All of the above apply at the moment. Having been 'good' so to speak and staying on the fts wagon, even though it has been so frustrating at times. Not the food, or staying the course, but for the fact my body doesn't want get rid of the excess weight I am still carrying - no matter the tweaks!!!!
Good things come to those that persevere I tell myself. This lifestyle really isn't that much of a hardship. But life has other plans for us at times and while we try to reconcile those factors, the little sneaky carb creepers come sneaking their way in. My job hours have been cut to zero for the next 6 weeks at least; I am so stressed and am not sure whether to wait and see if my hours pick up or I look for more work - I think the more work option has to kick in as -as much as I would like to be independently wealthy and only working for the fun of it, I am not - I need money to live on. My car has its moments and I really can't afford repairs. I need work around the house done. (On the plus side, if I am home and not working I will have time to do some of these overdue jobs.) Family crisis aside - they are hiccups, but nothing too serious (I sincerely hope) at this stage.
It all adds up and it seems I loosen the reigns slightly. Thankfully nothing serious, but still at times I feel like diving head first into the next sugar-laden thing that is presented to me. It really is good that I have limited stuff of 'no no' items at home.
It will all work out the way it is supposed to - this is what I tell myself. Doors close and others open.
I just have to get those proverbial 'big girl panties' on and deal. Thanks for listening.
