No matter the plan... we all Blog to Lose!
Mind over matter?
Hello everyone! I just found Blog to Lose and can't wait to get involved! I have a question for everyone but a couple of sentances for background.
I have lost 90lbs in the past 1.5 years. Great right? I know I should be so so proud, but I am stuck on my goal of loosing 100lbs total. It's been 4 months since I lost any weight and even though I'm at a healthy place right now, I can't get my mind to be thankful & happy with everything I've done. Mind over matter sounds so easy, pretty easy to type it but how do I DO IT? What do I do to help just accept where I am and be happy? Any thoughts?

ohhh this is so tough. I'm there with ya.
I feel best when I'm working hard at the gym. I get lost in my progress on a fitness level instead of a weight or body shape level. That's been helping... a lot!

I don't know the answer to that and i so wish i did. I lost 70 lbs. and still saw the fat girl in the mirror. Then several months ago i had two surgeries 6 months apart which left me unable to do much at all so since then i have gained 20 pounds. Now i look at the after pic from the 70 lb. loss. and think God I looked great. What is that about? I think our minds have to catch up with our bodies. Untill that happens i guess we just need to continue to seek support and affirmations from our peers. Jen, you look great, absolutely awesome and you are so beautiful and brave to throw such honesty out there....What an ispiration you are.

I agree Mary, that at some point, our mind will have to catch up with our bodies. It's so hard though, to know that I don't see what everyone else see's. At some point, I feel like it should happen...just want it to happen sooner rather then later!

90 lbs is an amazing accomplishment! You lost an entire Lindsat Lohan! Haha. That is so wonderful, people spend their whole lives trying to lose weight and don't come close to that. Its very impressive. You should focuz more on getting toned now rather than the number of pounds. Good luck and congrats!
