Why Now?

I have been reading numerous blogs of weight loose journeys. These people understand how simple it is. A numbers game: calories in/calories out or move more/eat less.


So what screws us all up?? Why isn't is as easy as that sounds?? What is the answer??
All of these blogs are so inspiring. They literally talk about the food relationships, the emotions, the monumental effort it takes to resist cravings. Cravings are so cruel.....they are nonstop daily, hourly, and minutely. The temptations never go away.

I have also noticed on some of the older blogs (from 2004) that these people are loosing the weight and their blog now contains other topics. I am hopeful that once weight is not the sole and total focus of my life, it becomes possible to have a life that allows other interests in it. Now that is incentive!!

Today is Wednesday and I am posting this but it is not the starting blog entry I wanted it to be. Quite frankly it is because I just got back from vacation yesterday and I am fried. I have a lot to do today and also have to get back to work so I don't have the time to take my starting pictures, etc,etc, etc. Are you buying this bullshit??? No the real reason is-----I weighed 8 pounds more this morning than I expected to and am pissed with myself. Oh well the scale said 199.0 this morning which honest to God I have not been this high in at least 6 months. I have been hoovering between 190.2 and 194 for the last 6 months so I am pouting today...something that really helps!!

Oh well tomorrow is another day!!
