10 April 2022

I have lately, lost weight, from being sick. This end part, of winter, of 2022. Though, it is so exciting, to see that happen. We often forget, one, very important thing. And, I did, myself, this time, too. We usually regain that weight, back up, when we get better. So, though, it is exciting, when that happens, for me anyways, I regain it. So far, I regained half of it. So, I scrounge, drastically, to keep it off! While, still going on, with my efforts.

This time, I tried to do low carb., but not real low carb. The problem, with that is your fat goes up, your calories go up, and sometimes, not always you may eat too much protein, or let's put it another way, more protein then your burning, cause your not active, enough. And, in my case, I am a vegetarian, but struggle to eat more vegetables. Heck, I have struggled with both, with OCD, and eating disorders. Weight Watchers is great, if you want to spend more more to do so.

However, they cannot help your disorders or make you exercise, or make your healthy food choices for you. They can only recommend, encourage you, and give you pointers, and tips. The rest, is sill going to be up to you. ultimately. This is the why, I use to tell my leader, I am hungry, I am hungry, I use to tell her. Something, was wrong, for sure. However, my idea of dieting to loose with, meant you must go hungry, or even starve. Either that, or always, to put myself at the back burner, if you will.

I finally, made up my mind today. What is your weak points, I just asked myself? Okay!? Getting back to walking, Okay!? Focusing on fresh fruits and vegetables. Yes, we can get more sugar from fruit juice, perhaps, not have as much. Okay!? Not having your bread, nor pasta, mostly, bread for me. I have not had that today, for a week. And, I have cut down on the sugars, like a lot!

However, I saw today, I am perhaps a pound up, or stayed the same. I am saying this because the body fluctuates. So, that is why we get so discouraged when we hop on that scare more than once a day. And, I get discouraged, like, a lot! I will try to also post this on a blog, I have for we need to stay encouraged, rather than discouraged. So, one small step at a time, and one thing to change, at a time!

Sometimes, we can be so close to the top, of the hill, then we just give up, or not give ourselves that extra push, meaning that is a good and sensible way, of course. It reminds me of two stories, my favorite WW leader, had told us. And, yes, I stayed for the meeting talk part of the program, and I really did listen, and more than that, I remembered what the leader, had said, back then! My most favored leader, Carol, bless her heart!

The two stories were, as follows, stinking thinking, kind of self explanatory! And, the all, or nothing, meaning, with stinking thinking! Food, and stuff, like that, of course. The next, was about the three frogs, falling into a bucket. The two did nothing, and had the consequences, for it, and the third one, kept trying, and trying, till it jumped out of the bucket. I was kind of like that frog, I tried, and tried! Through, those years, not being able to jump out of that bucket.

It was not because, I did not try, perhaps, I put myself last. Or, I was always, so close, to that hill. But, needed that extra correct push! And, I did not know, exactly how, at the time! Perhaps, the journey, that I was on, was too challenging, for me. Because, of other factors, or things! Who knows, what? I am not trying, to make excuses, for myself, I am not made of, being that way.

However, I am finally, trying, to understand myself, as well as, have more love, for myself. More patience, for myself. More encouragement, for myself. And, a way, to find, how can I keep on going, with so much on my plate. From this journey, called life.! Yet, also, not giving up, my dream. And, neither, should you, for weight loss!

So, I tell you, take one day, at a time! Take that one pound, at a time! We can really, do this! It just takes some skill, or skills! As we all learn, from our own journey, in this life!
