I have been a member of FS off and on for almost a year now and have lost nine lbs. During this time I have had a fair amount of trauma; my Mom's death, moving her things and my things out, putting up with some obnoxious sisters, finding a place for myself and then finally selling my Mom's house.
I have gone up and down with having pre diabetes and being really good about exercising and having every excuse to not do it. Also found out I had severe sleep apnea which was good because I thought I was getting chronic fatigue syndrome. Now I just have to use a machine at night and I feel pretty good! Dodged a bullet there.
I still need to lose over 30 lbs. I want to be positive and tell myself that at least through all of this I still lost nine lbs. But my health issues are becoming serious enough so that I need to lose more. Writing things down is so easy and yet I blow it off so many times. Why do I do it to myself? Any suggestions out there? Yes, I have to love myself to have the fortitude to stick with take care of myself. I have all kinds of healthy recipes so I just need to cook them. My Mom was a cookie monster who never gained weight so I don't have to worry about sweets in the house anymore. I'd still rather have my Mom around!
I am just venting as we all do. For those who have read this, thanks.
