Excuses

I've always been one for making excuses... "I am too tired" or, my most commonly used one, "I'm too busy"... with losing weight, excuses have to go out the window.  You can't make excuses and expect to lose weight.  There is no "too tired" or "too busy"... its a constant effort every day.  When I am "too tired" to workout, I think of the final goal and of how skinny and how much healthier I will be.  When I am "too busy" and just want to go get carry-out to eat, I think about how bad it is for both me and my wallet, and I am driven to cook or get something healthy.  Both "too tired" and "too busy" are things I am experiencing all the time in PT school, but I am learning that you have to perservere and be above these excuses in order to see results, both in the classroom (grades) and on the scale (weight loss).

Current weight: 199.6 lbs.
Weight loss to date: 3.0 lbs.

Have a wonderful Tuesday! I will because not only do I get to wear my white coat for the first time (I'm so official!), but I'm also going to the Columbus Blue Jackets vs. Atlanta Thrashers preseason hockey game with a friend :) LETS GO JACKETS! I'm so excited to rep Columbus in Atlanta!
