A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step
Wild week

W/ my mother in the hospital and my having to have a phlebotomy treatment I am very fatigued the last 3 days. I was forced to take the last 2 days off from exercising and it's freaking me out.
I am trying to get a grip because this is a LIFESTYLE change and my life is difficult w/ health issues which is how I gained this weight in the first place. So I really need to give myself a break for laying down for 2 days and eating most of my WPA's. The truth is I needed the calories to regain my strength.
I am still On Program but I was OP last week and gained a pound and a half. I am not used to doing so much about weight loss and not seeing any results. It's getting hard to stay positive.
On a positive note, i went out socially on Tuesday, I had been hiding from all my friends because of the weight gain. I have always been very thin so it is really hard to be around people when I am heavy.
People always comment because they equate my health with my weight which is no indication of how I am doing. I guess people think if I am heavier I must be healthier but such is not the case. It really makes me very uncomfortable.
So I went out, saw a ton of people and braved the comments. I was very proud of myself. Don't get me wrong I was still very self conscience but I figured "You gotta work with what ya got" and I wound up having a nice time in spite of myself.

I'm glad that your mother is doing better. Vi please give yourself a break! Relax a little...you're doing great! Especially with the health issues you have.
 I'm so proud of you for being social on Tuesday!! I'm pretty anti social but it's not because of weight. I just don't like being around people.  See this is a NSV for you!!  You definitely gotta work with what ya got!!! I'm a big girl and have always been a big girl but I'm cute and I clean up pretty darn nicely! It has taken me a long time to really accept myself big body and all. I'm cute and you are too!! |

Bottom line: Don't beat yourself up and this is why: You know what you need to do, what you need to eat, and how to control yourself. Just because health issues have you stalled right now, doesn't mean you have personally failed or given up on your diet! Right now, you should focus on caring for your body so it's in the best condition for weight loss!!
