MESSED UP
| Sun, 12-17-2006 - 8:52pm |
Well I have to confess that I messed up on Phase I. I had such a stressful week. My 12 year old son was missing for 3 days and that just threw me off my routine. I didnt eat at all while he was gone and then when I finally did eat it was all non South Beach friendly. I want to start over tomorrow. I need to get back on track. I do enjoy this way of eating but I have to prepare myself. I lost a total of 6lbs. I want to lose 14 more. Hopefully It will happen before summer.

Oh Stephanie, I'm so sorry to hear about your son. I hope that he is safe and sound and that the things surrounding his disappearance have been addressed. I can completely understand eating under that kind of stress, there's a reason food is called "comfort". But get right back on the beach on the same day of Phase 1 where you were and you'll be fine. No need to start again at the beginning -- my gosh, you've been tortured enough. ;-) Phase 1 is just the detox stage, the real long-term and long-lasting weight loss is on Phase 2. You'll get there!
Good Luck!
Stephanie,
Mags is right.
Stephanie,
I am so sorry about your son and hope he is well.
Just do the best you can. I'll be thinking of you.
Good luck!
Thanks for the support. My son is OK we are still trying to resolve all the matters at hand but I am so grateful to GOD that he is ok.
I started back on Phase I as of yesterday. So far so good. I think I will take your advice here and just finish up phase I and jump right into phase 2. It's weird sometimes i am pleased with how I look and sometimes Im not. Like today I had on a pair of size 8 jeans and they were so droopy. It kind of annoyed me that now I have to buy a smaller pair of jeans LOL.. but at the same time I want the number on the scale to go down. my measurments right now is a 27 1/2 inch waist, 38 inch hips and thighs about 24-23 1/2 inch. I currently weigh 175 lbs
I just hate the number on the scale it really urks me. Its hard for some reason to look at all of my accomplishments and be grateful I am still striving for more and I have a feeling that when and If I get to my "goal weight" I am going to strive for more pounds off. I think something is mentally wrong with me. I wonder if there is a name for this. Is it a disorder. I love excercising and don't think I will ever stop but at the same time I am tired of fighting with the scale. This is really killing my spirit. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
