How I'm doing....

I'm still having a tough time getting back to where I was a few weeks ago but I'm getting there. This tragedy really knocked us all for a loop - trying to be kind to myself and allow time to grieve. Vera - I have been dealing with my grief similarly, eating mindlessly. Ugh. I can't figure out where that desire eat mindlessly when I'm feeling down came from...0

Good Morning Sunshine's @ Vera & Cat~
Do NOT beat yourself up, be gentle, kind & loving in every way possible to YOURSELF~especially at a time like now, in which you & your family have recently experienced. Keep reminding yourself how far you have come, and don't put sole emphasis on the weigh in~your here, your closer to achieving your ultimate health & wellness, and most of ALL you are WONDERFUL!

@Cat and Stacey thank you for listening, your words stay with me all day and want to thank you because your words are what get me through these last few tough days. I wish i could reach into the computer and give hugs. Cat please allow yourself all the time you need. . 0

Cat -- I think I missed something...I hope you are ok. I have been through a few devastating times filled with grief, and those times have been difficult weight-wise. Keep checking in here for support, and don't worry about the end of 12 weeks. There is always another 12 to start. Sometimes life affects our ability to meet goals with a deadline, but this is s life-long effort toward better health. Hang in there, Cat and Vera!0

Thank you all for your support! I had an unexpected loss in my family that really threw me for a loop. It's been a tough few weeks. I really appreciate all the kind words. I'm doing ok and really trying to get back on track (and not beat myself up for doing it slowly). That being said, I'm going to really try to rally for the last few weeks of this 12 week block. Thank you all for being such awesome cheerleaders. I hope you are all doing well and I wish you all the best during our home stretch. Hugs and to all! 0

Hi everyone--tomorrow I head out to Caki for 12 days vacation; second trip of the summer before kids buckle down and go back to school. I have pretty much just maintained my weight this summer -- gained on the first trip but have lost it now. Still, I just feel BIG and wanting to lose 10 lbs. I feel like that's a good number for me to shoot for, and then maybe I can do it again. Worried about hotel food options and eating out a lot, but I'll do my best. Even though I exercise the weight is hard to shed!!!!!! Does anyone want to keep going this fall? I do!!! X lbs by Halloween, or Thanksgiving?0

So sorry i have been MIA the last few weeks. Just can't seem to get out of this funk that i am in. I have put back on some weight and i have not been working out. It's been 1 week since i weighed myself. So afraid to get on and see what damage i caused. Just can't seem to pull myself together. I hate that i am using the old excuses like i will start tomorrow or that i need time to reset. They are just pulling me in deeper and i feel like i can't get out of this hole that i dug. I feel like i can't say i will take it day by day but need to say more like hour by hour. So here is to the next hour. I will make the right choices and start strong. Its 10:15am and i will start with a protein shake and some fruit. Thanks for listening.0

Vera -- you can do it! We all have times in life that are curve balls, whether we like it or not. We just can't be perfect all the time! I was close to hitting 50 days in a row of checking in on MFP, and my recent vacation blew it out of the water. I am back to day 1. And I am SURE I also have out on much unwanted weight!!
Let's get back on track together! 0 -

Stefie Your on. Even though i didn't lose my streak i feel like i have started over 2 days down and i kept on track. Here is to day 3. I don't drink or do drugs but i feel like i am a recovering addict. I guess i am addicted to food, LOL. Anytime you need to talk i am here. Just want to thank you again for having my back and giving me your support. I couldn't of had gotten back on track without your support and all of my MFP friends. You guys rock. 0 -
