Not Sure What to Believe...

Mar 07, 2012 14:57

When I posted last week, it looked like I'd lost a few more pounds, for a total weight loss this year of 12.4 pounds. Those last two weigh-ins were done standing on one foot, with a splint resting on the scale and me making my best effort to not lean any of my weight on the crutches that were helping me stay upright ( Read more... )

When I messed up my foot and then my ankle, I had grand plans of exercising. Didn't happen and in reality, looking back, it shouldn't have. My body needed all the energy it had to get through my daily life and direct healing towards my feet.

Give yourself the ability to look at this as another way of loving yourself and transforming yourself that doesn't have to do with the weight at the moment. Don't worry about the scale. You are researching foods and SOLE. You are planning your garden. Do what you can at this time, be kind and gentle with yourself.

I'll be more blunt - Hide the scale and don't look at it for the duration you have a cast on your foot. There, permission to take care of yourself for yourself and not for the scale. ;)

You have Awareness of what you are eating (since you have to ask for it for now), you are Practicing at Attention to how/when/why you are eating. Keep that practice up. Healing is going to take energy which comes from caring for yourself through thought AND food.

I'm with Krissy here. Take care of you. Worry about weight loss later.

I'll get to it but first: I've been keeping track of my mileage by recording how much gas it takes to fill the tank and assuming that when I filled up last time it was to the exact same point in the tank. So I was just replacing the gas that was used and could use that new-gas measure to calculate used-gas. But I don't use the same pump or even the same station so I may be close but there is no way I'm accurate. Still, it's close enough so I'm going to keep with it and over time the variations will even out. I get about 44mpg. Maybe ( ... )
