i need a break...mentally

Jul 04, 2010

I am being way too hard on myself. I'm struggling with weight loss, I'm struggling with being banded.  I'm just mentally exhausted from all of this.  I need a break....a sebatical for a week or 2.  I have got to clear my head before I can do this anymore.

This week I will NOT:
-weigh twice daily, daily, or even this week
-stress over 1-2 lbs
- try to starve myself to get those 1-2 lbs gone
-focus so hard on how far I have left to go
-work myself up into a frenzy about carbs
- stop seeing myself as how big i used to be
- struggle with body image

This week I WILL-
- keep the scales hidden until Friday
- continue to make good food choices
-appreciate how far I've come
-start ENJOYING my new life and love myself
-start seeing myself as a thinner, healthier version of what i used to be
- be happy.

I am going to start right now appreciating how far i've come:
-from my heaviest at 334, to 229
-from a sixe 4x top to a 1x
-from a size 3x scrub top to a large
-from a size 2x scrub bottom to a medium
-from a size 26 pants to a loose 16, snug 14
- from a size 10 shoe to a 9 (yes..my feet shrunk)
-from a size 32 dress to a size 18 dress
-from a bra size 46DDD to a 40DD
-from a 21 inch neck to a 16 inch neck

I have come so far....and change so much for the better. why is it so hard to be happy with that??
I just need a break from everything that has to do with weight loss. I need a break from OH, from the scales.....from it all.
