To be completely honest, I do not want to write this blog, but feel I must in order to get out of this rut.  My teammates have no doubt noticed I have not lost anything the last 2 weeks.  And honestly, I’m not expecting to show a loss this week.  Not because I’m not going to try, but I think when I get off the wagon for a week or two it also takes that long for my body to readjust, so I actually spend about 4 weeks at the same weight.  And what do I have to blame it on?  My friend coming to visit and bringing cookies?  Being too tired to get up and exercise?  Work/money issues making me stressed out?  Nope- it’s just me!  I know the right things to do and sometimes I do them, and sometimes I don’t.  I get stuck in a place where I feel really guilty about what I’m doing wrong, but then it takes me a while to get back to doing things right.  It’s frustrating and I don’t understand why I do it, but I do.  I am happy to say that I feel like today I’m out of that rut and want to do the right things again.  I got up a little late, but I still worked out.  I ate too many points for breakfast, unknowingly, but still, & chose not to have a morning snack to make up for it.  I decided to have a salad for lunch and instead of dreading it I have made myself look foward to it.  I am almost 1/2 way to having all  my water intake for the day, and I keep on sipping!  Whether the scale shows a loss this week or not, I will feel good knowing I am getting back on track.   So to my team and all of my other buddies, I am back with you!  Thanks for your continued support and encouragement; even when it seems like I’m not responding to it, it still means so much for me to get on here and read them!  Love you!
