despite making some goals on board I`m not moving forward to achieve them...My week has started on a wrong note and I have just been making one bad choice after another...No excuses because in the end I`m the one who makes the choices but I am bum out right now and hoping that sharing will actually make me wake up and do the right thing....
On another note, the results came in with all of my daughter`s test and nothing was found but because she is still losing major sleep from getting up so often during the night her GP is sending her to a urologist out of town...We are waiting for the appointment to be made...G

First, I have been wondering how your daughter was doing but with something like that you kinda hate to ask. But since you volunteered, I guess no news is good news, At least it's not something horrible and obvious. I sure hope they get it taken care of soon. Is she getting any more sleep than she was?
Now, as far as you are concerned, sometimes our lives get bogged down in other things and weight loss isn't the priority. Just try not to lose ground.
But do get moving when you can. It's good for the heart, good for the soul and good for you.
We can do this!

Well, the important thing to remember is NOT to give up. I know that sounds cliche, but when I start feeling down about things (I know this has to be hard for you worrying about your daughter and all) I remember mySELF and how far I've already come and I ask myself if I really think it would be worth it to 'sabotage' all of that. And the answer is usually no. Because if I get out of control again and mess up everything I've already achieved, I'm going to feel a whole lot worse than what I'm feeling now. I'll feel like I've failed myself, let myself down. And I know for a fact that I never want to feel that way again. I've felt it too many times in my life and feeling that way about myself is something I don't care to go back through.
Everyone gets down sometimes, it's perfectly normal. And everyone makes bad choices now and then, that's normal too. If we DIDN'T do these things, we wouldn't be human. But you've got to remember that it's important to treat yourself good. And to remember how good you felt when you were in control. I can't think of a better feeling. And if you're like me, I know you wouldn't want to give that up.
I really do hope they find out what's going on with your daughter soon. And they will. It just takes time. Some things are easier explained than others. I've known people that have gone through weeks or even months of testing before finding out exactly what was going on. But they DO find it eventually. I know this puts a lot of stress on you. If it were my son I know that I'd feel the same way. But being strong for yourself will help you to be strong for your daughter. That strength has to come from you first in order to be passed onto her :)
One day at a time, hon. Don't stress over the food situation when you've got so much else to think about. I think if you stop... step back... take a deep breath... think... and then proceed, you'll do just fine. Because the better you feel about YOU, the easier it will be handling everything else.
