I haven't officially weighed in here in awhile (but have been keeping track on my phone app). While it appears that I have lost weight (from last weight on here), I'm actually up.

I did not do well over the Thanksgiving Day Holiday - I exercised my butt off, but also ate like never before (actually had cookies for breakfast two days!!). My will power is pretty weak and something I need to work on. (Only reason I do well at home is because I don't allow myself to have those things around my house.)

Exercising is also becoming frustrating - at home I walk on a treadmill that is at an incline. I kept reading articles about how doing short bursts will increase fat burn, so I added in jogging for one minute after every 5 minutes (still at an incline). This was fine, but I wanted to see quicker results so I decided that I would try to jog (no incline) for 5 minutes, walk with incline 5 minutes and alternate until able to jog longer. My knees did not like that. The walking is good, but it just doesn't do anything for me (hopefully that makes sense). I have good music to listen to, but I just don't feel like I accomplished anything with walking (whereas jogging or using the elliptical (over Thanksgiving) made me feel like I'd done something).

I also have not been able to get my butt out of bed early enough to walk this week (which I'm hoping is just because I got out of that routine over the holiday) and eventually it'll come back. What makes it even worse, is that even though I haven't been getting up early, I still set my alarm for 4 and then just get really crappy sleep for the next ~1.5 hours as I keep hitting the snooze button. Argh - I know it's frustrating (if I had someone sleeping with me - they would've killed me by now!!)

Which brings me to a problem of mine that I identified - I'm depressed and part of my depression I feel is due to loneliness, so I think ok, I'm gonna get out "there" and date, but then I think who would want date me?? I'm fat, ugly, depressed, and I'm betting prety high-maintenance - what a great combo!!?? (the guys just line up!!) So then it's like why even go out and try. (and there completes the circle) More profoundly (is that a word??) I've found that I feel that I am not really worthy of someone loving me - I haven't yet figured out why I feel that way. You know, I love those girly movies where the guy brings her flowers for no special occasion, or leaves a cute little note before going to work, etc - and I want that, but I don't feel worthy of it (no clue why???). Can I really have such bad self-esteem that I've now taking it for fact??
