The first step of my weight loss journey.
Mon Sep 23, 2002
I have over 125lb to lose and because of being unable to do exercise it's hard to lose weight. I can't ride my bike anymore or go for brisk walks to burn off the calories.
I lost a bit of weight a few years ago before the MS (from 11 stone 6lb/160lb to 8 stone 2lb/114lb) and then put it all plus a lot more back on. I then got a bit ill and exercise became pretty impossible (to find out later was the MS) and so I'm finding it hard to lose the weight.
It seems like a vicious circle, can't lose weight, feel depressed, so eat somethings to make me feel better. So then back to feeling depressed again because of my weight.
I feel a bit of a failure!

I got weighed and was 17st 8lb/246lb, so what did I do, go and have some treacle sponge pudding as a treat, pleaed that I'd lost a couple of pounds!
I feel a bit of a failure! And the more you say to yourself 'I don't want that sponge pudding and custard' the more you think about it and the more you want it. Tomorrow I'm going to just have a salad instead to try and make up for today.
Many tv programmes etc say about reducing hunger pangs and not being hungry, fill up on salad, they say. The problem is not hunger though, it's boredom.
A healthy salad or whatever, just doesn't compare to a bar of chocolate or piece of cake, does it...
I was feeling pleased last week

I've been having problems with my sight for the past week. It's a problem people sometimes get with MS and temporary.
The doctor came to visit me yesterday, he said he's getting in touch with the neurologist to ask his opinion.
I got weighed a few days ago, I weighed in at 17st 6lb (248lb) and had lost 2lb from last time, but now I may be given steroids and so could put some weight on. Oh well, can't be any worse than I have been feeling, seeing 2 of everything. Page One for the first step of my weight loss journey.
