Who Am I Kidding?


This past week I read some pretty impactful posts from fellow WW members on Instagram. Some very brutal honesty and kick in the pants type of posts. As I was reading these posts I was like "yeah, you go girl, tell it like it is". And then I was like WOAH - she is definitely talking to me. 

These women - Ashley @ww.maintaining.mayhem, Caitlin @mrspotter_gets_healthy, and others have had such successful weightloss journeys. They invoke inspiration and motivation on a daily basis. But this week they kept it real and basically let their followers know that this is not an easy journey but this system works. Are you tracking? Are you tracking honestly? Every bite, lick, and taste? Are you exercising? 

Time to keep it real. Since the beginning of my journey I haven't been good with weighing my food in order to ensure my portions were accurate. In the beginning this didn't seem to hinder my weight loss. I lost almost 50lbs in the first 6 months of my journey with WW and although I built a lot of great habits, I didn't nurture those habits as time went on. Over 2 years later I haven't lost any more weight and have basically been maintaining. I know, if I am being honest with myself, that I am not tracking honestly. 

This week I really started to pay attention to my portions and how I was tracking. I've been weighing some of my food that I wasn't in the habit of doing before. It has definitely been a bit of an eye opener. Some foods I wasn't eating enough of and others I was eating too much of. UGH...I KNOW BETTER...I NEED TO DO BETTER. I've let myself just coast along and expect results. Yes, I work out, and I feel good but I am not going to see any more weight loss if I am not trying in the food and nutrition department as well. I mean who am I kidding? Just myself clearly. 

I am hitting the reset button...again...and pledging to myself to be more honest with what I put in my mouth. I am hoping this helps kick start my weight loss again.
