Found it.
The 100 g loss last week has been found again.
But seriously, it’s the week of Xmas, Xmas Eve. I’ve been nibbling at nice things, things I don’t normally eat. Even made some homemade baileys yesterday, and nearly fell into the oven. Leg wasn’t happy. But all good. I survived and tried a sip last night. It was worth it.
Christmas for me and many others isn’t a happy time. My children disappeared 12 Christmases ago. Their dad, parental alienation. Need I say more. But these things all weigh on my mind. My body goes into overdrive sensing the emotions that well up inside me. It says where, where do I need to fix. But there’s nothing it can do. So metabolism slows or grinds to a halt as I just try to make it through the season, one that’s very difficult to escape from. I know there’s some here who are going through similar, or different scenarios. Lost loved ones, illness and so it goes.
I’m delving into my self care toolbox today. Xmas music will be played loud. I’ll allow myself to grieve but set a time limit. I’ll be gentle with myself. Funny movies. Write a poem. Wear my ‘Get naughty’ tshirt. What was I thinking when I bought that. 😳🙄 And limit the nibblies.
I’m grateful my weight is holding around the 79 mark. I’m eating healthy main meals. I’m taking care of my mental health. I’m doing my torture exercises for physio post op, from my physiotorturist. I just need to make it through this festive time. Then my weight will start to drop again, I know that.
Take care of you. Merry Christmas and stay safe. 🎅
