Thank you everyone for all of your support, a huge ((((hug)))) of thanks!
I was going to write my food journal yesterday but I decided maybe I'll just see how it goes. And I did the same today. So I really don't know how many points I'm eating. I'm just eating normal (whatever that is). This week I'm working during the daytime, thus I'm doing my workouts at 5am and its going well. I'm trying to see if not obsessing over what I eat will make a difference. I find when I write my journal, I may add food to cover the points but am not really hungry for it. After doing Weight Watchers consistently for 2 years and 2 months, and many times before that, I've come to the conclusion that I will take a break from it. My session ends in March and although it will be hard to not go, I think I may need it (even if its just for a bit).
I do agree with Nikosmommy, the more I workout the harder it is to lose weight. This was always my problem and one reason I was happy to have my beautiful girls. Sounds strange I know, but I knew I wouldn't be able to workout like a mad women anymore. When I came back to WW after my first daughter I was working out all the time, not sleeping...ever and the weight was staying put. After my second daughter I vowed to only workout 3X a week for a pretty long time and that equation worked better with losing weight. Now I'm back to the crazy mad women workout but its hard to go back and I enjoy what I'm doing now. Its a hard thing to understand what works and what works for me doesn't work for someone else and vice versa. But I have to say I really like the Insanity workouts!

sorry i never offered inspiration for your previous post...been off here for awhile, but you seem in a better frame of mind now (time heals all wounds, hey?)
as for taking a bread from WW, i think it's a good decision for you for now...see how it goes,
yay for ceasing the obsessing over every lil bite and just continuing to eat your normal healthy foods (you eat clean very regularly, moreso than most)...
continue to work towards your running goal and the rest will hopefully come!
oops...meant break not bread (hungry much, Tawney???lol)
Insanity workouts are the best!! Something about feeling as if you have pushed yourself to the brink and that you may just collapse into a puddle of goo is great! I share your love of the pain! :)
Keep up the good workouts but maybe eat a bit more when you do them. Your body could be fighting starvation mode if you work out too hard.
