I am happy to report that although the scale has been a series of ups and downs for the past 2-3 months, the same is not true for my spirits. I decided that this crazy semester was a difficult time to focus on my weight loss, so I’ve been more concerned with maintaining and taking care of everything I have to get done. After a 2.5 lb gain from Thanksgiving, my morning scale reading is down 1.5 lbs. My graph for for the past 2 months looks like this /\/\/\/\/\ I haven’t effectively lost any weight for several weeks, but I still feel good and my clothes fit (or are too big) and people notice regularly that I look better. I’m going to get back to losing when this semester ends and I have time to cook again, but for now I’m taking the ups and downs as they come. Happy Friday everyone!
