    I was going to quit but I may as well see this through and see if I can make some sort of come back. Man...my emotional eating has killed me with all the stress I've been under. I gotta do something or I'm going to have a stroke. Stress isn't a laughing matter...and I'm too stressed for my own good. So....here is to a bunch of walks through Tiger Town (my local park) and major meditation. God is good...I really need to hand my stress over to him. Thanks Amy for your encouragement during this time. :flowerforyou:

    As well as bumping the post I figured I may as well let everyone know how the doctors went after my last post.
    I was diagnosed with 'mild depression' on Monday. I guess I'm not too surprised and it's a relief to know I'm not asthmatic (had some crazy breathing issues). I'm having Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (definitely didn't want the AD's after hearing the side effects). I've finally absorbed/accepted it and it explains my odd behaviour the last few months which was the reason me and the bf broke up. As strong as my feelings are for him my POA is to concentrate on me then maybe see if we can be friends and perhaps I will explain it all to him, I guess if we're meant to be it will happen.
    I started volunteer work this week so I am definitely grateful to the distraction it provides and hopefully it will help boost my CV so that some crazy person will give me a job!
    Loving this weeks challenges so now comes the time to pick someone to send a supportive message!
    Hope y'all have a good weekend, I'm definitely looking forward to the bank holidays Monday and Tuesday (to all you people from the US we have the Queens 60th Jubilee!!)

    So sorry I have been MIA the last couple of weeks. I have been out of town the past 2 Mondays. I weighed in but forgot to post (even after reminding myself to not forget)!:mad: Well I will still keep track of the goals that I set for myself and keep an eye out for the next go round. Good luck everyone on attacking your goals!!:drinker:

    You're still on the chart so you are still in! If it's easier to weigh in over the weekend, that's perfectly fine too. I usually do mine on Sunday so I don't forget. :drinker:

    Roni, thank you for filling in for Kristen....you are doing a great job.

    I have been struggling for months to start losing weight again. I've been on a very long plateau. I spent most of my training time talking with my trainer about my eating and nutrition. No big surprise that I was NOT eating enough for the extreme amount of exercising that I have been doing.....I have changed my fat to muscle and I obviously have not been fueling my body......The surprising thing was that I cried at the prospect of having to eat more.I It is very scary to have to increase my food intake!!...I have been working so hard to eat less and exercise more, that the prospect of having to up my calories by a significant amount was daunting to me.....

    I have significantly increased my protein in the last 2 days, but have not gotten the calories to where they need to be yet....I'm feeling like I have to eat all the time. I have my yearly physical on Monday, so I will make more changes after that. I may not show great changes in weight for a few weeks until I get this figured out, but I will eventually get it. I thank you all for your continued support!!

    I hope everyone has had a great week! Have a wonderful weekend:-)

I feel completely AMAZING and I'm even more motivated to keep on just losing to be a winner. :)

    So I realized I actually copied the wrong old chart into this week's report (as it was missing the numbers for 5/28 which were the same as 5/21) so this is the actual report that I have fixed in this copy of the chart. I apparently just noticed it too late to be able to edit the post.

    So once again, my weigh in for the week of 6/4 is 251.2!

    Thank you, Roni_M. I was so freaking happy to finally hit that first 50 pounds. Now I just have 2 more sets of 50 to go with a couple of extra pounds thrown in on the side to lose and I'm set. :)

    I didn't quite make mini-goal, but I am still happy dancin' to get a 2.8 loss this week!! It makes me glad I owned up to the gain last week.

    Kristen - I think the Olivia Method is helping me plan my day better and stay within my goals along with pushing me to exercise. Thanks for sharing!

    Shadowkitty - 50 pounds down is AHmazinging!!! And definitely something to celebrate!!!

    Although I only lost 1lb this week, I'm very happy with that since TOM is visiting and my knee is swollen so I didn't get any exercise done this week. I've got to be retaining some water so I'm still feeling like I'm past the "stall" and am hoping for a better loss next week.

    Good luck with the scales!! :drinker:

    Considering I was at a 4.4 lb gain earlier this week I will take it. Not happy about it, but with everything I have been going through I'm pretty sure it was stress that helped me pack these pounds on. I started my menstrual cycle Saturday, so I feel pretty bloated/irritable/whiny/depressed.....so I know I won't reach my goal weight....but now I'm just trying to salvage what is left of my pride and at least be down to 225 by the end of this challenge. Hoping another and new challenge awaits so I can keep going.
