These are just a few things that are better. The one thing that I think I need to work on the most is my mental attitude about all of this. I can honestly say that the physical part of weight loss is not the hard part...it is the emotional and mental part that is the toughest for me. Always a work in progress.
I agree!! I still struggle, but I had a break through a couple weeks ago where it really hit me on little I was looking at the big picture. It was all about that next pound or that next step. I think looking at the future is important, but it must be a balance.
ReplyDeleteI don't struggle much with my new body since I have been here a lot in the past, but it is starting to really hit that I will smaller "soon". It really scares me at times.
Wow Cee Jay!! 50 lbs is excellent!! I wish I were down 50 lbs! You are doing so great!!
ReplyDeleteI too struggle with the mental issue of it all.
Yes yes yes!! What an excellent inventory! Good for you! :)
ReplyDeleteWow awesome list! So so true about the mental part. You are doing amazing. Love the blog layout too!
ReplyDeleteHooray! Sometimes it all seems so slow... it's good to put your accomplishments in writing so you can SEE what you've really done. And, you do look pretty good in your pic fron the weekend...
ReplyDeleteIf it was all about the physical I don't think ANY of us would have a problem. We are all smart, dedicated women. Its the mental BS that keeps us struggling. I have hope that some of the "old timers" have said that their preocupation with their weight and weight loss and food in general diminishes dramatically the further down the road we get.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comments everyone, so nice to know that I'm normal! :)
