Footprints on the Moon

I completely forgot about my self portrait post yesterday until I was getting ready to climb into bed, and I couldn’t be bothered to mess with it then. So you get Self Portrait Monday instead!

I’m also due to give you this week’s progress report on Weight Watchers. Eh, it wasn’t good. I struggled to make good decisions all week, I didn’t eat much for fruits and veggies even though I had a fridge full of good options. I was busy, and I just failed to make good choices. I was technically still on plan, but not really. And that showed up in a .2 gain for the week. I’m doing my best not to let it get me discouraged. I went to the grocery store last night to pick up some new fruit and to get some stuff for dinners to have at home this week.

I’m learning that this is not a quick weight loss diet, but slow and steady wins the race. I don’t need to get it all off tomorrow, I just need to get it off. It threw me for a loop yesterday and I made poor choices through lunchtime out of frustration, but I got it back under control for dinner and have started today out on a better foot.

It’s definitely much easier to tell someone else that it’s okay than it is to take your own advice, that’s for sure!

Either way, I’m still 11.6 lbs lighter than I was when I started, and that’s a good thing.
