Jenny Week 4 Photo

So I was about to have one of my classic freak out moments that typically ends with my burying my face in a bag of Mini Reeses Cups while curled up in the fetal position.

No change in my stats this week, except weight went up.  What am I? A total colossal failure of epic proportions? Someone who can't stick to anything she tries? Worthless?  Stupid? Completely lacking in self control and willpower?  Look at that fat tummy! LOOK AT IT.  Does THAT kind of MUFFIN TOP belong to someone who isn't a FAILURE?

Well, yes, cause that's my muffin top.

See, the thing is, I'm just not putting my all into this right now.  I'm not failing, I'm just not really trying.  This past week, we had fast food like...four times. I haven't stuck to my running schedule.  I've worked out, yeah, but I've also eaten terribly.  Because of that, I've been exhausted and grumpy.

I need to get my ass in gear and actually stick to my plans and hold myself accountable.

And, tbh, I've noticed changes.  I do sit straighter and I can do more crunches and planks.  I can pull myself up on the pole and grip a lot better than last week.  This is good stuff, and a trend I want to continue.

This is Day 23 of my #fitstreak (though a few days have been token weights or something).  Next week, I'll have done 30 days and will move on to something else--maybe focusing on running more.  I think I might make a schedule for myself and really stick to it.  Next week, I'll post it and see what it ends up looking like.

One of the things Kat challenged us to in the last class I had with her was to make one good change in your diet this week.  She gave a bunch of suggestions, and what I want to do is remove or severely cut down on snacking.  If I DO snack, it must be nuts, fruits, or veggies.  NO CHIPS OR COOKIES OR CRACKERS.

We'll see if that works, heh.
