I'm in a funk

Hugs! I just want to say our hormones can be crazy and mood swings are normal. I have a pretty great life too. No complaints but man, some days I can be depressed. For me... It's more of a "don't give a ****" mood that follows me. You are on track today! Focus on that, let go of yesterday. You can't change it. So try to move passed it! Hugs!

Yes!  That's how it starts for me, then I plunge into what is going on today which is guilt and shame and exhaustion.  Thank you.  I'm really going to focus on today and making a plan for the rest of the week.

At one point around a year out I also sabotaged my weight loss when I got so close. I hit a goal but not my cushion point. Gurl don't do what I did, keep plugging away; you won't be sorry. It does get harder out so I know we get frustrated but we can do this girl. You got this!! xo

Thank you :)  I will keep plugging away.  I've tried my damnedest to maximize my weight loss in the early period, and I have to do the best I can to get to goal.  I never did get to my wedding goal weight.  I just kind of gave up for a bunch of reasons, and I don't want to do that now.  I don't want to continue to sell myself short.  I'm NOT where I want to be, but I know I can get there with determination and commitment.  We all can :)

You know that "feeling" you get just before your pregnancy is about at an end and the baby is ready to come out in a day or two? That unsettled, anxious, what's about to happen to me and my life as I've known it? Well, I think That's what we begin to feel when we get close to our goals. Life is going to change, and we don't know if we're up to it. Will we be successful-will it be all we imagined? Open the door, girl, and go through. You have what it takes, and the experience you are about to have is a new life full of possibilities, challenges, successes (and some failures, but that's alright). What you do know is that you don 't want to go back to the old life. Been there- done that - no fun. As Buzz Lightyear said, "to infinity and beyond!" The past is dead and gone. Life is in the now and future. Engage with hope and confidence. You can do this. Hugs and smiles your way.

Yes, I know that feeling well and I was totally unprepared for HOW much life would change and then for how easy it was when I finally just let go and let it happen.  What a wonderful analogy.  I can't express to you how eye opening that is for me.  I am changing, I have been changing, and I'm working hard to do it.  That doesn't mean I'm not going to do stupid things, fall down, whatever, but it also doesn't mean I haven't changed.  Thank you thank you thank you.
