Confession

I saw this on pinterest and it was exactly what I needed to remember this morning

I have two confessions to make

1) This weekend I completely lost it.  I don't know what happened but I seriously ate everything I shouldn't and this morning the scale showed it.  It started on Friday!  I spent all morning trying to make a lightened up version of some orange cookies that I have been craving.  They didn't turn out.  I was so disappointed and that night ate a ton of candy while doing a craft with some friends.  Saturday I decided to make cookies I knew would turn out but are probably some of the most fattening ones I could make.  And here is the real kicker....I ate all of them except one that Ron ate between Saturday night and Sunday.  Please someone tell me that they do this too. I honestly don't know what was wrong with me!  Sunday night I also ate a bunch of hot tamales after a healthy dinner. I wish I could say that I had an emotional experience this weekend so I could blame it on emotional eating but honestly I just wanted to eat sweets I guess.

The good news is that I  have a free six day trial to a cross fit gym that I am going to try out this week with a friend.  I really hope that works.  I am staring another meal plan today for the next two weeks.  I will plan on making some healthier treats for me to snack on so I don't go binge on unhealthy treats! My sister in law gave me a healthy cookbook for Christmas and I am really excited to incorporate some of those recipes into my meal plan.  I will definitely be posting pictures and recipes if I like what I cook. 

Confession number 2) I feel like I have become incredibly obsessed with the number on the scale.  The truth is I feel like I have been feeling the opposite of what the picture above says.  I know this is not the case and I know you shouldn't go off of a number on scale when it comes to weight loss but should base it on how you feel but I just cant seem to get away from that.  I also think I am not content with where I am at because I was quite a bit lower this past summer.

If you have any suggestions for me I would love to hear it.  If I resolve this I will definitely let you know how!

I am so excited to be going to cross fit tonight (and lets face it terrified at the same time)  I will definitely be reporting on my first experience with it

p.s. sorry for the downer post.  I will post a few yummy recipes I made this past week that are healthy to make up for it =)
