Starting over again??!! Yikes.
Yep, I’ve joined the blogging bandwagon. :) Never thought I’d see the day, but I really think I need this. Not that I think my struggles are so very unique or special….I have the same ole struggles that so many do…..I eat to feed my emotions…and I am such a mess of conflicting emotions and hormonal fluctuations! Some days, I just feel so doggone crazy…and, I’m sure Hubby and the DDs would agree wholeheartedly!
I could have named my blog many different things, but I like the idea of a fresh new beginning and building hope for my thin future. I need to figure this out…once and for all! Life is rough. There are always going to be difficult times…..times of sadness, of joy, of boredom, of celebration…etc,etc,etc. There will always be an excuse to eat. So, will I always have an excuse to be fat? 
Saturday, I celebrated my 43rd birthday….it was time to reflect on my life again…time, yet again, to become depressed over my weight gain. Today was my weekly weigh-in. I’ve gained another 4.4 pounds in the last two weeks. On July 14, 2008..what will I be reflecting on? Can I reflect on the loss of 100 pounds and the beginning of my running program?
I’ve been told that journaling my thoughts and feelings will help me to gain control over my emotional eating. So, here I go…starting the journey over again. I’m so very tired, but I refuse to give up. Sometimes, I may ramble…sometimes, I may be downright boring!….but, I’m gonna journal my journey this time…and, I’m gonna re-learn this old dog some new tricks!
