What am I waiting for? (/self pep talk)

138 days until the wedding.
Seriously, why isn't my butt in the gym every second possible?
Do I think that I'll magically drop 25lbs overnight?  Will some weight-loss faerie sneak into my bedroom in the middle of the night and perform liposuction with her magic little wand?

Highly fucking unlikely.
I just gotta get back to the plan, stick with what I know, and deal with it one day at a time.  138 days to fail or 138 days to succeed.  This is all up to me.

I know this isn't a sprint.  I know that the wedding isn't the end of this.  I am just fortunate to have a very good reason to do this right here, right now.

There is a quote I love...

"Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up."

Don't give up! You can totally do this. Refocus, Reinvigorate! Re-prioritize! Success will be yours!

Cheri -- did you click on the link/see the photo? Scary fairy.

Crystal -- thank for the quote. I don't think i'm giving up, but at the same time, I don't think I'm committed as I should be.

LOL at the fairy!

I think you are doing well. Yes like all of us you could be totally over the top about it like you said in the gym every second but you're doing well, you can and will get there!! Hope today is feeling a bit better!

I feel better now that i went for a run last night.
I don't want to live in the gym (I used to spend 3 hours in the gym each night -- 1 hour running, 1 hour weights, .5 hr in the steam room and .5 hr getting changed).

Part of me just knows i can and should be doing more. Not just to lose weight but to gain health and be more active. But I need to remind myself that it's all better than doing nothing.
