Why can't losing weight be as easy as putting it on? If I inhale near a doughnut I gain half a pound! Chloe and I have just marked our second year of TKD, so the weight thing is heavy on my mind. I will be honest, I've only lost 10-12 pounds (mostly in the last six months). I was hoping the activity would kick my body into shape and I would be back where I was when John and I met. Alas, no. This is a struggle for me daily simply because I'm an emotional eater. I get my feelings hurt, I eat. I get angry, I eat. I get bored, I eat. You get the picture. The biggest emotional problem I've been having the past year is the weight won't come off...so, I eat! Hmm. Don't think that helps.
Two of my favorite people joined TKD either with me or just after me. They both lost quite a bit of weight just by doing TKD. Though I was, and am, very proud of both of them I still feel very frustrated. I try to keep the junk out of the house but that goes into other issues. I just wish I could get to the magic number in my head (its only about ten more pounds-not that there is where I want to stop-, but its been eluding me for awhile). If only the weight would go away as easily as it comes on. I keep trying to focus on the positive: I've lost six-inches off my stomach and six-inches off my bust. I guess that is some progress.
