I managed to reach my tipping point today when my blood pressure was a bit high for me. If have been struggling with a very special Charlie Horse (deep in my pelvis) that happened after exercising, for which I M currently in PT.
I gained 15 pounds on top of the 25 i needed to lose.
My life got complicated recently: I'm moving to Germany, leaving the first job I ever really loved, and am entrusting my house and horses to caretakers. I need to get rid of this extra weight so I can deal with everything better in my body.
Recently I read the far chicks book (I'm a librarian) and found myself moved by my sisters and brothers out there. I have pretty shakey self-esteem sometimes, so any recoomendations for books/CDs/workbooks to work on that over the next year (before my next move to upstate NY!) would be gratefully taken.
I have had limited luck with weight watchers: it works to a point, then I get frustrated. I get annoyed with their reliance on processed convenience foods and it just goes down hill from there. I need to maintain my prigam choice
any where, so I think I will try using the French system, using journalling & healthy guidelines to start. Having buddies will help. If anyone is in Dresden, or upstate ny, let me know.
I know I can pull it all together, I am just a bit lost at the moment.
