Wow....day 90.....almost 100 days and I am NO where near where I wanted to be. This day was supposed to be this very celebratory day, and it is quite the opposite. I am very far from happy today. I look in the mirror and I am back to seeing the girl from 90 days ago. I am not seeing the girl I thought I would be seeing. So I just really need to hone in and figure out what is the most important to me. Figure out what it is that is important and stick to that. I know this seems like I am complaining, but I am just no where near where I thought I would be at this point in this journey.
I know this is a marathon and not a sprint, but I am unhappy with my progress so I am just going to have to figure out what I can do to fix it. I know I said that I would post a list today about what I really am going to start focusing on these next few weeks, but I don't know what that is just yet. I am thinking too long term when I really need to be thinking short term. I am thinking too much about what I want now, but can't have, then what I need now and what is to come. (if that makes sense).
I have so much work still to do that I don't know how I will ever get there. I am unfortunately thinking so much about what I want when this is over, than what I need to be focused on now. So I will leave you all with that this evening. I am trying to just vent this one out and work it out on my own, so I will let you all know how that goes tomorrow. Have a wonderful evening everyone!!
All you can do is focus on working toward your goal in the present moment. Take it day by day. Do something small each day to take a step toward your goal. Skip that soft drink, grab a water. It would be great if we could lose 20 pounds in a day, but we can't, so all we can do is win the day!
ReplyDeleteI think a really important thing to keep in mind here is that you have made GIANT changes and come a really long way toward your goal. The numbers don't always mean everything, and the number on the scale is in no way related to your value as a person, as a mom, as a wife, etc. You've changed your habits drastically and are somehow dealing with working full-time, being a great mom, AND this, which I know I couldn't do. Be nice to yourself! You deserve it!
