New Motivation
Sunday, March 27, 2011 at 2:34 PM filed under Weight Loss postings
Last June I spent two weeks in Pennsylvania with my grandmother. It was so nice to just to relax a while and not have to worry about anything. My grandma just enjoyed each other's company and played lots of King's Corner. The crazy part is that I naturally ate less and frequently brought food home for a snack or another meal. It was a very nice vacation.
The last two weeks have been very busy and stressful with lots of studying for midterms and getting projects done. I haven't been watching what I eat (and over eating at that), not exercising more than walking up and down the hill between my room and the center of campus, and barely getting sleep (but starting to wake up to my own alarms now).
Friday night was the worse night. I really just needed a shoulder to lean on and had no one. My boyfriend couldn't even come and visit until yesterday. I was walking up the hill from late night and I called my grandma. Hearing how I just need a vacation, she offered to buy me a ticket to see her between finals and summer school, as long as I got the okay from my dad. Last time I saw her, we made a deal the next time I got a ticket there I'd have to have lost weight. When I used this response, she said she's make this one acception.
Knowing my grandma is making an acception on my weight loss and still letting me go, I'm not going to disappoint her. I want to try to lose some weight first. This is my new motivation...
I made a couple main goals:
By the end of August I want to be at least 230 pounds if not less.
By the end of December I want to be at least 200 pounds or less.
By the end of May I want to be at least 170 pounds or less.
My ultimate goal is 150 pounds. (I really prefer being 130 pounds, but rather make a reasonable goal first.)
I still have smaller goals to make and I want to make rewards for them too. I just need to think about them.
This morning I weighed in the heaviest I've ever been and I don't like it. I refused to stay at this weight or go even higher. It's time to tackle this thing once and for all.
