=[ arg Dont you hate it

dont you hate it when you have been trying really hard to do everything you can to lose weight, then someone comes along and smashes your hopes...     Today was my day off of counting and going to the gym ( I take a day to my self every 2 weeks or so wear i dont watch what im eating and i dont to the gym)  And today was that day so i had a brownie and egg salad with chips and a glass of iced tea for lunch, well about 30 minutes later my mother got home from work and and after she said hi (I was shirtless as I often am)  she said "wow.. as much as your going to the gym you would thing you would lose that big ole stomach of yours". That pretty much ruined my mood for the rest of the day.   sorry had to rant

That stinks... just try to let it motivate you instead of crushing you.  Some people just don't know what to say and are not supportive when they think they may be.

that sucks, and sounds familiar! I'd try to explain ur routine to ur mom and by the sounds of it it's a good plan. 1 day every 2 weeks is hardly excessive and it's something to look forward too and keep urself motivated! Keep it up!
