Anyone else just not care?

I don't care what I weigh. I don't own a scale, and I don't feel the need to jump on one. I don't care what I weigh or how much I've lost. I'm eating better than I ever have. I am never hungry and never full. I'm eating on a plan that my surgeon and nutritionist gave me. I'm wearing clothes in sizes I never thought I'd see again. I am free from compulsive eating and cravings. My energy level has gone through the roof, and I am able to do things I haven't done in years. I'm divorcing my husband. He left on Friday, and I feel peaceful, relaxed and energized. I'm cleaning the house in preparation for showing it in order to sell it. I worked for hours at a time, non-stop, this weekend. I used to have to break down my cleaning into 15 minute intervals and then rest for 30 minutes because my back and knees would be killing me. I used to have to ask the kids to help pick things up off of the floor because I couldn't bend. Not this weekend! I feel invincible.

I am so glad you are doing well. Good for you, taking care of you!! ~~ Betsy

Oddly, I care more now than before. When I was gaining 10 lbs a year I finally broke the cycle by relaxing and not caring anymore. Figured if it killed me, then so be it. But that's when I leveled off. Now I've had surgery and the medical team always measures progress on the scale. Before surgery I had to lose weight to make the operation safer and that was scale measured. I'm afraid I've flipped sides but I certainly know where you are coming from. Perhaps I'll get back there one day. Sorry to hear about the turmoil in your life right now but it sounds like you are "cleaning house" in every sense of the term and are going to be in a better place both physically and emotionally. That may be tough to live through but it has to be a Good Thing in the end. Keep up the good work and post back with updates! -- T.Rob

I'm a scale addict. I fully admit it. I enjoy knowing how much I've lost. lol I found a tub downstairs full of size medium and size large winter clothes. I haven't worn them in years! We tossed 30 contractor bags full of "stuff" and a bunch of other things have blessed others as we laugh to see how much "stuff" isn't in our front yard hour to hour. lol Sometimes cleaning out the clutter is a wonderful thing! Clutter doesn't have to be just "stuff". It can be body clutter or people clutter. Obviously you lost a lot of "people clutter" when the hubby left. I'm so happy you're feeling great about it. You're really brave. Best wishes in your new journey!!!!! * Cyndi *

I am addicted to the scale. I wasn't at first but I guess I need the reassurance. It gives me a boost. Glad to hear that you are full of energy and feeling good. Hugs, Esther
