Fine For Valentine's FINAL WEIGH IN

Well... umm yea. Apparently I am RIGHT BACK where I started at with my weight, but that is ok. Every step has been a learning experience... so here's what I've learned about myself in this challange.

  • I am in fact an emotional eater
  • when I pay attention to eating I do actually lose weight
  • i can lose weight IF I try
  • I have to WANT to lose weight

As many of you know, I have been going through a lot this past month and instead of those new challenges that have been placed in front of me being a motivator, I have used them as an excuse...well no more!

So here is to the NEW challenge that the Shrinking Jeans crew is going to come up with and know that I will be motivated to continue this time...

Congratualtions to all my sisters (and brothers) who did this challange and WAY TO GO TO YOU ALL who has success...ESPECIALLY my good friend Kate who more than achieved her goal but surpassed it! I am so proud of you Kate!!!

Looking back over my personal blog (which is private) I realized that I have GAINED over 20lbs (23.9 to be exact) since roughly this time last year. I mean come the frick on... all my friends are losing weight, you'd think that would be an inspiration...but no it seems that I am having even more self-distructive behavior... BUT in the same sense, how can I teach my children to be happy with who you are when I am not even happy with what/who I am... thought for the week I guess, but hopefully I will be able to get my fat ass off the couch and onto a healthier me...
