Hi everyone,
Hi Donna
Hope you are feeling alot better today, rotten time of the year to be under the weather.
I am like you I have approx. 10 lbs to meet my listed goal here, I am sure that our bodies try to hold on to that weight. I think the body wants to hold on to the fat in case we go into starvation. That is my thought.
Not sure of the science behind it but it make sence. Also for our hights we might already be in what is considered to be normal weight.
Donna I have been in Canada nine years last October, I had my third son brought him up to meet his Nanna then decided that I did not want to leave him, I had never had the opportunity to be at home with my first two boys, My husband was working here in Canada and flying back and forth to Trinidad, he was away from us, three months or more at time. So that was difficult. So we made the move. It has been diffucult at times. The last year has been the hardest, I think it is because it has finally hit me that Canada now has be be my home. I still think of Trinidad as home, plus my older boys really don't have an interest in living here. My parents are getting older and I am not there. Many things. Changing to this way of life has made quite a diffrence. Those things are still there but I can cope with them better. Having Cindy in my life is also very helpful.
Yesterday I made cookiees and a sprice cake for my family. I was told by DH and kids that it was good. I was happy to make something homemade for them, but I did not feel the need the eat any.
Went to the children's christmas concert. It was great, my daughter is such a Ham, she loves being on stage. She is so like me.......... life is my stage. My son did very well also.
Today I am going to bake some more for the family. We also have a school outing to a pool. It will be first time in a swimsuit since my weight loss. We will see if I do swim. It should be fun.
Still staying on track, not drinking as much water, so busy that I forget, and it will happen today because I am going to the pool, don't want to have to be rushing off to the wash room all the time.....
Any way Girls keep posting I know that it is difficult and trying to find the time is hard but we can do this together. Keep reading.
All the Best Everyone.
Warmest Regards,
Joy
