ACT don't react

144, still, well actually my scale this morning said 139.5, but I can not believe that number for one second. Although I would love to know that I am 139.5! It would put me on par to where I want to be for my Nov mini goal of 140! Ok, well lets see my goal was for Nov 27th, Anyone think I can lose 4lbs in less than 2 weeks? Maybe if I work hard I actually can!

"A life of reaction is a life of slavery, intellectually and spiritually.
One must fight for a life of action, not reaction."

Ok, so this makes me go a little crazy inside. I feel like i have been on the path of reaction when it comes to my weight loss efforts and it is starting to get to me!

Case and point:
My mom bought my munchkin a hat from the circus but it came with cotton candy... last night I ate cotton candy. BAD BAD BAD!!!

But seriously I am having a reacting nature to everything. My daughter didn't finish something so I will eat it. BAD BAD BAD! I ate prob 250 Cal yesterday because of my reactions!

Another fatal reaction that I had was, I told myself I couldn't go for a walk cause my daughter needed to nap... WELL HELLO.. she could nap in the stroller while I walk! I must be losing my mind! I am going for a walk today, no matter what!

I must stop reacting and start acting! I want to meet my Nov goal! I have 4lbs to go and even if I say Dec 1, that is 2 weeks away! I can do this! I know I can, NO MORE REACTIONS! NO MORE EXCUSES! I am sick of being 144! I am sick of looking at the scale every week and seeing the same thing! Today when I saw the numbers 139.5, I kind of got excited, I really wanted to belive it. I couldn't help knowing that if I have been making the right choices I would be there already!

I also have to get my butt on here more, I have to blogg/logg everything I am doing. I have been a major slacker! I am not going to do that any more, just cause I fit into my cloths now doesn't mean I am where I ultimately want to be. I'm getting to comfortable! I need a structure to keep me in line! I have 9 more lbs to lose thats it! Its not a monster its not such an arduous task. (ok how come I can spell arduous right the first time but can't spell ultimately right??) I can make better choices

such as:
Go for a walk more than once a week!
throw out that cotton candy when I get home
DO NOT SNACK!!!!
Don't fall pray to my daughter's left overs
calcount.com people! uhhh so frustrating!
Drink more water( I have been doing great but some days I completely slack )
Take my vitamins!!! (I'm runnin low on e-mergen-c so I have been slacking on my calcium and b vitamins- Without them I know I can't function GET WITH IT CHUPSIE!!!!)
Work out! 3 times a week(Hubby is getting me EA Active 2, It has 30 new workouts added! we aren't going to get it till this weekend but it should be a motivator.)

I know I have been telling myself for weeks to work out, and every time I don't work out I make no progress! I have to do 4 workouts a week, either workout or go for a walk, Something! I mean even if its walking 4 days a week I have no problem with that. I would love to be outside, just thinking or not thinking at all, its peaceful and I know my daughter loves it too. Well anyway today I will be going for a walk and enjoying my walk! I will try to make it over an hour. Hubby is sick again, so being out of the house would be great for me and the munchkin....

I have a plan of action I will be acting today! tada! yea, maybe not that kind of acting but I will be active in what I do today, I will take a nice long walk, I will take extra care to log my cal and to steer clear of extras!

WISH ME LUCK! I SURE NEED IT!
