BPaula47's Journal, 06 November 2016

Hi gang!

Had a much better day today. woke up feeling a little blue still, but was determined to shake it off today. So, i made sure i got my workout in. I took suggestions up here and watched three comedy specials including an old one from wanda Sikes that i hadn't seen before. I laughed so hard i think i disturbed my upstairs neighbors. i looked up a few songs on the youtube and danced a little. i finally got to talk to that friend i tried to call yesterday and i ate well and without guilt today. Over all, a pretty good recovery day. i even got in a chapter of a good book i've read before and am reading again, a fun scie fi novel by Lois Masters bujou.

I think i'm ready for the scale tomorrow. I'm syking myself up to not let what it says get me overly emotional...unless it's good news.

Oh, i tried to find one of the documentaries someone mentioned up here, but had no luck. I did find one on HBO about the science of weight loss. It was a quickie doc and what i got out of it was that your body is sometimes...most times, bound and determined to keep you at the weight it's used to and that's why it can be hard to maintain weight loss, especially if you try to go back to your old eating habits. the doc said it works that way for heavy people as well as slender people. the body wants to maintain not let go of weight. so what i got was that i'm going to have to keep a good monitor on my food intake for...well, ever. and i may need to increase my exercise on a regular basis and not get complacent so basically, it's pretty much what they have been telling me at the Clinic, 'this is a life time commitment"; a race for the long haul and not a sprint. Okay.
got it.

take care, ya'll. I'm sending out prayers and blessings. have a great week.

Good going, make a conscious effort to wake up with a smile and think of all the good things you are blessed with and always be positive.

Glad you are hanging in there. I've been hearing/reading a great deal lately about the wiring of the brain to react to sugar/flour like an addict's brain. I decided to take the quiz over at BrightLineEating.com and I scored a 10 out of 10. I've been following the 4 basic guidelines since Tuesday last week and I'm down 6 lbs as of this morning. It's been a most amazing thing and I am hopeful that it will help me in the long haul. Check out the Bright Line Eating website. There are some helpful vlogs on there, too. Good luck with your weigh in on Monday.
