Re: the weight gain, I kind of miss the LBS diet! Yes, yes, yes, I know it was very unhealthy. I was scared to get a cold because I thought it could easily spiral into pneumonia. But damn if I didn't look good! Plus I could eat whatever I wanted and not gain an ounce. I never lost my appetite so I was eating burgers and potatoes and chocolate shakes. Now I've gained 12 pounds in the past two months! Ack! And I feel fat and ugly which makes me sad which just makes me want to eat more. Grrr.
LOL I hear ya Pearl... that was one silver lining in this whole mess! I was joking with a good friend of mine the other day who is struggling with her weight... "hey, all you have to do is find some man to cheat on you and abandon you and it will all melt away!" We had a good chuckle about that. It is good that I am getting to the point that I can laugh about those things.
I do miss being able to eat anything I want. That was kind fun!
How is your ankle doing Pearl? Are you able to start walking/running again?
Try belly dancing... or some form of dance. It is a good work out, especially when you practice every day. The extra bonus is that it is fun, and also helps you tap into your feminine/sensual side which I think we need after we have been through rejection/abandonment experiences.
