Adversity Thursday: Meet a Goal but Don't Lose Motivation

As of Monday, I have lost 20 lbs total....!!!!  I am so excited about it!  However, I have lost 20 pounds on more than one occasion.  Its awesome!  Every time, I feel better and am so pleased with myself for doing it.  So what is the adversity in this?

That is pretty much the amount of weight that I have lost at one go.  That has been my peak.  For the most part, I wound up getting pregnant after 20 pounds, so the continued weight loss was not really an option.  So now that this little mini-goal is met, I have to refresh the motivation and continue to lose weight.

I'll be honest... I mean, this is an Honest Weight Loss project.  I have been slacking greatly in all areas of my program.  Now that two months are nearly complete of the program, I need to make a change to make it exciting again.  A new workout?  Maybe.. I've been doing a new workout almost every week.  I think that most difficult thing for me last week was my lack of sleep.  Which I'm happy to report that last night, I went to bed at 9!!  That's a record in a long long time.

So maybe I need to look more towards my diet.  I am sure that most of you have heard about detox cleanses right?  Well, maybe that would be a good way to put a jolt in my body.  It is already getting comfortable with my current routine... and frankly, I'm not giving in at 20 pounds down.  I have 80 more to go!

What are your thoughts about fasting cleanses?  I'm seriously considering it after Thanksgiving.  I'd love your feedback about it.  I'll let you know what I find out about it.  Here is the website that I have been reading.  Check it out.

Thoughts?  Comments?  Feel free!

Happy losing!
