As a fitness blogger, I want to stay as truthful as possible about my health journey. This week has been a bit of a reality check for me.
Today wasn't much better.
I can't decide how I feel, really.
It's my weight.
My jeans are a bit tight again...the smaller size anyway...and the scale is telling me I've officially gained about 14 pounds from my lowest weight, about a year ago.
I don't need to lose much but I do need to actually buckle down.
For real.
For real, for real.
I just ate like crap this week. I had a very 'blehh this' attitude and kept eating what I want.
I was able to keep my calories and fat grams low today, but my carbs and sugars were crazy high. That's where the weight gain comes from.
However, there's a flip side to all of this too.
I love how I look right now. I look healthy. I feel strong. I love how I look in clothes...most clothes...tight shirts aren't really my favorite but I might as well accept I'll never have the flattest stomach. I want to keep trying though till I look leaner.
It's a toss up. Might just need to throw out the scale and keep going with my new goals.
My brother gets married in May to his wonderful fiance and I want to be a minimum of 10lbs lighter. max the 14 I've put on.
I'm still going to workout 6 days a week. Get enough protein and meal plan like my life depends on it.
Also, get rid of the junk food from the house.
Tomorrow I am going to do my best to stay on track with the Holiday. I've done it before, I can do it again.
Here goes!
Giving it my best shot.
Blessings,
A
