euphoria fading ?
So a buddy and I were writing back and forth about how the 1st 2 to 3 of weeks of joining the site and dieting were almost a breeze. Lately it feels like the euphoria is fading and she and I are scared we might slip back into our old ways. That is the LAST thing either of us wants. We have both had success in losing weight, even in the short time we’ve been here. Anyone else experience the same thing? If so, did it go away? Any thoughts or advice appreciated.
I’ve been dieting for 7 months and just hit the wall, but im slowly getting back into the groove. Just keep getting back up and you will be fine. Never give up.
I think this is similar to what runners call “the wall”. It is the point where only your determination will get you to where it is a “breeze” again. Stay on track and keep your head up…you’re doing a great job!
Have you thought of trying to join a team in the Weight loss forum? Thats what encorages me to keep going all the members challenging me to keep going.
Hey…WE ARE NOT GOING TO SLIP BACK IN TO OUR OLD WAYS…I REPEAT, WE ARE NOT GOING TO SLIP BACK IN TO OUR OLD WAYS!!!!! WE JUST CANT DO IT…WE’VE COME TO FAR!!! This is probably the same as the feeling you get when you first fall in love…..the excitement somewhat fades over time, and it takes work to keep it kindeled(sp?). Kind of a strange way to look at it-maybe……but maybe that is just it. We are gonna have to work at this and sometimes work real hard! I got your back if you got mine!!!!!
I just saw this. I think we all go thru it. But you have to focus on yourself and what you REALLY want, write it down and hang it up where you can see it. This is hwat helped me. And keep coming here and writing about it, the positive reinforcement makes all the difference. You CAN do this.
