im such a silly person when it comes to my weight. i havent gained 15 pounds i finally got up the nerve to jump on scales and im at 141 which really is not too bad. 135 is where i need to be. i loved the way i felt when i was low 130's but i had to work really hard and i mean really hard to maintain that. maybe thats too much pressure to put on myself for long term goals. my husband actually said to me he thought i got too thin....so maybe this weight is more realistic to me. just need to increase the exercise adn i am doing that.
thanks to katiemarie and her wonderful kind words i am really going to try and stop giving myself such a hard time. i need to increase exercies and just eat less - not stop like i tend to do but just less. i can do this.
i also need to remind myself how far i have come and how good my life is. there are lots of positives, stop going on about the negatives. yes i have gained weight and my stomach has grown enormously and i feel puffy but i can do this and i will do it slowly and surely.
there is more to life than the way i look - not saying this is not important but i need to refocus on the things that give me joy. my family, my friends and me looking after myself. i need to love myself and look after me regardless of the silly scales.

Aww...now I have the warm fuzzies. Really glad to see you posting again. 6 lbs to your goal weight really isn't that scary now is it? ;)
