Keeping your weight in check is sooooo hard! I lost abou 30 pounds last year do to weight gain because of a medication I was on, after I dropped the weight I vowed I'd never battle the bulge again and stayed relentless about my work outs which included running 3-5 miles a day and some weight training. Well about 12 weeks ago I was in Aruba and I tore the ligament in my foot which of course meant no more running and let me tell you, battle I did! I was out of training for about 8 weeks until the foot healed and now I'm slowly working my way back up to the level I was at but it's still an everyday struggle. I've learned not to weigh myself and let the way my clothes fit be the true judge of wear I'm at, but I still have a few pounds to loose. I don't let cookies into the house and I stock up on fresh fruit if I do need to munch, but mostly I find pounding out my adoption frustrations on the pavement or treadmill to be very theraputic!
