Update — At Last!
Hi Everyone!
Sorry for dropping out of the picture for so long. I’ve been struggling with one of the worst bouts of depression I’ve had in a long, long time. When most people get depressed, they lose their appetite and lose weight. Me, I want to eat everything in sight. The good news is that I haven’t gained anything. The bad news is that I haven’t lost anything either.
Anyway, after lots of experimenting with various combinations of medications (with the help of my shrink, of course) my mood has perked up a little, so I’m back on the weight loss wagon.
This time I’m eating five small meals a day. Cereal for breakfast, a snack of fresh fruit, a turkey sandwich for lunch, a small bag of pretzels or sunflower seeds in the afternoon, and a low calorie frozen dinner. To appease my sweet tooth, I’ve been buying Nabisco’s 100-calorie packs. Oreos are my favorite.
I’ve also joined Curves and am going three times a week. The other days, I spend ten minutes walking on my treadmill. I’ve lost two pounds in the past week, so I guess I’m on track again. Wish me luck and I’ll keep posting to let you know how I’m doing.
