It is a cop out. Someone very close to me has hinted about surgery and I am completely opposed to it. Blood, sweat and tears are your pain to remind you that you are doing it the right way. Remember this, and believe me when I say that I understand your frustration, The Egyptians didn't build the pryamids in two weeks. Some people are blessed with the gift to be able to get in shape easily and some are not. I am the latter, but I know over time I will see my results. So will you.

Pam has some great ideas about keeping a blog at home and taking the time to post a summary here 1 day a week (I may steal 'em!). This site is so much fun and hard to stay away from, but it is a GREAT place to get the support and encouragement we all need from time to time! I wish you the best and hope to see you around the site! Brooke :D P.S. You have beautiful eyes! Hi Cristin!

You know maintaining is a step forward and you should recognize that and give yourself due credit. Changing up the workout and/or nutrition should end your plateau and I have been there :) I relate about being super busy, too. You may not be able to make it here every day to post but think about starting a blog on your computer. At the end or start of every day summarize what you did/accomplished, analyze it, and outline your plans for the next take. I think you will find the act of doing this gives you focus and accountability. Then maybe once a week on Sundays post a summary of your week here. Good for you - will provide you with community support and you will encourage others. Have a great day! Pam :) Good for you Cristin!
