"Patience. I will become what I know I am!"
I need to learn this virtue, I need to embrace it, I need to become it. As far as fitness is concerned I have no patience. I weigh myself on a almost 3 times a day basis. Why? I am totally addicted. But if this is my only addiction currently, I feel like I am safe at dealing with it for a while.
Today, yes today, I did 30 minutes on the elliptical machine. But wait, there's more, 2.53 miles at my highest speed was 7.1 mph. Okay for me who is used to 25 minutes at a max speed of 4.3 mph....that is freaking impressive. (to me anyway)
And during those 30 minutes I never once thought, "I can't do this, I won't make it." I literally just kept going and at one point started chanting random stuff about bathing suits and summer and looking hot!
All in all I feel really good today. I have a lot on my plate today and am going to get going.
Feel free to leave words of encouragement, I always need them!!!

Maybe you should start measuring yourself instead of weighing yourself. Check your inches lost ya know. Anyway, just want you to know that I went to the dr. on Monday and had lost two lbs. from the Monday dr. appt the week before! I can also feel my stomach muscles coming back nicely since I am doing those push-ups everyday. I can now do 10 nose to the floor pushups! I am proud :D You are doing great!!!
Rock on!!!
Sounds like your body has accepted this new normal and is helping you work toward it. Take that motivation and go with it. Push more.
