Blonde Logic
Yes. You can.
Well, it has been slow, and tough going, but at last, I've dropped a stone. Phew.
Because of the side effects of the meds my docs put me on, I have not been able to abstain completely - there have been days I needed something to thwart of the stomach pains (side effect). It's been hard, and I am pretty certain I have been in and out of ketosis, so a lot of will power was needed.
Glad a stone is gone. I still want to lose more, but will be reintoducing food next week. Will then step up the exercise and do the rest conventionally.
I just have had it with abstinance. !0 months two years ago - a panic revisit over a year later - and now this last event after putting on weight during moms accident and death - I have simply had it with abstaining. lol I don;t mean to put anyone off it - I havejust had more than my share of it.
Been really thinking long and hard about the decision, and feel it's the right one.
I realise, the rush to get it off as fast as possible, was more out of wht others might think of my recent little gain. So I decided sod it - let them think what they want to think. Considering all I have been through the past several months, to now only be a stone over my goal weight makes me feel quite chuffed and proud. Two years ago, I would have put way more then a stone or tw on, and it would have kept on going up up and up some more.
So, there you have it. This is me, saying out load, no more abstaining, ever. For any future blunders, it iwll be through blood, sweat and tears that i lose it.
Now, I will get back to walking and swimming and taking care of myself with healthy nutritional food. ANd I will restore myself to where I was happy and full of energy, etc.
One day at a time.
