This past week has been the worst one yet for me, and I don't even really feel like posting this week, but I am all about discipline in my life and this is one of them.I had a fairly good diet and exercise week. I ate fairly well, I had one bad eating day, but I did get in seven days of movement, whether it was as simple as one day I only walked 10 minutes to 2 hours walking and swimming.
I knew I was going to have some setback because nature plays tricks on your body and will cause you to retain water, so I knew I would probably have a gain this week. What I didn't expect is a 9 pound gain. That was a blow to me.
Needless to say, I was upset and decided to give up, but that is not an option, for lo and behold and I am the new leader for TOPS for the 2009 year.
I have a new obstacle to face and conquer in the next couple weeks. I take over the leadership position in April and I have to be able to motivate my group even if I have a bad weigh in. I need to learn to quit depending on what the scales say, but this is proving to be a very difficult task.
I think that being leader will be a good thing for me in my journey to a healthier life, knowing that I need to be accountable to this group of people and motivate them and help them means that I have to learn how to do this. I am excited about this new step I am about to encounter and I pray that I will be the person that this group needs.
So, until next week I hope to lose nothing but weight and gain nothing but knowledge.

Rhonda, go back 2 blogs ago and read it. Seems this week may have started a couple weeks ago. Re eveulate where you are now and where you came from. You are worring too much about this one setback and not focusing on all you have accomplished. We all have setbacks and it will all come out in the end. Hang in there and congratulations on your new position.
