Starting Over

For the love of God, how many times am I going to do this?!?! I'm starting my diet over.....again.

I took a break for about 6 weeks after getting the worst cold I've ever had. Then Brandon got sick. Then I lost my motivation. Now I found it again. So a couple weeks ago I eased back into my diet. Then a few days ago I just logged my weight for the first time since January. I gained all my weight back and then some!! I knew it was time to take my fat ass back to the gym. So I went twice in the past 3 days. Apparently that wasn't enough because I gained yet another 1.2 pounds! So now not only have I gained all the weight I lost since November, I also gained an additional 2.4 pounds. What a huge disappointment.

So I'm going to try dropping WW and give MyFitnessPal a shot. My mom suggested it to me a while ago but I had already signed up for WW so I didn't bother signing up for another weight loss program, especially since they are so different. But many people have said good things about it so here goes nothin'. And I've put a widget up on my blogger to constantly remind of how much I've gained or lost.

I can't keep living like this. My normal everyday life has been completely affected by the weight I've gained. I seriously need to do something about it. Please help to motivate me!!

  1. Hey-I have been following your blog for a long time....since the days of infertility....because I was in the same boat and it helped to read other people going through the same thing. I just wanted to encourage you on the weight loss and give you another option. My husband had to lose a lot of weight and quickly due to some health issues. We have been doing the Atkins diet for around 2 months now and he has lost 30 pounds. Once you get started and see what you can eat and not eat, it is very easy. Start on the induction phase. I didn't need to lose weight but I did it with him to encourage him and I ended up losing 10 lbs. Good luck Christa!
