Thoughts from a diet failure, or * i am such a loser at losing*

Good morning- Today, **** I usually babysit my 2 yr. old on Tuesday,but son in law did not have to work today, so baby is not coming to play with me. I apprecate everyones prayers for me.

I still am having some problems but I am much better and after 4 days of not exercising, I have determined that I will do something today even if it is only 15 or 20 minutes.

I started the study on my SS lesson it is taken from Genesis, 22nd chapter, and my personal reading is in Daniel 8th chapter.

It is time for me to start moving things around and getting decorations out and up. This is a very nostalgic time for me. I always made a big deal about decorating with my children when they were small. We would make cookies and then eat them while we decorated.

I need to start planning what I am going to serve on the 23rd. It is our anniversary and we will renew our vows and have a small reception afterward.I am not panning a big deal type thing just some finger food and cake and coffee and soda.


Now about the diet failure. I started having problems with diverticulitus on Friday and I hurt so bad I could not straighten up when I stood up. I had to modify how I ate and eat foods that would not irritate the part of my digestive tract. Lots of oatmeal and soft foods. Needless to ssay I did not eat foods that were diet friendly and I did not exercise. FROM FRIDAY MORNING TO THIS MORNING I GAINED 5 POUNDS!!!!!!!!!!!!

i AM SO HOPING THAT IT IS JUST BULK FROM THE DIFFERENT WAY OF EATING - SEE BEfore I got sick ( sorry about all the caps, some of them was diliberate but the rest was oopsi) I was eating low carb which probably was part of the problem about the diverticulitus. And then when tummy started hurting I had to change the way I was eating and I have heard that when you go from low carb to regular eating you will gain some weight.

Anyway I think I will stay away from the low carb diet. All that meat and eggs and such a little bit of vegetables and fruits probably added to my problem. BAck to eating veggies and fuits. If I do not lose a pile of weight then at least I will be healthy and I feel better when I eat veggies and fruit.

Ok I've prattled enough.
Have a good day everyone


Thanks
love you all
God bless
