MOUGHI's CalorieKing blog

Friday, Jun 27 2008 - really feeling down

View MOUGHI's food & exercise for this day

I know I have been very positive about my weight loss up to now. I have kept on my diet for over a month now diligently. Still, I stay at the same weight as I have over a month ago. I have read others blogs and know of the agony of plateaus and the defeated feelings of my friends. Well, now I know first hand how it feels because today I'm feeling the blues BIG time over this turn in my weight loss journey. I have read many opinions of what to do at this point. Frankly, I don't know what I am going to do. It's only been a month and the thought of waiting out another few months terrifies me. I thought about going to a nutritionist if this goes on for over three months. Today, I started to cut my calories, then my emotions got the better of me and I just decided to eat a regular day until I decide what to do. I'm just too upset today to eat at 1200 cals today. I also didn't make it into the gym today. I did decide to give up coffee once my sock is all gone. That will take a month. Don't want to waste my gourmet decaf coffee.:( I'll give it up and see how I feel. I am cutting my use of Slpenda down until I can wean myself off of that too. Gee, I am trying. Don't know if these things will make any difference anyway.
Today, thanks to Catwalker, I think I figured out Photo Bucket. So here is a picture of Rex or Rexina the alligator who lives near me. She is one of Sienna Plantations' resident gators. Several of the subdivisions have gators because we back up to the Brazos River down here. Gator education is important and is done in the schools and at the homeowners Ass. when people move in. I lived in Dallas and so I guess these creatures are amazing to me that they live right among us. There are rules as to when they get out of their habitats and what the game wardens will do them if they do wander off, but it is mainly up to us to avoid them since they usually stay away from us.
Have a nice Friday.

What? You're human too! :wink3: Seriously, cut yourself some slack. You have lost 85 pounds and yet you're sweatin the small stuff. You have defeated the odds and come out better than you have ever been before. What terrifies you so if it takes 3-4 months? You look great right now, but even better you are an awesome person inside and that shows clear to the outside. Sometimes you just have to let go of what you can't control and hand the rest over to a higher authority. Hang in there. This too shall pass. :kiss:
