alittle bummed

All afternoon all I have thought about is the fact that Im on this stupid plateau. That I only lost 3 lbs this month. That I have lost NO inches.

It has played over and over in my head - the times I could have worked out that I didnt. The times I practically binged when I got off track and how I could have handled that better. The times I have sat watching tv, doing nothing - when I could have been doing squats or pushups ect during the commercials. There is just so much more I could have done in the month of March.

There is only one more day in this month and a new one is starting. Its time to kick things in high gear.

This coming week I am going to go to the gym and have a 3D pic done of what I could look like at goal weight - I am so freaking excited to put a picture to the goal. That picture will be going EVERY where with me.

Im aiming to either get up early to work out or head straight to the gym when I get off work depending on the day ... or maybe both would be good too :)

Thursday I am going to try a spin class - I am SCARED of my first spin class. I am going to look like a moron! But I need to push myself out of my comfort zone.

So I am finishing watching the biggest loser then heading to pack my lunch. Here is my plan

• Coffee with FF creamer and splenda = 0
• low sugar oatmeal = 2
• hard boiled egg = 2
• 100cal cottage cheese doubler = 2
• spicy black bean burger on roll = 3
• small apple = 1
• cup of soup = 1
• Carrots and hummus = 2
• fiber one bar = 2
• running total = 15, 12 left
• dinner based on going to the gym

So much to post - so little space to do it!

I have so much to say that this could easily be 3 or 4 post! So I think I will bullet point it to try to save everyone some reading.

• I have made new goals for April. March didnt go so well. I only lost 3 lbs in the month of March and my measurements are EXACTLY the same :( Really really bummed about this!
• I am going to get out of this funk of a plateau!
• I joined the gym today... LOVED IT! They have SO many classes to chose from. Everyone was really nice. Great equipment. Nice kids and pool area. I was so scared when I first got there - I sat in my car for 10 min because EVERYONE going in was female and a size 4 or 6... while I feel good about my weight loss I felt HUGE sitting there waiting to go in.
• Tried pilates today - abs are sore but needed to do some stuff on my won before and after to get the cardio in.
• I made the most yummy dinner - I roasted asparagus for the first time ever and LOVED it! I had only previously tried it battered and fried :( My eating has been right on the past two days.
• I have PEED so freaking much since yesterday... but happy to get my water in!
