Yep, struggling...that's a good word to describe my current state of mind. I'm going back to out of control eating and I don't like it. Everyday I tell myself I'm not going to do it and then I do it. So, as much as I hate to do it, I think I'm going to have to come back to blogging my food intake everyday. At least write it down somewhere. And go back to preparing my food the day ahead of time. I'm not giving up at all and I'm confident that even with my current backslide, I will reach my ultimate goal. Now I can pretty much guarantee that I won't be reaching my 80lbs lost mark in 08. Even if I could reach that, it wouldn't be in a healthy way. :o) So for 2009 I'm going to do my goals a little differently. My 1st one is to be in the 220s by the 17th of January. As of this morning that would be a loss of 7.2lbs to reach that goal. On the 17th, HHT and I are on our way to Lincoln City exactly one year from the time we went last year when my journey began.
I really need your prayers! I'm pretty sure I'm doing the whole stress eating thing to avoid facing things I don't want to face. So, I'm going to be doing some soul searching to figure out what I'm hiding from and then I'm going to face it head on!
Bottom line, still here. Haven't done as well as I would have liked, but I'm also not going to use it as an excuse to stop.

Hang in there Rachel, I too am struggling and not where I would like to be but am better than where I was this time last year so that in its self is something to be happy about. I quit my job last Fri night and have been focusing on my family, house and myself more. I do need to find something part time the first of the year but for the most part am just working on keeping everyone happy and healthy and that includes me. Best of luck and I know you will get back on track.
