Time to Get Real – Week of April 22

I’ve decided to be happy about this week.

With all the craziness in my life of an upcoming in person job interview (if you’re wondering why I’m making such a big deal about this it’s simple.  This is a 3 day visit “interview”.  I’ll meet with several individuals plus group meetings.  It’s a big deal and something of a marathon experience) plus all the weight loss snares that come with Easter.

So when I stepped on the scale it was much better than I’d feared.  At the same time I’m not making any real progress.  So I had to make a decision about how to approach this.  I came through another week of spotty eating and inconsistent exercise.  I came through the stress issues that are only going to get worse this week.  I came through Easter.

And I actually lost a fraction of a pound.  Which puts me back at the half way point again.

That’s pretty freaking amazing.

I’d really like to start moving again though.

My resolution:

Time to name the next goal.  I like them to be reasonable and achievable for my short term goals (the long term one is at the bottom here).  So we take it five pounds at a time.  185, I’m looking at you.
