I've had an emotional weekend as I'm letting go of a relationship that I thought had a great future. Sadly, I can't keep someone from sabataging the happiness of both of us. Now I have to focus on taking care of myself and moving forward.
I've decided to approach this weight loss a bit differently. Previously I tracked everything I put in my mouth. But I tend to look for a distraction in times of stress, then when the stress is gone I no longer need a distraction. I don't want to create a distraction of calorie counting, only to drop it. I'm also a bit emotionally fragile at the moment, and I don't need the burden of failure when I eat a meal that is difficult to track. So I'm going to practice listening to myself and my body. When I reached my goal previously, I was able to maintain my weight within 5 lbs for quite sometime without calorie counting or weighing daily. I started this weekend, and I'm down 4.5 lbs. I do know that is mostly water, but I retain a lot of fluid when I make bad food choices, so even losing water weight is a victory.
My plan is to make good food choices, eat a little less of it, and only weigh once a week. I'm also walking several times a week as an antidepressant. Here's hoping for better physical and emotional health.

I don't mean to sound flippant but relationships coming go your health and well being should always be primary concern you have a community here that always has your back

Blkbear, it didn't sound flippant at all. Sometimes I'm stronger than other times. I always know in my head that no relationship is worth long my self - health or happiness. But this snuck up on me, and sometimes it's hard to convince the heart. Mostly I'm so lonely. I let friendships go, and now there's a lot of empty time and space. :/
I appreciate the kind words from all of you. And I'd rather have tough love from my supporters, than just what I want to hear. Thank you, all.

Hang in there, love. Do this for yourself. Be proud of yourself, it's so easy to keep a relationship just bc you are afraid of being alone. Use this time to find yourself and feel how beautiful you are. Be your best friend now.

I agree 100% with Redgirl. Also, remember when a door closes it allows others to open.

I have toyed with the idea of intermittent fasting, and read a few,articles. I'll definitely look up the YouTube video.
I don't know that I have my head on straight, but my heart is weary of being tied in knots. At the same time, I'm terribly lonely. :( All prayers are appreciated.
