As you fellow WLSers are my support system when all others have failed, I have a confession to make. Over the last few months when I thought I was maintaining and thus not keeping good track of my intake and in addition slacking off on my exercise I have unfortunately allowed 10 lbs to sneak back on. I stepped on the scale yesterday and was dismayed at what I had done. I could offer all sorts of excuses but really, as you all know, there are few that are really valid and I don't have a single valid excuse other than stupidity, ignorance and just plain laziness.
That being said, I jumped back on the "wagon" yesterday, have restarted my food journal, started hydrating correctly, and climbed aboard my incline trainer. Yesterday, I only did 10 minutes and then gave myself the right to step off. Today, feeling more in control I managed to walk/jog diamond head trail on my incline trainer. I ended up with an overall speed of 19 min mile and did the 1.5 -/+ trail.
I leave for the OCC in 5 weeks and don't want to have to be ashamed of myself in the presence tense when I get there.
Thanks for listening.
