Trials and Tribulations of Losing Weight!

Did I mention that losing weight seems to be so difficult??? On one hand, if I just put a little effort into it and live by a few rules consistently, the weight flies off. On the other hand, if I live with reckless abandon (like I always do), I struggle with every pound and sometimes gain weight!!

I am just at a loss (or I wish I was)! We are firmly into 80 degree days and I should be uncovering rather than covering up to hide flab. The other thing I have noticed is that I don't seem to care that a little flab shows. What's up with that? It is as if I have too much going on, in part, to care what someone else sees. This is so dangerous.

The other observation I have made is that I realize now that losing weight is a life long path for me regardless of what I weigh. When I was about 30 pounds lighter, I thought I had beat the weight loss game. But what I didn't realize is that you have to make it your plan for life. It will always be on your mind. It makes sense, why would I think things would change instantly after 35 years????
