I'm on WW right now and I know how "not easy" that was. Pat yourself on the back and just keep on keeping on. Just remember the distance you have to go isn't as far as the distance you've already come. YOU deserve it! I'm pulling for you and I don't know you, but I'm darn proud of you!Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13142165989773432032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19060161.post-60542321690313860152008-10-05T02:10:00.000-05:002008-10-05T02:10:00.000-05:00Have no doubt that the fact that you haven't gaine...Have no doubt that the fact that you haven't gained back a substantial amount of the weight you lost after this absolutely rotten year you've had is a HUGE accomplishment. <B>H-U-G-E!</B><BR/><BR/>I've done the WW thing, so I know. And I also have gained back almost all the weight I lost on WW, just because I have taken on the stress of owning my own business. <BR/><BR/>I am SO proud of you!<BR/><BR/>And I'm happy that you are taking steps that will keep you here with us, instead of giving into that "dying young" thing...<BR/><BR/>Love you.... :-]Lisa :-]https://www.blogger.com/profile/02237889098638895390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19060161.post-18579827756976506152008-10-02T20:49:00.000-05:002008-10-02T20:49:00.000-05:00So glad to see you are back online..I kept checkin...So glad to see you are back online..I kept checking in and was concerned. That is a HUGE weight loss. I need to lose some weight too and I know how difficult it is. Please make sure before you do anything aerobic a doctor clears you. I ended up tearing things because I was so out of shape. Now I walk when able.Nellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06927983874624510031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19060161.post-9985228561868168682008-10-02T09:41:00.000-05:002008-10-02T09:41:00.000-05:00First, congratulations. I know this has to have b...First, congratulations. I know this has to have been hard, but when you read the statistics on re-gaining weight, the plateau is surely much healthier--and encouraging. You didn't have a net loss since January--but you didn't re-gain. And that alone is really worth patting yourself on the back.<BR/>Second, and I know this is an off the wall suggestion, but would it encourage you if you told yourself every day how much money you saved that day by not eating Food X, Y, and Z, and putting that money in a special savings/IRA Fund/favorite charity/special gift for somebody piggy bank?<BR/>Third-maybe using a pedometer would encourage you?<BR/>Finally, a good thing about a plateau is that if your body is relatively happy here, that may be good evidence that it will be comfortable at a lower plateau also.<BR/>Best wishes.<BR/>PatAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19060161.post-77317007725236719262008-10-02T08:50:00.000-05:002008-10-02T08:50:00.000-05:00You've accomplished an amazing thing, Cynthia. To...You've accomplished an amazing thing, Cynthia. To drop that much, to become so much healthier...is something to be *proud* of. I hate exercise as well and have found that having different dvds of "fun" programs (I've got belly dancing, pilates, and a dance program) helps when I actually feel motivated to do something. Granted, it's not often, but it can help. You're beautiful, try to enjoy it!Brandihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06042257367540000722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19060161.post-39645285053673783942008-10-02T07:26:00.000-05:002008-10-02T07:26:00.000-05:00I'm so proud of you.
