- re 's ramblings

[Guest guest]

Hi and everyone,

, congratulations on your weight loss - another loser (in the best

possible way [or should that be 'weigh'?!?!?!?!?!?!] of course.

When I read posts like this I keep asking myself how I managed to survive my

week without being able to participate in WLB. This sort of positive message is

just so inspirational.

Of course we are the ones who have to make the commitment and effort on our own

personal weight loss/lifestyle change journey but I agree 500% when you say how

good it is to have the help and support of family, friends and WLB.

>>>>I've learned that fueling my body the right way for me is so important. <<<<

I must plead ignorance - I have never heard of the PCOS diet. What does it

stand for? How does it work? What shines through loud and clear though is that

you have now made a commitment to a regime that suits YOU. That is so important

because everyone responds to different stimuli and what is right for one person

won't be right for another.

>>>>I've learned putting me first is important sometimes.<<<<

Isn't that a great breakthrough. We so often neglect ourselves due to some sort

of feeling of guilt. I wish that I could have worked out 40 years ago that it

is more logical to feel guilt about neglecting myself. Taking time for

ourselves is NOT selfish. By looking after our own needs we gain personally

but, because we feel better and healthier, we are also better able to devote

care and attention on our loved ones.

>>> Even though someone wanted me to stay and chat about another project. I

said no and choose me. And I have no regrets. For this to work I have to be

committed.<<<<

I think we should make that last sentence our WLB " Thought for the week " . Well

said .

Thanks for sharing your wonderful week with us,

Marie
