everyone is different...

May 29, 2011

I just keep trying to tell myself that what my husband says is true. Just because I'm not losing as fast as everyone else doesn't mean I'm not losing.  I started this journey with my doctor in October and had to wait out my little 6 month period I started at 239 and because of the holiday I only went up from there. That really wasn't the highest though I was almost 260 when I graduated December 09'. My point is this.... today the scale moved again and it says 212 which is amazing but since the day of surgery I have only lost 15 pounds and I watch the boards and see that some people have lost so much more.... I know I'm not supposed to be comparing myself but its hard. I'm conflicted because I know I'm losing and its great but I'm inpatient and I know I shouldn't compare. I should be thrilled that I'm so close to my first goal which is to be less then 200 pounds.  I made it there one time and promised I would never go back but I did. Now that I'm so close again I fear that same thing will happen. I want this to be a forever change not just a right now change. 

Ok so that was all over the place.... I know I rambled but it feels good to get it out to someone besides my hubby all the time.
