Today feels very surreal. There are multiple reasons I could be feeling this way: 1- this past week I came down with a case of sinusitis (it sounds fake to me too, but the sore throat and exhaustion were very real), which put me out of commission for a few days. 2- With the aforementioned sinusitis, I was closed up in my apartment sleeping for the past few days and finally ventured out for groceries only this morning. 3- The weather is taking a notable shift towards what could be classified as fall weather, which seemingly came out of nowhere. 4- I just had a latte after abstaining for 5 days and have a major caffeine buzz going.
My feeling odd is probably a combination of the reasons listed above, but I will shuffle on and attempt to get back into tasks that keep me a little more grounded. I will note that even though I was drinking a number of liquids and having lots of soup, I still reduced my gravitational pull to the earth by two more pounds this week, making my total loss now 16 pounds in about 6 weeks. I’m still on track and still losing at a healthy pace. I still feel like I am hardly losing at all and I’m going at a snail’s pace, but I just keep reminding myself that if I am able to keep it up at this rate – my loss will be over 100lbs in a year. If I make it somewhat close to this rate, I will be very happy. I know that it will take a long time and a lot of work to become my ideal size and shape, so it is nice to have small successes along the way. Now if only I could start actually seeing progress and start feeling normal again. One day at a time, I guess.
