I had a light bulb moment as I was watching Extreme Makeover Weight Loss Edition - I have really put in the effort to truly lose weight. I was watching Rachel tonight and she worked her butt off to lose that weight. I put in maybe 30 minutes of half assed effort. I really need to step up my game if I'm going to lose any weight. I've read that when you are as overweight as I am you need to workout 2 hours a day to maintain a weight loss I wonder if this is true.
I know I've watched the Biggest Loser for years but for some reason it actually clicked tonight how much time and effort these people put in to lose weight. I need to have that dedication. Of course I know that it's not realistic to work out as much as they do on Biggest Loser because that is their full time job for 8 hours a day. I don't have that kind of time and I don't think it's healthy at least at home. They have trainers and medical personnel that monitor them all of the time. I do however think that I need to work harder than I have been. I will admit I do dog my workouts - just because I can, so I know I can work harder.
I haven't started my no eating out anymore yet. I will start tomorrow. I know that I'm always saying tomorrow and tomorrow never comes but I am determine to make tomorrow the day. I need to clean out the fridge before I go to bed tonight, I think that will help.
I also think I need to see a foot doctor about my pain in my foot. That gives me an excuse for not working out as hard as I could if it wasn't hurting. The truth is I can barely walk after my workout, but I doesn't really hurt all that must during the workout. I need to take away that excuse.
