Bad Attitude

I’ve got a bad attitude right now. Not about what I’m doing, in terms of losing weight — I’m pretty much on schedule with where I want to be and my exercising. I’m still pretty much motivated to do what I need to do, although I fall off the wagon every so often.

This past weekend is a good example of that. Did some popcorn at the movies on Saturday (Iron Man was the movie [great, BTW], and the amount of popcorn wasn’t nearly as much as it usually is). Dinner that night was pizza. Next day we did a pretty good breakfast, but then blew it with a Mexican dinner. Oh well.

My weight has been fluctuating up and down some (this past weekend excluded), and I may know why. I’m thinking it may be too few calories from my Smart for Life diet. I’ve already adjusted it for increased exercise, but maybe it is not enough.

But that’s not the main reason for the ‘tude. I think I’m on “accountability-overload.” I’m already accountable to this blog, my Turbulence Training postings (for the Transformation Contest I’m in) and the S4L doctors. Plus my wife and I talk about weight all the time. It feels like it is consuming my life, and I’m beginning to resent it. Although writing about it here is definitely helping.

I’m sure I’ll be back on the stick and feeling fine soon. Just a phase, I imagine. Thanks for listening.
