Not sure what's going on with my weight. I've eaten really badly the last couple of days and somehow lost two pounds. Might be the steroids I'm on for the migraine I've had for the last six days are causing it, although steroids usually make me gain weight, not lose.
Regardless, I'm feeling very happy. Not just about the weight loss, but about how I'm keeping up with this huge project at work, which I have less than three weeks to complete. And things are really good at home. Is it possible to lose weight out of happiness?
I've been in therapy for a while (read: 15 years), and I've started working on an art therapy project to help me let go of some of the bad things that have happened to me. I'm making simple quilt blocks to represent the major losses and trials I've gone through. I can't explain why, but finishing each block makes me really happy. It's like, okay, I've honored that, I've made a record of it, now I can let it go. Each week I take a new block into therapy and we talk about it.
Can emotional letting go lead to physical letting go? It's an interesting idea.
UPDATE: My boyfriend thinks I'm losing so fast because I've started eating every four or five hours. I used to be terrible about going for ten or twelve hours at a time without food. Now I'm eating really regularly.
