Funny How Tone Can Change From Post to Post!

UGH. I know this pretty much should have been expected after the magical pound-a-day for four days thing, but damn it sure is annoying! After I posted my last one about being 230, I was 230 for another day or two... then I was 229! And then I was 230 again for a few days... And now I've been 231 for a few days... GRRRR. Knock it off!!!

In all fairness, I can't really just yell at the scale. I obviously have some blame in this as well. I've lacked some serious motivation over the last week or so. Seriously. I ran yesterday... And the last time I had run prior to that was last Friday. AWEFUL. And it isn't even like I could feel less bad about it from step at school, because we haven't actually started doing aerobics yet! That'll happen tuesday... Actually very stoked about that. BUT. The point is, I hadn't exercised all week. BAD. And then I made some choices with food that weren't quite so fabulous. Not super god-aweful like it could have been, but still. Pretty bad.

My motivation has just seemed to take a little vacation, which really sucks. I do not want to sit here *almost* halfway to my goal, *almost* out of the 230s... *almost*.... You get it. That's just screwed up. And naturally I am the only one to be blamed for it! I just... Need to get my motivation back in line with the things I think in my head. Blegh.

Hopefully a silly little event from today will help with that! I had to go to the mall so I could buy like... two things so I would actually be able to have workout clothes both at school and at home, and I was in Pennys, and they had swimsuits on sale! Like... Rediculous sale. So I had to go look, because I keep thinking it would be nice to have a goal suit, just for fun. God only knows what my actual size will be come next summer... It's just something cute to look at and daydream about while I run. At least... That's the plan. LOL. So I actually found something really cute that I liked, and each piece was only $4.85! :D Same with the workout bottoms I bought. SUPER cheap! Definitely can't complain there. And the sports bra I bought at sears was like 1/2 off, too. Very nice!

So pretty much I'm hoping that with real exercise starting in Step this next week along with having a silly motivational bathing suit to hopefully get me back on track with running, I'll get back on track all around again. This is just a little bump in the road that I need to get over for a little more smooth sailing. :)

You didn't really think I'd leave you without a picture of the super cute goal suit, did you?? Here it is! On my kitchen counter, no less... LOL. Only place with decent light! And I didn't feel like using my real camera. Yay for iPhone!
