losing 2.6 lb a week
17 May 2018
Shoot, it's been a bit rough lately. I haven't been keeping track of my food intake at all. I have excuses but I hate excuses. I just didn't put enough effort in. I'm only up a pound but I am mostly disappointed that I was negligent in making any effort at all. Sometimes that is the thing I do. I don't take care of myself. Got myself in this mess and I keep trying to figure out why I did it. All the excuses I keep coming up with are a bit flat. Yes I have had some medical issues that have kept me from moving as much as I was but you know what, somebody, somewhere at some point has had something much worse and it didn't stop them. I had hip surgery, I didn't loose a leg. I had a bought with some pretty awful back pain, but it resolved I am not 100% but at least 70% and somewhere somebody can't walk and they make more of an effort then me. So why do I not put an effort into taking care of my health? I can't quite figure out why I neglect that aspect of my life so much. I go through spurts, but as soon as things get tough it is the first thing I let slide. Me. I forget to be kind to Me.

gaining 0.5 lb a week
11 May 2018
So here comes Mother's Day, what I used to refer to as a Hallmark Holiday. I guess it is a nice time to honor your mother but why wait for a special day. Tell her you lover any and every day. Buy her flowers just because, pick up the phone and call for no reason or go have dinner with her during the week. Why do we need a special day to show somebody they are special? I alway had a dislike for these holidays. It sheds light on the fact we forget to treat those we love special and show them how much we care that we need the excuse of a special day named for such. Mother's Day, Father's Day, Valentines day, to name the main ones. In retrospect it brings to attention the ones who don't have anyone to honor them on any day. A friend of mine calls Valentines Day "hey lets celebrate your still single day." and I reply "or here I am single again day." People get caught up in sending cards, flowers and gifts on these days, and in some cases its the most they have done all year. The media sells it and pays no nevermind to those who don't have a reason to celebrate. So this mother's day be kind to yourself if no one else will, be kind to somebody else who doesn't have anyone else to shower them with gifts. Put a random day on your calendar to send thinking of you flowers to your mom and really blow her mind in the middle of august when she least expects it. And if you find yourself alone don't compare your life to somebody else. Don't fall into the trap of the media telling you how its supposed to be. Take stock in what you have and be thankful. Snuggle your pet, call your friend, have a drink with your neighbor or go to church. We all have special lives and be thankful for yours because some are not as lucky to have what you have. Here's a great big Have a fantastical, celebration of life day!!

Obsession
I talked to a lady tonight who was obsessed with germs, and getting sick. As she talked my mind started wondering and I realized that I am amazed at what people obsess over. Weight is the biggest obsession by far for a good percentage of the population. I often weigh people daily in my business and before they even step on the scale they are making excuses. "I just ate lunch.", "I have on heavy shoes." the latter is my favorite. Dude if your shoes were that heavy you would have legs like a body builder. Kid yourself all you want the average shoe is no more than 2lbs. Trust me I have had to weigh them. Then there are the ones who will not even get on the scale. Which in turn I try to get them to turn around and not look but they even refuse that so I am clueless. Thing is your doctor does not do it to punish you but excessive or sudden weight gain can be a symptom of an underlying problem so its kinda for your own good. But people can really get freaked out about it.
I also can not understand obsessing about what you eat. I do count my calories and try to make good choices but I don't sit and berate myself when I don't make a good choice. I did it I enjoyed and its over on to tomorrow. I think you have to allow yourself some treats now and then. Food is for eating and enjoying and for vitality and life. There is a line between enjoying and overindulging. Like anything else. One drink does not turn you into an alcoholic. One bad meal won't blow the whole week and cause a weight gain anymore than one bowl of salad will make you loose weight. The worse thing I think people do is obsess over everything you eat. Get a hobby, go for a walk, or discuss the latest movie you saw. But please don't give me a rundown of everything you ate for the past two days. Your smarter than that, show it.
