Staying still

Okay - it has been over a month since I have posted anything. I'm not really sure why. Maybe because I don't think anything has changed since December. I still weigh about the same (other than that one weird weigh in where I seemed to have lost 7 lbs in a week). I did read an inspiring story on another blog (and I would ask her permission to repost, but she has never responding to any of my comments so I think it would be pointless to ask). So I'm going to paraphrase.

There was a bird seen through a window flapping their wings as hard and as fast as they could. Except that this bird was not moving. He was staying completely still, even with all the hard work he was putting into flying. Suddenly, the bird stopped flapping and was immediately blown backwards. So all that effort was keeping him at the same point.

I don't think I need to spell out how I feel like relating to this bird. But at least I'm holding steady. And when I find my motivation again, I know that I can give it a little more effort and start moving forward again.
