170.8
I haven't written in this blog for a long time. I reread previous posts to see the struggle I've had with weight. I don't want to "struggle" with weight. I want to live a healthy life, using the tools I have and know, being at goal and healthy, active, comfortable. I want to be able to wear any clothes in my closet and not worry if some are too tight. I want to be a role model for others who want to lose weight and maintain that loss.
I've struggled the last month+ with emotional eating, dealing with Dave's medical issues. But one should not be connected with the other. What I DO precedes my SUCCESS. I have to eat healthy so I can lose weight. I have to lose weight so I can be at goal. My binging and overeating and eating garbage will not get me to goal. Instead, following program, walking, making healthy choices are what I need to DO. The actions will precede my success.
I need to be healthy and emotionally happy with myself and my weight in order to be good support for Dave as we tackle his illness. Being miserable and overweight and negative will not allow me to give the best support to Dave. As the caregiver, I need to be in the best place (physically, emotionally, mentally) that I can be. I can be in the place.
Today is Day #1. On program, healthy choices, no binging, walk 3.2 miles. Be positive.
