I just realized that it's been a while since I updated my blog, and since I'm at home sick today, it's as good a time as any I guess.
I am still doing Thrive and enjoying it. My first week I lost 5 pounds, but my second week, I only lost .8...this might be why I haven't been updating...I was so very disappointed. If I were to guess, I would assume that I had such a bad loss because I haven't been getting my water in. I have had a terrible cold and sore throat and drinking just hasn't been at the top of my list of fun things to do.
I didn't make it to WI last week because, well, it just didn't happen. I had a lot of things going on and the time wasn't there...and if I'm being absolutely honest with myself, it's also because my scale wasn't showing any kind of a loss for my 3rd week on Thrive, and I couldn't bear that to be my official 3rd WI.
I've had a great Thrive week, even getting in my water, then woke up with a stomach virus. I shouldn't complain, because I'm the 4th person in my household to have it this week, but still...this is my blog and I wanna complain and whine. So today I haven't been able to eat hardly at all...and what I have eaten is not Thrive-approved. It stinks to have a blow it day because I'm sick and could only think of a certain cereal to eat, but it is what it is. I have to get better before I can worry about my eating.
I just pray for a loss this week...it is a 2 week loss, and I don't know how I will handle it if I lose another .8! I know I shouldn't focus on the numbers, but on the fact that I feel so much better now than I did...but I can't help it.
Crossing my fingers for a decent loss!
First off, I hope you get feeling better soon. It stinks being sick and having to take care of other sickies. :(
ReplyDeleteYou have been an amazing inspiration. I love how gung ho you have been lately and because of that, I have really been craving my meetings again. So, thank you.
I'm not going to go in to all the ying yang about "when you are not losing lbs, you are losing inches" routine comment, because we both know that no matter what they say, it still sucks. Just bare through this little trial, keep your eyes on the prize, and journey along. Life does happen, but I'm so proud of you and how far you have come!
Aww, thanks so much K! I truly feel that Thrive is what I am meant to do...and I got offered a job with them yesterday, which gives me even more motivation to get this weight off!
ReplyDeleteI would love for you to join me...I miss ya!
I hope to rejoin soon. Probably in the next couple of weeks. I just wish someone else could do my initial grocery shopping and meal planning until I get back in the swing of things. I wish I wouldn't have quit after my 7 wks ended. Now I have all I lost and then some to get back off. Stupid fat busses!
