Stuck and Stars

It’s been a while since I wrote anything here. I haven’t exactly felt like sharing, I still don’t, but I figure it’s high time to get some of the thoughts out of my head, if for no reason other than to make room for new ones.



This time last year I was 2 weeks in to round one and feeling great, I was losing weight, I was working out everyday, I was eating fairly well, this year I’m stuck. I feel like a shalump, I have no motivation to get up and do anything, I have reasons that should be motivating me, and yet I continue to sit on the couch with my bag of insert junk food here. I need to come up with a plan for a thinner decade and stick to it, I’m just not sure how, what really had me so motivated last year and so sedentary this year. Was it just the competition? Was my will power so much greater then? Or was I just happier? Maybe it’s a combination of all of it. So what is my plan of attack? Not a clue. I need to get back into a rhythm, purge ALL of the junk food from my house and get my butt moving. Is it silly to bring back the old star chart? List all my weekly/daily goals and every time I do it give myself a star? Does 20 stars = a pedicure? 40? It’s an idea ….
