This past Tuesday I had a slight crisis. After being well aware that I'd been slacking more than usual, I stepped on the scale after my workout and found that I had in fact gained back 4 lbs. While this number doesn't seem that drastic to the normal human being, to me... I was devastated. While Mr. Perfect tried and tried to convince me I would lose it quickly I was furious at the fact I had let myself gain anything back to lose all over again! I worked hard to lose it the first time! I wanted to lose more not watch the scales go up and down around the same numbers! It was definitely a kick in the ass.
I've doubled my workouts this week. I had slacked from the usual 3-4 down to 2 a week. This week I was back at 4. I have seriously watched my food intake and kept my points low on WW. After my run this morning, I weighed in again. Back down 5! That's the 4 I had put back on plus 1! Don't ask me how this happened from Tuesday to Friday or even moreso why I can't lose that much that quickly on a regular basis, but I'm happy with it in the moment! I was in desperate need for a upper in the motivation department and Tuesday's 'ugly truth' certainly was that upper. Thank God. Let's hope I can keep it up! Start up all over again, here we go!
