The last time I was as light as this on tbe IB, well, a bit lighter, was the beginning of August 2016. After my stents a year before I had worked hard to turn my life and health around, I was doing well.
Then my life fell apart, but not at my handa, long story, and I spent the next three years in an even worse chronic stress state, with plenty acute stressors on top. Lots of interventions, counselling, you name it. Of xourse in the mayhem I lost the weight loss plot, though I did try to hang on. Many times, despite doing all I knew was right in terms of diet and exercise/movement/activity, call ot what you will, the weight bounced along gradually getting more, and last year I let go and gave up caring. I gained ten kilos in ten months, which was a shock and I decided I had to stop and get back kn track.
The stress is easing, but not gone, though my attitude and reaction to thw triggers has improved no end. I try and take time every day to spend guilt free relaxing time on my own. After all, if I am unwell I function less well for those around me who need me. A difficult lesson to learn when one is needed all the time. ... when is there space and time, especially guilt frew. The main contributor to very alow weight loss was not what I put in my mouth, nor how I moved, but the effects of cortisol, the major atress hormone.
So I tried again recently to push even hardr for myself. Working for my Self is not Selfish. Guess what, it has paid off in droves. I still get as much done, and more easily, but I have had my ME fix. I feel so much better in every way.
Sure, I still have a loooong way to go, but I am beginning to see the light at the end of the long, curved tunnel.
So for anyone reading this, take heart, don't fight and struggle, relax and let it flow. Easier said than done. But so worth it.
