Hello everyone....Today has been a very long day. I am a bit sad, as tomorrow is the anniversary of my dad's passing. Work is slow, so I have too much time to sit and think about it. Thank goodness there is only an hour left and then I can go home. In my sadness, I had a moment of weakness and ate an entire snack size bag of microwave popcorn. ARGH! It sure tasted good. I'm hoping tomorrow at work is busy and I can keep my mind off of things. I'll probably be here a lot, reading and posting.
i don't know how you must feel (haven't lost a parent yet) but i can imagine. Don't beat yourself up too bad and hang in there. Sending you good thoughts and hugs your way. hang in there
Hi Jenny - I know how sad life sometimes seems. But it isnīt a desaster to eat that popcorn, you know. Maybe you could go and buy a magazine you like for today to help you get distracted or maybe do some kind of workout like walking during lunchbreak. Donīt feel so sad
Thanks everyone for your words and thoughts. I made it through yesterday, which oddly enough was worse than today (so far!). I gave myself sometime last night to cry and be sad. Then got my butt on the treadmill! I planned my lunch and snacks today, so I wouldn't be tempted to snack when I feel sad. Altho that box of popcorn is still just sitting there. It might have to go in a drawer! I'm so greatful for these boards. It's nice to find a common ground where you can talk to people and not feel silly or embarrassed. Tomorrow is weigh in day, so I am focusing on that. Thanks again....
