Had a crazy past month

Alright! I have been doing well, but the past month I have had some set backs. Not in a huge amount, but things that I wish had not have set me back. I still lost weight ( only about 2 lbs, which is on the smaller scale for me but it seems once every 3 months my body likes to have a mini plateau and then I drop 1 lb per week for the rest of the time) Since about the beginning of August I worked two 120 hour pay periods, and during that time it was hard getting myself to work out so my 4-5 work outs a week turned into 2-3. Well two weeks ago I finally had some time off and the 2-3 work outs per week remained the same. This past week of course was labour day and I came down with an extreme version of the flu. I thought it would be best to hold off working out until I felt better. Tomorrow begins a new week and I am excited to get back on schedule, but not as excited as I think I should be. I hate it that I've used all these excuses to hold me back and I do not want to hold myself back any longer. I am back on my regular work schedule, I am healthy, I can do this!

I guess I just want to be more enthusiastic! I'm only 8lbs away from my goal, I need to have a fire under my *kitten* and I want that fire under my *kitten* but right now I just have some warm coals!

Any suggestions?
