Motivation in the mist of struggles.

I am not back on the horse YET, Emphasize on the YET!  I will keep this going but I just don't feel like it right now.  I told my Mom today I was cranky & frustrated with my weight today. Her response was but your working out and I told her I guess it means nothing to my body because even with the extra calorie burn and not over eating like I used to in the past I still can't lose.  It seems that the activity really doesn't do anything for my weight loss.  So in the midst of being frustrated and woes me I get a FB notification. I was tagged in a friends status, this friend is more an aquatiance she is a good friend of my BFF & lives in California. Anyways she said she got on the treadmill for the first time in 19 months and is as out of shape as she thought she was but if (ME) & (my BFF) can do it, I can too.   I haven't been posting much of anything about my working out or joining WW on FB but in the last week or so I have been posting the pics on Instagram and having them post to FB as well. I realized the pics I've been posting could have been motivating  her to start again. She had completed the C25K before but then ended up pregnant and had to stop running. But I thought how funny. I am sitting here upset about my weight loss and yet my work is motivating to others.

I was really looking forward to the 5K tomorrow to compare how fast I can do it & how I feel during in compared to the color run because it is the same route.  But now that BFF's Step Mom passed we had a bunch more of her family join our team like her Step Mom's Dad that will be in a wheel chair. So looks like we will be walking it but at least it will be movement.  My C25K says I need to jog for 25 mins tomorrow. I may still do that after the 5K if it is pretty mellow tomorrow, we will see.
