"The size of your success is measured by the strength of your desire; the size of your dream; and how you handle disappointment along the way."
- Robert Kiyosaki
Unfortunately this post isn't going to start off in a lighthearted manner this morning. Today is my weigh-in day...I'm disappointment to say that I have gone up a pound. While Keith says perhaps its from water retention, increased muscle mass or even the humidity (others before me today also went up a pound), I'm chalking it all up to I didn't try hard enough and there were too many carbohydrates.
Today, tomorrow and the next day I will be going back to my menu I received at the first and carbohydrates will only be consumed in fruit form as well as in small ways at breakfast and lunch. Thirty was an important number for me to hit and the disappointment I felt and feel now needs to propel me forward. This is only a failure if I let this get to me and I don't make the needed changes.
I've spent a few moments crying in the office, my car and on my drive into Saint John. In a little while I will be moving my ass up out of this chair and going to workout. As my Aunt Avis says "Giver er hell."
This will be the last time I do this - apologize to myself - I'm sorry. I will be better.
