Grrr.
Not even one lousy stick of butter this week.
Then it hit me. So what? Even if I never lost another pound I'm still way better off than I was seven months ago.
I feel better. I look better. My clothes fit better. I have more energy. Food is no longer the enemy! We've made peace.
My weight loss has been slowing down. When I started I was losing around 10 pounds per month. Then it went to 7. Then to 5. Over the last four weeks I've lost 3.
Yes, I wish it was happening faster. But it IS happening. And it will keep happening if I just keep hanging in there and stick with the program. I have so much to be grateful for, and I'm truly enjoying eating healthier and feeling better. It's about SO much more than the numbers!
(But I love the numbers...don't you?)
Hugs.
Hi Cindy,
ReplyDeleteYes, I love the numbers--and nearly as I recall, you are at 189.6 sticks of butter gone! And Woohoo for that! That number just wanted to be celebrated another week.
Joy to you dear sister!
Love,
Your sister
