Wyllenn~Thanks for the input. I think that's what it comes down to. What do I want more good health or that donut? Sometimes though, the donut can look pretty good.
JuleeCees~ It sounds as if your friend is suffering a little from both the green eyed monster (jealousy), the black eyed monster (depression) and anger at herself. Come to think of it, there may be quite a few things going on there. She lost and regained the weight, on all sorts of meds…everyone seems to be having a better life than her. Maybe she ripped into you because she thought you were strong enough to handle it. Maybe this is her way of reaching out.
HearstheWaters~ I’m sorry about your loss. I can’t imagine what you are going through and I hope things are a little better. I get the same thing. I’m 5’7”. Not very tall but whenever I tell the select few I have how much I weigh they just can’t believe it. I want to scream sometimes ‘Believe it! Believe it! Because then I’ll believe it and get off my butt and do something about it.’ I find myself falling into that mindset sometimes that I’m not really that overweight because I don’t look it.
Ammi~ Thanks for the motivating words. I have to focus on this day forward and forget about all those times I failed (except to learn what not to do). I do understand about how expensive it is to buy good healthy food. I’m trying to buy organic and it is soooo expensive. I did it last year and lost weight (I exercised too) but I felt so good and then I just couldn’t foot the tab anymore and then, I’m not sure what happened but it just went downhill from there. So I guess you do the best you can.
I don’t get belly rash, however, I did get a rash under the boobies once but now that I think about it, I think it had more to do with a bad reaction to my laundry detergent than anything else.
Andrea & Neurotica~ Congratulations on the weight loss! You go girls!
that is fantastic news that you are down 6 lbs. Isn't it just fantastic to see a loss like that.
