Perhaps There Needs To Be Bigger Steps

Good news, and bad news. The good news is that I didn't gain a single pound in the last week. The bad news is that I didn't lose a single pound in the last week. I could come up with lame excuses that my wife and I had sushi (yum) and hibachi on Sunday. I could say that I had dinner out a few times this week (and eating with my parents always has a degree of stress and you know that I always eat more under stress). I could say a lot of things, but....

I TOOK IN AS MANY CALORIES AS I EXPENDED.

True, my activity increased this week, but I will increase it next week and not eat out this week. I am back to having a bowl of oatmeal for breakfast instead of the Frosted Flakes that I had on vacation last week. Like a drunk falling off the wagon, it is back on I go. I shall succeed and just coasting for a week is not the reason to completely give up. Winston Churchill had the right idea when he stated "Never, never, ever give up".

And I shall not. Help keep me strong because I will weigh perfectly within a year.
