Nutrisystem #37

Today wraps up my 37th week on Nutrisystem.

 

I didn't lose a dang thing this week, but I didn't gain either so it's all good.

 

I hit a wall these last few weeks.

 

Everyone keeps telling me how inspiring I am and I feel unworthy, since I am having such a difficult time lately.  Winter is always depressing to me and I have been letting it beat me. It's been one thing after another, after another and I let the depression rule over me.  And I admit, I cheated for about a week on my diet...it wasn't like a bingey thing or even super junky food (well, except for a piece or two of chocolate or candy)...it was mostly just eating popcorn (more than the allotted amount) and extra proteins or smart carbs, but I still consider that cheating (since it was more than I should of had).  Rich called me on it and told me to knock it off....LOL...sometimes you just need somebody to give you a swift kick in the pants.

So, yesterday, I decided I wasn't going to let something like this beat me anymore.  I figured if I could lose 30 plus pounds, go to college after 20 years and start a sewing business all within a year, then I could conquer this depression that is weighing me down.

I got up and got dressed and stopped laying around watching tv all day.  I still have a lot of weight to lose and I don't want to give up now.  I love the Nutrisystem community on their site's message boards and facebook as well.  When you are feeling down, need a suggestion, a recipe, praise, encouragement...there is always somebody there to lend an ear or shoulder or a high five.  It's great being a part of a community of people who have been there, done that.  It's just one of the many reasons that I love Nutrisystem....I know I'm not alone in my struggles.  It's kind of funny that I'm bringing this up, because one of their newest commercials features a woman opening a Nutrisystem box with people in there (counselor, community members, nutritionist, etc.)...and that struck me as what the program really is about.  You aren't doing this alone, you have a whole network cheering you on....how can you not love that.
