New Week, Same Story
Despite not being able to exercise much last week, I did manage to lose a couple of pounds. I have now lost a total of 14 pounds in 2 months. I have to remind myself that that isn’t bad. I’m doing it the right way and that this time it will stay off. I just have trouble not getting depressed with the slowness of the whole process. I really don’t care that it took me over a decade to put on the 100 plus pounds from my lowest weight as an adult. I want it gone and I want it gone now! Of course, it would help if I didn’t have to deal with depression in the first place, but I do, so I will. Today is just a bit of a downer because I’m tired and sore.

On the upside, my kids don’t want to stay inside at all. Yesterday we all walked around the block (a half mile) and my 18 month old walke the whole thing himself. My daughter will walk about a mile before wanting to get in the stroller and this was the first time my husband had been home to go out with the kids. No way I’m dealing with two little ones walking beside a busy street on my own. Now I just need to clean up the back yard so they can play out there.

Good luck to everyone on the Blue and Red teams today.
It’s not always easy to stay up when you get frustrated like that! Just a note…look at other things that are going on with you…how do you feel now that you are losing weight? How do you feel after you have exercised? Have you tried looking at you measurements instead of just at the scale? Depression sucks…but at least you are trying to fight it in a good way! You can do this! You can take off all the weight, just take it one step at a time!
Take care! God Bless!

Hello Diane,
Great job on your weight loss of 14 lbs. I totally understand your frustration. I’m in the same boat. We all are…. It seems to take so long to get it off and then if you are a compulsive eater as I am, it can seem like an up hill battle. Hang in there. It’s one day at a time.
God bless you.
