!['04/17/17 Day 34 Extreme Accountability Challenge Total weight loss to date 29.6 pounds Only down 2/10th's of a pound!! I have to be honest I'm a little disappointed. Yesterday was Easter, normally I'm finding my way into the candy, eating a big meal that would be enough to feed a small village in a 3rd world country, then snacking on leftovers until I pass out from a carbohydrate induced coma. Not yesterday, it was picture perfect eating for the guy that posts his weight on Facebook everyday. Planned fuelings designed by my health coach @[750842319:2048:John Davisson], then the big Easter feast. Broiled flounder, asparagus, sauteed spinach, and salad with some no calorie dressing. I was amazing, and all I lost was a measly 2/10th's of a pound? That's what the 3 year old inside of me wants to say, but I know better. First, normally I would be up 2 to 3 pounds, beating myself up today for what I ate on Easter and asking myself when would I ever lose this weight? Here's another reality, as I've said before, I averaged a weight gain of 1/2 pounds per month since I was 20 years old. That's 8 ounces of fat per month for the last 35 years! Actually what happened yesterday was that I did everything by the plan, I lost weight at a pace that is 12 times faster than I gained in the previous 35 years and I stayed on plan, no sneaking candy, no " it's Easter I can get back on plan tomorrow", the truth is I did amazing!! But isn't that just so telling, when we are heading in the wrong direction it seems so hopeless and fast that we are declining (even though often it's slower than we think), but then when we make the turn we can't get there fast enough. It's this 3 year old inside of me, and probably you as well, that just left the neighborhood for a 100 mile trip with Mom and Dad asking, "ARE WE THERE YET?" Whatever you're struggling with, stay the course, the battle is for inches, that you will eventually realize turned into miles. If you aren't making progress losing weight on your own.
