Motivation

Motivation can come from the strangest places, and it can come from the most common of places, and I'm not sure where I've gotten my latest breath of motivation from.   I do know that flipping through the channels last night and stopping on the Biggest Loser weigh ins and seeing people who weigh less than I do, look (in my mind) incredibly larger.   It was a bit of a shocker, and wake up.  

So this morning I step on the scale for the first time in months, and see that I have depressingly gained 19 lbs.  WoW.  and that is only since November.   I've been fooling myself thinking that I have only gained a lb or 2 and that you don't need to weigh in frequently, but holy schnikes.  19 lbs.   That's a 10 week set back.  Atleast!  Not to mention the time lost that I could have been under 300 lbs by now if I had just stuck to the plan.

Where did I go wrong?  I keep thinking back to where it all fell apart, and as ridiculous as it is, I think it was Gaming.   And playing World of Warcraft, initially.  Though I'm not even playing it as much, but that's because I'm busier than ever playing Minecraft and doing a podcast, The Shaft, and it's given me an excuse of not having time to do what I need to do.

Anyways, I think I'm motivated.  How's that for being sure.   I guess I'm snake bitten by myself of thinking I've been motivated in the past, and then fizzling out.  Oh well.  Time to start again.   I hope someone else out there can start again with me.   More on that later.  Let's see if I'm still motivated tomorrow.
