Today I'm giving myself credit for losing my 80 pounds. I carried a 20-pound box of kitty litter upstairs and that always reminds me that I use to carry the equivalent of four 20-pound boxes upstairs all the time. Grateful that so far no friends or family has gotten the virus.

Credit: for diligently following my regimen, for increasing exercise time and adding a new routine, for finally returning to goal weight and free ETOOLs!!! Gratitude: that all of us here on the threads and in our circles are all still healthy, for beautiful weather. bbbearsmom, Great job!!! It’s easy to lose sight of that awesome achievement when we do the daily tasks of maintaining. What did you do differently to maintain your weight the last time? |

luvvinlife, Well, I joined WW this time because I was scared of getting Type-2 diabetes, and I mean scared. I had a feeling in the pit of my stomach because I was so scared I couldn't do this. My friend's cousin was dying from diabetes and I had been hearing about her going downhill for over a year which was what scared me so much. Also I knew this was all on me and I was so worried I couldn't get my act together to do this. I looked back over the last two times I got to goal and gained the weight back. In both case when the going got tough I gave up, stopped going to meetings, not understanding the need for support. I also knew I had a problem with my "short-circuited" thinking (sabotaging thoughts). I started online and the WW message boards gave me wonderful support. When I read a post about "The Beck Diet Solution" and sabotaging thoughts I knew I had found a book to assist me in doing this. Also I realized that I had to do this the rest of my life because the laws of the physical world were not going to change and if I gained my weight back I would get diabetes. I have enough problems with my depression I didn't need managing diabetes on top of that.
