I really don’t think I can put into words how painful it is to go back and read my old WIW posts. I celebrated my 50 pound loss in November of 2010, and 2011 was really just a shit-show for me. I got confident, got cocky, and got comfortable. And it has affected me on the scale. I can’t believe that I let myself go backwards in this process. I could blame it on the holidays, on being busy or on a death in the family. But really, all I have to blame is myself.
So, this is it. I’m sick of making “starting over” posts. I’m sick of seeing the 170’s. I’m sick of my clothes not fitting. I’ve been back on track since last Monday, and I will be on track until I see 140 on that scale. Yes, I wanted to be down for my trip to Vegas, but I realize that that isn’t what is important. Slow and steady really does win the race, so that’s how I’m going to take it. Slow and steady. And I will reach 140 this year. So help me God.
