And life goes on...it's been a while since I posted, but I am happy to say that I have been doing quite well. I have learned that when I am weak, I need to do my best to put myself in the best environment to help strengthen my resolve instead of weaken it. If that means that I can't spend time with people when I might want to or I have to put limits on people, then so be it. A couple of my sisters can't seem to get themselves to the point where they can even entertain trying to live healthier and I had to realize that if that means I can't spend as much time with them because their habits weaken me, then that's what I have to do. And I will.
So, I've been fighting and doing well. My WI two weeks ago I was down 4 lbs and last week's WI I was down 3.4 lbs. Past history tells me that after 2 big weeks in a row, this week may not be great. I think I am prepared for that. I hope to at least stay the same though, that would be great. So short term goal is to not be hard on myself if my WI is not great tomorrow.
I'm working out some, but not enough so I should try to do that more. Hopefully over the holidays I will do more of that while I am at home.
So...it's been 2 years since I seriously started my battle with my weight again and since then, I'm down 50.6 lbs, which is fantastic, but about a year ago I was down 66 lbs, so my first goal is to get back there, that would really feel great, then I can go even further. The thought of that is very exciting!
I'm looking forward to my holidays, to Christmas and to spending time with family.
