I really appreciate that about you. God knows I'm not even close to succeeding, but you keep encouraging me. I am actually glad to hear that you get frustrated some times.It's only normal. I am frustrated and I have only lost 4 pounds with many more to go. You are one of the ones I look up to, so give yourself a break, have a pity day and then you will feel better tomorrow. I was so like this last week. Thank God I was tweeting with Amber and she really got me back to feeling better. I swear I thought something must be wrong with me. I felt sad, teary, moody and was having crazy thoughts about things. Guess what? the next week I got my period. My whole mood went back to normal. I swear there was a time i didn't believe how much hormones can wreak havoc on your whole body and mood, but I sure do now. Plus I, like you, am perimenapousal. I wish it would just happen already. I'm sick f it all. So chalk it up to the lack of sleep and the hormones....and you know me...I would recommend a glass or two of wine or whatever you like. Relax, watch TV, sip your drink and I bet you will sleep like a baby! Hugs going out to you!PS. If you live close I would hire you! I could use the help!Pattiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14233014292620441914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050428273619531323.post-4303843607589449422011-07-19T15:11:36.364-07:002011-07-19T15:11:36.364-07:00Hey Rosalie;

My first, second, third takes didn't take. First take went well, but then when I played it back, there was no sound! Second take got pre-empted when the 'baby' started yelling. Third take got pre-empted when the 'big boy' came in and started asking 'what are you doing, mom" and I gave up on the fourth take because I decided this batch has to have chocolate in it. LOL. I will keep you posted!Dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06792676971597382540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050428273619531323.post-19565233378710556782011-07-19T14:02:18.807-07:002011-07-19T14:02:18.807-07:00I've already applied at Kohls - nobody will hi...I've already applied at Kohls - nobody will hire me, except for minimum wage and all nights and weekends and holidays.<br />I'm not gonna do that, I want to be home at night.PurpleRosyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11038204772860553985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050428273619531323.post-38340389466181363762011-07-19T13:21:33.862-07:002011-07-19T13:21:33.862-07:00I bet your weight is up a bit because you're r...I bet your weight is up a bit because you're retaining water! I get that way hormonally, too, and it's no fun! My sleep is terrible, also. Aren't hormones fun?!?! You may want to research natural progesterone cream. I use emerita from Sprouts and it's helped my PMS. Dr. Christiane Northrup writes about it in her book and says a lot of womens estrogen and progesterone aren't balanced after they've hit mid to late 30's. This causes mood swings, sleep probs, night sweats, etc. Just a suggestion because we girls need to stick together! Keep up the BFC because you've come so far!!!!! Also, I like the above suggestion of working for Kohls! You would get paid and get a discount :)<br />Chin up!<br />CareyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050428273619531323.post-25909215511611540782011-07-19T13:10:10.936-07:002011-07-19T13:10:10.936-07:00Well Rosie, I am the same way.

You are w/i 5 lbs of your goal weight, but below the your goal Size 10. Remember? If you want to any lower, I think you (and myself) have to change things up at this point. It is a different battle that the one we have fought up until this point. But I think you look beautiful & perfect right where you are!<br /><br />I am perimenopausal myself and WTF is up with that?!

The before is a beautiful woman but that is no longer your reality...you are thin now. Embrace it and celebrate it...You have said the before picture makes you feel sad....GET rid of it.... the old way of eating made you "the before picture", why would you want to go back?

Lack of sleep, moods all over the place and extremely slow weight loss. Also, thyroid comes into play when our estrogen decreases. Have you ever had your thyroid levels checked? You are an extremely strong person. Sometimes just knowing that these things can happen, helps in dealing with it. I'm right there with you. I have been doing this "hormone rollercoaster" for about six years now. Keep your chin up Sweetheart, things do get better eventually.<br />"Big Hugs",<br />LindaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
