here I go again


....disappointment
...frustrated
..annoyed

That is how I feel these days .
I worked so hard just a few short years ago to meet my goal,
 I was sooo close....
and I let it go.

I started again last year,
ended up sick
and let it go once more.

So here I sit again
- same situation
- same goal.

Will I be successful
will I follow through
will I continue...
for life

These are all the thoughts that have been going through my head. With my lack of success I often think I am being judged or rejected; because of this I turn on myself and make things worse.  I give up and then beat myself up - repeat, repeat, repeat.

But Monday I made the decision.
NO MORE!

Head high,
I am getting help.
I called on friends and they are by my side
encouraging
motivating
talking about it out loud.

Thank you friends!
thank you for sharing your successes and defeats
thank you for telling me I deserve this and will succeed
thank you for telling me you will walk this path WITH me
thanks for being friends!

I WILL LOSE THIS BAGGAGE I HAVE AND MEET MY GOAL.

Three days under my belt, and I am down .8.
Not huge but for 3 days...I'm content.

Vacation...you will not get in my way.
I will continue on and record a loss even when you are tugging at me to cave...to give in...
telling me it's a vacation and this is all part of it will not work.

I will be successful
I will follow through
I will continue...
for life

Watch out healthy, here I come!

...to be continued

You can do it! I have faith in you. I feel exactly as you do. Frustrated and disappointed in myself. I've decided that my attitude is my biggest enemy. I've resolved that I am going to, like you, keep my head high no matter what. The weight loss will be slow but I will lose it. I signed back up with my PT person and I am going to "get my healthy" on. We will do it together.
