Help. Sabotage?

When I get so close to finishing or getting something or if I tell people about something I plan on doing, it never seems to happen. Why? Am I sabotaging myself? I don't feel like I am but what else would it be? For example, I could have bet another client's weight loss timeline. I was so set on it. I could do it! I was so excited and then I didn't! Why? Is it something subconscious that I'm doing to myself? Now, I fear that I am doing it again with this competition. Just like this weekend... Arg, so frustrating.
I know many people are afraid of accomplishing something or feel like they are not worth it, but I am. Im not afraid to win or succeed at all. I love passing off and accomplishing things. But why does this happen? Am I doing this to myself?
Does anyone have any insight?

Well, today was a great day though I am extremely tired. I did 1hr on the stairs, training with Danny, then another 1hr on the stairs. It's time for an EARLY bedtime.

    I sometimes have the same thoughts of "I don't deserve to do this" or "how can I do this and be so selfish when others around me are going to be unhealthy". We overthink things too much. Just stay here with us, we are like-mided people and while we may have different individual goals, we all have the same ultimate goal of being healthy & happy. Stay with us, get your feelings out and we will all help each other. Stay positive!!!!!

    I've read that sometimes when we tell others what we intend to do, we are subconsciously looking for their approval. I think if you just keep in mind that you are doing this for you, even though other people may also benefit from it, then you might not feel the need to look to others. I know this goes against what some gurus will tell you, but I'd rather get the results first, rather than stress over what I told someone else I would do. Just my 2 cents. TC

Slow, Sore & Sour... Oh and Smaller

        I did NOT want to do the stairs again today, but of course I did. With probably 40min left, my back was getting very sore. I kept stopping to stretch but it wasn't helping much. I started contemplating getting off; "my back was just too sore and I didn't want to over do it." However, I think I was looking for a reason to quit. Knowing I probably shouldn't I kept going.
       Not long after, I hit a wall and went to get off... Of course my luck would have it that my line of view fell upon R_ P. running like a mad woman. Oh what an inspiration. She's training for the Boston marathon! "If she could do it, I could too... Or die trying haha."
       Soon thereafter, there was only 15min left. Then 10min. Then 5... I couldn't give in with so little left.
Finally I finished!
I am now paying with a very sore back... oh well, it will be worth it... Just don't over do.

I found out last night why my emotions are all over the place... Well, not all over mostly just down. I was correct; the steroids for the bronchitis are screwing with my hormones. No wonder I have been munchie and soo 'done'! I can't wait for it to be done.

Oh the day before yesterday I noticed my forearms are smaller/narrower! And a few days before that, as I rubbed my eyes, it felt smaller on either side of them & I think I feel my cheek bones better. It's crazy where you find weight coming off. So cool.

Food
Breakfast: 1Tbs almond butter, 10g carb slice of bread, 27g carb banana, 2 scoops protein shake
Snack: 1c frozen raspberries, 2 scoops protein shake
            I was so hungry shortly after. I think I needed more.
Lunch: 1 small gala apple, buffalo sauce, 30g carb pasta, 8g protein chicken
            Hungry again.
Snack: 5oz tuna, 1 Tbs mayo, 1 green onion, very small handful of craisins, mustard 1 large GH honey whole wheat dinner roll
             Not hungry, yeah.
Dinner: homemade oriental chicken soup, 5oz chicken, bok choy, mushrooms, onions, bamboo shoots
Snack: plan on having 1 Tbs pb & 2 scoop protein shake

Workout

Danny's Darkside Minion Thank You Card

There is a shirt, that I think is so funny...

   

Based on this quote (another idea for a title that fell thru) and their minions... Emily made a thank you card for Danny. So cute! 

 Note: the fat sleeping minion on the Darkside and the healthy fit minion on Danny's side. Also those are Jedi Knights in the brown robes.

Danny loved it.
