After last night's weigh-in I am starting this morning with, yet again, a new force. I didn't stay as vigilant as needed this week resulting in a small gain of .4lb. Now really? .4 is ridiculous! I wish that our Tops scale either said a half pound or a whole! I am so aware of all the things that I did wrong and know what to do this week to see a loss. Isn't it funny how we sabotage ourselves when the going gets good? Asking myself why I did just doesn't seem to satisfy me. I had a nurse ask me, recently, why I don't just have WLS..I feel that, for me, surgery might create a big loss but would not take care of the emotional eating, twisted self talk or even the will to just be thinner or healthier. I think that if I were to go thru with surgery I would not be successful, so here I am:a Spark member, a 38yo woman who is capable, willing and able to lose my extra weight by my own and more appropriately God's own power. To do that, I need goals. Yesterday's goals were not all successful, so today they must be!
