Before After

Back On Track?

FINALLY!!!!!  I think I'm finally getting back on track.  I've lost two more pounds after hitting a motivation/progress wall! 

Depression is a funny thing.  Some people stop eating...I apparently can't help but eat regardless!  LOL!  I have no doubt that through the last 15 pounds some things have changed in my system..."chemically".  There really isn't any other explination to my recent depression relapse.

That little haze is lifting a bit now, though.  I still battle with it daily...some worse than others.  But instead of craving food for comfort, I'm now craving exercise.  I guess that is some progress in my way of "thinking".  I don't think I've ever craved a walk!  I guess the mind sometimes knows what is best for itself.  It's craving it's own natural anti-depresent.  Funny how that works.

Best thing yet is that I now have a walking partner.  So, I have some encouragement in that aspect.  Plus...my competitive nature will surely kick into high gear as her weightloss is progressing pretty well!  Nothing like a good old swift kick of pride and jealousy to get you moving!  Hey....whatever works, I say!

Anyway.  Best wishes for all my fellow Xtralbs Peeps!
