After almost 6 months off, I've restarted at Medithin Weight Loss Clinic. I lost 27 lbs. last March on the program. My mother also passed away in the middle of the month. I was off work all but one day in March. It was extremely traumatic losing her. It actually caught me off guard the effect that it had on me. I actually quit my job at the end of March, but my boss, realizing that I might not be making good decisions in my current emotional state, asked to meet with me and she wanted me to stay. I did. Looking back, I am so grateful she did that. I have a great job and I've been here 14 years.
As soon as I returned to work on April 2nd I started eating. And eating. And eating. I have gained all my weight back and then some. But I am not disheartened.
I am learning to be nicer to myself, more forgiving of myself. I am very open-minded and tolerant of other people, I am learning to be that way with myself. I am a loving, caring person. The only person I've turned my back on is myself. I've long known the reasons why - it's time to move on from the past. I have never done anything to anyone that is unforgivable. I have a loving man. We have wonderful daughters and three fantastic grandchildren. We both have good jobs even when so many in this country do not and are suffering. After three years together, the last year living together, we love each other more than ever and we have great respect and liking for each other. We truly enjoy each other's company and we see the world the same way. I think that's a huge key to couples staying together. I am truly blessed.
Six months have passed now since my mother's death. I look back at March and it is a blur of the hospital, nursing home, cancer diagnosis, fear, and lots and lots of tears. I am much better now. There are days when I will be hit with such a strong urge to speak with my mother that missing her in that moment takes my breath away. I know some people still talk to their loved ones after they pass and some say they can "feel" their loved ones around them. I didn't feel that with my grandparents, nor do I since my mom has been gone. I do dream about each of them, not often, but when I do it's like seeing them. It makes me sad and happy at the same time. Maybe that's their way of connecting with me. Who really knows?
Last week my BF went to MWLC to start the program. I didn't know he was going to do that, but when he did, I told him I would restart and we could help each other out. He was very supportive of me before, but it was difficult being the only person on the program. He has to do some things different because he's diabetic and I'm not. If his blood sugar gets too low, he needs to have milk or some carbs to increase it. His blood sugar had been very high lately, which I didn't know, which is what prompted him to go to the clinic. His blood sugar has been normal most of the time and a few times has gotten a little too low. He's adjusting his insulin. Wouldn't it be fabulous if someday he wouldn't need to take medicine anymore? Can that really happen?
I'm on day five. I can't wait for my first weigh in. I know this program works. I saw it work for me in March and I know it will work again. I am strong enough to stick to it until my goal weight, when I can add more carbs back into my daily diet until I find the balance where I won't gain or lose weight.
