Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time.

A Rough Day
I was surprised with a box of DVD's from an old friend of mine today. He had burned old home videos of me and a bunch of my friends as well as summer vacations, a marching band festival, etc (all from my highschool days) onto different DVD's for me. I had asked him to do this a long time ago but assumed he had forgotten since I hadn't received them. He also burned my wedding DVD for me from VHS to DVD. So I, of course, watched them all this afternoon. And it made me sentimental and, for whatever reason, a bit blah and down. Possibly looking at a thinner me wasn't what my psyche wanted right then. I don't know. So I ate 10 points over today. However, I am not over my weekly points so it went into them. It's not so much that I was over my points that bothered me. It was the fact that I immediately turned to eating to console my emotions... something I had thought I was starting to get a handle on! Grrr... So I ran 4.5 miles which made me feel better. At least about myself. But it's still bugging me. I know this battle is for the rest of my life and I am prepared. But sometimes victory resonates through me and other times it just doesn't. The "other times" aren't so much fun... Tomorrow is a new day. Thanks for listening.
