Tonight I started feeling depressed and self-doubty about things relating to my recent break up.

What I really wanted to do was binge on anything and everything. My sister brought home a bunch of cupcakes from work.

Then I had a thought.... "I should go to the gym" normally I would have made an excuse like oh it's late I'll go tomorrow. (I go to a 24 hour gym.) But tonight I was like nope I'm going.

So I went... walked for 30 min on the treadmill, used some of the strength training machines, and took advantage of the new massage chairs which were awesome. :P

Came home and I feel loads better about what I was upset about before & I'm feeling so proud that I didn't eat and that now that I'm home I have no desire to.

Now I'm going to treat myself to a face mask.

Like another poster said, I'm worth it. & It's okay to be nice to myself, but being nice to myself doesn't need to mean eating a bunch of junky comfort food. It can mean doing nice things for my body instead.

Very good makebelieve! I too am having men problems... I feeling kind of down. Just going to go to sleep and call it the night. Great job u made a excellent decision to go to the gym. Keep up the good work!

Aw I hope things get better for you. Have a good night!

Thank you.

Woohoo!! Those of us that really enjoy food need to remember how many non-food things are out there that can also make us happy.

Great words of advice!

Good job!

Awesome! Your message is very inspiring to someone like me who goes straight for the cupboards when I'm not feeling happy

WAY TO GO!!

Good for you for finding non-food ways to cope! And exercising instead of food? You go girl!

Good for you! You should be very proud.

Well done!
