August 31st

Weight in at 178 lbs! (it's not official Weigh In day for me, but I needed to for the August Challenge. I am the same I was two weeks ago, total loss 4 lbs this month. Which is kinda a joke, because I have been bouncing back and forth around the 180's for almost a couple of months now. (July 9th I was 183lbs), so not much accomplished just dancing around in circles).
Last day off a never-ending long lasting month, and I do feel a bit like a loser. It seems I have not accomplished much in getting closer to my weight loss goal. I did notice though that whenever I set "I want to lose xx in xx weeks" I fail. Setting those short term weightless goal don't work for my head. I wanted to lose so badly another ten and be only 5 away from goal by this upcoming wedding I pretty much lost none, but rather bounced back and forth. I found myself saying, every time after I blew it "tomorrow I still have so and so many weeks, I can accomplish that". Unfortunately I have been doing this for an entire month it seems. I know I should be grateful that I kept the weight in check and didn't gain by keeping up with everything else. But still the negative always seems to have the power over my overall outlook on things.
Well, I set goal for September and none of them are weightless goals, but rather better behavior goals. Of course I am hoping this will then result in weight loss, but I need to shift my focus on other things. Today and tomorrow I am on my own with home projects. I have a lot to do. First I have to paint all the crown molding so they dry before DH cuts them and we hangs them up and the entire room needs to get a coat of glaze over the paint we put on yesterday.
