Disappointment

Things were going good for too long. I had my weekly weight check yesterday and I didn't lose any weight. I'm still the same as the week before, therefore I couldn't schedule my surgery. My fault because I was bad last week. I ate some things I shouldn't have (PMS week). Then to top it off I saw a woman I don't normally see. She went through the Food Diary I have to keep and picked it apart for the "bad choices" I made. I was diappointed enough to find out that I couldn't schedule then she had to add insult to injury by telling she doesn't think I am "mentally prepared the surgery yet". I felt like I was a child again being scolded for doing something wrong. I have changed sooo many of my bad habits in such a short amount of thime, I'm bound to slip up every now and then. Or am I mistaken? Anyway I've vowed to myself that I am going to good this week. My next appointment is the 16th. I'm going to lose so I can schedule! Barb

Hi Barb! First of all you need to stop beating yourself up!!!!!!! We are only human and we all have those days when we fall off track. My opinion of the woman who said you are not mentally ready is "ARE YOU ME ?????? NO SO DON'T TELL ME WHAT KIND OF MENTAL STATE I AM IN. LET ME SEE HER DIARY! I bet she would have some no no's in there to ya know. Just try to start a new day and that's all yu can do. Good luck and may you have an uncomplicated surgery and a speedy recovey!!!!!!! {{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}} Evelyn 247/139/past goal

Barbara, Hun, I know how you are feeling becuase I am doing a 6 months weight loss program, going to a nutrionist for the last 3 months now and 3 more months to go. I know the feeling when you talk to them they sometimes can make you feel like when you are not "perfect" on your menu plan........happen to me this last time because we had a house fire and were in a hotel so I could not eat the best food but she said I could have chosen "better" choices.........and she is right but it was a hard time for me but sometimes they just can NOT understand..... I hope you get your date scheduled the next visit hun and hang in there...... if you need to talk just email me...... Debra P

Barb: Hi! Please do not ever allow anyone to put you down. Until that woman has walked in your shoes, she has no right criticizing you. So, you had a bad week, you didn't gain and you can do better this week. Before you know it your date will be scheduled and you will be on the losing side. Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers.
