Losing Those Pandemic Pounds
I somehow got the guts being on the scales previous month and also found I’d gained 23 pounds during the pandemic.
Is this what they mean by middle-aged spread? I felt like a slug. Deep sigh. It was like that humorous poem, “When what to my wondering eyes must appear, but twenty extra fat on hips, thighs, and rear.”
This point is especially hard to share since I had written a book titled, “Ten Secrets to Shedding pounds After 50.”
How Did This Happen to Me?
Several years ago, after caring for my Mom who had Lewy Body Dementia, I packed a lot of fat on. I was horrified to weigh 172 after the death of her. Probably the most I’d considered in the life of mine so far. So, I did a great deal of investigation and experimenting, lost 15 pounds – although admittedly it really is a booger to lose weight as you age, then shared how I did it in this book. I actually managed to keep the weight off… until the pandemic.
I broke the 5-pound rule of mine shared in my book – if I gain five pounds it’s time to lose 5 pounds. Everyone else was stress-eating, indulging, and https://www.javaburn.com (mouse click the next document) (mouse click the next document) drinking wine. Why not me? We had to comfort ourselves somehow, hasn’t it? Following the pandemic was over, I’d shed the pounds once again, I reasoned. All things considered, I knew how exactly to do it.
Clearly, the problems with that kind of thinking would be that COVID stuck around for a great deal longer than I planned. Originally, I told myself that January 1rst I’d begin losing a few pounds. Clearly, 2021 will be a better year with less negative feelings. Then 1 day, I was sitting in front associated with a full length closet door mirror and my reflection stunned me. I had taken a photo, gritted my teeth, and made the decision to deal with the music on the scales.
