I Love my family! I became a Grandma Last year. My Husband, Kids and Grand Kids are the Loves of my life. I want to be healthy so I can be around to enjoy my family for a long time.

Been MIA

Well I have been busy with the family. My mind and home have felt a bit cluttered lately. I figure if I work on getting the clutter out of my house my mind wont feel so stressed.

My DH's Grandmother is having Congestive heart failure. and has been in the hospital since Thursday. She has asked the family to let her go so she isn't hooked up  to anything and is in lots of pain.

I am doing OK staying OP last night was rough because we went out to my DH uncles house and the family all was there having beverages. But I stayed OP. I still find myself afraid of the dreaded scale. I am afraid to weigh in tomorrow. I shouldn't be scarred because I am now in a size 8 misses I have dropped from a size 18W. I guess what I am most afraid of is hitting a plateau. I should be happy with my 60 pound weight loss.

My Grandson is going to be a year now the 27th of this month. I am secretly missing my not being tied down do anything I want time. I have been a 24/7 grandma to him and I am wearing down.

My daughter started the program and seriously she is driving me crazy! She wants tortilla she wants sugar. and is acting like a spoiled brat! so now I am dealing with 2 babies and on occasion 3 when My DH acts up. I want to run away by myself.

I am so tired I think thats why my mind feels cluttered.

Say a prayer for me that this black cloud lifts.

Well I gotta dash for now. I will post more later.

I totally understand. I will say a prayer for you. I keep telling myself that God won't give us more than we can handle. Maybe your daughter isn't ready for MF. That part is up to her and you need to let her know you support her but this is her journey and you can encourage but it's up to her to find the willpower to love her self enough to stick to it. You are a wonderful example to her. Wow, a size 8. You go girl!!!

Hehe, your life sounds like mine, except I'm the mother of three small children (and a fourth if you count DH) lol.

At one point, I purposely slowed down my weight loss to get through the holidays, but at the same time, I really increased my exercising. What I'm finding now is doing 45-60 minutes of good cardio exercise has really boosted me. I'm losing lbs (I'm in maintenance now, but want to lose a few and get in better shape to keep up with the kids!). I only allow myself one day off a week from the exercise. Believe it or not, it has actually given me more energy; I usually do my exercise on a treadmill while the 2 year old naps. Otherwise, that time of the day, I'm so ready to crash.

Don't know if that suggestion might help or not to give you the extra energy and break the plateau.
