frustration

at the beginning of december, i was 10 pounds lighter than i am now. how is that possible? how could i have let myself gain 10 pounds in a little less than 2 months? i saw the scale creep up to 124 and said 'that's okay, it's christmas.' i saw the scale creep up to 127 and said 'that's okay, i am going to start eating healthier again soon.' i saw the scale creep up to 130 and said 'that's okay, it's probably water weight.'

hey self! i am here to tell you that it is NOT okay! stop making excuses!!!

    1. i believe i am probably much smaller than you. (i don't mean that in a snotty way, just an i'm-shorter-than-everyone way). i am 4 foot 11 inches and VERY small-boned. my ideal weight range is 95 pounds to 115 pounds. weighing 130 is in the overweight category and 153 (my starting weight 2 years ago) is obese. not only that but it feels yucky. i would be content getting down to 110 pounds.

  2. Ah I see!! Yep I am 5'8 so no wonder our ideal weights are so far apart. I am small boned too though and I know exactly how it feels to be carrying too much weight for your frame. We can do it :) Every day I try to remember that God made these bodies for us - the least we can do is to look after them the best we can, until we are returned back to Him :)
