preop weight loss started
Jun 09, 2009
In 2005, I used the 'glycemic index diet' to lose 30 lbs. it was a healthy way to eat but i started adding fast food and that was a slippery slope of calories and fat. It is super easy and now i am ready to use it as a tool to lose my weight. so last week my and my support person started taking in less calories. the good news is i started to lose weight. I was worried that this was an impossible task. i haven't really lost weight in a year and i am 17 lbs heavier than last time I started a weight loss program.so when i got on the scale Monday morning...5 days later i have lost 4.5 lbs. It is so great to be able to lose some weight and not feel like this is a waste of time. I am believing i can continue to my goal of losing 98lbs. i have never done it before but i am hopeful and willing to work with my new tool - lap band!
OK, i got on scale today and i was up 3 lbs! WHAT no way what do i do. I have a digital scale and it is accurate. I was having a meltdown. It is a good thing i am working on my mental processes and sorting though the issues of my life. I was sad to say the least. I took my shower and toweled off. I decided to get back on the scale and stand carefully in the center. It was a miracle of science! the digital scale was now back on track and my weight was the same as Monday. Thank goodness.
i know it seems trivial but i am shocked at how i am effected by my new weight loss issues that occur in my mind moment to moment. It is the war in the mind that gets me down. I have many choices. These choices come one at a time and i can chose well. I am trusting myself. I have value just as I am. The improvement to my body will enable me to do more physically and i will continue to improve my journey of self in relationship to God who loves me.
