i’ve been staying off the scale for a while now. my weight fluctuates so much on it, i thought it would be better for me to go by inches and how my clothes fit. the depression and frustration from weighing myself wasn’t really helping.
but, when we got back from new york i decided to jump on. i figured i’d lost some weight from all the walking we did. boy was i wrong. i was up 5 pounds from the last time i weighed. too bad i can’t remember when that was. but, to be honest, i hadn’t worked out in a while either. i’m just not a big fan of it. i hate it actually, so it’s hard to motivate myself.
seeing that jump on the scale was enough motivation, though. i’m getting back into counting my calories ultra religiously and doing my workouts every day. i figure if i work out 5 days a week i should be able to start losing again. so far so good for yesterday and today. wish me luck!

Good luck staying consistent. It is tough!!
Good luck honey, I know you can do it. I’m so proud of you and you are so beautiful.
I hate to exercise with a passion. I have never been anywhere near regular with it. I think for me to be a regular exerciser I’d have to have a partner. Good luck w/ the weight loss!!
I’m with you… I hate exercise. I keep hoping to find an outdoor activity that will burn calories, but will be so fun that it won’t seem like exercise. Not holding my breath though…
Also, I always seem to gain weight when I travel. I wouldn’t be surprised if the 5lbs is only temporary. Don’t be discouraged!
good luck girl! Try sparkpeople again, that’s what worked for me!!
You can do it – you’ve done it before! I remember when you dropped all that weight when we worked together – I was SO impressed! I hate excerising, too. That’s why I went with dieting and surprisingly that worked with little effort. I just needed to learn how to eat, as crazy as that sounds. Good luck – we’re all pulling for you!!
Look at that sweet blog comment from your husband. I think that you’re really pretty, too! Good luck with your goals. I hate to work out, too, unless it’s something fun like step aerobics or walking. Any chance that you could take an exercise class? It’s hard … so very hard. 🙁 I feel poured into my pants this week because of PMS. 🙁
