Motivation

I spent the past two weeks or so with no motivation to workout and eat right. I kept doing it because I have to, but I sure wasn't feeling it. Every trip to the gym was dragging myself. I was doing the minimum I had to. As of yesterday I'm feeling more alive again and back to being motivated in my eating and exercise, thank goodness! Did 3 hours of exercise yesterday and am doing 2 hours today. I've, with my doc's permission, upped my eating from 2 meals a day to sometimes having 3 so that I can better get my protein in. I'm starting that today as my protein is low. I need an extra meal today to get it all in. My docs are pleased with my progress and exercise patterns, I've lost 118 pounds in about 6.5 months, and my labs are looking good. I lost 1.8lbs yesterday, breaking a stall I've been in. I'm so glad I'm no longer dragging myself around to workout and eat well. It was really bothersome for a few weeks there.
