Okay, so it's been a rough year.
I had been doing pretty well there for a while, having lost 60 pounds and gotten myself to a good level of physical and emotional fitness.
Then... life happened. I got stress fractures in both of my tibia, setting back my running. I discovered that my husband has been cheating on me (with many people, some of them men) and, unbelievably, I tried to make it work. I got divorced, but I have had to stay in the same house with him for months, each day er...

I am getting ever more confident as the days pass. Lately, I'd felt myself slipping into those old hopeless feelings ("I'll never lose this weight" and "I'm just destined to be fat"

, but I've forced myself to take some proactive steps and am encouraged by the fact that I stepped on the scale this morning and showed a loss - so it must be working.

Well, I'm embarrassed to say that I've gained back about 20 lbs of the 60 that I'd lost as of August of 2007. I could make all sorts of excuses for why it happened (i.e., going through a tough divorce, stress fractures in my legs from running, etc.), but I won't.

Grrrrrr in-laws...
Not only are they incredibly annoying to me (seriously, who
farts at the dinner table?? THEY DO), but whenever we go there, I can pretty much forget about having any healthy choices available to me. Everything is cheesy this, mayonnaise that. So I can do one of the following:
1) Sit there and drool and eat micro-portions while the family belches/farts and descends like a plague of locusts on the cheesy/mayonaissey/fatty bliss of their dinner (which probably is ...

Had a loss this week, so I guess I shouldn't complain.
However, the CK weekly report thing scolded me for losing too much weight from last week to this week... which I'm not real happy about. I was PMSing in the worst way last week and was retaining more water than a sea sponge, so it's no wonder there's a 2 1/2 pound difference between last week and this week!
One thing I'll admit that I am struggling with a bit, though, is the whole calories thing. I can never seem to be consistent...
