I'm not calling it that. I think that it will just doom the whole thing to failure. I'm setting a small goal for myself. Nothing more, nothing less. I think I will push myself to lose 20 lbs. I'm not setting a time limit right now, but roughly 2 months I think I can do it, maybe 3 if I get lazy. I'm trying to look at this from a nursing diagnosis point of view. "Client will lose 20 lbs. in 3 months as evidenced by a smaller jean size." I can look at my actions and ask myself if they will help me reach my goal. Such as "Does this double chocolate cupcake get me to my goal, or hinder me from my goal?" I don't see myself saying no to every temptation, but I think limiting how often I give in will help.
I am thinking about the gym with da hubs, but I'm not committing to that just yet. I also want to give myself a long term goal/treat. A really cute shirt or dress (that is several sizes smaller) that I can admire and look at when I am getting lazy. Once I can fit into that shirt or dress, I can say I have really accomplished something. The hard part has been actually finding a shirt cute enough to be given this honor!
Anyway, today was a fun day! Mike, my in-laws, and I went to see The Wizard of Oz at the Apollo theatre in Lincoln Park today. We got tickets from my family as a Christmas gift. Got all the way out there to realize it was a child's play, but it turned out to be really cute and funny. We had a yummy lunch at R.J. Grunts, and then play Just Dance 2 for a couple of hours. It was a pretty good day. Now I just have to get ready for bed because hubby-poo is tired and tomorrow is his first day of 4a.m. wake up time to go exercise!
