Mood today was sad

Tam.....Have you ever been tested for food allergies? I was noticing the days you post when you say you feel sad. Could there be a tie in to what you're eating that causes your emotions to act up? For myself, I'm allergic to gluten. The program I am doing, I'm supposed to not have bread products for the first 6 weeks.

I've noticed on days that I've cheated and eaten a bagel(with cream cheese of course), then I'm moodier. Don't know if it's because I know I've cheated, or because of the gluten in the bagel.

Next time you talk to your primary doctor, see if they can run a blood test to determine if you might have a food allergy. They may be able to put u on a restrictive plan-to only eat what's on the plan, to help your your emotions from going from high to low or sad every day. Worth a try. Just a lil' advice. You don't have to take it if you don't want to.

I love you....

well ummmmmmmm was super busy today and really hot so ummmmmmmmm
about 8:30ish I had some dry cereal

Have you gone to a doctor? They should not only test your thyroid, but also your cortisol levels. Both things can make you not lose weight on 1200 calories a day. The cortisol is a too much issue and it is increased when we are stressed. So stress can make people gain weight even when they aren't eating more.

It is one thing to have gained weight for years eating food as a comfort. It is another to eat almost nothing and not lose weight. Please ask your doctor if he/she is aware of the cortisol relationship to weight, and if she/he isn't then find one that is and get tests run. I know, it costs money. Health issues from being overweight cost money also. I really hope you will find out if this is the issue.

Sunday April 10

8:00 donut and milk
11:00 Turkey sandwich with lettuce and cheese and water
2:00 water water water
6:00 Cheeseburger helper and water
8:00 tablespoon ice cream (ha ha) Just couldn't help myself. :D

was busy working on fence again. Go to see the nutritionist today. UGH

Yes I have had all kinds of labs done. Just meant to be fat is all I can say. dunno

Tammmmmmm...

*hugss* girl....Nobody's "meant" to be fat. We did it to ourselves. By the choices we made to put what we did/didn't in our mouths.

Losing weight is hard, sis! I used to beat myself up about it, but heard someone say, one time "we didn't gain the weight overnight...we're not going to lose it overnight."

Suprisingly, that made sense to me...and made me realize that I didn't have to feel I was in a race to see how fast I could lose weight anymore.

There are no "quick fixes". It's all about eating better, smaller portions and eating more often to keep the "fuel in our furnace" stoked, which gives us the energy we need to be able to accomplish even the smallest of tasks.

Good luck with the nutritionist! They'll set you on a good path, and soon you'll find that by eating better you'll start to feel better.

I'll keep you in prayer.
