Yes I am....and I have weakness for sweets also. I did post a 1.6 pound loss for this week, so my new number is 175. I really need to focus on my exercise. I think the one thing that I did learn this past week was that if I don't move, I don't lose. I can eat well and not slip at all, but if I don't get in my exercise, it's all for not! I will start my training program for the 1/2 marathon in May this week and finish up my last week of orientation at work. School is starting to take large chunks of my time as well. There are days when I don't feel like I see my husband at all. And in truth there were a couple of days this week when it was more than 24 hours before I saw him. So I guess I finally need to admit and accept that stress does have a lot to do with weight loss. In the past I basically felt that stress was just an excuse for someone that wasn't trying hard enough. I always thought that I could never be affected by stress, because I just didn't have enough of it to cause a problem. Now looking back at the past few months and days, I see that yes I do have stress in my life and yes, it does effect me in many ways. I am not perfect and I am allowed to be weak. So I guess I need to find a way to manage stress and get my life back under control. I am hopeful that training for an other 1/2 marathon will also get me back on track, but now I'm having my doubts. So that's my short post for week 49. Week 50 is just are the corner. Until then keep moving my friends ~ Darcy
