Life is so Challenging....

Jan 15, 2011

Well, what can I say???  I've been very bad for the last year and have gained 21 lbs back from my lowest weight.  I am so frustrated with myself.  I am an emotional eater and have had alot of stressors in my life recently.  We have been raising my 2 year old granddaughter since birth.  My husband lost his job after 28 years with the State of MI and we had to leave our home and move to Kalamazoo.  My 15 year old son has been having a very difficult time with this move and I'm feeling his pain.  When things get tough....I EAT!!!   I was overdue for my 3 year post op appt.  Should have been in October.  Found a nice Doctor here in Kalamazoo named Dr. Verseman.  Went to see him yesterday and told him how bad I have been.  I went back to drinking my Diet Coke and eating junk food as a "comfort" tactic.  Did not work for me cause now I'm very unhappy with this weight gain and really need to get back on track.  So I am dumping the diet pop, chips, popcorn, and the high carb foods.  Gonna eat more protein, yogurt, cottage cheese, fruits and vegetables..........stay tuned!  I could really use the support of my OH friends.  I'm sorry I haven't been on here for so long and maybe that's why I have failed.  I am on facebook also but there's nothing better than the support of people who have been through the same thing as you.  I'm not going to call this dieting but changing my lifestyle to healthier eating forever!  Good to be back........missed you guys!
