One Minute Writer on the Road
This Autumn, what do you wish would fall?
My weight. Wishing isn't going to get me very far though, nor is dreaming or planning. I need to be doing and I finally feel like I am. Quite some time ago I was all gun-ho about my weight loss. I lost a bunch of pounds and was very happy with myself. Then I plateaued and I stopped losing weight and starting gaining instead. More time passed where I said I was watching my weight and trying to lose it and eating well and blah blah blah, but really I was making excuses and doing enough that I felt deprived of good food and very guilty when I ate it, but not nearly enough to actually be losing weight at a decent rate.
This is the first time in quite some time that I feel the passion and drive to lose weight like I did way back when I first started. I think this is what has been missing the last little while - not the will power or the ability, but the passion.
I'm trying to step back up again too. I miss running so much but don't really like anything eles, so I'm totally screwed in the winter. I have been going to the gym though, and on warm days have still gone for a run. I hope I can keep it up. I feel so much better when I do. (Addicted to the endorphines!)
