Death of a Village

Not my best day. 😞 My husband & I are on a doctor-supervised weight-loss program; he‘s lost more than 100 lbs and I‘ve lost around 70. At today‘s visit though, we‘d both gained weight. So we kind of wallowed. Ate junk and did nothing fitness-related at all. Tomorrow will be better. I feel like Sam looks. Fixing to read a bit. #bookfitnesschallenge #bfcr2 @wanderinglynn @Emilymdxn @cobwebmoth @Megabooks @RachelO @Trashcanman @TheEllieMo @cewilf

wanderinglynn A 70pd weight loss is amazing! You should be proud. Tomorrow is a new day. One day at a time. You got this. 🙌🏻 5y

cewilf I‘m sorry you had some disappointing news :( But tomorrow is a new day and a new opportunity! You can power through and keep going 💪 5y

Trashcanman That's a heck of an accomplishment, I wish you the best. You can do it. 😊 5y

FlowerFairy You‘re doing great! 70lbs is wonderful!!! You‘ve got this!!! 💜 5y

KathyWheeler @wanderinglynn We love our doctor and her nutritionist and exercise therapist because that‘s their attitude; it‘s one day. 5y

KathyWheeler @cewilf Thank you. We both felt like we could wallow for today as long as we understood what you said — tomorrow is a new day and a new opportunity. 5y

KathyWheeler @Trashcanman Thank you. I guess we shouldn‘t be surprised by a little setback — we‘ve both accomplished a lot. If this had happened last year though, I would‘ve just cried and given up. So that‘s a positive— only having a one day wallow. 😄 5y

KathyWheeler @FlowerFairy Thank you so much for this. I have to remind myself occasionally of what I‘ve already accomplished. I tend toward the negative most of the time — especially when it‘s about me. I can recognize and applaud others‘ accomplishments but not my own. 5y

cobwebmoth I agree that it's just one less than perfect day. Tomorrow will be better. You've still made great progress! 5y

annahenke Tomorrow is a new day, my friend! It's not exactly been a red letter day for me either. We'll get back at it in the morning! 5y

KathyWheeler @cobwebmoth When we were talking last year about how not to make Thanksgiving a disaster, our nutritionist said, “Make what you want; remember, it‘s a meal not a month.” So we made what we usually do, except I only made 2 pies instead of 5. 😄 I‘ve tried to keep that one-day-at-a-time perspective ever since. 5y

KathyWheeler @annahenke Yes, we will, and I think recognizing that is important. 5y

Megabooks Tomorrow is definitely a new day! I‘m very impressed by that weight loss. I‘ve gained 100 lbs in the past 15 years. (I was a healthy weight before that.) I see a dietician in July, so we‘ll see what happens. Keep pushing through! You got this!! 5y

KathyWheeler @Megabooks Good luck! Make sure the dietician is focused on you being healthy, not just losing weight. One of the things I love about ours is they have no interest in shaming us for being overweight and they will let us know upfront when our goals are unrealistic. 5y

Dragonfairykats You can do it!! You only fail if you stop trying. 5y

twohectobooks You‘re doing a great job!! 5y

Reggie Have you ever seen the 2nd season of the biggest loser where that guy gets immunity and so he packs in the food so he doesn‘t plateau.... and then the next week he finds out he lost twice amount of weight than everyone else. So you just got weighed on your plateau week. You‘re doing great!!! 5y

TheEllieMo Losing 70lbs is an amazing accomplishment; you‘ve done so well and should be so proud. Don‘t let one day put you off track completely, you can do this! 5y

Emilymdxn You‘re still doing incredible tho! Success is never a straight line it‘s always bumpy and ‘ooh am I doing this right‘ shaped. You‘ve got motivation long term and have been trying really hard for so long, and some days of eating more doesn‘t invalidate the hard work you‘ve done. 5y
