I'm sure you have all heard the old saying, "be careful what you wish for," right? Its not as funny as, why don't you take a long walk off of a short peer" or as prosaic as "that's as useless as tits on a boar hog" but it is more true then i could have ever imagined. One funny thing about life is the longer you live the more things start to make sense.
I have spent a large portion of my life wishing I weighed less and now I am fighting to stop myself from loosing weight, ironic. Funny thing is a year ago I would have scoffed at the whole concept of someone being upset they were loosing weight, oh how quickly things change. In the past few weeks I have welcomed a blender into my life, started drinking ensure, and begun trying to eat new higher calorie foods. This all to stop my weight loss!?!? This has brought some limited success (ice cream sundae), along with some stark reminders as to why I don't eat certain foods (no rice or beans).
Unfortunately as I cut back on the Prednisone the more calories my body will consume., thus forcing me to try and eat more! To think I used to wish for this (total weight loss 94 lbs)!
Lesson: Be happy with who you are and how you look because life is to short to waste time wishing you were different in some minor way.
