Not Much Better

So, it's a month since I posted about my rededication to my weight loss efforts, and I'm here to report... nothing. nada. zippo. zilch. I actually weigh 1 pound more. I am officially insane.

Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. - Albert Einstein

So, in trying to break the cycle of insanity, I am announcing a trial separation from my treadmill. We are parting ways, and I have found a new (old) partner in my quest... my ancient Nordic Track ski machine.

Initial results are not promising - every day for the last week I have walked a mile on the treadmill to warm up, then spent 30-40 minutes skiing. Lots of sweat, but no change on the scale. My kind-hearted friends will say "it takes time..." or "you're building muscle" or something else, but

I want results!! I have been on a plateau for 3 months!! ARRRGHH!!
