I suck. :o( I'm doing horribly, and I just can't seem to get my act together. I don't even know what to do about it all. I can't seem to stay on track for more than a couple of days at a time. All I want to do is eat--and what I want to eat is carbs and sugar.
I heard that Jack Lalanne died (today? I heard it today). That's sad. But 96...wow.

Have you considered trying to do a low carb diet? Its rough for the first several days but once you push through the withdrawals your cravings for carbs/sugar/starches are literally gone. Just a thought!
ReplyDeleteI love LoCarb and even less carb!
ReplyDeleteThe first few days suck.
But after that - it's all down hill!
I have done Atkins before. I lasted only 9 days, ate too many sugar free chocolates without realizing what they do to your digestive system, and after I stopped, I gained 20 lbs almost immediately.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to ask my doctor next time I see him if I can be tested for insulin resistance. I have ALL the symptoms.
Are you kidding me! How can you say you suck! You have lost almost 50 pounds! You are doing great! Remember , it is a mental thing. You can do this! YOU inspire ME! Do something ... anything tonight that makes you feel pretty. Paint your nails, take a bubble bath, give yourself a facial. Anything! And tomorrow wake up ,and do it again! Keep going! Think how far you have come! Just keep doing what you have been doing... eat less. move more. Take care of yourself. You deserve it.
ReplyDeleteHave a pretty day!

Hi Kristin, thanks for the pep talk. :o) One li'l thing...I had lost about 50 lbs...I've gained some back. Not all of it, thank goodness, but enough that I'm too embarrassed to post my current weight. :o( I keep the lowest weight on the ticker so that I don't forget it, and I also hoped it would motivate me.
ReplyDeleteCurrently I just have no motivation. I don't know what my problem is (well, this week I'm pretty sure that the cramps, headache, and sleepiness mean TOM). I need to figure out a way out of this rut.
I think it's something about the time of year. My motivation took off for somewhere sunny and I haven't seen it since.
ReplyDeleteHmmm, interesting theory, The Merry. I think mine and your motivation have maybe run off together for Bora Bora? I've been kind of obsessed with Bora Bora lately...maybe that's why. :p
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to pop in to say hi Lainey. I'm sorry you're having a rough time. I'm doing a bit of struggling myself.
ReplyDeleteYou've done so well! Give yourself more credit!
Let's keep doing this... together, okay?
Thanks for your comment, whoever you are. :p
ReplyDeleteI'm not quite there yet...but I'm working on getting myself back to a place where I can keep doing this.
