Accountability Mission: No Mercy and No Excuses

Tell the whole truth and be accountable.  How often do you allow ingratitude to interfere with your goals for good health.  Has ingratitude lead you to take liberties that serve no productive purpose? 

I expect you may be waiting for ingratitude to be defined for you.  Well, how it applies to wls or even non surgical wl will vary by individual.  The broadest definition would be repeatedly expressing behaviors that if allowed to persist would result in the opposit of your good health goals. 
-  For example, you loose relatively easily so you frequently stray from plan with the knowledge that you can re loose the added fat again after you've had your fun. 
-  For example, loosing is more difficult for you than for most others so you stray figuring if things are not going your way anyhow then no harm no foul. 
-  For example you decide exercise won't speed weight loss so you'll just skip it unless you must for the scale to move. 

We have been blessed with a multitude of gifts which may include surgical tools, information, guidance and support, second, third, fourth chances etc, and the ability to reason.  The last in this short list is how each of us can define ingratitude for ourselves.  Think about your past month or so.  You know your answer.

I am most definetly guilty of ingratitude.  Fortunately I have kept in in check so it never resulted in weight gain.  However, knowing what I know about my metabolism, I have learned to balance wrong and right so I net to zero.  Totally unacceptable.  Totally disrespectful to my body.  Totally in contradiction of my objectives.

Fat(g) Carbs(g) Fiber(g) Net C(g)  Prot(g) KCals
43.61 24.67 7.6 17.08  107.66 937

It was a very respectable day.  Calories a little on the low side but I'm back to cutting after two days at maintenance levels so its all good.  What's most important is that I followed all of the rules to the letter.  After doing well for a minute, I lost my humility and fell flat on my face; but, I pulled it together after some hours. 

I won't dare say I'm back.  I was never there to begin with.  It is progress not perfection.  

Round two, 7th to 27th.  My goal:
-  Rid myself of unproductive behaviors; and
-  Reinforce behaviors that support life long maintenance


I'm going to approach this with an attitude of gratitude.

I just finished 4 of the Beyonce Move your Body videos, and a bunch of Dance Centra dances.   I am sweating like a freaking pig, my knees are sweating and creaking.  I have gotten so out of shape. 

I get the exercise bug so fast,  I told myself I was not going to do more than a half hour because I know my knees will be killing me and I literally had to make myself stop at a half hour.  So at least I know that even though I haven't really worked out for a while I still have my zeal.  I just have to ease back into it or I will be doing these workouts for hours and be in horrible pain just because they are fun.

I will probably do it again tonight after my class.  Oh I am going to wear jeans tonight because those dam suckers are tight as hell again,  DAMIT after all that work and eating well.  DAMIT.

Beyonce is hawking workouts?  What the hell.  Once you've made a name for yourself you can market just about anything.  Cher and Jane Fonda did it.  No rason why she shouldn't lable herself a fitness guru and get a piece of that pie too.  

Go on and work it girl just choos the workouts that on't cripple you.  Don't make me call you "Cripple Pickle".      Show those knees some luv.

I use to love working out with Jane Fonda. Of course I was young and could do all the moves.  Can't do all of anybody's moves now but I must agree that workouts can get addictive.  Unfortunately for me it hasn't happened yet.  Maybe just not doing it right or long enough.  Anyway, congrats to those of you who just keep goin and goin and goin.

You haven't found the workout you really like yet.  Once you do its all good. 

I'm willing to bet if you raise your daily protein your carbs will fall in line.  Prot fills you faster and keeps you full longer.  For some it helps reduce cravings too.  Sadly not for me.

No Beyonce doesn't have a workout video.  She did this workout video for the Michelle Obama health deal.   Here is a link, it's really fun.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mYP4MgxDV2U&feature=mh_lolz&list=FLqe7ICk0M5pSkDHjX97Eyug

Yeah I had to make myself sit my ass down because I always go galloping into **** like i'm 25 and I need to ease back into it.

I did it six times in a row tonight.  LOL.  Plus a half hour of dance central.  LOL.    I think I want a Wii or Kinetic now cause i'm loving this dancing now.    I go all out when I do it to,  when i'm done I am sweating like a freaking pig and every hair on my head  is soaked,.  LOL LOL

I should not have done it yesterday with my back being out but my back was good tonight and it was great.

When I grow young again or get smaller whichever comes first, I'd like to have your exercise dedication.  Maybe I'll try to do it two times plus a little of this or that.  You will have those jeans baggy in no time at all.
