt is better than I am going to go to the gym. He's taking a sick day from preschool. MY poor boy was throwing up all night. Feel better soon little man.
