Starting over, feeling sad

Friday, June 22, 2012

I am new to blogging, but, here it goes. Today is day one, again. I am so tired of gaining weight and then losing a little, gaining more. I wanted to be very positive this morning, but feel like crying. I walked, had a good breakfast, but feel like there is just too much going on in my life. I saw pics of my vacation, and really saw how big I look. I didn't feel I looked like that, but I do. I know it's all because I eat to comfort myself. Maybe the day will be better.

    Gosh I know how you feel , but we're all here , for, and with you.! Take it one day at a time. Do one good day and then another, and soon it'll become a way of life. Try not to take on more than today .... I just focussed on one good day, and then I had a good week yea! And then the first month was done, and that's where the "power" kicked in ! emoticon And cheers to you for getting back on the wagon! You can do it!
Keep us posted xxx Natalie emoticon

    Yes, there are days like this and cry if you want to in order to relieve some of the stress. But then, make a plan that has daily baby steps that will push you into a positive direction. You can do it.

    It takes time and my best advice I'd to make little changes that you can live with. Don't try to hurry the process. We would all like for the weight to just melt away but we have to fit this new way into our lives. Things do happen and it can be frustrating. I had lost a lot of weight and then had foot problems thatnled to surgery in January and now I'm having back surgery in July. Needless to say my exercise routine has gone down the crapper and I've gained my weight back. I am going to make positive progress but it will be slow going. Come along - every positive step is one step closer. Keep in mind it isn't about being perfect, just better most of the time.

    My body is fat, but I am not fat. I am.... inquisitive. I can try new things. I am creative. I am terrible at telling jokes, but I enjoy the humour in life. I can do one thing today to go towards my goal towards being healthy. The scale is a tool and not a very good one for me some days. However the mileage tracker IS A GREAT TOOL for me. I can walk out my door and see how far I go every day. I can set a minum distance and other days I can give myself a big pat on the back for going a little bit further. I can set a goal to walk 5 miles. I don't have to set a time limit. I can record those miles on a map or give myself a star on the calendar when I do it. I can tell myself all the reasons why walking is good for me every time I put my running shoes on. I can change my body, one step at a time! emoticon

    Blog away....this is a safe place to share your feelings.
Try not to focus on how you look. Focus on how wonderful you will feel as you fuel your body with good nutrious foods. It takes a while to get the junk food out of your system but once you do you will begin to crave good foods. Get rid of all those awful junk carbs and processed foods....ask yourself the question "is this food good for fueling my body" and only put good food in your body. before you know it you will be feeling better....especially your thoughts. Remember that your body will never feel full until you give it vitamins and nutrients that it so desperately needs.
you can do this.
Best of everything to you.
Sallie
