Still kind of stuck....

Hi folks,

I'm noticing my weight hasn't really moved in months. I'm still about 12 pounds from my surgeons' goal. I've realized I stopped TRYING too aroudn the same time. No exercise, some bad eating habits, and pushing the envelope of good sense, for sure. I know I'm comfy right now, and am really petrified that I'll start gaining. I'm still down around 80 or so pounds but worry that won't last. It can't....if I don't get a handle on this I'm in trouble down the road and I know it! 

I DO bring good stuff to work with me, protein drinks and soy chips, and I make tood choices for hte most part. My therapist says it's a lapse, but not a relapse. I'm not so sure I agree with that. Either way, I'm trying to watch things. Since I'm not exercising, it's no wonder my weight isn't moving, but I cannot find the motivation to get off my butt. I'll try and walk again tonight and set some priorities for myself. Putting myself first isn' t easy....

Marie

Marie, Hi Doll, if it means anything...

I've gained 5 pounds in the past 3 weeks.

It's this time of year.

Hi Marie,
I empathize because I have been stuck for over a year.  Since I relapsed on the alcohol, the food has been quirky.  I already gained back 30, which makes my goal weight 50 pounds away.  Discouraged is not a powerful enough word for how I feel about it all.

I just keep plugging away, one day at a time.  If I did more self-soothing, I would probably be more successful.

Don't give up.

Hugs,
trish
