Okay and so not like I am not already down on myself for being so stupid this weekend and eating that stupid Thai food and then screwing my whole system up.

So I go down to exercise...now I have an elliptical that I have had for just 4 years now. We also have a stationary bike that DH just had to have and never uses. When our house flooded in Georgia it ruined the electrical panel on the stationary bike so we still have it. You cannot time yourself or increase or change settings but it works. I love the elliptical machine...if I can say love...I mean really I hate exercise until I get in my habit but once in my habit I have a fondness for the elliptical machine over any other. So today it broke. I was 10 minutes in and it broke. I don't mean a screw came out I mean one arm is attached and it broke. So I go get on the stationary bike and then I start crying while I am riding this bike and sweating. I want to quit 10 minutes in but I argue with myself and I don't quit. I find a different song on my phone and listen to it and pedal hard all the while crying and feeling like the world is against me right now and kicking me at my lowest after this sickening weekend.

Okay so now to go to the mall with my daughter and try to finish up Christmas and at least I will get some extra walking in.

Somedays it's like that when you just don't want to exercise..It's almost like you're torturing yourself.. I felt like that this weekend.. So sorry to hear that you were emotionally drained (that's what it sounded like to me in your note) .. Look at it this way - you got your exercise in for the day and you did some Christmas Shopping which is great when you're "feeling some kind of way" ... Hope you had a great time with your daughter shopping :)

So sorry about your elliptical :/ That's how I felt when my daughter's friend took back her Wii that I used for exercising and weighing in. I'm proud of you for using the stationary bike instead. You didn't give up, girl! That says a whole lot right there! I know you're down about the food and the broken elliptical, but you should be proud of yourself for all the progress you've made so far! Look at your graph, Jamie! It looks like you're rolling down a mountain! Be proud, girl, 'cause I know I'm very proud of you!

I'm so sorry but agree - the fact that you worked through it even in tears speaks volumes of your strength!

I just wanted to thank each of you for the words of support and encouragement. It made me cry when I read this last night and I am very thankful for my FS friends here. You guys are a wonderful gift.
