Omg! Surgery In 29 Days! And I Gained A Couple Of Pounds!



Recommended Posts

Wow! 29 days and counting!!! But, on another note, I became a little piggie this weekend and ate WAY too much!!!! I'm up 3.5 lbs!!! I am so disgusted with myself!! I'm still below where they want me to be, but, that's besides the point. I was doing so well for over 2 months and then some evil gremlin took over my brain and I didn't even think about what I was eating!!!! Nor did I write it down!!! I got up last night to go to work and had a talk with myself. I said, "self, you need to get your act together and stop this nonsense!!" So I'm back on the straight and narrow from here on out!!! Scared to hear what the dietitian is going to say when I see her here in a couple of hours!!! OK...got that off my chest. Thanks for listening to my whining!! Have a great day everyone and a blessed holiday season!!!

And so begins the process (at least for me it was) of determining why we do the things we do. You know what you are supposed to do. I'm sure you understand the consequences of non-compliance with the instructions, yet that gremlin screams into our ear and we listen and occasionally act on their demands.

Why?

Everybody has their own reasons, and this is but one of the things we get to benefit from on this journey. So, take the time to understand what your triggers are and what you can do to keep them from being started in the first place.

For me, stress is a big contributor. I have since been practicing meditation more and right sizing expectations. Expectations on me and my expectations on others. I have many other things which begin my path to the dark side, but that is just one of mine.

Holidays are awful for me, so many parties and receptions in my circle. Just get back to basics, even try a few days a week with just Protein Shakes to help even it out. December is a baaaaad month for losing weight. Good luck to us all.
