The season has started for birthdays which means the holidays are not far behind.  Needless to say, I have had quite a few challenging days and feel horrible stuck.  The kids are getting a little nutty and excited for school to start, which means less patient and kind with each other.  I have worked out 3 days this week already but this morning the kids started early and I was not about to try to workout and deal with ornery kids at the same time.  So, trying to stick to my diet today, my shakes, water, my apple and some dinner.  I have got to get back on track.  I haven't gained much back, in fact when I weighed myself Monday morning I was back at my 17pounds.  I really want to get over this hump.  Trying to be diligent because I want this so bad.
