The reason we struggle with insecurity is because we compare our behind-the-scenes with everyone else’s highlight reel.

Steven Furtick (via fitvillains)

TalesFromTheToadElf has said this phrase to me repeatedly and it is a very true statement. Not a single person on this planet is perfect, it is just that some are better at focusing on what are the more relevant details in life. Like living it and being content with who you are.

Can you tell where the frozen vegetables stop and the frozen, microwaveable, processed crap starts? Look closely - it’s more crowded down there than it may first appear.

What app is this?

This is the app for my Withings scale.  I took screenshots of both weigh-ins, and then put them together with another app (Pic Stitch) to post like that.  The Withings scale is awesome, but pricey.  But hey, how many scales can automatically tweet your weight every time you step on it?  (Follow me on Twitter if you want those annoying Tweets on a regular basis - @jemiller51!)

nevermind 1.5lbs! You’re in the 100s!!! congratttts =]

Thanks!  I have been anxious to get back here.  But my celebration is a little subdued in that I should have never let myself regain that much in the first place.  I was down to basically my all time low at the end of November - 175ish.  But I’m glad to get things moving in the right direction again.

Short Mom: SOS and 4n4 Challenge : Round 2

shortmom:

I’m bringing back the Summer of Scales and 4n4 Challenge.

Summer of Scales = Daily weigh-ins.

4n4 Challenge = A 4% loss in 4 weeks, starting today and ending 6/16.

Starting Weight: 137 , so 4% =~ 5.5 lbs

This goal will help me:

  • Re-learn the habit of correct portion size
  • Not graze all day…

I’m in for 4n4. Thursday’s weigh-in was 201.1, so 4% will be 8 lbs for me. Perfect.

Currently stopped for lunch just past Atlanta. Seriously proud of our eating for the ENTIRE trip. Not gonna worry about the beer. And ignoring that, we did awesome. 

It’s nice to have friends who share the same goals and are mutually supportive. 

On the road again…
