I'm so bummed this morning!!! :(

[sandooch]

It actually started last night when I realized that I had left my leather jacket at mass yesterday. I called the office this morning to see if anyone had turned it in, but I had to leave a message because they weren't open yet. Then this morning I had a fight on the phone with my sister (we rarely fight) that left me in tears. Now, to top it off, I decided to weigh myself this morning because I hadn't in about six weeks. The last time I weighed in was when I hit 140.

Now I know I had put on a few pounds because I wasn't able to do my exercise for 4 weeks due to bronchitis and I went back to eating carbs again. But I was in shock to see that I was 150.5 this morning!!! [V] That just put me over the edge. I worked so hard to get my weight off over the past 2 years and to put on 10.5 pounds in 6 weeks astounds me. I know, I know...don't be a slave to the scale but it still depresses me.

I wanted to do a 7-day bootcamp last week and had to stop after 3 days because I re-pinched a nerve in my upper back. I'm planning on taking it easier and not pushing so hard this week. Maybe I need to build up to a boot camp. I'm also going to start to eat better. I felt so great at 140 but did not get to enjoy it for very long.

I hope this day gets better. I need a hug!!!

Oh chica!!!

How are your clothes fitting? Have you measured your bod recently?

Lots of hugs for you!! Reading some of your posts has really kept me inspired and determined so don't give up. Get back on the wagon slowly <grin> and keep going. You've been a great support to me even when I'm just lurking and you can do it!!

And good grief, chicken, watch out for that big Budweiser truck that tends to follow the wagon. Don't let it run you over or clip a sexy gam while you're climbing back up there.

Hmmmm. Maybe I should commandeer the beer truck.....to keep it from going after you???

I can do that.

I mean for you, Sandy. I'd risk myself for you.



Keep your chin up, chica!

Thanks girls!

Ginger--Since I haven't gotten much exercise in (only a few days of T-Tapp here and there) because of illness/injury, my clothes are tighter and my measurements are up. I also measured this morning and my bust and hips are up one inch. My waist and tummy are up an inch and a half and my thighs three-quarters of an inch. Grrr! I know I'll get it off, it's just so frustrating!

The church called back and no one turned in my jacket. Well, I hope the enjoy wearing it. [V]

Hey, what happened to my signature? Did the new forum delete everyone's profiles? I don't like how the new profiles are set up. How do we post pictures or add a signature?

Sandy

[gingerb]

Yep, no sigs now, as of yet. Doesn't look like it'll be coming back in the future either.

((MORE HUGS)))

Sandy -

Girl, I've seen your pic and you are BEAUTIFUL! Don't be too hard on yourself - life happens. Just get back on the T-Tapp wagon soon. If all you can manage today is PBS, that's okay...just DO it. Teresa would tell you, "yes, you can!"

Sending you lots of warm hugs from the frozen north!!

Thank you for the kind words, hugs and advice. Over the weekend, I was actually looking forward to getting back to T-Tapp starting today (my back is feeling much better), but this blue mood is just bumming me out so bad I can't find the will to start it. If only I could win the lottery of something; that would cheer me up. Oh, you mean I have to actually play the lottery to win it. Oh, I see!

Well, tomorrow is another day. It's bound to be better. And come heck or high water, I will do my T-Tapp today!

Some days it is hard not to be bummed about whatever seems to be going wrong...

Stay off the scales! Don't worry about the pounds, just concentrate on the inches. And the good news is that the inches will come off when you get back to tapping. If you can't do anything else, try just doing PBS and Hoe downs every day, and keep up the body brushing.

Feel better!
