Honestly the worst thing about weight loss is that it is just so damn boring ..

I mean, you want it to be exciting, you jump up like it is your birthday, weigh yourself, plan out your meals, eat a little something, record your weight ..

Yeah and then that's pretty much it for 24 hours.

I don't even know how many times I've graphed the same weight loss, looking at patterns, being all excited because of another quarter pound, .. but it is like waiting with excitement for Christmas to come, except it is March and Christmas doesn't come until December.

I'm old enough that I know better than to wish time away, but when you are on CICO and you are eating at a deficit, and you know at the end of the rainbow you'll move back up to maintenance, you kind of wouldn't mind getting there ..

Even the setbacks are boring.

It's like watching paint dry. Or .. more like watching dried paint get old and flake off, one little piece at a time, bit by bit .. s l o w l y ... o v e r ... t i m e ...

It. is. so. bore. ing.

**leans back and stares at the ceiling**

Yet it is the consistency, the day to day grind that does the job .. it ain't rocket science. It is just doing the same. boring. thing. every. single. day.
