Day 235
I am sure anyone who has always struggled with their weight will understand why today's entry is so exciting for me.
I have always hated my bathroom scales. She is a bitch that always tells me the truth in numbers, even when I don't want to hear it! These past couple of years have really been disasterous for my weight. I have gained 20kg thanks to stress, work and bad habits. It has been a huge roller coaster of emotions and no time or energy.
It started when I was working as a manager in our local video store. That probably doesn't sound like much to you, but I was expected to do all the extra work (like the accounts, BAS and EOFY etc) with no training and no idea of what I was doing! All this extra work was also supposed to be done while bringing down the staffing budget, so I was either doing the accounts while still working in the store, or I would be doing them late at night on my own time without pay (which was my own stupid way to try and bring wages down). Needless to say all the extra pressure and stress caused me to get very stressed and sick. I started skipping meals and eating incorrectly for a long while that when I started dieting it seemed no matter what I did, my body wouldn't shed the weight. It was so frustrating!!
Anyway that gives a bit of useless background information into why I am so excited about my post for today. Because today when I stepped on my dreadded scales I was excited to see that the numbers have finally starting going in the right direction! Down! I have lost 3kg and have kept it off and the numbers are still falling! Finally I think I am in the right place (mentally and physically) for this miracle to start happening! This has given me the hope and incentive to keep forging ahead!
