Down Right Depressing

Ok. So, tonight is weigh in. Two weeks in the box.  Week one brought great results.  But, week 2 will not.  I don't know what is going on this past week... but the scale isn't budging. And, I was IN the box all week.  I'm actually worried about it showing a gain.  What is going on?  And, this week I should be especially rewarded -- as I was able to get past several challenges:
  • I made it past movie popcorn last night when I went to see Eat, Pray, Love... even though both my friends ordered some. 
  • I declined SEVERAL offers of cake at the Kindergarden party Saturday afternoon....as well as an entire pizza they were trying to discard.
  • I got thru a dinner at our friends home on Saturday night, where I was desperately craving alcohol and the munchies they were eating pre-dinner. 
  • I made it past two lunch meetings last week for work. 
  • I was able to get thru the first week of school, several frustrating work experiences, and my annual visit to the gynocologist without cracking open the rum! 
Last week's weight loss helped to keep me focused and motivated.  What will keep me on track this week?
This is just down right depressing. 

I'll post an update after class.  Maybe I can shed 5 pounds between now and 4:30?  I'm open to suggestions.

    Do you have an ipod or something like it you can put all your favorite songs on? Music can be such a great mood altering thing if you pick the right music.

    Losing to the Oldies??? Wasn't that a Richard Simmon's Video?

    You can do this! You've made it this far with some good results...so you're looking at what appears to be a set back...unfortunately that's part of the journey - You've been doing GREAT and we all believe in you...come on folks, if you believe in this wonderful, beautiful, awesome gal clap your hands, louder, LOUDER -- there, you see. That rumble you hear across the city (the country even) are all of the people in your corner. You are loved and will not be alone in this endeavor.
