I thought I was "stuck" during week 5... that was nothing compared to the "stuck" I find myself in now. I have worked hard this week in the gym (and out of it), gone through 2 changes in my diet this week, and watched a teammate damage her Achilles' tendon. Saturday I did an hour and a half in the gym between the treadmill and the bike; the kids had to be up on Washington Road to sign up to work Masters' week, and the rent-a-cops informed me that I could not go in with them to help them with their paperwork. So I bundled up and did laps around the entire perimeter of the shopping center - walking along the front side, running along the sides and the back for nearly an hour. Then I went home and did The Biggest Loser Last Chance Workout video. Sunday, I went back to the gym between the morning service and choir practice, and got some time in on the treadmill. My shoulder has been hurting since Monday, my knee has been hurting since Wednesday, and my back has been hurting since Friday. Tonight I had to face yet another food fellowship at church, where I ate absolutely nothing.
And I'm stuck. As in, no weight loss.
Skip and Kristy told me it was coming, and to just be patient through it; if I keep doing what I'm supposed to be doing, the weight will start coming off again.
I don't want to be patient, though... I have my eye on my next goal. I'm SO close to hitting the halfway-to-my-goal mark, only 2 months into the competition. I will get there, just not as soon as I wanted to.
I know I've disappointed some people this week... but I'm giving it my all.
