I recognize it. It's upon me. There is great danger or giving up or dropping out. Due to several reasons beyond my control.
*Christmas spreads - it seems everywhere I go, there is some kind of awesome dessert or summer sausage with an exotic cheese ball. The temptations surround me. I feel heartburn coming on already.
*Kids out of school - it is so much harder to get in a workout when I am not on a constant routine.
*Tom OOT - when he is OOT, it makes it waaay difficult to get the to the gym.
*My most compelling reason? I fell and hurt my knee. Bad. They don't call me "Grace" for nuthin. While running, I tripped over my sister's flower bed trim and my knee landed directly on the edge of her concrete step. My knee is black and blue and HURTS. I've got this really embarrassing limp.
Now you see why I call it the danger zone?
Well, thank goodness for this blog and for Amanda who called me out in a comment on my last post. I promise you: this blog is keeping me honest. And people like Amanda and Katie and Amy and Chere don't realize what a favor they are doing me by reading here once in a while.
I am going to do my best to make it through this 3 week stretch and NOT give up.
Do what I can to stay out of the danger zone. And Amanda, I will get to that weight thing.
Tomorrow.

Just think about the changes you HAVE made over the last four weeks. You are thinking about what you eat, not just going off in abandon with donuts and a Coke for breakfast...that is something right there! Give your knee time to heal and you'll be back at the gym. Let us know how we can help...Allie's itching to baby sit...
You're doing great...so sorry you hurt you knee, my friend! You'll be back to your old routine before you know it.
It sounds like your are logging everything you eat and that's a big deal. *Stick with your upper body work outs at least.
Hang in there...I start my BFL challenge on December 29th, and your an example for me!
