Great comment though - now you've really got me thinking about that. @Tom: I have to tell ya, I have Definitely fallen into that trap with exercise, particularly weight training. In fact, I've never been successful at weight training for that very specific reason. I hadn't thought of it before, really, as that being the reason, but wow you've really opened a can of worms in my mind for what I need to do exercise-wise, mentally!

I just try to eat healthy when I do-----and when I know that I REALLY WANT A DONUT and not some tuna I try to address the stress. one day at a time huh?

I absolutely agree with LisaN that slow but sure weight loss is the key to long term success. A lot of failed diets are result of people not losing weight instantly, or as fast as they had anticipated. I've fallen victim to this with just exercising. I wouldn't see any muscle buildup right away, or I would feel I'm not improving in my running and I would become discouraged and slowly stop exercising. Your attitude is great, and its fantastic that you realize even moderate weight loss is a major accomplishment. Great job with what you've done so far, and keep up the good work!!!

Thanks! @AndrewE: I consider myself really lucky to have such a great supporter in my wife. I've been training our son to buy her flowers whenever we go to the store, because that's what "we do" in our family. Hopefully that helps to pay her back just a tiny bit for all of the support. @From Fat to Fit: I am glad to hear you're breaking free of the rut - I've been watching your blog for that breakout moment.

The good eating habits I have developed have actually been starting to carry me through.

I hear you about the stress. I've slowly learned to deal with it but it's not easy. Like you I have a very supportive wife who has been amazing. Thanks for the link and for visiting my blog.

It's an honor. I'm a firm believer in the slow route to weight loss, so kudos to your success. Handling stress is one of the most difficult internal conflicts to deal with when trying to lose weight, but from the sound of it, you're use of exercise is great. Keep up the good work, and now, I'm off to do my own exercise.......................:) Great post, and thanks for including Iowa Avenue with such illustrious blogs. It’s an honor.
