I've been on a bit of a plateau too. Thankfully, I haven't gained more than a pound or two back. On the days that I work full shifts, I am not going to exercise. My job is pretty active and I'm in and outside all day. Working out when I come home is neither an option nor a choice at that point. I'm just too wiped out and I don't want to spend any of my 3-4 hours before bed doing anything that resembles work.

However, there's no reason for me not to take advantage of my days off or even the half days that I work. I chalk it up to laziness, pure and simple.

At this point in the game, I know what I should be eating and both Ebon and I do tend to, for the most part, lean towards healthier fare nowadays. But I don't get as frustrated with myself about my little slip ups or outright carb fests as much as I did before. I've opted to take a month off from my food journal, to test myself and to see where I am at in terms of healthy eating.

I'm still 20 lbs. down and ahead of the game and my body feels comfortable at this weight. I do need to work on toning though. I have more jiggle than Jello.

I just do the best I can at that moment. Some moments are better than others and some choices are better than others. To not stop trying is the key.
