Past Weekend

Super Bowl Weekend... Never a good thing for me... I had a relapse... The only silver lining is that it could have been worse... I gained 2.2 pounds. I have to work extra hard this week... I'm also trying to find new/different exercises so that I don't get bored... which is something I can easily do... My hard work starts tonight... Wish me luck!

Week 2

Instead of comparing our lot with that of those who are more fortunate than we are, we should compare it with the lot of the great majority of our fellow men. It then appears that we are among the privileged.

- Helen Keller


I must admit I am completely guilty of this. I often think about how someone else has such an easy life and what my life would be like if I walked in their shoes. Then I stop to think about what it took for them to get there. Also, I have to realize that the grass isn’t always greener on the other side. I have to come to terms with the fact that I have the life I do and I need to be happy with that. I’m better off than some… worse than others.

I weighed myself last night… as promised I am going to weigh myself in every Monday. So I now weigh 235.4. I gained two ounces. All things considered… I am truly blessed. It could have been much worse. I didn’t take into consideration this weekend what I was eating. But I’m just thankful it wasn’t much more.

See you next week. Hopefully weighing a little less…
