Phew…. 3 weeks… Tooo long

I have to apologize for taking forever to post again. Sooo much has happened lately and I hope I have enough time to go over it. Most likely, it will take several posts to get everyone caught up. Look for posts and pics about the 5K I ran on October 17th. Look for the post on my GoWear Fit (wahoo). I will talk about my weight yo-yo in this post. That will most likely be it. As life goes, it becomes harder and hard to get on here and post. Work has been hectic and I was sick over the weekend, but I am back now.
My weight has yo-yo’d the past few weeks. Didn’t eat quite as well as I hoped when Lisa left and now feel like am back on track. I am steady at 330, so no loss this week, but with being sick and drinking TONS of water, I am not surprised. I am hoping that getting over this hump is over and I can focus on the next 11 pounds to get to my 100.
I knew this was going to happen and I accept that it is part of this entire journey. If weight was easy to lose, obesity wouldn’t be the problem it is. The fact I find comfort in food is something I need to address. If not, I will always flee back to it when I am lonely, stressed, sad, etc. My will power has not yet reached the level it needs to be, but I am always working on it.
I have to shout out to all my friends old and new who have followed me on this journey. It is amazing to know that people are there with you in mind, body, and spirit. It is a tough road to follow when my entire life has been centered around edible joy. Taking the focus off culinary bliss and on to overall health is a hard one. Eating is easy… something I have always been good at. Now it is time to re appropriate my talents. This time doing less with my mouth and more with the rest of my body.
I hope, like usual, to keep up the posts. Please stay with me even when I stray adrift. I love you all.

So glad to see you posting again! It *isn’t* easy to lose the weight but you CAN and WILL do it when you’re motivated and ready to. Maybe write out the reasons you want to stay on your plan and post them somewhere strategic (mine are my twitter background so I see them daily) so they help you stay on track! You haven’t gained so that is all good! : ) Welcome back!!

You will get through your hard times.. I have noticed sometimes that if I have done badly or gained or just feel crappy I am worried about posting. What I realized is that no one has expectations for you/me other than you/me . As far as the blogosphere it remains the same. Always here always supportive when you need it.
Glad to see you back keep up the good work. You have made amazing progress!
