Some weight lost which is a step in the right direction
After putting on so much, especially over the festive period, I have tried to get my act together. I hadn't wanted to write how I was feeling because I was so down and disappointed in myself.
My health has definitely deteriorated, I seem to be in a constant fibromyalgia flare up.
I can't walk as far as I used to and as for stairs, I have to walk crab-like, pausing with both feet on each step before attempting the next step. My balance is awful and to my embarrassment I fell over going down a couple of steps when my sister and brother-in-law took me out to a garden centre recently. Luckily I didn't really hurt myself but my pride and confidence were well battered 😢 and of course my sister, bless her, kept making a fuss which just confounded my feelings of low self worth.
I have lost some weight now and feel I am a bit more in control of my eating/calorie intake as I am more mindful of what I eat and I stopped drinking alcohol at the beginning of the year. I am also avoiding gluten which has always been a bit of a problem for me.
I have started walking with my neighbour again but very slowly and only for about 20 minutes every day.
I know I need to increase my activity levels and definitely have to work on my flexibility as my range of movement is incredibly limited but it hurts so much it makes my motivation zero. I know things won't get any better unless I take control, man up and do something but I'm really struggling
Sorry for the long whinge and for feeling sorry for myself but I thought maybe if I wrote it all down it might motivate me
😔

😱 Disappointed in myself but not at all surprised. We have had nonstop visitors for over a month and still more to come so I have eaten and drunk to my hearts content with the inevitable consequences.
I need to try and have more self restraint as I'm not happy or comfortable being heavier and I really don't feel that good physically, bloated, lethargic, and my fibromyalgia has not been good.
It's so difficult when you are the host and trying to make sure everyone has enough nice tasty food and drink to keep them happy and not indulge yourself. I must confess to being a bit of a 'feeder' as I love cooking and seeing people enjoying my food.
Normality won't return until January when we have a lull in visitors. I think the only way forward, so my guests don't realise I'm worried about my weight is to drink less alcohol and have much smaller portions.
4 days until the next entertaining begins so a little bit of time to eat more sensibly 😉
