Determined Day #56

My weigh-in over the weekend really has me down, but I have been running my anger out on the treadmill!  Yesterday and today's run were my fastest runs of the year.  Unfortunately the scale hasn't budged in 5 weeks.  In fact, I was up 1.2 pounds.  I asked the class leader how this could be possible since I have ran 14 miles in the past week and have stayed on track with my points.  She reminded me that bodies react differently to weight loss; some lose weight faster than others.  She also reminded me to pay attention to the way my clothes feel.  So, I am trying to be patient.....uggghh.  Not a strength of mine!
