Journal de Densible, 19 juin 08

So today I went to the gym for first time in a week or so....so happy I went. Was measured and lost another inch from my upper arms and my waist. Hips still the same-not surprising as that is where my spare tire is resting. I feel relieved that I did not slip backwards during my lapse....

Like so many here lately, I feel stuck and somewhat hopeless.. I am not giving up though. This will pass. I have to keep my eyes on the prize-is it trite to compare our struggle to that of civil rights? Rhetorical question!

I weigh less now than at any time since I started this journey and have noticed lately that I see myself as fatter and less attractive (is that even possible!). When I look in the mirror I see the fat very clearly and it bothers me. Up to this point I have enjoyed seeing the subtle changes in my body. I think it's like redecorating. Once you paint the walls, the carpet or floors look dirty and old, so they get a redo and then the furniture looks shabby and so on....I just wish I could hire someone, go on vacation and come back to find a new and improved house/body. Unfortunately this is a DIY project and I will just have to roll up my sleeves and tackle it one step at a time.

Very on the spot metaphor with redecorating. Even though one's shoulders and biceps may be getting more defined, it's very easy to focus on the fat hanging around on the triceps.

That is a strikingly accurate metaphor, although I would never mention it to my wife for fear that she would take it as tacit support of her relentless viewing of all shows DYI/home renovation/redecorating.

I agree with you Densible! I go through phases with my body as well. One day, I look in the mirror...and think...hrmmmm, I look pretty good today, my face is thinning out, my mid-drift roll isn't hanging over my jeans as much...but...then there's the other days....when I sit and contemplate getting on the scale, because I am convinced that I had to have gained weight, because I felt so icky and ugly. You know what though...even super models wake up and have those days as well. We can lose the weight...but sometimes changing our own self image takes time. Congrats on loosing yet another inch! You are doing an amazing job!
