HELP! I've fallen and I can't get up!

[Guest guest]

Hi guys, remember me? I'm the lifer who said I was committed to change ...

again. But I've

fallen off the wagon. I saw a 4.5 lb wt. loss the first week on core. Couldn't

make it last

thurs for weigh in - I was held up late at a dr. appt with my daughter. I can

make weigh in

tonight, but I'm totally afraid/embarrassed to go, as I feel I gained back that

4.5 lbs and

then some. This is so depressing. Why do I do this to myself???

~ April

Start weight 193

Goal weight 150

Last weigh in 188.5

Today, I feel like I weigh 300 lbs :-(

Lifetime goal achieved 1991 of 145, lowest weight 137.5

My friend tells me that we repeat things over and over again for two

reasons:

~one - we like it, or

~two - we still have something to learn.

What can you learn from your predicament?

What is it that you are doing every day that is contributing to your

'embarrassment.' Align those things with your embarrassment, because when

you change them - the actions that cause your embarrassment, the consequence

goes away. If you align your actions that cause your embarrassment with

yourself, you will be in that proverbial spiral that leads to gaining

weight. Look at your actions as if you are a director of a play. As the

director, you have full control over what happens. Change your actions in

this way and some of the emotional attachments you have to those actions

(eating to make you feel better) will dissipate, or hopefully go away.

This philosophical moment was brought to you by someone who has been there

before, and probably will be again.

Keep your spirits up. This is only ONE weigh in of many. The next one will

be better.
