Seems so much harder than last year...was 144lbs this time last year. Not gonna make the 140lbs this year since I am due to start drinking again in 3-4 weeks on a motorcycle trip to California.
"Harder than last year" I would just like to dwell on this for a bit since it reminds me about a saying that one of the old timers at the swimming pool said "Growing old is not for the feint of heart". What this means to me is that growing old is a battle...a life long fight to the bitter end between you and and the effects of aging on your body. More simply put its a battle with yourself.
With this in mind, I have also been fighting another lifelong battle with myself when it comes to my weight. I think the the hardest part for me to accept about this is that like my aging it will be and has been a lifelong quest...no relief from events like "my diet is over I can just eat normally again"...no reintegration into what society/culture sells as normal...no days without hunger.
Maybe realizing that true change is a permanent thing is the first step to getting off the merry-go-round.
