DISCOURAGED?

Aug 11, 2011

I named this blog post discouraged for those of you that were feeling like I was about an hour ago. I have been feeling like this for the past few days. I had surgery almost 2mos ago and shortyl began to see the difference, big difference. I could feel the difference in my clothing, my body etc. after about 5th week I was also feeling myself become discouraged because it did not seem to becoming off as fast as I thaught it should. Taking advice from my fellow bloggers here I became enemies with my scale (not because of the advice given to me, but because of my obsession to see what did  I lose, what did I lose!! attitude and then my weight stalling). I slowly started to let depression ease in and soon listened to that little voice say well, just try a little (chips or diet soda, cant tolerate sugar at all, yay!) anything that I wasnt suppose to do. I didnt go on a rampage and I didnttry and kill myself or over eat or anything like that. Its just the "trying" this or that that I know I shouldnt that I allowed myself to do.  I began to start to feel my water retention a bit, losing all the weight I could easily feel a little water retention if nothing more than in my engagement ring.

I could go on and on about how I almost gave up after such a short time, but I wrote this to say, DONT GIVE UP DONT GIVE IN.  I wasnt drinking all the protein shake that I was suppose to when I was suppose to. I wasnt excercising like I was suppose to, I seen myself falling off the wagon and it leaving me in the dust!.. I logged in, feeling like crap to see if there was any hope, was it  too late, had I gone too far (not that I gained weight) but just feeling like that, was it too late?? Had anyone else done this? Am I the only one?  At that moment looking at the post, I prayed and asked my savior Jesus Christ to help me. I didnt want to feel sorry for myself. He told me that it is up to me, I had the surgery, what I'd been researching and keeping on the back burner, then finally bringing into reality by Gods good Grace. Here I have had a major surgery to give me a new lease on life and doing nothing but feeling sorry for myself.

I made a plan and in it, made my menu so that i wouldnt make the same stupid mistake again. Drink my protein like Im suppose to etc. Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner menu made and then I got up and did my EXCERCISE!!!  Im so grateful for the chance to have a new lease on life.

For those of you logging in like i did to see if you are the only one that had started eating a few things thatu werent suppose to or started lacking in excercise, drinking or getting in the protein whatever the case...GET UP AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT, USE YOUR TOOL AND DONT WILLINGLY BECOME ONE OF THOSE THAT FAIL AND GIVE IN WITHOUT A FIGHT.  I AM FEELING REAL GOOD RIGHT NOW BECAUSE I KNOW IM BACK ON TRACK AND ITS NEVER TOO LATE. 

 New Pics coming soon!!!



Dont give up, dont give in. I feel wonderful right now, and Im
