The struggle is real.

So I've gained back the 10 pounds that I was trying to lose but didn't lose all the way. Let's use real numbers here since that last sentence may not actually make sense. 

I had gotten to 145 and got it down to 137 and now I'm back at 145. I can't deal with 145 because that's too close to 150. People who are 5' 2" do not look healthy in the 150s. Sigh. 

Now to focus on nutrition because my workouts are just helping me to maintain and not lose. 

I've been posting my food (and my cats) on Instagram as a form of accountability. There's some great weight watcher accounts that I follow and maybe if I'm photographing my food prior to eating I'll do better. 

I'm considering banning dairy again. I love the 18 grams of protein in my Greek yogurt. Maybe dairy isn't my friend though. So this blog will continue to be another source of (frustration) accountability towards my goal of losing weight. Maybe I can get into the shorts before summer is over. 

Happy Friday!

I've been running and thinking about training for the Route 66 half marathon. It's in November so I have tons of time. 

I've been filling my Instagram with food and I wonder why I've gained weight. I'm at 145, which is too high. Cue the higher intensity at the gym and cutting snacks. 

I'll be getting rid of bananas. They've been mushy and gross. I can't deal with that. Maybe I need to cut the weekly shake too. 

Commitment can be hard at times. So happy Friday friends. I'll be drinking beer or something while I ponder the slow rise in my waste line.
