I have some sort of a year. I am actually heavier than I was last year, I didn't think it was possible. So I am back on WW (I rejoined March 20). So far I have lost 6.2 lbs.
I am trying to ease back into running. I have started by going on the elliptical trainer. I can comfortably go on the elliptical for 30-45 minutes, and my heart rate doesn't get too high. When I get my tax refund I am going to buy a good pair of running shoes and get outside 9especially now the weather is getting nicer).
The hardest part for me is the emotional eating. When I am sick (which is still about every 5-9 days) I throw a pity party and eat everything in sight. I am trying to consciously stop this behaviour, but it is not as easy as it sounds. Last week I had a sinus headache for 4 days, and when I weighed in this week I was up 2.2 lbs. Not only did I eat, but I didn't exercise because I "was sick". I have started forcing myself to work out when I am feeling tired or a little blah because I figure if I am going to feel blah all day, I might as well have gotten a workout in as well.
I have an ultrasound scheduled for next week to determine if I have a fatty liver. My blood pressure is high. I am not just trying to lose weight to fit into my clothes now, I am doing it to live to see my child graduate from High School.
