    Good news here - you must not be diabetic!

    What was responsible - a single diabolical food, a protracted spell of sugar cravings, hypnosis.... ?

    Where shall I begin.....

    1. Lack of electrolyte regime
    2. Lack of companion supplements
    3. Eating disorder
    4. Sugar addiction
    5. Scale weight obsession
    6. Lack of self control
    7. No immediate support
    8. Continued persuasion from The Other to just 'be normal and exercise more'

    I based my whole experience on just wanting to look hot. To be skinny.
    I totally allowed what the scale said to regulate my mood.
    I didn't accept or love myself the way I do now.
    I absolutely didn't know my worth. As a fat person, as a skinny person, with a Mohawk, with a ponytail.

    Now I'll be happy being able to jump around, not grunting while tying my shoes, feeling that awesome feeling of body awareness again...like I'm a powerhouse and watch me climb this tree.

    I'm gonna fully get it, and I'm getting it more everyday. This is about not getting Alzheimer's, and about being the best Super Lori I can be.

    Thank you caring enough to ask.
    I hope someone can take something meaningful from this.

    Wow! That's a lot to digest.

    Each of those factors is a focus area unto itself - add them together, and it's easy to see how even well-planned efforts can get derailed!

    Maybe attitude and mindset are the most important of all, eh? They can bring the energy and patience that open our minds...

    Sounds like you're in a good place now - whatever you did, bravo!

    Thank you! Anytime. I wear my heart on my sleeve, and I'm an open book. And I never want that to change.

    I think it's amazing that you are self aware enough to realize what mistakes you've made in the past that have derailed you and made/continue to make changes to prevent it again. I love the honesty!

    We share the same story Lori! From #3-8, AND the 20 pound re-gain after falling off the wagon. :( But we're back! Go us!
    I'm going to add you!
