Away but not hiding....

It's amazing how quickly time goes by. It's been over two months since my last post. I haven't been hiding or avoiding my blog, I've just been super busy with work. I keep meaning to write something but since I really don't have time to read other blogs I have almost forgotten altogether that I have a my own blog. But the point of this has always been so that I have something to go back and read when I am struggling to remember why I want to lose weight or how hard work pays off. I have basically been maintaining my weight since Christmas. I have stayed in the 160s fluctuating up and down, mostly because I have only been eating well during the week and then sort of chuck it all on the weekend. I would actually be pretty stoked (yes, I said stoked) if I had reached my goal weight and was maintaining but I am still 20lbs from my original goal weight and 40lbs from my 2011 goal weight. So it's time to get serious again. I need to stop dilly-dallying around and lose the rest of this weight, for myself. I am happy with my weight right now, it's so much better than 250, but there is the nagging feeling of failure in the back of my head. I set a completely reachable goal and came within 7 lbs of that goal and 4 months later I have still not reached it. It's time to kick my butt back in gear. I have stayed on track with my running and even started to train for a full marathon so mostly I just need to get through the weekend without eating an entire bag of peanut M&Ms and consuming 2 or 3 venit white mochas. It sounds easy enough....but every weekend it's a struggle, ugh.
