It seems that I have been pretty good at maintaining my weight for the last several weeks. I usually eat all of my points then "splurge"on something fun for dessert. Or like the other day, I had a fun pancake breakfast with my family and nephews who were over for the night. I feel good in knowing that it has not been as hard as it has in the past.
Something is aching at me (besides the heartburn/gas I have right now). I know what it is. (I want to lose those last 3 pounds.) I know what to do about it. (I have to write it down.) I know that I want to start on this 3 days ago. I don't know why I continue to let the weekends get "away from me". I know better.
I know that tomorrow morning I am going to get my journal out again. (I put it away after the week that Rose challenged me to write it down.) So, why do I feel like my drive is gone? I am not sure what I need to do to get out of this funk. ......
For years I went through this every March/April where I question what I do for a living. Am I being effective as an educator? Am I making a difference in people's lives? Should I be doing something else with my life, if so, what? I think that this attitude has carried over into my WW job too. No worries, I will get over it. I will be ok. It will take a short period of time. I have not had this feeling since I have had my new teaching job. Until last week. Now I question everything.
And of course, as you know, it also effects how I take care of myself. It effects how I eat. It effects my weight. It effects how I treat my children.
So, the question of the day.....what to do about it? I think I might have the answer....

GET A GOOD NIGHT'S SLEEP. Sleep is soooo important in everything we do from trying to lose weight to simply being functional.
Good night.
Love in Losing,

Be motivated through me!! I have one pound, 1, 1.0 to go. Get excited with me! I'm going to need your help with maintenance. I've never been to this stage of the WW journey before, and I'm both excited and nervous. I think when I come to weigh-in this saturday, I'll wear my goal shirt which says "Lifetime in 2009".
Tracey!!!!I am sooo excited for you. I know you will get there this weekend.AND I also know you will do maintenance just fine. It has been easier for me this time than the last. I think it is because I am determined to keep it off this time. Last time I just wanted to make goal. Once I did, I did not have anything else to strive for, you know what I mean?
Good for you. See you Saturday...
