I have a love/hate relationship with Sundays. Mostly love, because let's face it, it's a day not at work. But around 6PM at night the sinking feeling of all the fun being over starts to seep in. I've had that feeling ever since I can remember. And thanks to that damn ticking clock on sixty minutes I always knew when it was 6PM and the day was pretty much over. 

When I was young bed time on a school night was 8:30PM, funny that was the single rule we had in our house, we HAD a bedtime. Not surprising, no doubt my mother couldn't wait to get rid of us so to speak. Anyway, 6:00 was so close to bedtime and Sundays were always bath night. After that off too bed and then voila! Monday morning and time for school. I wasn't a big fan of school until high school when I had my 'group' of friends and suddenly boys liked me.

Sundays now for me are the day before WEIGH IN day. Which means I have to be extra extra good. Which is kind of odd since I am pretty much always 'good'. Every once in a while, and I mean once in a while, I have something not low calorie. But on the weekends, and particularly Sunday I am ultra conscious of getting on the scale the next day. Even though I have pretty much been sticking to being 'good', it doesn't always show on the scale. I can't tell you how unbelievably frustrating that is. For anybody who doesn't believe it, let me assure you that is it waaaay harder to lose weight the older you get. 

If I don't gain weight I am content. Well, for a minute I go thru the wtf! stage but then realizing that gets me nowhere I just stay content knowing that another week will fly by and that week will be the one that makes the difference. My goal is one stinking pound a week. And sometimes I can't even get that. 

I have high hopes for tomorrow. I've had 2 weeks in a row staying the same. Last week I went to the gym 3 days and this weekend I worked outside both Saturday and Sunday and stayed in the 1600 calorie range every single day this week. If I had to grade myself I would give myself an A. We'll see ... still minus 21 and counting today, Sunday.
