The worse birthday I've ever had...

I want to start off by saying I went to the Dr's and I lost 5.2 pounds.. "Yes"... Today was, (is) my birthday and It was not too good. I spent my birthday sitting at the hair salon for 7hr. My sister asked me to take her goddaughter there and I didn't realize that I was going to be there all G**D*** day. Do you not no that I ate so many cookies, that I stopped counting after 10... I was under a lot of stress. It was post to be my birthday and in my eyes it wasn't... I was mad. I think I gained all 5.2 pounds back plus some.. People pray for me...

We all have those days, you see it, you recognize and just try to do better next time. But all of that to the side, a VERY Happy Birthday to you! Do a do-over and take a day for yourself!

Take another day...all to yourself! Go get a massage, a foot rub, or a manicure. Just you! You can do this! We all have our setbacks. Go on...brush your shoulders off and hold your head up high. And while you are walking away from it....add a little switch to the hips!

Here is the thing with the band you are always in control, Always take snacks with you so when your straned you have the choice in what you eat. 3lbs were you having a menstral cycle possible just getting off or getting ready to start. Weight will flux sometimes around that time I usually get very well restriction and put on about 8lbs. Never feel guilty this is not and exact science. The 6oz rule only eat 6oz every 3-4 hours eat protein first, then veggies then fruits and always prepare in advanced. I am post of 2yrs in Feb and have had to adjust to so many things Ups downs and making a choice to put myself forward. Some time sabbatoge comes in different forms, You just have to say I live for me and me alone, Since I live by that rule I am much happier and my family seems to have finally grasped it. Took them awhile. I also have the advantage of working for a surgeon too now.. Get your adjustments, go to support groups and find friends that are into being healthy and active.. Think of your relationships with family and friends and think about the Toxic relationships they may pose with you.. Mine was my mother and old friends. I just had to tell them I no long had and intrest in being their eating partners. Its so hard to say no and its so hard to do with family.. Im just so glad I did and you may loose friends like I have but I have so much more gained the most luving supportive family I could have ever imagined... I am always here.. Just hang in there...
