Tai-Lin的日记, 2017年12月24日

It should come off very quickly, it's usually just the change of food and preservatives. I ate out on Friday - put on 2 kilos, 1 has come off already. 

Tal-lin, Don't be hard on yourself and for God's sake do be ashamed to post if you've gained weight.That's what the FS Family is all about our success and failures, then get back on track again and continue down that road to final success. 

Agree with murphthesurf 

It’s a journey. Try not to beat yourself up. You’ll be more aware of the cause and effect next time. Some of what the scale is telling you is water weight. I ate too many carbs with family, and probably too much salt, and it took me a whole week to get back to where I was before my trip.  

a Merry Christmas to you Tai-Lin and this is only a blip...you will blop back cause you are persevering (as this post proves)  

Amen to all 5 comments - this is a life long journey and sometimes we end up on a scenic detour - just keep heading in the right direction!  

Happy*Snappy, I like that scenic detour.😀 

Tal-lin, don’t hesitate! 🙋🏻‍♀️That’s what FS is for! I too hesitated because I was sick and back and forth in and out of surgeries and didn’t want to bring my buddies down and ended up depriving myself of much needed support and gaining back about 20 lbs from near my goal. 🙇🏻‍♀️ Life hits! Oh, well. This is how it’s gonna be. If we make it a lifestyle that we learn to lock ourselves into and build up foundational behaviors to support we should make it!🙆🏻 I too have willpower issues. Meaning I have none! LOL Don’t let me near donuts or those brownies or the darn andes cookies! (Which I have to bake tomorrow!) So dig back in and do what you can, don’t beat yourself up!🙋🏻 

Merry Christmas to you! 

Happy holidays, and kudos for the post! Part of this journey is being brave and honest with yourself, and FS is great mirror for that. This community is so incredibly helpful, and I truly hope you feel the support. We are here. :) Keep at it and prioritize yourself! 

It’s ok if u mess up every now n then, what matters is the consistency 

*murphthesurf - some of the most awesome people I've met in my life has been on those scenic detours - I wouldn't trade meeting them for anything! Sure it may take me a little longer to get where I'm going but what an adventure !! ☺ 

Thank you all so much for the kind and helpful words. I am so glad to know you are all on this journey with me, and there to encourage me to get back up when i fall. (It just struck me funny that i chose to make that last statement, because i literally DID fall.) Christmas Eve, after dark, i started to walk down our long country driveway to the mailbox by the main road. For the first time in ten years we had snow on Christmas Eve (AND Christmas!) All of a sudden, i slipped on some ice, and went down like a ton of bricks ~ directly on my tailbone. At first, i couldn't get up, but it's amazing how quickly the thought of someone coming up the driveway, and not seeing me lying in the middle of it, helped me to get to my feet. I forgot about the mail and came back in the house. By then i realized my bottom was REALLY hurting. When i was 15 i was thrown from a horse and broke my tailbone. I had trouble sitting for any length of time for years after that, and had to use one of those foam doughnut pillows to sit on to keep the pressure off my tailbone, especially when driving. I was almost positive Christmas Day that i had broken, or re-injured, it again because it hurt so badly. I can walk just fine, once on my feet, but sitting down, getting up from sitting, lying down, and bending over all hurt. Oddly, it doesn't hurt too much to drive, but getting in and out of my car seat is a killer! It hadn't improved much by yesterday, so i went to the doctor and they x-rayed my bum. Turns out, i didn't re-break it (or break anything else), i just have a bad contusion. She said it will take several weeks to get better. She told me to take Ibuprofen (i haven't been taking anything up to now), and she had me buy another foam doughnut, and use it whenever i'm sitting. It actually did feel a little bit better this morning, and i could bend over a little farther ~ until, that is, i had to go to the store, and got in my car, and out, and back in...etc. By the time i got home, i was back to square one. I AM thankful, however, that i didn't break anything ~ especially a hip. My mother fell in the kitchen years ago, and broke a hip, and had to lie on the kitchen floor all day until my step-father got home that evening. She went to a nursing home after her hospital stay, and never came home again. She passed away, still in the nursing home. I haven't been exercising until this morning, when i just "ran" in place for ten minutes for the first time since Christmas Eve. I HAVE, of course, still been eating, so i guess i am still on the scenic detour! LOL I wish each of you a wonderful, happy, healthy New Year. May 2018 be your best, yet! 

Happy incredible wonderful stressfree awe inspiring healthy New Year !!!!!! This is only a point in time - reset tomorrow - Go Green - Get mad - Get angry - You got this under control - We are here with you for support - Everybody stumbles - We are human -
