Fear not, Julie, I am here!
Motivation level: 2
Pathetic, isn't it? I've just been having a really crappy couple of days. However, I did get in 35 minutes on the stairclimber yesterday, so that at least is good. Don't think there's going to be much exercising today though, as I need to leave the house in about 20 minutes, and I'm still in my pj's, haven't eaten breakfast.... bleh. I really feel like going shopping, because that always makes me feel better, but the fact that I have no money is part of what is making me feel crappy. I'll probably go buy something cheap anyway and just deal with it. *shrugs*
Going to dinner at my friend's house tonight, but it's my healthy friend, so food will be ok. I hope I don't go crazy with food at some point during the day. I never really thought of myself as an emotional eater, but now I find that when I am feeling down it is junk food that I want--Arby's, Doritos, completely unhealthy food, and lots of it--not because I think it will make me feel better, but just because I want there to be one thing that I don't have to worry about. So then I eat whatever it is and then I feel even worse because I let myself get out of control. It's a viscious cycle.
Michelle--Great job on the riverboat! I probably would have eaten everything in sight!
Lucia--It's good to have you back! Sounds like you've been doing great--keep it up!
Jaymi--They can never manage to make two pieces of the same clothes in exactly the same way... it's infuriating. Sounds like you're getting back on track though--good to hear it!
Julie--Maybe I need to start planning my food better, perhaps I will stop thinking about it so much. I doubt it, I will just keep thinking, "oooh, I get to have rice cakes at 1:00, and then some soup at 4:00...." That might be even worse. At least with no planning, there is at least an element of surprise.
Anyway, I'll be back this evening to let you all know how my day turns out. Have a great day, chickies.
