My eating habits have been sub-par, but I've been able to at least maintain the small meals ensuring that I'm not overeating during this incredibly stressful time in my life.
And you know what? I've been successful. My weight today is 177.5 pounds, which is seven pounds less from my last weigh in on July 19th. This brings my total weight loss to 20.5 pounds over the past 8 1/2 weeks for an average weight loss of 2.4 pounds per week. Right on target of my goal of losing 2 pounds of fat a week.
Even though I haven't weighed myself, I knew I was getting smaller. Over the past couple weeks, my clothes have been getting looser and looser and today's weigh in confirms this.
I'm really happy about this success. It shows me (and hopefully you, too) that even when our lives take a nose dive and everything seems to fall apart, we don't have to give in to emotional eating, sabotaging our efforts to lose FAT. I've also been able to maintain a level of activity with walking each day.
Life is stressful right now, but I don't have to let that cause me to overeat... and neither do you.
Are you hanging in there with me? I hope so..
Until next time..

I'm happy for your weight loss, and I'm sorry to hear that your father is ill. That said, I'm glad you found a way to be close to him. Remember to take care of yourself. What area of TN are you in? I lived just outside of Kingston, TN from 83-85. Glad to hear you're doing well!
