Not Enough Time....



Recommended Posts

My job recently started overtime back up. With the Holidays here how could I refuse. So, here I go again with working 6 days a week. Did this over the spring and summer which didn't leave me any "real time" for my exercise routine. Which I believe kind of slowed my loss. I strongly feel that I could've been at goal by now. Had I not worked the OT it would've gave me more time to concentrate on my weight loss. Then again, I took advantage of it. I guess it will be a give and take. I will give (and take) the OT and take what I can for my loss with what time I have to devote to exercise. It is what it is. And I will take it. It will be just a bit longer than I had anticipated to reach my goal. I know it may not seem like a lot left to lose, but I have pushed myself so much and so hard this year just to get where I am. It seems as if there isn't enough time in a day anymore to work everything in. Or I'm just getting older...LOL :)

Wishing everyone a Happy Thanksgiving!!!! :)

Heya Deb :smile1:

Listen, we have to do what we have to do to live our lives. In this economy sometimes that means we have to take on extra shifts to help out our means a little bit more. I think the whole essence of having the sleeve there for us is for times exactly like this. It will keep us stay in line when life's challenges take over. I know in the past when things turned out a bit hectic for me, that would be when I would gain the most weight. Well, thanks to my sleeve that doesn't happen anymore.

Don't worry. Do your overtime and once that is up, you can get back to your program - again, thanks to your little sleevie.

Hugs!! and HAPPY THANKSGIVING to you as well.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
