Learning to be positive

May 8, 2008

I saw my dietician today. I’ve been seeing him for 1 1/2 years i think… maybe 2. i can’t remember.

Anyway, he’s an inspiring person and always manages to make me feel better about myself and my (often) weight gains. He puts everything into perspective.

Today we chatted about my recent health problems and he was impressed that in spite of it all, I had managed to gain just 2lbs in two months. I was pleasantly surprised that it was so little.

We also chatted about the countless people who have asked me if I’m pregnant, and how that makes me feel.

And we also talked about the people who say to me that maybe weight isnt my biggest problem at the moment. And we both agreed that I’m doing a sterling job of maintaining my weight in SPITE of my health problems, and if i hadn’t been trying to lose weight these last two years, I’d most likely be in size 24 clothes right now, rather than 16’s.

See? he always makes me feel better!
