Day 64 Extreme Accountability Challenge
Starting weight 304 pounds
Destination weight 175 pounds
Total weight loss to date 46.6 pounds
82.4 pounds to go
The long haul. That’s what runs through my mind this morning as I still have over 82 pounds yet to lose. In the past I would have looked at the 46 pounds that I’ve already lost and convinced myself that I have come a long way and I can live with that 46 pounds lost and go back to my old way of eating and living and I would have started my usual assent up in weight.
Last night was hard, it was a great opportunity to go the wrong direction, late business appointment, almost an hour drive home, exhausted, eating dinner at 10pm. My emotional tank was empty, that’s normally when as I wind down that I turn to food. Not this time, not ever again. I knew that I was posting my weight this morning, I poured myself another glass of water with lemon, my drink of choice, and walked away from the temptation.
Accountability is powerful. It changes behavior, that’s really the need here, the food is neutral, the behavior has been my problem. Thanks for holding me accountable.
Press forward.
175 pounds here I come!!!
