Hey there! I've managed to drop another 2 pounds, making it a total of 12 pounds. I'm surprised I lost those last 2 pounds. We were on vacation the past 1 1/2 weeks and we didn't eat the best of foods. We had several days where we ate out and I thought I would destroy any progress that I made, but I'm finding out that I have started eating smaller portions and not pigging out like I have done in the past

I have to tell you that this has been so incredibly hard for me. Not only am I trying to lose weight and look and feel better but I have also been dealing with some personal issues and all of it can be so overwhelming at times. Sometimes I just don't feel like dealing with it anymore and I just want to give up. Just quit! I'm hanging in there for now though.

I am 42 years old now and losing weight at this age is so much more difficult. I've also had a complete hysterectomy and I'm starting to wonder if the stuff they say about gaining weight and not being able to lose it after this surgery is true. I've always heard that is was but always just thought it was a bunch of crap..lol. All I know is it is sooooo hard! For those of you that are quite a bit younger, make sure you deal with your weight issues now! Don't wait. Get it under control, because the older you get the harder it is!

I hope everyone is having a good week!
