You'd think that as amazing as I felt all morning that when my migraine hit me like a mag truck in the afternoon that i would have been able to hang in there and plow through. Yeah right. This is the new me talking with the old me slowly dying inside and still looking for a way back in. All she needs right now is a crack in the facade to squirm her big a*s through and grab hold.
Yeah, it sucks. And no, I didn't stay strong yesterday. My facade cracked and now I'm trying really hard to not let it beat me today. Old me squirmed her way in like rat after the cheese. I quit counting points yesterday before lunch. I started eating and eating and eating. Thankfully the new me did punch the lights out of the old me by dinner time because although the old me convinced hubby to go get pizza for dinner; the new me said "but get me a salad too". I ate said salad and only had 2 slices of pizza. I didn't eat any more as I was full. I did however have 3 starbucks total yesterday and even though they are the nonfat 3pt latte's they add up. It just all in all... was a depressing afternoon/evening. How the heck am I suppose to seriously stay functioning and in this new lifestyle when i become debilitated with a migraine? And then what if I get sick. I don't know.
I'm addicted to weighing myself and this week... egad! The scale has not moved down it says I've gained. I can tell I'm bloated and have water gain because my wedding ring is again tight. Weigh in is in 2 days and I don't know how to correct this situation. I'm afraid. Afraid of what... Afraid that last months success was just a fluke, that see... i really can't do this? I don't know. So far my obsession with the scale has not been a mental issue yet, and this week... it is now officially being an issue. I looked over this weeks food journal and I've been relying not only on AP points (which is normal) I've also been relying on FP points. Which I've never done before on a daily basis. Usually i only use maybe 5-8 of them for a whole week. Flip side is, I've been awarded with more AP points this week already than in 1 week since starting this journey. So..,
I'm done whining. Does anyone have any healthy natural ideas for getting rid of some water gain? I don't want pills and except for upping my water intake... i have no idea what i can do... any suggestions? Any at all?
Always,
Jules
PS Today I will be focusing on getting my mental attitude back in line so i can kick some A*S

Drink water, drink water, drink water. As the water content of your arteries rise, salt can follow to be filtered/excreted by your kidneys. When you have water weight, drink water! You can slow down a few hours before weigh in though, let your bladder catch up with you. ; )
