"Weigh In"
#1152
Well, I'm back from the quilt retreat. I got 4 tops put together plus 5 blocks made for a BOM I'm in. I am not weighing in until Friday now. I'm afraid! We eat good at that retreat! Didn't get out and walk as much as I had imagined either, nicer to stay in jams and sew all day. So I will have to hit my treadmill this week and hope I haven't done too much damage. Glad to be home.

I don't know if this counts. When I am stressed I don't eat healthy, as I meantioned before I lived on bread and butter for months and gained all this weight. For the first 5 weeks into my diet I was eating REALLY healthy. The past week I have been in a deep depression. When depression hits I don't eat at all or very little. I lost a nice amount of weight this week but does it count?????????? It is not like I exercised or watched what I ate I was lucky to get out of bed and go to the bathroom, then I would grab a yogurt or a piece of cheese. I didn't lose it by being good I lost it by being sad. So what is your opinion, does the weight lose count????????

Pats8 sounds like you had a good and productive quilt retreat. You can get back on your treadmill and healthy eating again--every once in a while your have to just have fun. Real life happens soon enough.
Tru what are we going to do with you? I'm starting to worry-please start adding some fruit and protein when you eat. Depression leading to bad eating just increases your depression because you're missing vital nutrients. Like Alu said, the weight loss is good and you won't gain it all back just adding some healthy things. Please!?!
Hope everyone else is doing well (I'm not)-got my fq ready to mail LOL.

Here is a picture of the top I made from our class Christmas exchange. I still have to do borders though. Hope it comes through right. Also a close up of the sashing, it's different.
