Not an actual weigh in but I know my body and it's 193 - 195 pounds AGAIN. I have not been following the program since my husband died in December. Stress, Stress, Stress = Comfort foods, snacks, cupcakes, cakes, carbs, carbs, carbs, junk, junk, junk. Not excercising, not sleeping, not much water either! Uggghhhhhhhhhh! Nothing fits, I feel fat and ugly.
Got scared last week when I noticed I could not go up the stairs without being completely winded. It was horrible! I'm only 58 and I swear I felt 88. I prayed to God for the strength to focus on my health because I want to be here for my kids and grandkids.
I took my first easy step that night and went to bed 1 hour earlier and prayed again to somehow find the strength to get myself healthy! MY LIFE DEPENDS ON IT.
Over the weekend I incorporate drinking a LOT more water again. It's a pain but I know it helps flush my system out.
Today, I took the most important step and logged onto this site and will begin to monitor every single thing I eat. I know it will be difficult and I know for me anyway, IF I give myself only 1 cheat day I'll be able to lose the weight at a slow healthy pace. Wish me luck!
