 &lt;p&gt;I am almost willing to forgive Starbucks for the zucchini muffin debaucle after today. I just got back from my Saturday morning walk and coffee ritual, and I treated myself to a wonderful little Rio Citrus Salad. It was made of fresh grapefruit, orange, and pineapple chunks, interspersed with a few crunchy red grapes. Really refreshing and tasty, and served in a nice 100 calorie portion. Yum!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Saturday is my normal &amp;ldquo;official&amp;rdquo; weigh in day. But I have decided to take a break from the scale for a week or two. I&amp;rsquo;ve had a frustrating couple of weeks. I&amp;rsquo;ve upped my exercise significantly and I&amp;rsquo;ve been watching my calories, yet my weight has gone up. The math just doesn&amp;rsquo;t make sense. Normally, I would just be able to shrug it off and keep going, but this time, it&amp;rsquo;s really getting to me. I&amp;rsquo;m getting into that frame of mind where I&amp;rsquo;m obsessing over my weight. I&amp;rsquo;m catching myself stepping on the scale multiple times a day, which I NEVER used to do. For my own sanity, I need to take some time to stop focusing on numbers and just focus on eating well and moderately and being active. That&amp;rsquo;s going to be easier said than done.&lt;/p&gt;
