I'm not sure how to explain what brought those strong feelings of sadness on, but I could barely keep from crying during my entire fat class. I think weight loss is a very emotional experience for some people. A lot of regret of past decisions and, perhaps with me, feeling like a failure because of my inability to maintain control of myself.
Monday night was definitely the most depressed I've been in a long time. I even talked to my health coach about it. Apparently, depression and sadness are pretty common reactions to significant weight loss. And, I'm okay now. But, it's obvious that it doesn't matter how much weight you lose, the emotional baggage is still there and it's pretty heavy.
