I was totally stoked when I first started to do this and today I, to put it plainly, wasn't stoked. I don't know what it is or why, but all I wanted to do was sit around, watch TV and snack on all the junk food my family comes home with.
I didn't want to wake up earlier than necessary.
I didn't want to put gym clothes on.
I didn't want to log my food.
Today was a total "blah" day if I've ever had one.
I guess I'm in a rut because I'm not SEEING any real difference as to what I'm doing. Yeah, when I weigh in, I see a slightly lower number on the scale, but I want at least ONE NSV (Non Scale Victory). I know that's a bit antsy of myself, considering I've only been working on this for a little over two weeks, but I can't help it! Another reason might be that I've been eating sort of the same foods for the past 2 weeks and that gets to be a bit monotonous if I do say so myself. However, I don't have much of a budget to buy anything outside of what my family wants to eat and my rather large family, although desiring to lose weight, refuses to stop eating anything and everything that is bad to eat (ice cream sandwiches, pizza, pop tarts, gummies, ect.) I'm at least keeping the willpower to not eat their food though, right? Now, if only there were a way to log exercise as "Keeping willpower to not snack on delicious looking/bad for my health foods"...
I'm hanging out with friends that I haven't really seen since I started working out and eating better this coming weekend and I'd loveee for someone to ask if I've lost any weight. I know it probably won't happen, but still. A girl can hope, right? Wearing the same clothes probably doesn't help my case with whether people notice my weightloss or not, but if they still fit-ish, then I'm going to keep wearing them since I'm A) too broke/cheap to buy new clothes all the time and B) I've got lots more weight to lose so might as well "go big or go home" when it comes to my new clothes purchases.
I guess that's it with today's troubles. Hopefully tomorrow will be better.
Good job with the will power! That is hard! Its like that at my house. Except I make myself healthy snacks and the BF wants to eat it all in the middle of the night when I am sleeping and then I don't have my snacks. lol I am sure your friends will notice a change in your body. Your clothes are probably looser on you now.
