    I confess I've never tried poutine... mostly because I generally don't like gravy.

    I confess that I can't seem to shake this "I've lost 70 pounds but I'm still fat, so why bother?" feeling. I really hate this endless middle part of a long term weight loss effort. I do look at pics from before and see that I'm a lot less fat than I was, and that helps sometimes... But ugh. I can't help but feeling like I'm doing all this work and standing in place. 90 pounds to go is significantly better than 160, but there is no end in sight and I feel stuck. And a little burnt out.

    I confess that I have been trying to cope with anxiety that has been severe lately. Breathing exercises, camomile tea, and intermittent fasting has relieved me tremendously!

    After brushing the teeth of course, you must have fresh breath!

    I love being woken up in the middle of the night, so frisky ! :blush:

    I confess I love this too ;)

    Ditto!

    I feel the EXACT same (although nowhere near as much of a loss as you). I think it's because I yoyo dieted and lost and put on, lost and put on, I feel like it's not real and I'll be my starting weight again tomorrow:-(
    You're doing an amazing job! 70 pounds is a loss to be super proud of. You're little one would be so proud of you, so much more energy in the long run to play and keep up with him. people like you, with yr amazing losses, inspire me to to keep going x

    lose 10 pounds


    .... and then do it eight more times.

    it's a process, not an event and nobody is looking at a calendar.

    Please don't discount or negate your achievement; it's remarkable.

    Thing is, everybody stumbles along the way and it's not if you stumble, it's how you respond that counts.

    You're doing great.

    I'm that way, too, about the starting weight. I'm still 15-20 pounds above my lowest weight as an adult. It makes me feel like a huge failure that between lots of moving, depression, and pregnancy I managed to gain 100 pounds after working so hard to get to that place. I'd be at goal now if I hadn't done so much yo-yoing.

    regret is focusing on the past and anxiety is focusing on the future

    the trick is to reel it in and concentrate on the now

    Absolutely no failing in your effort. You'll get there. Depression is all consuming, physically as well as mentally. I hope you're in a better place than you were. And hindsight is the worst! I'd too be at my goal if I didn't yoyo but look at us now! We are doing it! And this time next year we'll be looking back so proud of ourselves:-)

    Focusing on the next 5 or 10 pounds was so easy in the beginning. Focusing on it now, with 10 pounds at a time is like "I've already done this 7 times!" I even give myself little rewards along the way (usually hair color or a new book) to try to keep myself motivated... It's just not working like it used to for the last couple months.

    And thank you so much for your kind words, they mean a lot.

    I am off medication now, and the good days significantly outnumber the bad days for sure.

    This time next year my husband and I are hoping for baby #2 to be on the way.

    Yes, so much this!

    You are doing awesome! 70 lbs is an incredible amount of weight to lose. There is an end in sight and you will get there. Just don't give up. We are all here cheering you on.

    Ugh. You guys are making me cry. Thank you.
