Bloating and Swelling
That's the name of the game this week. Irritating but I am not defeated. It does not seem like I have eaten myself into this. But I have not been pristine in my food, either. So I am getting drastic today and hoping for the best. I have to pay attention to the input. I also have something hormonal going on and that always lops pounds on. I still believe I am allergic to my own hormones.
Anyway, I have been wearing my cute Summer dresses in spite of my feeling of largeness. It will pass. The Weed really likes my little summer dresses. I like them too, but this week I feel big. I am going to ignore it. The scale is conspiring against me, too, but I am going to persevere. I know how to do this. Watch the salt, the sugar (cut it out entirely) the portions, the highly processed stuff. Eat less, feel better. I have been doing my gym routine. Muscle weighs more than fat, right? But I want both. More muscle and less weight.
I am happy today with what I have, but just a bit concerned if not significantly scared by the sudden increase. I know, though, if I keep track of what I eat, and I am eating rightly, it will work itself out. It will pass. So I won't allow myself to go into negative thinking that leads to binging, and poor choices.
More will be revealed...standing firm in my resolve.

sounds good and even though we all go through these times again and again - have been there before - it doesn't make it easy does it? - each time is a royal pain - at least I think so.
It would be convenient to get a hormone printout each day - so we knew which way we would be "going" - don't you think?
"I am allergic to my own hormones." I laughed so hard I scared the dog. Meeee Toooo sister.
Resolve is all. It is the whole enchilada. (I had to use a food reference.) Normal sized women have hormone bloat and feel "large." You are now a normal sized woman with a normal problem. I am so proud of you I could spit.
