After a 1 pound loss last week and nothing allllllll week this week I was feeling sorta defeated. Also, even tho I had some cashiers where I shop notice(one a family friend) I still hadn't gotten that WOW reaction I was sooo craving.. It took almost 60 pounds gone but yesterday I got my WOW in a big way! Ran into an old friend and her reaction was clearly visible and verbal with "WOW, you look great, you've lost a lot of weight!" I tell you fellow mmt'ers I coulda grabbed her and danced around right there.
She asked a lot of questions and asked where I was "going" like a gym or something I guess she was thinking. I was like, ummmm home? I order the products online and I have yet to work out.
She seemed pretty impressed and I am wondering if I might get a call from her sometime soon. lol
My daughter went to stay overnight with her friend..and their like my psuedo-family since my mom and dad live so far away. They hadn't seen me since about 30 pounds gone and they were very impressed..btw contrary to what I believed my psuedo mom said that my umm cupcakes HAD gotten smaller..lol I got the reaction of someone addressing my bottem and saying "Ginaa? Gina?? Where did you go?" Maybe that means they think I am an
...nevermind.
The hubby and I went up to my mother-in-laws. She only lives about 40 min away but I hadn't seen her since before I started loseing weight. All of the family there was blown away..I felt "small" all day yesterday.
Alll of that feedback did wonders for my morale as I hadn't lost any weight alllll week. I kept staying compliant and I kept drinking my water but no dice. I was hopeing and praying for a kerplunk of any kind and this morning I got my kerplunk. 2 pounds gone allowing me to hop into the 60 pound club and giving me a renewed sense of purpose.
Sorry this is so long, I feel like I have been saving up and it just comes gushing out all at once.
I also wanted to share...In talking to an overweight friend of mine the other day and discussing how miserable I was at my highest and how miserable she is. I said something to her that is really helping me..I guess I needed to verbalize it to really get it myself.
I told her that some days on this plan I AM miserable. I feel really sorry for myself. BUT, I would rather be miserable once in awhile, while working toward my goals and knowing that I will reach them. Then fat and miserable and doing absolutely nothing about it..cause, guaranteed if I don't lose I will STAY miserable. It has helped me a lot this week when I was struggling.
Anywayyy, Thanks for listening to me ramble...Keep Shaking, it is worth it!
Hugs,
Gina
