Depressed and no motivation--HELP!
Hi Janie, depression I totally understand. Losing 28 lbs I can greatly appreciate and so should you. By losing it slower like you are doing, will help keep the excess flabby skin down. Just beef up your excercise program and build you flab into muscle, but don't forget to get in your water and protein. I can't get mine in and I have had to pay the price. I lost a lot of hair, and it's just now starting come back in. I don't have the energy to get in my excercise because I am always tired. I have become really weak not just because I just had the tummy tuck, or because of the leukemia, I stay tired. I never counted calories, I don'****ch my carbs, and I continue to still lose weight. Janie, you can decide if you want to be happy with what you have lost or you can choose to be unhappy with the amount. I choose to be happy with my loss, but inside I am crying. I'm not happy inside and there's nothing I can do to make it go away. I am slowly dying and I know it's tearing me apart. I have no regrets of having the surgery or the tummy tuck. I just didn't plan on having to deal with the emotional aspect of having leukemia.
You can over come the obsticals and make yourself lose, by following the programs tool. I can't over come mine. I can laugh on the outside, pray for others, be happy for others or cry for them, but inside I am not happy. I'm going to die and it will be a painful death. I have been informed that my blood work regarding my liver came back abnormal. It's been sent to my oncologist. But so far I haven't been able to find out what the problem is. I'm sorry for going on. Get with a support group, and remember this board is full of support to help you thru all this.
May God be with us all, Kathy
