I've been really depressed and discouraged. For 7 straight weeks I was going down 3, then up 3 then down 3 then up 3....I was staying the same darn weight. I have now lost 2 weeks in a row and so I'm hoping (knock on wood - don't wanna jinx it) that I'm out of my rut.

Also, it was Spring break here for the kids and so I was taking my girls out every single day. I wasn't home much.

Lastly, I have returned back to work pretty much full-time. My days off are Tuesdays and Thursdays as my youngest has pre-school on those days. Anyway, I promise to try to come here a bit more often as I need support so badly.

Regards,
Shawna

Hi, Shawna! I think I may have started up here right about the same time you went MIA (), but I went MIA last week too! And, likeyou, I've been harassed lately by the same pound and a half, up, down, up, down... grrr.

My DS was on Spring Break last week, too, and I really think being out of routine was a big contributor.

Well, welcome back and here's to new beginnings!

Hey Shawna,
I've been MIA as well...too many life circumstances to mention that took over my life. Anyways, it's good to have you back and to be back myself.

So, we missed a bit of time, we have a new day to start out today. I sure like how much better I feel when eating clean, healthy food rather than junk! Let's feel great today!

Take care of yourself....literally!!!

Hi Shawna: I have been battling with the same five pounds for a YEAR! It's not my diet, it's my cheating that's made my rut impossible to get out of. So, I hear ya...

I'm just south of the border from Canada and I can relate to cold weather keeping you inside and once it gets nice, isn't it GREAT to get OUTSIDE and PLAY!?!?!
