I've been thinking that I am going to gain tomorrow all week long.
I've been sick and instead of having a "skinny" response and not being able to eat... I crave food. Stomach pangs would wake me up at 2 am or 4 am and only eating something like toast or crackers would help. I've been thinking that I have the stomach virus but the pharmacist at CVS told me that she thought may have an ulcer. Oh God! Doesn't she know that I'm a hypochondriac? Doesn't she know that 3 days ago my doctor said that the cartilage in my left knee is minimal? I'm only 31!!!!!!! Now I may an ulcer. I think she's bogus. The ask a nurse lady told me not to jump to conclusions. I have a doctor's appt later this week. I feel like my body is falling apart and that my bad habits led me to being overweight and now I have the knees of an 80 year old. Can't my body tell that I've been being good, that I've been really trying .....can I not turn back the hands of time on my body clock? I took the Real Age quiz thing a couple months ago and they said I was like 47 but that if developed healthy habits I could be young again. Are those realage.com people liars???????
Maybe I should just go under my covers and eat pizza. Ok that's dramatic. (**Slapping myself in the face**)
Back to my original question, can negative thoughts make me fatter? This morning I was clearly in a negative space at my training session and told my trainer that I knew I was going to gain weight. This was after I was whining about having to do the treadmill at an 8.0 incline and complaining about the CVS pharmacist. (Side bar: I hate the treadmill (oh yeah my doctor also told me have plantar fasciitis in both feet, possible heel spurs and something about the bone in my left heel. I had stopped listening at that point. ).
Back again to those negative thoughts. My trainer said that negative thinking produces hormones that can contribute to weight gain??? What?? I never heard that?? I know you have to be positive to stay motivated but wait does your body actually keep you fat if you're thinking negative??? Is that true??

Thought provoking questions...
What's that research about stress and belly fat? Is it cortisol? I forget...
In any case, sending you good thoughts for the upcoming doctor's visit + whatever followup it entails.
Be encouraged girl!
