So apparently I have bursitis in my left shoulder. Which means no heavy exercise (ie no Jillian) for at least two weeks. The doctor said I can do cardio but to pretty much leave my arm alone. Just one more excuse....arrrrgggghhh!!!
I guess the way I was approaching things wasn't working anyway (not watching calories but increasing the exercise) so now it's time to switch the approach to watching the calories and walking/running when I can.

"It's okay. I'll do better tomorrow."
That seems to be my motto as of late....and it's not a good thing. I just don't want to eat right. I decided a long time ago that a majority of weight loss success is having the mental commitment to doing it and I just don't have that right now. At my weigh in this morning, I "should" have been around 138. Instead, I was 144. Yeah, not good. I had decided to focus more on fitness which I have definitely increased, but not to the point it should be.
My eating...has been horrendous! And it's all mental. I'm not even hungry. I just see something yummy and think I have to have it. So I eat it. Solution? Don't eat it. Sounds easy. But it isn't. The thing that really stinks is that I can't even define a "trigger." A lot of people can say they eat because of this, this or this and they just need to get past their demons to get past their desire to eat. Me? I just like food. A lot.
So, I need to better. And I'll get right on that....starting tomorrow... :P

More official weigh in
Okay, so today is weigh in #2 but probably more like #1. I was 140.2 this morning. Not bad. I did gain from last time but remember I was sicker than a dog and lost like 5 pounds in 24 hours! I haven't been watching my calories like I should but I am trying to cut back on how much I am eating. Seems to be working. I have added exercise back into the routine. That is key for me. Right now, I really, REALLY need to tone back up. So that is my focus. I would like to lose a few pounds in the meantime (6 to be exact, in the next 6 weeks). But my main focus right now is exercise.
