juanab's Journal, 04 July 2008

Following my melt down (which did not show up in a weight loss) my daughter, and several fs friends sat me down and had a talk with me. While I am not there yet I am better and I thank you for your kind words and prayers. They were less harsh than the talking to from my youngest. It has been decided that I WILL be taking a full week off from work and hopefully going somewhere. This plan, I believe will involve exercise as walking is the only way I can afford to go anywhere.
Food is not an issue for me as I am having no problems eating it. I will address the type at a later date (probably Sunday). This weekend for the holiday I am going to enjoy myself, have a drink and watch people blow up there gas money. One person came in to my office and stated they had used there entire stimulus check on fireworks. Makes my temporary insanity seem healthy.

You have obviously passed great wisdom on to your daughters, lovely one. She has helped you take that first lil step, the one that is always THE most difficult. Now that you are on the way - it truely will get better...for now... Enjoy your weekend.

Glad to hear that your derailment has been temporary and you'll be on track in no time! Have a safe 4th and a successful week off! :)

I can completely understand your meltdown. You and I have to be two of the slowest losers in the whole world!! It gets really frustrating. And I feel the same as you do - I can be positive for everyone else, but have a problem keeping myself motivated. And yet - we both continue to lose...however little at a time it is. Remember, we are ALMOST to 20lbs!! Think of what a milestone that will be. Does that not lift your spirits just a little? More importantly, I think your wise daughter is right - you have been working very hard and it's time for a break. Let's try to think of something fun and cheap you can do that will make you feel like you deserve to take care of yourself - I'll consider that my personal challenge!
