Sometimes it really helps put things in perspective when we take a moment to reflect on all the great things we have! I loved this journal! With a positive attitude all things are achievable! 

Hi Paula, seems I have missed a lot, you were a busy girl yesterday. I am so sorry you are struggling like this, you of all people do not deserve it (but which of us does). I hear you on being tired of thinking about this, I so hear you. Good luck on your new venture. You do have much to be grateful for, as do all of us, but sometimes that doesn't help, the little girl in us is frustrated and wants to pout, kick and scream. I know you will figure it out, if it can be figured out, Paula will do.  

Thanks Lindsay, and Issy - One thing I have figured out.. is it does me zero good to sit still and wallow in it. Can't be any harm in trying a different low carb approach... and if eating unlimited veggies is the worst of my problems, well, it's not a problem to be concerned with. No matter what happens, my body will stabilize, and I will continue to work w/ it to move it in the right direction. Life is full of opportunities to open our eyes. Did I inadvertently get lax? Did I consume hidden carbs - like in vitamins, or something, that has shut down my fat burning?? I don't know, but I like what this guy has to say. So I am basically starting over. I will add back in certain things, within time, but for right now, I am eating only whole foods, clean, healthy natural, etc.. and I will eat when I am hungry, and not eat when I am not hungry. Don't care if it's alot, or a little, etc. I will only eat according to his lean protein, carbs and healthy fats - and I will see over time what gives! In the end, can't be any worse than what's going on now, now can it? Much Love!!! 

Such a pleasure to read your upbeat post. It helped me get in a happier frame of mind. I too need to be looking st all the pluses in my life. Thanks for the reminder.  

Great Post! A great reminder to Count Our Blessings! It can truly make a difference in our attitude!  

just an update on my actual day today..food and exercise, steps and veggies, etc.. all doing fine. Didn't weigh in this morning, I actually forgot to! Can't even imagine where my head was at, but it wasn't on weightloss...which is a first for me. In quite awhile!!!
