Obsession and checking something off the list!
Have you ever been obsessed with something? To the point where it's all that you think about?
I have. And that's why I had to take a break.
I got so obsessed with what I saw on the scale that it was overtaking my entire life. I would weight every morning. I would look at calendars and try and calculate my progress for the near future. I would obsess over what I was putting in my mouth. At the end of the night I would think about what I ate and try and figure out how much I would lose, or gain...almost to the point where it was too much.
Luckily, this "obsession" didn't affect my outside life, just mentally. I don't think my friends and family realized where I was mentally. I realized that I needed a break to regroup my thoughts and calm down.
And so, with that, I'm back. :)
There's a fine line between knowing where you are in loosing weight and obsessing, and, although it's hard, I'm really trying not to obsess this time. Whatever hap…
