Patience Sucks
19Jan2008 Filed under: General Author: BobbieI know I have lost 16.5 pounds of blubber off of my formally 235 body and it does feel good as things start to get lose. But what sucks, is I am still fat and it will be awhile before anyone notices. All this hard work and noone notices but me. My friend Pat kind of noticed a few weeks ago but that was AFTER I told her I was doing WW. I still have told noone else because I don’t want people to ask me how WW is going. It is just frustrating to know that I will have to lose 30 pounds before someone might notice. When I lose 30 pounds total I will be at 206 - still FAT! I look forward to the summer because I will not be so FAT but will be FLUFFY instead.
I am whining and complaining and bitching all at the same time here! UGH!
I did get up and do the treadmill. I did that before I did anything for anyone else. My BF called and wanted to know how come I hadn’t called him yet - he’s at work. It is because I decided to take care of me BEFORE I decided to give into the needs of others. It felt good to get that out of the way and then I could call him back and talk for an hour and not feel stressed about still having to do the treadmill. I am getting a cold/allergies take your pick they both bite and the treadmill helped a ton with the sweating and knocking everything lose.
I can’t wait until I lose enough weight that my current pants fall off of me. WHOOT! What a feeling that will be!
Off to the showers to wash some of this pity off of me!

Sometimes it just seems like it is so far away. 16.5 pounds is a heck of a lot, but you are right, we are the only ones that notice.
I try not to think about how much more I have to lose, just take it by mini goals and steps or I think I would get frustrated and quit, so i just have to lose 10 pounds….every time

Losing 16.5 pounds is nothing to sneeze at girlfriend…you are doing great!!! Keep up the exercise and the eating right and it will come off. Better to lose it slower and keep it off plus you can tone it up better.
Everyone is entitled to a pity party every now and then…relieves some of the stress.
You are doing FANTASTIC!!! Keep kicking butt and taking names!!!!
Hugs,
Judy

It takes a long time before people start to notice. The important thing is that YOU know–you feel better, and your clothes fit better, and you’ve had 16.5 lbs. of success so far, and counting! You’re doing great, and you’ll continue doing great.

I understand about not telling anyone. You don’t need the diet police after you. You know, when you eat something and everyone around you tells you that’s not on your plan…. WHATEVER. Bobbie. do it your way and on your terms. I remeber along time ago when the Dutchess was on WW and she said she couldn’t put anything in her mouth without someone saying something. It’s too stressful. BTW Way to go with the 16 I can’t wait to report that on my blog. Only 15 more to go LOL.
