Weighed this morning instead of tomorrow because I am going out of town and won't be at home to weigh. Scale says.. 205! Sub 200 is coming closer into view before the holidays like I had hoped. My appetite is still gone and I am still struggling with the breakup between Mark and I. But this is a nice side effect of it.

See, something positive came of something not positive.... You should have no problem reaching 200 by next month. Are you still drinking alot of water, even though you have no appetite? -- Email me at: perpleglow(AT)comcast.net > Weighed this morning instead of tomorrow because I am going out of town > and won't be at home to weigh.

My water intake on any given day is 5-6 liters before dark. Thanks for the support.

It is much worse to be an emotional eater as far as your diet prognoss goes. Congrats on losing 5 lbs. You are done with 55% of your planned loss. i > Weighed this morning instead of tomorrow because I am going out of town > and won't be at home to weigh.

I am heartsick. It sucks and I know I will eventually be ok, but still, getting there is one of the hardest things I am faced with right now. I never was an emotional eater, just an eater hehe.

But this is a nice side effect of it. I'm sorry for your heartache. Try to look at the big picture. (I love listening to Dr. Joy Brown make tidy work of people's problems when I need cheering up. She takes 20 years of grudges and disposes of them in three minutes.) Congratulations on the whoosh fairy. It's great being under 200 pounds. Can you cross your legs yet comfortably? I really like that one, it gives me more social grace. (No whoosh fairy in sight for me - I think I'm rubbing up against Det too much.) Wendy 244/191/174 Yes! I can cross my legs beautifully lol. Quit rubbing up against det!

I was so overwhelmed I sat down and cried because I'd never been under 200 pounds in my entire adult life. Hope you're beginning to feel better about the breakup. That 5 pounds will go in no time. Jenn 200 is going to be emotional, I can tell that already. As far as the breakup, I'll live. I am just pissed now. Mostly at myself. So many things could have been handled differently on his part and.. admittedly, on mine. I just have to stay focused now on my health, my kids, my work etc and stay busy. I am actually pretty pleased with myself that I haven't just said f*ck it and had a big fat greasy cheeseburger or something equally as nasty/bad for me. I know one thing.. I am learning a TON about myself because of all this. I am learning I am far more determined, driven, reasonable and strong than I ever gave myself credit for. Hard way to learn.. but at least I am using even the sh*tty lessons that life hands us to my advantage. And as a side note and this may sound really shallow, vindictive yadda yadda, whatever it's called. But I am really looking forward to being thinner and healthier than I am now so that when Mark does see me (at some later date) he will see what he is missing. He wasn't the most supportive guy in the world about my WOE/WOL. So a.) I gain my health. b.) He eats his heart out. Works for me! I'm not a real spiritual/religious person.. but I do believe that God doesn't give us anything we can't handle and He does everything for a reason. Figuring out the reason though.. that's the tough part.

[quoted text clipped - 19 lines] > > Jenn Hey Susan, I know where you are coming from. When I divorced my 1st husband about 5 years ago, I weighed 324. After a year, I got to the weight I am at now.... only w/out exercise. Anyway, every time he saw me, he would tell me how good I looked. He is the one that emotionally abused me about my weight, therefore causing me to gain more and more until I was that obese. Of course, I gained alot of it back up to 284 over the past 3 years. It is a good thing for me that he hasn't seen me in a while! 284/226/199/175 -- Email me at: perpleglow(AT)comcast.net > 200 is going to be emotional, I can tell that already. > [quoted text clipped - 55 lines] > > > > Jenn > 200 is going to be emotional, I can tell that already. > [quoted text clipped - 26 lines] > 2month 5days 17:41hours of being smoke-free, 2,678 cigs not smoked, > $495.43 saved, 1wweek 2day 7:10hours of my life saved I really feel for you, Susan. DH and I had a "crisis" a year ago--the result of which was a new dedication to ME. I went through the "can't eat" stage for a couple of weeks, spent more time and expended more energy at the gym to vent my frustration and anger and climb out of my depression, and dropped a lot of weight very quickly. One thing that helped me a lot, besides the exercise, was journaling all of my feelings, frustrations, sadness, and hurts. It really helped to pour my heart out on paper (to be burned at a later date). Hang in there. You'll get through it, be a stronger person, and will look and feel fantastic. Hugs.

I lost a fair amount of weight when my ex-boyfriend and I broke up a year or so ago. For the same reasons as you - when I get emotionally hurt that badly... my appetite disappears. It was, oh, about a month before it really came back. I lost 15 pounds, which on my frame, makes for a big visual difference. And sure enough, Mr.I'm.Just.Not.Attracted.To.You came running back. Ha. Have to admit I enjoyed laughing in his face. And, even better... somehow those 15 pounds became connected in my head to him, so that's been extra-motivation to keep that weight off... that BigJerkWeight is gone for good! :) ...megan 194/138/125 > Hee... isn't that the best revenge?

I can't believe men sometimes. I work in the financial services field where the majority of our customers are men. I've been given numbers by a few different guys and guess what...they're all married! What a**holes! Don't they know if they have accounts with us, I can tell their marriage status??? What is up with that? Martha Susan, GOOD FOR YOU!!! GOOD JOB! glo |
