"Here I go again on my own"

Fitting, since I feel like I am all alone in this world of fitness. I keep starting, doing well and then stopping. And I realize that if I just would stick to it at least one time I might just be at my goal, and wearing my VS swimming suit this summer. Instead of hiding behind my t-shirt with bathing suit.

But here is my new goal. I am going home to visit family in mid-August. Which means I have 59 days to drop 31 lbs. I can do it. I need to stick to a strict diet and a strict workout regime. Which is hard for me because my knee and ankle are hurting lately. But I really just need to look past it and do what I can.

I need to do a lot of research and find exactly what foods I need to eat and stay away from. It is hard for me because I bake goodies for a living. I am not a huge cake fan, but my sugar cookies are amazing and that is a really big temptation for me. I always have to make extra to give cookies and goodies to my children. I just need to learn a little self control. I will get there, just takes time.

My parents have a hot tub and I want to be able to get into it without feeling weird in a bathing suit. I might still wear a cover, but at least not feel so bad about it all. I want to be able to wear the clothes that I currently have in my closet to the house. Not be stuck in t-shirts and jeans all the time. Which is what I have been having to wear lately.

I can do this! I can get there!!!! Just give me time and sup
