HOLD MY FEET TO THE FIRE! ACCOUNTABILITY TUESDAY
Accountability Mission: No Mercy and No Excuses
Tell the whole truth and be accountable. Have you counted your blessings this week? Have you asked yourself if ingratitude has interfered with your goals for good health? Have you been ungrateful enough to take liberties with your plan? Liberties that can serve no productive purpose?
While it will vary by individual, a broad definition of ingratitude would be repeatedly expressing behaviors that if allowed to persist would result in the opposit of your health goals. The opposit leads us right back where we started.
Keep moving forward folks. Be greatful for this opportunty. Don't waste it. Have no regrets.
...All are welcome, jump in at anytime.

LV'N MY RNY. WORKING FOR ME BECAUSE I WORK FOR IT.
Its barely dinner time in some places. I expect the morning to suck @$$ so I'm putting tomorrow's accountability out here early. My reply is always for the previous day so here it is as well.
While I'm not yet done, saying it out loud will force me to stay on plan tonight. I'm pretty certain of where I'm going to land. Not a bad day. Good protein and luv'n both total and net carbs.
Monday
These days I'm doing better at meating my goals. I won't declare myself succesful just yet. Experience has taught me this is step one in creating my own personal clusterfkcu.
Eight days remain in this 21 day plan:
- Rid myself of unproductive behaviors; and
- Reinforce behaviors that support life long maintenance
I'm doing this.

It is 9:25pm and man do I feel amazing. I didn't know how much my body missed exercise. I did some more of the Dance Central videos and Beyonce. I was only suppose to do 30 minutes but I did 40, it's just to much fun. My back is killing me and I just took a vicodin, my back is out it's not from the exercise it has been out for the whole day but I worked out anyway.
Becca just told me that she is tried of her jeans being tight and so am I, so we have made a committment to get our act together. She wants to be down 20 pounds by December and I would like to be 30. Praying for miracles. LOL

Liberties - let's not go there. I took so many unfruitful liberties Monday that it was too many to mention, i.e. eating a whole bag of ginger snaps less ten, eating a half bag yogurt pretzels. Did I take my vits and drink my water? Yes. Did I feel really STUPID for being carb crazy? Yes is the nicest way to put it. Did I learn? Definitely.
Today went this way, I got low, low, low, low, low, low, low.
Vitamins, Water and 30 minutes exercise was included in my low carb, high protein menu for today. I am so happy with myself. My foolishness of yesterday did not carry over to this day.
Now I pray to remain on the low carb path. Yes they will get higher than today but really gonna try to keep them low. I can't say it enough all calories are not created equal, at least not with my body.
Hope all of you have a great Tuesday and a better Wednesday.
Today went this way, I got low, low, low, low, low, low, low.
