GLAMMER's Journal, 23 August 2015

YIPPEE! I have NO IDEA how I lost 3 lbs last week, but I'll take it, LOL! When I went to the Y on Thursday for pool therapy, they said my membership was expired. No warning or word of this from either them or my insurance which is paying for it! They let me swim that day, & on Friday I called my insurance. They said they had paid my membership for 6 mos, now they'll pay 1/3, & the Y will pay 1/3, but I have to pay the rest. Only $16, & it's fair, but we truly can't afford it. Our daughters & son-in-law help us so much, I didn't want to ask them for more help. So I prayed. Oldest daughter came up SAT as usual, & suddenly the "Y" story just popped out! DD said "Mom, we're members, & adding $16 to our payment is no big deal!" ~ Apprently, a "big deal" is in the eyes of the beholder, as they say, LOL! So YAY, I get to continue with my pool therapy!
I have not been good with logging my food intake, & haven't been exercising at all since the crushing news at the Y. So HOW DID I LOSE 3 lbs??? I HAVE NO IDEA! In fact, I've been eating "bad stuff" that I normally never eat~ so WEIRD! This does go along with a troublesome problem I've been realizing I have. When I scrupulously track my daily foo intake, exercise, etc., I focus so much on these that I get crazy. If I lose a pound I eat more & gain it back, & if I gain a pound I get upset & depressed & eat more. I've tried not to do this, but it still happens! Does anyone else have this problem? Any thoughts or suggestions?

Glad you get to keep your Y. Kudos to DD! The body has its own way of dealing with food :) plus its a mental thing. Sometimes the extra food or type of food inspires the body to adjust like "Starving is over! I can burn calories now!" instead of squirreling it away as fat for the next time you don't feed it the nutrients it wants and can burn the calories readily. Mentally, we can sabotage ourselves. Such as "I'm doing good, I deserve...." I have been all over the place in all these, and more, areas. Give me a celebration or holiday, healthy eating is the last thing I care about! Then I work double time to get back on track!
