Slow to Change

Hello!  I hope this finds you well.  As I sit here and write I've been thinking of a pattern that has been developing in my weight loss journey.  Though I've been losing, or at least, maintaining my weight I haven't been losing as much as I could.  I find that I've fallen into a pattern with my exercise.  Though I've been pretty good with what I've been eating and my portions, I haven't been doing as much as I can when it comes to exercising. 

I think that part of it is that I've been sick.  First, a couple of weeks ago, it was a double ear infection.  This week my doctor said I had strep, and now I think allergies are kicking in, (thank you cedar fever!).  However, it seems that I don't go to the gym the first part of the week and then at the end of the week I really hit it hard.  I suppose now that I've seen the pattern I can work towards changing it.  I guess some things are just slower to change than others.

In other updates, I tried something that I saw on Pinterest that I had pinned onto my Motivation board!  Here's the results:

One is for the pounds that you've already lost while the other one is for the pounds you have left to lose.  Each stone is a pound.  It's a good visual and helps to put your goal into a bit more perspective.  Plus, it's a daily reminder of the work I have left to do to reach my goal.  I look forward to the day when the jars look the opposite of each other!

Well, that's about all for the moment.  Until I blog again!
