....I have hardly been hungry. I was really busy over the 3 day weekend installing our new faux wood floors. My body still kind of hurts today. I was sure to keep drinking a lot of water, but I had to make myself eat. Today I am only at about 1000 calories and I am not hungry.

Part of it might be a little depression as my oldest son moved out to his own apartment today I miss him and of course I worry about him. Tomorrow is weigh day. I am praying for a good loss and hoping it cheers me up.

Awww, big hugs about your son leaving the nest I would just be sure not to make vlc an everyday or often thing, in my opinion.

Good luck with your weigh in

I can't imagine my oldest moving out. Of course your oldest movie out just means you as a mom have done your job well. Your child has grown up into an adult who no longer has to be supported. He can stand on his own two feet now.

As a mother of two grown sons, I can relate. But believe me, they will come back!!.... when they need a good hot meal, clean clothes, or they start missing you just as much as you miss him!

awwwww ((hugs)) you'll bounce back. Tomorrow is a new day.

Thanks everyone. I am proud of my son that he has the confidence to venture out on his own, but my heart hurts that he isn't here. I still have his 14 yo and 6 yo brothers at home. I am sad that I have been fat most of their lives. When my oldest was little I was in good shape, but I worked full time, he was in daycare and I once I became a SAHM I started to gain the weight. I have NEVER been on a bike ride with my oldest and I am sad. The years fly by so fast and my 14 yo will be off to college before I know it. I want this weight off so I can make some memories with the two I have at home. Not that we don't have fun memories yet, but a bike ride or hike would be cool!

All that said, I lost 4 pounds this week! I weighed in this morning at 241..... WOOT!!

Great Job on the loss!!!! You will get there before you know it.
awwww (((hugs))) Maybe at some point you can have a Saturday afternoon with your oldest and go for a bike ride.
