No Room for Negativity

Day 11

I'd lay odds that if everyone reading this blog really thought about it, you could name at least one person in your life that just isn't good for you. Why is it so easy for us to get bogged down in other people's crap? I wish I knew the answer to that question. If I did, I wouldn't have had trouble falling asleep last night. And, I'd have an easier time writing this post tonight. I've been through about three versions of this post and they were all a bit negative in scope.

I've got no room for negativity these days so I threw them out in favor of sharing good news. Week One Weigh In is 243.5. That's a 3.5 pound loss! I made it through a difficult night and day without comforting myself with food. And, I got up at 6 am this morning to work out with Jillian Michaels (who, by the way, may be the devil!). I'd say that makes for a pretty great day. The icing on my healthy cake today is a dinner with a vendor that was totally and completely on plan.

One thing I know is certain... tonight, I will sleep like a baby.

Cheers!
Margaret

  1. Congrats on getting through the vendor dinner. I know the thought of the dinner had freaked you out in the beginning, but it sounds like you made it through like a trooper that we all know you are. WAY TO GO!!! Also, congrats on the weight loss. I know that some of those "negative" people may question why you are doing all of those to have only lost 3 pounds in a week. For those of us who need to drop a few pounds (or for me, a lot of pounds), we can attest to the fact that 3 pounds in a week is something to get excited about. Afterall, considering your goal of 25 pounds in 12 weeks, then you are actually ahead of the game! Keep up the great work, Margaret. I'm really excited for you.
