That which doesn't kill us, makes us stronger!

It's been almost 2 weeks, and I am definitley feeling better..more in control, more proactive.I have been very upbeat and positive but the scale still says "4" lbs, which I am not complaining about. My initial calculation was 2 lbs. per week, so in theory I am right on task but I feel slightly deterred for the fact that it has been "4" lbs since the end of the first week. Granted it has been an unusual week, I had a small fender bender on Wednesday that threw me for a loop. I ended up coming home late and we ended up getting food out to eat..Chinese no less. SO, needless to say that wasn't exactly healthy. BUt I did realize that when I am stressed, i head for carbs to comfort myself. Note to self! Then today , I woke up to a horrible back spasm, which left me completely incapacitated and lying on the floor unable to move. I am sure that this is the reinjury of an injury I got about 3 weeks ago. I am positive that I keep pulling my back because I am out of shape. That is a major factor in beginning this back. I can't keep doing this to me back.Its horrible to feel incapacitated to such a point that you are helpless. So, now I can't turbo jam as planned but I will supplement with walking, now that I can walk upright again:) Staying positive, I know I can do this:) I believe in myself and I believe in God, and between the two us, I can do anything that I set my mind to:)
