Anyone? Anyone?

So...no one has even peeked at this blog for over a week. People pay as much attention as Ferris Beuller's class does to their teachers. Can't say that I blame you because I haven't posted on it lately. I really haven't had much to say other than I'm trying to be good, but it doesn't really seem to be working as well as it use to.

Overall, I think I feel healthier. I can definitely tell when I've missed a day of exercise or if I've eaten too much, but the scale doesn't want to reward me for being good. I've hovered between 286 and 288 for about three weeks now. Christmas put a few pounds on because I stopped keeping track, but it came right back off once I started. Now I just need to figure out a way to get off this blasted plateau.

I don't have time for more exercise--I've been doing 30 minutes 4 or 5 times each week--and I'm trying to be good about what I put in my mouth, but nothing's happening; it's rather frustrating, see?

Any ideas?

Confirmed Neglect

Yep.  This blog was neglected, but Joe Average Writer was viewed in record numbers during the month of December.  As far as my getting skinnier is concerned, I shall soon be getting back to constructing new goals and a plan to accomplish my weight loss very soon.  The bad news is that I completely let myself go during December.  This was mostly forced by two factors: getting sick and an overload of online grading.  It seems that everyone needed to graduate or something.  So, Amy and I abandoned our good intentions until next Monday.  The good news is that I only gained 3 pounds.  Not too bad considering all the crap I shoveled into my gullet over the past four weeks.
