Stuck

I am stuck and feel like a fraud!!  I have been going up and down the same 2 pounds for about 6 weeks.  Have you ever heard this definition of insanity:  Doing the same thing over and over but expecting a different result.?  That is me.  What is my problem? 

I feel comfortable now, even though I know I would feel even more comfortable 10, 15, 20 pounds less.  One thing, my knees have been bothering me and I am sure it is arthritis in them.  I know that each pound you lose will take 4 pounds of pressure off your knees so what is my problem?  I know that my knees need the relief and I would be much happier. 

So here I am and feeling like I am spinning my wheels, but I have to look at the bright side because I have told myself that 2010 is the year I am going to improve myself and be more positive overall.  So in the past I know I would have just thrown in the towel by now and given into all of my cravings.  I am only talking 2 pounds here not 10 or 20 (which is easily doable for me).

The last two day I have taken to carrying around a piece of paper with the following quote from Jen at http://www.priorfatgirl.com/:

One day at a time
One decision at a time
One bite at a time

STAND UP AND FIGHT!!

I am reading this often and it has helped me not to overindulge.

I can, I will!!
