Evaluation is just part of the process. And I have been evaluating some recent choices - and their impacts in my life. This has been good on multiple levels.

It's kind of like when I go thru my closet. Have I worn this...touched it even...in the last year? if not... bye bye! Clearly there is a reason I don't wear it. And I don't have the patience to keep things around that are not useful to me anymore.

Thinking this has something to do with getting older...

Anyway..

I have been evaluating my past week. Great food choices. Did ok on the exercise front. (3 times.) And all in all, I do think I might have dropped a pound or two in water weight...as some of my 'tight' clothes are not 'tight' anymore. All good things!

I have managed to bring FS back into my daily life...that's a great choice...and it's been incredibly helpful. Your support, my willingness to re-commit - it puts this in it's proper perspective for me. A major lifestyle change doesn't come about without some major planning and effort in one's life.

There is however a negative that has cropped out of this evaluation process. Maybe it's because I have been at this such a long time. Or maybe it's due to my type of personality. But I have a hard time (sometimes) when I do come here.

Everyone has a journey. A story. And a right to be respected in it. I am certainly not talking about the events in people's lives that need to be shared - God knows...I've done my fair share of sharing!!!

But sometimes I see the same people online - that I have seen for the last few years... and they are still whining about 'cheating' or 'weight gain' at the expense of the pizza and beers they scoffed down the night before... etc.

So as part of my evaluation process, I discovered - I don't need to be the support system to the entire FS community. I do love you guys...really I do. But I just can't handle trying to give advice to deaf ears! (Does that make me a terrible friend?) I'm sorry.

Just trying to remain focused on finding my own way out of this weight gain. And I am 100% serious about doing what I need to do. My standards are high. My goals are set before me. And I don't want to be distracted by the random social chit-chat of those who just come here because misery loves company. That's not me. I want progress. Forward motion. Positive input. Help. Honesty.

Oh, and btw...if you are reading my journal, I can assure you - I am NOT talking about YOU. But you have all seen them. Heck I have probably been them in a past post or two.

I am just tired of misdirecting my energies in life.

All in all, my week was successful. And I feel very good about it. That's enough for me! Hope you are well too!!! Happy Weekend.

Much Love.
