Eric’s Dream

Well I have been doing well since my last post (which in a moment of despair I deleted soon after it was posted, so don’t even know if any of you saw it). The jist of that post was that I felt as though I hit rock bottom again. I started back to ww 2 weeks ago, and literally cried at what I have done to myself this year. My weight was back to 216 lbs. Therefore, I gained back all of the weight I lost (plus a few lbs) from the year before. OK, so I made it out of my well of self pity and have had a couple of good weeks.

I lost 8.2 lbs last week and another 3.2 this week, so very happy about that. I have in no way been perfect about my eating, and this past week I was actually quite the pig, but I have been very good about exercising, so that is helping.

Rob wanted to by a Wii for our birthdays, so we did, and I have been using that to exercise. We have the Jillian Michaels game, and Wii Fit Plus. Of course, Jillian gives you a very good workout, and the Wii Fit is just fun and challenging in a different kind of way. I guess whatever works, it has helped me to get back into the swing of things. I have exercised every day except one in the past 2 weeks, and crave it once again. Please let this feeling stay around.

I had an accident at work about a month ago and really put my hip/pelvis out of whack so I haven’t been able to do any running, unless I want to walk around for the next couple of days in severe pain. I think the chiro got it figured out, but I am taking it slow getting back into it so as not to aggravate it again.

Well, that is my update. Weight watchers is helping. As I have said before, I do belive I will need ww or something similar for the rest of my life. It is my AA.

Hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving!!!
