Color me frustrated. Something’s gotta give. I have been “at it” workout wise since right after Christmas – I even had a super stellar workout record for the first half of March (worked out 14 out of 16 days – then I went on vacation). Being out of town to the Carolinas/VA Beach followed by a quick trip to NY for Easter has def slowed me down, but still. I’ve been in the mid 190s since JANUARY between 197-192, it’s maddening.

My eating needs to change, I need to really pay attention – I will never be a calorie counter per say, but I’m thinking about Weight Watchers – which I’ve never done, but I’ve following a ton of people on Insta who have had amazing success. 

WIW

Last week: 194.9 

This week: 192.9

PRAISE BIG BABY JESUS! 

I’m working SO hard and to be struggling for 2+ months to get out of the 190s with very little progress has been hella frustrating. 180s – I’m coming!

I need to tighten up the casual beer drinking, plus valentine’s sweets didn’t help.
