Patience is not my forte

Did I really think that just 2 weeks of doing this fitness reboot would make a difference? Yes.
As evidenced by previous posts, clearly the mental fitness has not kicked in; I had at least hoped to drop 2-3 lbs of the 5 I put on this winter. Has not happened. I have given up ice cream, drink tea (herbal, no sweetener), and had more complete breakfasts (cereal WITH banana, oatmeal WITH raisins and nuts). Still holding steady at the 5-lb-over-desired-weight mark.
