Hello, my name is Nelly Leener and I am a Yo-Yo Dieter
Hey girls...sorry its been so long since I posted. I spent a week in Pittsburgh visitting Jason's family and let's just say everytime I go to Pittsburgh I eat like it's my last meal. This has been going on for years...its such a hard habit to break!!! When I'm on vacation I feel like it's all about relaxing and not worrying about points. So are you ready for the ugly truth? I gained 6 lbs. :( I was so mad at myself. The good news is we got back on Tuesday and by Saturday I had lost 6.2 lbs! So I don't know if I should try and hold back next time or just enjoy the break because I know I can lose it fairly quickly. Regardless I have not made much progress at all the last few weeks! We have been sooooo ridiculously busy that I haven't exercised at all. So I still have 8 lbs to lose. I can't tell you how many times I have set out to lose weight, been successful, but then always stopped right around now...when I have only a few more lbs to lose to reach my goal...it's like I subconsciously tell myself, "you've done enough" and I lose motivation which is so silly because the goal is very reachable at this point. I must re-focus...I REALLY want to reach my goal this time and maintain it!!!

Oh, I KNOW what you mean! The only thing keeping me is that tiny wardrobe hanging in my closet. Not that the amount of clothes is tiny--it's a lot of clothes in tiny sizes! But we are committing here to 6 months no MATTER WHAT we keep trying for SIX MONTHS. I was going to post my guilty confession today--I made mac n cheese for Jazz today & ate the majority of it by myself. Then I had a PB&J for dessert! I think we are going out to dinner tomorrow night, so I think I am taking a two day dieting break, then back on track Weds? So no worries Nelly! You are doing FABULOUS!
ReplyDeleteGo Nelly!! I know this is a random comment but just so you know I read your emails. :) I have gained about 9 pounds since the wedding (granted I lost 5 FOR the wedding) that I will begin tryig to lose tomorrow, so obviously today I am eating everything I can get my hands on. Each time I think "...but the wedding is over! I can relax!!" and then my pants don't fit. So know that I am rooting for you. You are beautiful and I am sure are looking great!!
