How come Chris Tucker could be so hilarious as Smokey in "Friday" but so mediocre in the Rush Hour movies that made him his money?
I weighed myself this morning and it was not pleasant. Hairbrushes were broken. No, just kidding, but there was no change from the last couple of weeks. I actually was just pleased I hadn't gained weight, considering I have been so damn inconsistent. I tend to range from super-awesome to super-binge with eating habits. One thing I am very consistent about is NOT exercising ;P So there's something...
But, anyway, I am getting myself together, I am just not ready to have my light-bulb turning point moment today. What am I missing that is keeping me from doing those little things every day to get to the place I want to be? Matt is reading a book called "The Slight Edge" right now that talks about how it is so easy to do the little steps each day to reach a goal (whether it is financial, health/eating habits, nutrition, learning, etc.), but that at the same time it is so easy to NOT do those little steps each day. There is a continuous battle that rages in your mind as you decide each moment, each hour, each day, whether to do those tiny little steps that don't show you the results immediately, but over time, will lead to the big results you want. I seem to be at the point where not doing the little steps is winning much more often than doing the little steps. I guess it isn't so much a light-bulb rock-bottom thing as a baby steps thing. Now where's my pacifier.

hi friend, so I think about this all the time...esp. considering I lost weight one time, then gained it and it has been inconsistent for like a year now...except weight gains...I think for me there is a reason I have this battle. I use food for pleasure, emotions, etc..I notice that sugars and doughy-ness really sets me off..so I am on a journey to discover how to deal with the world, my emotions..etc...good luck and if you ever want to talk or feel yourself on a downward spiral of consumption please call me. I am here for you.
hang in there... we're all in the same boat together. Like you said, the little steps are the easiest to not do. just don't let one or two slip-ups throw off the rest of your day, or week, or year.
