Starting Over

[vfb2girls]

Well I finally got the nerve to step back on the scale after not weighing in for a month and yes I gained back the 10 pounds I had stuggled to lose for my disney trip. I have not been following my plan but I did mange to still work out at least 4 times a week, I can only imagine how much more I would of put on if I hadn't! The stress level in this house is beyond anything that I have ever lived with. My son-in-law is in the middle of the fighting in Iraq and we haven't heard from in in over a week. My daughter who is three weeks for delivery may be induced next Monday because her blood pressure has become dangerously high. It has not been a good week at all. I was going to wait until the baby came to get back on program but decided this morning that I can't avoid to gain anymore weight, so I am back with it. So thanks for letting me vent, I am so glad I have found you guys here to help encourage me toward attaining my goal.

I'm so sorry to hear about your very stressful situation, vfb2girls. I'll keep your family in my thoughts and prayers. And give your daughter a big, big from all of us.

I think it's great that you've continued working out! That's a very positive thing and something that's not always easy to do when things get rough. It's also a great stress reducer. You may also find as you get back on plan that a large part of the 10 pounds is water and will come right back off.

I know that you're going to be very busy in the coming weeks, but let us know how things are going when you get a chance.

I know a little bit how your daughter feels. I was on bed rest for two weeks and then induced two weeks before my due date because of my blood pressure. Tell her to try not to worry about it. It was actually kind of nice knowing you had an appointment to have your baby instead of stressing over when it is going to happen. If you have any questions about it that I could help with I would be glad to try and answer them. Good luck getting back op! I think it is great you have decided to stop waiting and start right now.

My neice just found out last week that her husband our nephew is not going to be back for about 3-months he was supposed to be back at the end of this month - he's been gone for 1 year now! Its VERY HARD! I hope all the people over in Iraq stay safe and come home soon!

I hope all goes smoothly with your DD! Just think next Monday - a few days from now there will be a beautiful new life in the world!

As for you WELCOME BACK!- always know there is a place to get unconditional support!

Glad your back!
