Daily Maintenance Weigh In - Thursday, July 25, 2013

152.2 - I reverted back to some emotional eating yesterday. I know it's not the way to deal with the crap that going on right now.

I start back to a normal work schedule on Monday. I'm happy to have something else to think about. My daughter was invited to go on a 1 week trip with her best friend's family. She leaves tomorrow. My son starts a day camp for smart kids in high school.

I have WLS group meeting tonight. I haven't been able to go in a couple of months and I'm kind of looking forward to it. We'll see how it goes. The new people running it are annoying and talk to us like children. The nutritionist gets all defensive when we ask her food questions. None of them work for my doc.

You all have a glorious day!

156.3

So, I had two cake balls for breakfast. FML

Seriously, my eating isn't stellar, but no where NEAR enough to be gaining a ******g pound a day. It has to be the meds and this incredible stress.

I'm just being kind to myself right now. I feel like all I do is complain the past two weeks. I'm not sure how much more I can take to be honest. Off to therapy this morning. So she can tell me to be kind to myself and blah blah blah. I want to punch a kitten. I'm so ****** up right now.

Candy, hang in.  I'm sorry you're feeling awful, but considering everything you're going through, I think you're bearing up AMAZINGLY WELL!!!  For one, you're still on here and you're still thinking about your food choices. Also, you're venting your feelings instead of just eating through them.  If I were in the kind of pain you're in, I wouldn't even bother with my weight, or think about what I'm eating - I'd just do whatever it takes to drown out the pain. If that means food, then so be it!  So I really appreciate and admire that you're walking this fine line between controlling your pain, your emotions, and your food.  Well done and bravo!

Your surgery is soon, no?  I hope you get some relief, maybe not immediately after, but soon after. 

I'll be sending you good vibes today and in the coming days!

Surgery 7/31. I'm just done with everything. If anything else goes South before then, I may need a rubber room. Thanks. xoxo

You got to your ultimate goal feeling like ****on-a-stick. Nothing can take that from you.

Sucks that you are going through this.

Lots of hugs to you. 

Giving you your daily hug:)  A few more and it becomes a habit !!  lol

Right? We should just start a new thread "Give Candy a hug today because everything is ****** up"

Sigh. I HATE being like this. Honestly, nothing else can go wrong right now. Unless I cut off my arm or something. I hate being the needy girl. I really really hate it.

Having said that, I learned last year during my neck fusion that when I need help or a hug or a smack upside the head, I have to ask for it.

119.9 today. Having a ****ball hungry day today, started last night after work and it feels like it will never end. I hate fighting this constant gnawing feeling, most of which I am sure is JUST IN MY HEAD.

Sometimes, a gnawing feeling could be increased acid production.
