I think too if I truly accept my body at this weight, I can really do amazing things with the running. It's not the end of the world to be 10KG overweight. 3 years ago it was 30KG! Hope you also have wonderful things in store for you in 2011! Deb, thank you so much. I think too if I truly accept my body at this weight, I can really do amazing things with the running.

And by the way you have GREAT resolutions! If I would have one it would be "Laugh More", but I'm already laughing all the time so that's cheating hahaha! The best to you as well - you could shift your focus too and follow that program to the T; bet you'd get some of that weight off with your added daily exercise :) Emilie, thank you so much.

For a while now! Now if some of your super-agenda-planning would just rub off on me, that would be great! I thought I heard there'd be a 5K at Zandvoort - that something interesting for you? We are definitely going to have a great running year Fran!! we seem to be a little in sync Fran! For a while now!

I am building on those days. I know the old me would have screamed "screw this" a long time ago. It's going to be fine. Even if I never lose another ounce. I'm not going to give up on healthy. Or running. So, I don't really have much choice do I? My appointment with my doctor is next Thursday. I'll keep you guys posted. I really wish I could do a race in NYC. Tell you what - maybe not this year, but maybe next year. But it's gotta be good and it's gotta include you, Melanie and Ms. Sheryl (and whatever other cool chicks are available). What do you think?

I hope you're ok and just finding some kind of explanation and/or treatment will probably help alleviate sone of your frustration. I've found that I could never stick to weight loss goals I set, only to activity goals. Not sure why, but at least I have measurable success somewhere when the scale hasn't cooperated. That said, I do want to commend you for a couple things, even though you may not want to hear them when you're annoyed: 1. You may not have lost much, but you didn't gain. I am actually highly impressed with this! I once put on over 30lbs in a year while going to the gym. Clearly, you are doing something right. 2. You haven't given up! I have been off and on Weight Watchers since I was 21 and this is the only time I took the bad, but then stuck with it. Btw, I think your race outside of the Netherlands should be here in the NYC area. You in? I think you’re on the right track and I’m glad you’re going to get some bloodwork done as well.
