I just realized Christmas is just around the corner.
For the past two years I have been loving/hating the holidays.
Last year I joined a WW message board Xmas card exchange, I was so excited to receive all the cards and well wishes from people. It made me forget I was alone for the second year in a row.
So this will be my third Xmas alone and honestly it's not getting easier.
I love that I can do what I want but it's lonely time.
I have not even thought about starting my shopping yet. I hate the malls this time of year.
I am reading Thin for Life, so far so good. I am only at the 4th chapter so it's a little too early to tell.
I went to the gym today! It felt great and my membership expired today so tomorrow I will go pay for 2 mths. I think I like working out.
My father made me angry yesterday. It's a long story but it involved the evil Chicken Mcnuggets.
No I did not eat any but it's like asking an alcoholic to bring you a beer because you are craving it.
I need to change up my plan in order to loose this stubborn weight. I am trying hard but not hard enough. At this point in the game it's harder to loose and everyone hits that spot. Except my tires are spinning. It's affect every aspect in my life. I have noticed since being stuck in a rut with my weight, my mood has been down.
It's like I felt proud of loosing, proud of where I am, what I have become. I have accomplished so much that other people struggle to accomplish less.
Now I feel like I am a failure just because the scale is not going down. I have measured myself to see the changes but those numbers don't mean as much to me as the WI.
I am gonna give it my all from here till December 25th to see what I can accomplish. No excuses!

Hi Julie! Thanks for visiting & commenting on my blog. Gees, you're gorgeous.
A fellow Canadian, Tosca Reno, wrote The Eat-Clean Diet book which I'm now following after several false starts trying other plans. I'm finding it practically effortless. If you're interested in checking it out I have her link on my blog list.
You are the farthest thing from a failure... I know how you feel though, the weight just seemed to fall off at the beginning and now each pound takes a lot more work.
But in the end we know it is worth all the effort. You are doing great!
Ugh - sorry that you are feeling a little low right now. I pray that your spirits will lift soon. It is tough when you feel like things aren't moving. Be encouraged by nature - a bulb planted underground doesn't look like much in the winter, but that tulip in the spring sure is gorgeous! You might just be in "underground" time right now, but your body IS getting healthier. Keep with it!
I take part in card exchanges too. Which forum do you post on? I post on www.dwlz.com and have done for about 8 years!
I am trying to find the perfect Christmas Card right now....hahaha
