Day 11 of 65 Mood: 6.5 Food: 5 Activity level: 7 (really buay at work with lots of walking across the plant)
Grateful for: *** this will be a long list today** My mobility, being able to get out of bed and walk to work Creativity My mom My baby brother who has taught me strength Children with special needs that I have worked with in the past who showed me enduance and taught me many life lessons Good memories of my dad, and how funny things he used to say still make me laugh Acceptance of mental health issues My job crazy and stressful as it is A roof over my head Fresh fruit in the fridge Fat secret app on my balckberry which enables me to stay "connected" My buddies who either read and comment or just read what I have to say no matter how negative or positive.
** Told you a long list**
The bouncing scale.. Unfortunately the last few days the scale has bounced all over the place, at present it is up. I have been trying to drink more water evryday and have increased my fibre but still those digital numbers do not agree with me. I find myself looking down at them and cursing them. Vowing everyday that I will not step o the dang thing in the morning yet feel compelled to do so. It frustrates me, but then I think meh they are just numbers. I have the power and knowledge to fight them. Now my food on the other hand, leading me to think oh I am doing so well! Then I go and record them and those dang calories add up quick. Where did they come from I think. How are vegetables and fruit adding up to so much? Why did my meal not feel like it was this much going in? Will it come out with those calories attached? (lol that is a funny thought)!!! Was this all part of the unspoken details of my plan? Was my mind saying something but my body having evil alternative motives? Perhaps I just need to work on patience and the miraces of what's to come. Simply do whe best that I can at the moment. Not allow myslef to be slip into the I give up emotion. OR maybe gravity will surprise me in its theory of what goes up must come down.. Well that's it for now! I hope I was able to bring a smile or better yet a chuckle to my buddies! Wishing all a wonderful slightly wacky Wednesday.

Nice grateful list :) I think for me weighing everyday has made me accept that fluctuations are just a way of life and are quite normal - but if you think about it the only true weight in a week is the lowest one....Have a great day :)

Your being thankful for so much reminds me that I must go back to edit my journal to include a thankfulness component. Nice list! Sigh! I love the "roof over my head" part. Love ya!

Sometimes weight fluctuates up and down for a while and then a sudden loss comes when you least expect it. Weighing every day does not always give an accurate picture of the great job you are doing!!

Hey girl! I'm finally catching up with everyone. Wow! You have a solid plan in place with your rating system. I like it. A lot of different struggles for you lately. Keep journaling through it, you're doing great. At some point, you will find your main focus and everything will fall into place. BTW...love your new pic...I can finally see your face!! :-)
