I love that I am finally seeing a payoff for all of my hard work. I remember all of the times I wanted to just give up because I wasn't getting anywhere with my small 1/2 pound losses or no losses, and I decided to keep going so that I would at least be able to say that I gave it my all. And then one day, I started to lose inches and more weight consistently. And if I reach a point when I am not losing anything even though I am consistently working out, I know that eventually the loss will catch up on the scale and it always does.

So to those of you who feel like giving up, try to stick with it one more month, add some fun activities to your day. When was the last time you just stated dancing? My 4 yr old DGD has a bunny that plays some fast music when his foot is pressed. I watched her press his foot and then she would just start dancing like no one was watching, she would laugh, and she invited me to dance too. So I figured, what the heck, and I tried it. Oh what fun. We both laughed. We did it over and over. Guess what? Fun and activity points. It all adds up. Listen and watch those babies in your lives, they know how to have fun and movement usually comes along with it.
