So there have been a lot of opportunities to just give up and walk away from this in the past couple of weeks. It would have been easier in the short run.
Thank you for reading and sticking with me, and keeping in touch with me through this rough patch.
I want to post a happy uplifting message again. I want to be proud of myself the way i was just two weeks ago. I want to go through a single day with no mistakes and no sliding and no cheating myself. I want to expand that to a week, to a month.
Tomorrow is "put all the pieces together" day. Tomorrow i am going to 1) do both of my workouts, 2) stick to the plan in terms of food, 3) read blogs, 4) write my food journal, and 5) be able to post a happy message at the end of the day. And then the day after that I'll do the same, and the day after that I'll wonder why I found it so hard to do that for this "time off."

Its a tough time right now for me too. So much going on. I want to get back to 100% too, I'm at about 95% right now but its just not enough. Don't give up and I won't give up either.
Hang in there. You can do this! I'm going through a rough patch right now, too! It seems like there's a lot of that going around right now. A lot of us are struggling... but we mustn't give up.
You've done an amazing job so far... and I know you will continue to do so! :)
PLEASE don't give up! It will get easier, I promise.
Stay strong Mike. Take your time. Let the world come to you. Let go of the things outside of your control, and focus on what makes you better.
It sounds like a lot of us that started around the same time are all having struggles right now. Would you give up on your best friend if they fell off the wagon & made a few mistakes? No. So don't give up on yourself either.
I used to be a big Sheryl Crow fan, and one of her lyrics seems appropriate: "Noone said it would be easy... but noone said it would be this hard" We can all do it though!
Just popping in to say "hi." I hope everything's going well for you. :)
Mike - Where are you? Keep blogging and letting us know how you are doing. We miss seeing you.
