After a nearly three month hiatus, I am finally returning to my blog! It's not that I've gotten completely off track - it's more that I haven't tracked much of what I've been doing and so my journey is lacking in accountability and consistency. Without accountability, it's easy for me to become very lackadaisical rather than focused. The result is I've gained weight rather than lost weight. I've decided I need to get back to tracking my journey - and blogging is one of three components I will be taking on this week. The other two are keeping a food journal and an exercise journal - both of which I will do with Weight Watchers' e-tools. The latter two will begin this Saturday, December 1st - I will be signing up for three months which will get me well into the New Year.
It would be great if I could "do it on my own" without having to write down each morsel, log each mile, and write a self-report on my blog. However, I've tried doing it without all of these, and for me, it just doesn't work. I must have a way to be accountable, if only to myself. I also need support - which I do receive from my family and a few friends, but also via spiritual readings and meditation, which is something that has always helped me overcome any and all challenges in my life.
I will revisit the 100 Day Challenge which is what my blog was based on when I first started it back in January - but I will only dwell on the topics that relate to me. Perhaps by the time I complete the next three months on WW e-tools, I will complete the topics in the challenge. More importantly, I'm hoping that by then I will be well on my way to reaching my personal goals! I will re-state my goals in the coming week - as I need to be reminded as to why I decided to take on this journey.
Since this is a "new beginning", I will not continue the 100 Days Challenge. I will however take on topics from the Challenge that pertain to me as points of discussion.
