Finding your patterns.

weigh in 200.2

So today is a good day. :) I went to Alanon yesterday and therapy. Wich was great. :) Once again my TOM is playing a sick joke on me. lol  I have a pattern of not losing but easily gaining for about 3-5 days after my TOM.  I beleive that time period has begun. yay me... On a serious note.  The improtant thing is that I understand and am aware of this pattern in my body. It can be very discouraging for someone who doesnt realise there patterns.

Our bodies are not linear and they dont pretend to be.  We can do mathematical equations and due to calories vs calories out everything should be linear but, alas it is not.  We have hormones and bodily functions to interfere with that.  For example one of my other patterns is; an up down week.  For example: Lets say Sunday I weighed 201.8. The following day on Monday i weigh 201. Then Tuesday 200.2.  I can most definetly expect to be either 200.2 for a day or two or 201 for a day or two after that. If I have 3 or 4 great days of weightloss. My body likes to even out with some water weight held in for a couple days. (extra or steadfast, it holds)  These patterns can be bother some. The best thing to do is to note them and figure them out the best you can.  Then accept them and keep pushing forward.

Who knows? You could have a weird pattern like my brothers girlfriend. She has a pattern taht for 4-5 days after her TOM.  She can eat like a MAN. She go and scarf and scarf and scarf but, she gains nothing!!!!! Lucky her hahahaha. :) So take a look at your patterns and use them to your advantage.  For me my patterns aren't anything like this one. Although, because i know my patterns i dont feel horrible when i have a 3-5 days stall right after my TOM.


So my advice log your patterns note them and use them to benefit you. :) Wether it be in your Journey to Health or everyday life. It will benefit you to be in tune with yourself. :)

Have a great day! :)
