It's all about the climb!

So I was running today and this song came on my iPod. It really made me think that the lyrics were so relevant to my own weight loss journey...

I can almost seeit,
That dream I'm dreaming, but,
There's a voice inside my head saying,
You'll never reach it
Every step I'm taking 
Every move I make
Feels lost with no direction
My faith is shaking
But I gotta keep trying
Gotta keep my head held high

There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb

(the song then goes on and the final lyrics I relate to are:)

I've just gotta keep going and
I gotta be strong
Just keep pushing on...

Yes. I stayed the same on my last weigh in. Yes, I was annoyed but when I look at the bigger picture - I have lost 4 whole big stones and half a pound. But, like the highlighted words in the lyrics say... It ain't about how fast I get there. I WILL get there. I will not give up and although this week I have been feeling HUGE - and I don't know why... because I am 213 days on the wagon. Point for point. I have never cheated. And for that. I am proud.
