And ... Back Up Again

Am I struggling? Losing ground? Or am I moving ahead? The scales are up and sticking, but I see abs and ribs. It's so very foggy on the weightloss battlefield. 

I'm feeling a little down right now. I'm waiting on a wedding dress that no one cares to deliver on time because "Hey! You're not getting married til April, right?" and I can't get someone to book me a good deal on a the vacation package. It's as if no one wants the business. There'll be 14 people on this trip! Surely to GAD there's a sizeable bonus for someone in that!

I am bloated and angry. It doesn't seem that I'm running enough to lose any weight yet. It's as if all of my plans have come to a grinding halt and I'm REALLY hating it. I gotta sit here in limbo until what? Will it be OCTOBER before I get a wedding date? I can't put a freakin' label on a wine bottle, can't order chocolates, can't embroider flippin' tote bags or hats. I'm JUST SO TICKED OFF!!!

Focus on the positive, Rho! You're going to increase your KMs this week. You have a dance camp to attend this weekend. You don't have the TIME to be frustrated about your wedding for at least two weeks!  The scales will bounce down, and maybe we'll use the next two weeks for a little detox/extra clean living. Let's just use this time! There are at least to positives to be made of every negative!

Last week, I did SO well on all of my runs. I really enjoyed all of the runs last week. (Which tells me I need to push a just a little harder this week.)

I've heard bad things about the half marathon event that our training event is scheduled to coincide with. I'll have to investigate. They say the trail conditions are 'nasty'.  I'll have to be the judge of that, I think.
