3 day streak right here!!! WooHoo!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Might not be much, but it’s a choice that makes me feel great about myself. 😎 Especially in the midst of struggling with congenital health issues PLUS chronic pain associated with a spine injury that causes me to have extremely limited mobility. All that to the side , I know it’s possible for me to keep pushing as long as I have my mind set on loving myself. Which is something I sorta lost track of while raising 5 kids. Now that they’re all grown up, it’s TIME to POUR LOVE INTO ME. I’m a private duty nurse & have spent my whole life using my gift of caring for others. However, at 48 yrs young, I realize that I have neglected myself terribly & there’s very little left to give. So , here I am … almost a week into the transitioning phase. I’ve managed to meet the calorie goal, but having trouble letting go of sugar. I know it’s a process … but I get so easily aggravated with myself for petty things like drinking 8oz of cran grape juice & then since I messed up , I’m ready to smash a half gallon of rocky road ice cream. 😵 Not gonna do it, bc I’m on here instead of allowing myself to digress. Looking for friends who can relate to and/or are empathetic to being 100+ pounds overweight. Let’s share some of our favorite affirmations. All races / religions & sexual orientations welcome to join in. 💜

Letting go of sugar feels like *kitten* (I'm on it!), so do it gradually because otherwise you will bounce. This week you buy 5 cran grape juices, the next week 4 and so on. Replace with walnuts or diet juices.
The key is consistency so keep it up!
