well, i'm having a great day. sun is shining, birds are singing, summer is in the air. i feel like i'm on top of the world and for the first time like i belong at the top hehe
i was talking to Goran today and i realized that i don't have any doubt anymore that i will lose this weight. so far i enjoyed this journey and all, but i never had exactly that feeling, more of a hope. but now i'm 100% sure i actually will lose this weight.
 
I am pretty good Lena, thanks for asking. Trying to get rid of extra stress in my life at the moment.
 
Good Afternoon friend, It's good to see your having a great Monday. I hear you on the sun shining and birds singing, I was happy to see that myself this morning. Salsa Oh yeah!! That's a blast, keep dancing my friend, that will knock off those pounds FAST! Have a good one!

Kim, my friend, i would like to dance away through life if i could. when i was a kid i did dance, but my parents couldn't afford anymore classes for me so i had to quit. but i really love to dance :D

yesterday i was at my workout. we had my favorite instructor, the other one was sick, so i really enjoyed my workout. she usually trains tae bo, but its very high in intensity so its still not recommended for me. but i though i might go once or twice just to see where i'm at :D
she told me i am very good at my training, and that i am one of the rare ones who do the exercises properly. i told her that's because i like quality and not quantity :D and she's the same lol

a big hug to you all from sunny Croatia :D
 
Morning Lena,
Hugs and smooches on the cheek to you girl!! Quality I agree is better than quantity. And if an instructor says your doing good, give yourself a pat on the back. I think the world of you and oh by the way, I read that Essay and spent about 30 minutes typing you back, to find out DUH, it wouldnt let me send you an email with more than X amount of letters, I was ticked off!! HAHAHAHA, but in a short note, You are not alone, believe me, we all have our stories, maybe not as severe, but certainly as painful. We are here for you and we care!! I'm glad your here and I look forward to many more essays in the future!! Take care and have a great day!

yes they are. i did so many workouts last few days i really need a break lol
 
well i'm not really in good mood today. i feel some kind of burden which i can't really explain. i feel the need to explode and don't really know why.
i have been in such a good mood lately, and i guess i didn't want the bad to hit, so i obviously kept something in since its coming out this way. i just feel sad. and the fact that i have by some miracle gained 2 lbs really doesn't help. i know its because of constipation i had last few days. i just feel the need to cry but i can't.
i hate it when i feel like this. i know i should just let myself feel, but i hate it when it happens in the morning and i get to work like this and just have to put on masks.
so i'm frustrated, i have this big urge to go away and just do nothing for days. did i mention i'm a bit overwhelmed at work?
on a happier note i did bunch of exercise past few days. i did my usual totoal body workout and walk on monday, did tae bo on tuesday and yesterday i did aerobic-salsa and half hour tae bo yesterday. and then i gained 2 lbs?????? yea right.

sorry i feel frustrated. and sorry for having a pitty party. i will be better soon, i just need to get this out of my system.

Lena
 
Your gaining sounds like my last week and a half. I was so frustrated I just didn't know what to do. My weight went from a couple of weeks' steady 67 kg to 68,5 at the worst. And I kept on exercising and eating sensibly the whole time. Funnily enough when I had two days almost without exercise the weight finally went down. This morning my scale said 66,4.
I could live without the bipolar feelings that the number on the scale is giving me. Unbelievably happy when the number goes down, instantly in a bad mood or simply sad when it goes up. I'm thinking the only way to achieve a mental balance is to strengthen your belief in what you're doing, instead of thinking of the results. Try to be happy when you do what you know is good for you and don't care about the short term results.
At least here at the WLF you can trust somebody to tell you if you're NOT doing the right things. :) And I tell you YOU ARE DOING GREAT!
I feel for you, having just been through what you're going through there weight-losswise. The brighter days WILL COME!!! :)
Just keep going and don't go away!
Juliette
 
thank you juli for being here for me :)

i do believe in myself, i don't doubt this weight will come off. this was just icing on my mood today and made me feel worse. i don't know, maybe i just gathered negative things and now i'm feeling it. or maybe i just need a good rest. i know its not possible to have gained. but i noticed a change in my intestinal system (i think that's the word) after i had a hot dark chocolate a few days ago. it didn't sit on my stomach well. i had cramps and after that i'm really having problems with my usual toilette routine (man i'm polite lol). i just don't feel myself inside, and its showing on the outside.
i know those 2 lbs will come off, i'm not upset about that. i am just sad. well it probably has to do with my dad being drunk yesterday. i hate it when things affect me like this. i wish i could separate myself from things going on around me which i can't influence. so all of it mixed together and you have my mood today.
sorry i'm rambling again...
 
Dear Lena,
Your first problem I think I can solve: 2 big tablespoons of linseed (flaxseed) and 5-8 pitted prunes soaked about an hour in a glass of water. Eat that, you're stomach will love it.
The second one, not so easy..
Although I'm not really religious, I find the idea in this prayer very valuable:
Give us grace to accept with serenity the things that cannot be changed,
courage to change the things that should be changed,
and the wisdom to distinguish the one from the other.
It has given me something to lean on in difficult situations. I seem to come back to it from time to time.
I'm really sorry about your dad, I have only a vague idea how that must feel. And of course it has it's effect on you, that's unavoidable. I hope that you can turn these feelings to your own benefit in time. Have your sadness and bad mood and when your ready, rise from it stronger than before.
You have a strong foundation in yourself to rise from!
Julie
 
hey lenababy. hope your tummy is feeling better - juli is right .. prunes can work wonders ;)
