Here is where I list all the things I did wrong this week to explain the gain the scale showed.
At least, that’s what you’re expecting.
However, I think I shall skip that little pity-party I was going to throw for myself. Instead, I need to wake myself up. I’m stuck on a plateau. I’ve been there for about 6 months now. It’s time to do something about it.
So here’s the deal. I need to track my consumption and exercise. I need something to make me stick to it. Thus, I have a goal in mind with an appropriate consolation prize:
I will track my points (food and activity) every day for the coming week starting tomorrow (which is when I would normally start the new week). The reward is that I know I’ll show a loss next week if I can do just that. The consolation prize? If I fail to record every day this week, I will record a video of myself dancing (without a shirt) and singing to “Never Gonna Give You Up” by Rick Astley and post it on the blog via YouTube. I’m gonna rick-roll myself.
I need something to get myself to stick to this… and preventing public humiliation seems like a good means to an end. The last thing I want to do is be seen like that. I know some twisted part of each of you wants to see me fail. I don’t intend to fail. It’s time to get serious about this way of life.

If that isn’t motivation, I don’t know what is. Maybe I need to do something similar.
