I am pissed at myself.  I ate exactly as much as I burned this week.  I maintained, no gain, no loss, just stayed where I was.  The scale is our compass that shows where we are going.  (Read that in someones blog last month, wish I remembered who’s.  It was an awesome blog.)  If is it goes down we are headed in the right direction.  If it goes up we are going in the wrong direction and need to stop and ask directions or get out a map.  And if it stays the same (and we are not at our goal weight) then we are going NO WHERE.  I hate going no where.  One of the highlights of my week is seeing my weight ticker going down.

Why am I going no where?

1. I missed and half assed too many workouts. 
2. I ate horribly much of the week.
3. I did not hold myself accountable for my actions.

How am I going to fix this?

1. Do what I say I am going to do.
2. Follow my eating plan. 
3. Stop eating out 4 or 5 days a week.
4. Hold myself accountable.  All the support and encouragement in the world does no good when I am not facing the consequences of my actions. 

My goals this week are not changing much.  Apparently I have the right idea or I would not have maintained.

1. Walk/ Jog 45 to 60 minutes 6 days
2. 100 sit ups daily
3. 60 push ups every other day
4. Biggest Loser 2 DVD Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Saturday
5. Drink 90 oz of water daily
6. Meditate 15 minutes daily
7. Keep food log
8. Blog more and be more involved in the Wildcat forums

As I have said before this is about solutions not problems.  I want to change the old habits that are slowly killing me.  I can see how far I have come.  I am leaving the victim mentality behind.  I can see myself crossing the finish line of a 5k, wearing a little black dress, being comfortable in my own skin.  Plateau or not I am succeeding!
