I probably should have gone right back to bed but I couldn't resist taking a look at email, facebook and the WW online community. I posted my blog post late so only had one response. The woman who responded said that she goes through the same thing with compassion and love for others - it's just not there for herself. She appreciated the blog post. I'm glad that I could strike a chord with people. I'm hoping to get more responses in the morning. I think it's important for all of us to have compassion and self-love. We need to be forgiving too, with ourselves and others. i feel like it's a good place to start.
I'm still excited about showing a .8 weight loss this week. I knew to expect it because I weighed myself at home before going to the meeting. I was thrilled to have a loss after the difficult week that I had. I ate fast food twice, I had soda multiple times and I never did get out and walk. What I did do right this past week was to choice fruit and salad more often, to refrain from drinking soda every night and I tracked everything I ate and drank. I also went to my WW meetings and did my weigh in on Wednesday night. Those are a lot of good things and I need to focus on them. And to lose .8 in addition to all that is cool! I'm psyched too that I'm only .4 away from the 20 lbs lost mark and another 5 lb star. And I'm only 5.4 lbs away from the 25 lbs lost mark. I'll get hardware for that loss (either from the meeting or I'll buy one online on eBay). It's a ring, kind of looks like a washer, that has 25 lbs on it. I want all the hardware I can get. I need the 10% key chain though to put it all on. So the journey continues.
