Topic: revolving door
so i am a revolving door on this huge weight loss issue
so i have had a really stressful weekend so far there are times I am just overwhelmed by doing it all on my own that is is just too much to take
did all the tricks, journalled, went to the park and played with the kids etc
BUT, i actually ate a whole chocolate bar and had a little ice cream yesterday and feel awful bout it
so revolving in my head, can't control these stressful eating patterns = 100% need WLS
OK doing Ok on the diet etc = I can do this without WLS
i need a break to re-group and take care of some stuff, maybe i can find a way to take some time off work and relax, take some time for myself and exercise every single darn day...i want to sooo bad and i am also looking to see if I can rent some exercise equipm't, can;'t afford to buy, no time to join gym but i need it at home so i can do it when they kids eat dinner or when they go to bed etc..
anyways, just floundering this weekend...flip..flop..flip..flop

Let us know where you booked your tickets for....I'm sure you'll do it!!
I just tried on a pair of black jeans that I bought a few months ago hoping they would fit before I went on vacation in April. Needless to say I couldn't even get them up over my hips. Well, just tried them on and I'm wearing them out to dinner tonight! They're a little snug but I'm wearing them anyway cause they make me feel SKINNY!!

Topic: RE: WW Weigh-In #2
Thank you SO MUCH for the encouragement!! You truly are my inspiration! I check your website often to track your progress. You must feel like a whole new woman. I'm not going to get discouraged. I don't care HOW LONG IT TAKES....I'm hitting goal this time.
Topic: RE: WW Weigh-In #2
Sherri you're doing great! A lot of times after a large loss, the body has to adjust. I've been doing WW for 4+ years and in my first month I had larger losses followed by gains! It was so frustrating because I was 100% on program. But, things began to even out and I had steady losses. I still have undeserved gains occasionally, but it's to be expected.
Congrats on your first 2 weeks!!!

Hello!
Anyone out there??
What you been up to?
Slowly but surely I'm healing. I was up early and did my cardio walk...felt really good!
Today I'm proud I'm not giving up on my hopes to conquer my fear of flying.
I took an on-line course last night and today I'm taking another drastic step......Hypnotherapy. 
I've never been a big believer in the process but I'm open to give it a try. The flying lesson I did the other week did wonders but I'm not quite there yet so I need more help. Like I said, I'm glad I'm not giving up. Hopefully it will work for me today....If I come home and book tickets we'll know it worked.
So what about you??? What are celebrating and/or proud of??

I'll check back later to see what everyone has shared...

Good morning my fellow losers....lol
This morning I am once again proud that I pushed myself to walk. I'm still having some internal battles with having to exercise on a regular basis. Some is the fact I just don't want to swell but some and most of it is because I've been inactive for so long with recovering from 3 surgeries since Dec 2, 2009 that I've gotten soft/lax about doing it. BUT I am making progress. I was able to walk an hour today so I'm really happy about that....I'm up to 3.5 miles and that is more than enough for me to maintain my weight (If I do more I'll start losing again). I have a personal goal of getting to 5 miles again just so I know I can do it but I'm happy to hit 3!
How about you....what are you celebrating or proud of today?? Please share.
