Weigh In Wednesday

So I swear unless the scale in the gym changed drastically from Monday night I've lost like 2.5 pounds to be at 141.5 pounds. That's just crazy I mean seriously. Probably all just water weight and I didn't eat very good today so damn.

So my big problem I have decided is consistency. Please anyone let me know how to stay consistent with my workouts I feel like everytime I go to the gym I just do random things and it doesn't add up to anything that creates results. I think a big issue too is that I just need to drastically reduce calories as well. UGH trying to lose weight just really sucks. I know that I'm worth it though. I deserve to look amazing on my vacation and I'm not going to do that by avoiding the gym like I did tonight and eating chocolate instead. Damn it............

I will go tomorrow though. I'm trying to slowly get back into running because I've been out of it for so long. 20 minutes on the treadmill felt like torture on Tuesday though so I think the key is for me to run outside. It keeps it a little more interesting right? Too bad the air is so polluted that it's like smoking a pack a day even though I don't. I will probably leave Kosovo with a black lung but all in the name of running outside right?

I'm seriously considering buying a Bodybugg or something like it because it is so hard for me to judge the amount of calories I'm eating and burning in a day. It would definitely help with weight loss for sure. $150 though.............why can't I just naturally be skinny and in shape. My genetics suck I'll blame it on that and not the beer I drink.

Short term goals for next week for the Spring Shape Up Challenge:
Lose 1 pound
Drink 2 liters of water per day
Continue with my food journaling (this was a random thing I started in the last week and it seems to be helping a lot)
Resist the urge to eat all the chocolate in my room
Do cardio 4-5 times, weight training 2-3
Find something that is going to keep me motivated to lose weight.
