madaboutmoose's Journal, 08 July 2012

Well I have not done so well. UGH. I actually did log my breakfast this morning. I MUST get back on track. I have a trip to California planned for October with my mom to see my aunts and I want to have more clothes to wear than I do now.

I have been sitting on this dang computer all morning in my exercise clothes and I need to exercise.

Besides being very busy at work my husband may have some additional health issues. We've both been stressed about that.

I have been feeling sorry for myself. Struggling with the blues ... "is this all there it" ... sort of thoughts. Feeling very unhappy with life in general.

I know. Where is the "positive" "be kind to yourself" Moose that we all loved??? I don't know where she is. She is lost under about 30 lbs of fat I think.

So this is what you get. Grumpy, frumpy, discouraged, and lazy moose. Sorry buddies ... if you are still here.

Despite REALLY not wanting to exercise I just finished my Pilates DVD. Once I started, even though I wanted to stop, I kind of get obsessive and simply kept going. Oh dear. If I stay on track for a few days I know I'm going to begin to feel better. I think I can, I think I can, I think I can.

Of course we are still here. I will always be here for you my friend. I am so very happy to see you here and you know Carol as you say this to shall pass and before you know it you will be feeling more like yourself again. We have all been there. I am still partially there, just trying to dig out day by day, step by step, not expecting big, just expecting a daily change in what I do and how I feel. Most are small but I know before we know it they will be big again. Lets keep at it. We can and will do it! We have nothing to lose and everything to gain. I know that sounds backwards but it's true. What we will feel in our attitude and well being is far more important than anything else. Anything else including weight loss is bonus. I'm going for it! Are you joining me?

Yes Cathy. I am joining you. I wish I could write exactly how I feel here but it feels much too personal. And, I fear I'd scare people to death!! LOL!!! It is in these difficult times there is the most opportunity for growth. I know that. I just don't like it much. I am going to get through today counting my calories and being as good as I can to myself. I am. I am. I am.

must be a late spring/early summer funk...because I am in it too. Determined to dig out, I have taken to literally "running" from my problems. At least on the treadmill. One day I'll have great legs and my current problems will be somewhere behind me on that fake track, but until then...we just keep swimming....just keep swimming

and we all stare at that really dark stuff at 3 in the morning while waiting for the morning to come. At least sometimes....

The roller coaster ride that we call life has some very deep dips. Take heart from the fact that so long as you hang on it does go up again. Don't keep looking at that dark pit at the bottom, cast your eyes up to the blue sky above and you will get there.

Thanks dear ones. This is why I'm supposed to be here. It is easier with others than it is alone.

Good Morning Carol! Just wanted to say hi in case I don't get back for the new journal I just know you are going to write. I didn't log my food yesterday but I didn't overeat. I hope you have a great day and I am happy you are here. I know you will feel better that you are. Let's face it. We never really enjoy doing anything that is good for us. lol Flax is right let's be looking up to that big blue beautiful sky!

Hi Carol, glad to see you back on here. I have missed you. Sorry your husband has other health issues. Life is not easy is it? And it doesn't seem to get any easier. Sigh. Hope today is a good day.
