Good morning Athena, Dawn, and Babydoll - I got off focus for a couple days. Mainly Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, but a little bit on Monday also. In fact, yesterday I caught myself eating popcorn, which I would have never done. I understand about wasting a Phen day. I felt the same way on Christmas Day. It's easy to get unfocused when we're caught up in other things in life, like the holiday or kids (young or teenage or adult) or bills, or many many other things. Sometimes I think there is a little fat fairy out there just trying to get our focus off of weight loss. Right now he must be hovering over you all. Okay, I'm a ritard. I don't know why I thought a fat fairy. haha. Anyway, forget that part. Instead of just trying to get back, why don't you all just reply to this post and type out all your troubles. Type out everything you're focusing on rather than your weight. I know you listed some, but there's got to be more. Let it all out. If you are taking on the stress of these things by yourself, then no wonder you're not able to focus. Give some of the stress to us that are willing to listen and help. Losing weight is stressful enough and if you're carrying a lot of other stress, there's not more room for the weight loss stress. Does that make sense? Whatever you are willing to share, share it. It will help, I promise. More than likely, there's a hundred other people going through the same thing.
