Again I'm late posting. I really have no excuse for not posting this weekend except that I'm struggling with my weight issues and life in general. I have been thinking and doing some soul searching after my weigh in this. I honestly wonder if I should continue on the Jenny program at all right now. First let me give you then numbers. 163.4 was my weigh in number this week, for those not keep track, that's a 0.8 pound gain. I seem to be hovering around the 162 mark right now. I start every week with the best of all intentions and do my best to stay motivated. But something happens about mid week and I crack. I keep thinking about something my consultant and others have said to me...."Stress will add weight". I'm terribly stressed out about my job and after reading an article today I think that my job may be a BIG part of what's wrong. The article was "Three Questions to Ask Yourself Before Loosing Weight." I like being a nurse, I like what I do, but place where I'm working right now is making me miserable. I don't want to quit and I actually can't afford to quit. So now the question becomes, how do I fix it? Like I just stated, I need to work, but I've finally realized that this may be why I'm having such a horrible time getting off this plateau. And I'm afraid if I don't do something quick I'll start gaining again. How do I make the best of the situation until I can change it? I guess that's really my question. I don't want to be overweight anymore. I don't! I don't want to quit running, but right now I'm tired all the time. I'm not getting up regularly at 4 in the morning to exercise anymore. I still do every once in a while, but not every day like I used to. I've registered for a 5K in December to try and jump start my running again. I bought those new shoes I really wanted to get. I set my alarm every day, I challenged myself and dragged my cousin in on this challenge and every day I tell myself to get back on track. Heck I've even set reward goals and mini reward goals in hopes I can get myself going in the right direction. What more can I do? I sit here seriously thinking that if I can't get back on track, I might as well just stop going into JC and spending all this money. I need to be honest with myself, if I can't get back on track then it's just money being wasted. So that's this weeks post. A really depressing post I'm totally aware of this. I'm just lost. I feel like I'm drowning, fighting for weight loss and air..... Until next week, keep moving everyone. ~ Darcy
