Hey nvrquit0383, think we are all feeling some sort of funk...I have been slacking for more than 8months now. I see-sawed 10-12 pds, but have plateaued at 6pds., due to lack of motivation, or just plain old laziness. I have no real excuse or valid reason, but every day I have to keep reminding myself, those pounds are NOT going to magically go away, so when I tell myself that, it helps me to stop going towards the cookies, and opt for the yogurt. Avoid the cream, in my coffee, and re-learn to like black coffee, no more than 8oz, with ONE sugar! Having dinner out, I hear "AVOID the extra carbs, if you're holding a glass of wine. if you;re having a second glass DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT DESSERT!!" it's these little sub-concious nags, that are helping me avoid the additional 6 pds that I know I would have gained back by now!! But now I really want to swing the scale downwards some more, so every day I make it through by listening to my little nag, feels like an accomplishment and one step closer to my goal. Never quit! you'll get there :) 

Thanks so much sweetie. You're so right!! I'm trying hard this week to avoid temptation. It's everywhere haha! Best of luck to you on your journey!!
