I feel so bad for not writing for a week, I really do. An update on my life is that I stopped taking my meds because I got up to 280+ pounds. I was dieting, excercising, and counting calories and I was still gaining 10+ pounds a week. I would look in the mirror and cry. Sometimes I'd just want to lay in bed all day because nothing I did was good enought o lose weight. Nothing. When I went on dates, my dates would bring up my weight gain. Every single time. I acknowledge that they were assholes but I also acknowledge that something MUST be done before I am 300 pounds. So, I stopped taking my meds about two weeks ago and I've lost weight naturally. I am not much on a diet, but I do watch what I eat. I haven't excercised much because of my knee being sore, but I still managed to lose weight. I do believe the weight might've been water retention or inflammation, but as long as I'm not 280 pounds. The lowest weight I was was 150 pounds and that was fine with me. On another note...
I started reading this book (image attached) and I love it so much. It is about a woman from Saudi Arabia who gained the hearts of many when her (ex) husband broke her face in 13 placess and left her to die. It is a heart breaking story, but her tenacity, strength, and ability to overcome is something to be studied. She is so inspiring! Not only do they talk about the attack, but she also describes in detail about how her first husband left her after having a baby. I could never imagine the pain... Ever. That is the most painful thing a spouse can do. I am only on page 90, so I'm excited to read more about her life, her family, her background, and her triumphs.
