Happy Friday everyone!!! No loss to report this week, I am steady right now. I wish there was, but I know that it will come. I just have to be patient. My husband is going to start walking with me in the evenings, I just cannot stand walking with my sister in law, so I have been making excuses not to go. I feel like that makes me a super crappy person, but shes so hard to deal with.
I am frustrated with myself, I want to lose so badly, and then when I dont I find reasons to blame myself. I didnt walk enough, I ate too much, I am a failure. I know those are self destructive thoughts, but sometimes I cannot help but think those things. I want this so badly and I just know I am going to mess it up somehow.
I have had a rough week, emotion wise, I have been up and down, up and down all week. Its annoying. I definitely need this weekend to recharge.
Hope you all have a great Friday!

Klynn82 u keep moving foward. everything and every move you make consider it exercise. focus on you and ur goals. take ur walks alone lwith music."you time" remember stress is not our friend.. smile, even when u dont want to, release the cortisol, women generally have more stress.. now you go and get that goal.. and dont stop. you got this.. we are all moving towards that goal. you have an amazing weekend. 👍😁

I agree with Poison. Walk by yourself and think about the things that make you happy and all of the reasons you want to lose the weight. Of course having your hubby with will be great but if he can't make it, go alone. I find the peace and quiet are very relaxing.

Not wanting to spend time with someone that brings you down in any any way does not make you a crappy person at all. I just means you are a person that doesn't want to deal with crappy people which is smart. Go walk by yourself and zen out to music and if hubby goes with you cool. Don't knock yourself for not wanting to be around a negative influence, that is simply smart. I know that negative, destructive, inside ourselves is usually the loudest of them all but keep doing your best to ignore it because it lies. You are doing lots of good things for yourself and remember it ok to mess up (we all do it). Focus on recognizing it and taking action to move forward again. If you can't place trust in yourself yet, trust in your plan and keep working it. You can do it!

Negative self-talk is what gets us into these situations. Try and choose a different and positive word for yourself everyday. Soon it will become a habit and you will begin to become that person. Know that you are stronger then you think and that you can do this! Walking alone is a great thing for each of us to do. It gives us time to reflect and focus on what is important to us. Try not to be afraid to be alone. We are our own best friends and we know what is best for us. It will be nice to have your hubby walking with you but if he can't you can still give yourself that time to yourself. We are all behind you out here so hang in there and you'll reach your goal.

I had to distance myself from a crabby friend last year. We would meet once a week for lunch and I always ended up down and depressed after, because she is always negative, down and depressed. Now when I see her (about once a month) I don't dread the visit and can actually enjoy her again.

I recommend you find out your "Why".... Why did you start and Why it is important to you. Continue to get after it. One step, one rep, gets you closer. Be consistent. Stay strong; we're all cheering you on!!!

I understand Klynn82. I have felt these emotions for at least 40 years. I am almost to the point where I'm sick and tired of these thoughts. I've literally spent most of my life worrying about my weight. Seriously? You hang in there...you are NOT a failure and the fact that you are interested in your health and well-being makes you a winner in so many ways. You are an inspiration.

I dont mind walking alone, I actually prefer it, but when I started out walking, she asked if she could come along one night and I didnt want to be rude, so I said yes. She has since, taken over the walk, bringing the kids and the dogs, and she walks faster than I am able to right now, so it makes it harder on me. I figure, if I bring my husband along, he will keep pace with me, so I dont have to feel like I am holding them back. She is super negative and I just dont want to be around her. Its hard...I feel so bad today. I just want to crawl in bed and never get back out.

Keep your head up. If you don't get out of bed and go on, then negative people, including her, win. You're stronger than she is and you can focus and motivate :-)

get yourself a nice set of headphones, or even cheap ones, listen to ur favorite free music station. It's what works for me. I'm usually walking down the road with my arms dancing to the music. It's so good for my head.

Hi Klynn - I think you really need to be more patient with yourself. It is so hard to lose weight and maintain an even disposition day after day. No one can be perfect and our moods change so much with every passing moment. Don't dwell on this past week. Just look forward to a better week and keep picking yourself up. It takes a long time - we need to focus on the small victories and small goals that will keep us going!

Do something for yourself this weekend. I understand about the stress, it can move you away from wanting to do anything other than eat. You know what to do, try not to be your own worse critic. You have come so far my friend. You got this!!

Hiya
You’re doing great
I got stuck for a week and, like you , I’m great at criticising myself😊
Keep going and you’ll get the results.. apart from the scales.. think of any Non Scale Victories and write them in your journal so you can look at them on bad days..
For me less joint pain/better mobility/being able to do things I wasn’t able to before are great motivators!
Look for the NSV a.. tomorrow is a new day 🤗🤗

You're doing really well 😁 I got stuck as well but I try to stay positive. I just agree with the others about thinking of your goals and you will achieve it 100%!!! good luck on your journey 🤗

Klynn hang in there honey. ❤ You're making good decisions for yourself. And spending some extra time with your husband is definitely a win! 😊

I’m so sorry klynn! Have you done any measurements? I seem to lose inches when the scale doesn’t move and the scale moves when I’m not losing inches??So weird! I don’t think this weigh in means you did anything wrong—it’s just your body adjusting. You’re probably losing inches and don’t know it yet!
It’s been a weird week for me too... we will persevere and come out on top! I believe in you🙂 you’re amazing in every way.

K, don't let her get to you. You are the strong one. If no one wants to walk with you, buy a really cheap dog leash and collar. Walk with that. Invisible dogs are the greatest....
