Well this past weekend has been one for the record books-def one that i know that i will not forget for the rest of my life! To start a young man was shot and killed at a lil hole in the wall club in my hometown--talk about devastating--never would i have imagined that something like would happen in this small town,but it just goes to show you that it can happen anywhere!! Although i wasnt there it still had a major impact on my life-mainly bc so many people that i love and care about were present when it happened-add to that the fact that come to find out that the coward shot the wrong person-it could have easily been someone that i care about. Talk about scary-heartbreaking-and extremely senseless-it really made me realize even more that I should never take life or anyone in my life for granted.
Add to that-the former pastor of my church-the man that I always thought would be the one to perform my wedding-passed away. His family and mine were very close while they were here and remained close for the longest time after they moved...lol his youngest son had a lil crush on me when we were younger,but at that time i was so not interested in boys-i was all about my dolls lol. Last year I found him on facebook and in October I had a chance to see him while visiting my friend in Chicago-that was the first time i had seen him since i think his brother's wedding prob like 6 yrs ago and let me tell you UM.UM.UM. after hanging with him it really made me realize what i want in a husband. Anywho--i have gotten wayyyy off topic--all that to say this was soo unexpected and added to my heartache.
So I need to really focus on changing my life-so that i can live it to the fullest and without having any regrets. I have yet to fully embrace the WW lifestyle-so im not reaping the full benefits and that is just unacceptable! I always see these transformations shows-people on twitter-or in the ww fb group that i am a part-have amazing results and for a brief time i get this wave of uhh idk-motivation i guess-maybe inspiration is a better word and then BAM as quick as it comes it leaves. I think part of the problem is that I weigh in on Thursday and then the wknd is here and i lose my mind and then i feel like i only monday-wed to get some results-the scale shows it-true there have been weeks where i may lose over a lb but most of the time its less than a lb. I lack consistency and thats what i need to focus on!
Tracie I'm sorry for all you are experiencing right now.
ReplyDeleteAs far as WW, I'd suggest changing your weigh in day to Monday. You will be less likely to overdo it on the weekends.
Also, if you can, try sticking to the eating plan for one full week. I'd guarantee a great loss. That loss will provide the needed jump start and motivation that it sounds like you desire.
We are here for you!

Thanks Val!!
ReplyDeleteRight now the only day i can weigh in is on thursday bc we only have 2 meeting days and the tues meeting is in the afternoon and i'll b at work--but once i take the layoff i'll b able to attend either. I did go to the store last night and pick up some groceries so hopefully i can start getn it together!
Thanks again!!! :)
