I am not going to see the 300's any more. Last year I finally got under 300 pounds and said I would never go back. Then life happened. I continued to work out, but I just did not wrap my head around food. I actually started making WORSE choices instead of better. The direct result of that was me gaining about 20 pounds.
As you all know, I recently started addressing my relationship with food at a much deeper level; and the scale is moving in the right way. Last week I was kind of mad because I didn't lose any weight, but at the same time I knew I did everything in my power to lose weight. I am eating right and continue to exercise. This week I didn't change anything, but the scale went down. Even with the scale going down I still found myself frustrated. Thankfully, I got my wits about me and did some reflecting. I have been attempting to lose weight for over two years now... and although I have, it has been mainly because I changed my activity level. For the last year though, I really have not lost much weight. I have lost and gained the same 10 pounds over and over. So losing 2 pounds a week is honestly the best thing ever.
I am happy. That is an amazing feeling. Food still runs my life, but at least I am dealing with it head on and in a healthy way. Knowing now that I am in fact giving it my all is a great feeling.
