motivation and confession (Lindie)

Motivations
I've put up "affirmations" in my closet so that I see them every day when I'm getting dressed. These are positive sayings about things that I desire to see happen in my life. So, these are the affirmations I have for this contest.
I am _____ pounds.
I am healthy and fit.
I have won the McElroy Family Biggest Loser.
(I also found scriptures to back up my affirmations.)

My other motivation is my sister, Katie. She and I grew up being very close in size-even while in college. Well, I ended up having Jackson (and ladies we all know how our bodies keep that extra baby weight), so I got bigger and she started getting smaller and smaller and smaller. Now, after eating healthy for over a year, she is about 25 pounds smaller than me! Currently, she is doing a 30 day diet called "Raw for 30 days". I thought it was crazy at first, but she's doing great and is almost done with her 30 days. She's been blogging about it and I encourage you to see what she's been eating. It's really interesting. It kindof goes back to what Heather was saying about how your body just doesn't really want the "junk" food anymore and the green stuff starts to taste good.

Confession
Here's the bad news...lastnight we went to the state fair and I was REALLY bad. I'm definitely feeling the effects of it this morning. Justin ate a big lunch, so he wasn't really hungry and my sister is on her raw diet and Jackson hasn't been eating much, so after I bought all this really gross food, I had to eat it all by myself. It was yummy but not at the same time. By the way, have any of you ever had deep fried oreos? Seriously. They are so good but so bad.

Anyway, luckily we have another week until the weigh in. I will be headed to the gym more this week to burn off my bad choices. I hope everyone is doing better than me. =)
Love to all!
