Margie over at http://myhealthylivingthruweightcontrol.blogspot.com/2010/06/rethinking-and-readjusting.html <br /><br />is going to be reviewing a book she just got about maintaining weight loss. I am going to keep my eye on her future posts. She is one of my "maintenance heros" but she still struggles with it and works at it daily. Anyhoo...you might want to pop over there too and read about the 12 Rules in the book she is reviewing. Tomorrow will be "Rule 1". <br /><br />Shower time for me...I ran tonight.

It's not what I FEEL that determines where I'll end up - it's what I DO. And today (and the next, and the next), I choose to DO what I WISH FOR, which is healthy and strong.SeattleRunnerGirlhttp://seattlerunnergirl.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2297412163862522994.post-54108863622247752792010-06-30T18:13:14.047-05:002010-06-30T18:13:14.047-05:00I don't think victory is the number on the sca...I don't think victory is the number on the scale. It is wanting to maintain healthy food choices and routine exercise. At least, that's my definition of success.<br /><br />Sure I gained a few pounds over my vacation. I can feel it. On the plus side, I don't prefer eating that way. Once in awhile for some special occassion [like my parents' 50th anniversary] is fine. I won't regret it, as the sea bass tasted damn fine and so did the white chocolate mousse cake. Although I feel it around my middle, I also know it will be gone soon as I go back to my routine. My healthy habits will take care of it. So yay on that.<br /><br />People get hung up on an image or a number, but a change in routine you look forward to returning to is the real prize.M Paxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14096697282530998519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2297412163862522994.post-86781600986208497842010-06-30T17:20:15.627-05:002010-06-30T17:20:15.627-05:00I feel like giving up somedays.

Somedays I feel so weak in the face of just making good choices and it makes me wonder why I am doing it at all. <br /><br />...Then I remember not being able to walk 50 feet without taking a break.<br /><br />I will screw up, I will fall down. I will eat too much, I will make bad choices...sometimes. But I will never go back to wondering if I am going to wake up in the morning. I am never giving up.
