No one said this was going to be easy

So yesterday afternoon I was tired and almost ready to bag going to the gym. Then From Yawn to Come Hither nominated me for a Thinking Blogger Award! This provided me with enough motivation to get myself to the gym. Her blog is super awesome and is one of my daily reads. I will be nominating 5 others when I get back from Denver, so be on the lookout for that when I get back from my trip.

So I went to the gym for 35 minutes and walked on the treadmill. Nothing fancy, but I made it there.

I have been thinking a lot about how my motivation to lose weight and become healthy has changed in the almost 3.5 years I have been at this weight loss thing. When I started I was pretty strict, yet counting points was so easy. Now I am not counting points and not really losing weight either. I think I need to get back to the mentality I had when I first started. What was this mentality? I counted everything! Now I am not saying where I am out now is a bad place, I just feel I could be doing a little better. In fact I know I can do better.

I feel really lucky to have found some great bloggers over the past few months and I am super excited to get to let them know how much they mean to me, so watch out for a post on Monday!

Have a great weekend!

Sometimes I wish that I could find my original motivation, where I lost 47 pounds. But I had a reason: that was before my wedding. And, now, I have a reason that it found me: I am lazy.
Hope you have a great time in Denver!
