Oh no! You've had a run of painful days and now this on top of it. I hope you feel better soon. I'm wishing you a relaxing day with pain that eases up as you go along.

I scheduled an appointment with a new GI dr. So hopefully this one’s better than the last.
I ate pizza for lunch today. Not the greatest choice. Then I came home and ate popcorn, which isn’t so bad. I just had a soft pretzel from the convenience store. I had a frozen fruit bar as well. So overall not TOO bad but we are going to the fair tonight. Not sure what I’ll end up eating bc I’m not sure what kind of food is offered there. Nothing good I’m sure, I mean it’s a fair, but maybe I can find a hot dog. Hot dogs aren’t awful calories wise. I worked out again today. Another 30 minutes on the bike. That was to offset the fair food lol. Yesterday I wasn’t feeling well so I didn’t work out, but I didn’t eat much either so I guess it’s ok. No workouts this weekend, I can only go when my son is still at camp. __________________ Of course it is happening inside your head.

A Warm Hello to ALL!
I enjoy reading this thread. I did adhere to my goals yesterday and, so far, today. It's very hot out and I am craving ice cream, big time. I will resist!!

Nice work WC! Your body thanks you.
I keep fudgsicles in my freezer for the very same craving. They are low in sugar and calories, but make me feel like I'm eating ice cream. |

I have a healthy eating plan that I put a lot of thought into yet I’ve failed to implement it. I workout yet I’m not consistent. I hope to change that starting Monday. My life coach helped me set goals and is going to keep me accountable with daily check ins. I need to lose weight that years of psychotropics has put on but otherwise, physically, I am healthy.

Honestly I need to be rich so I can have a chef make me healthy delicious food. A trainer to help me workout around my chronic pain issues , so maybe more a physical Therapist?
I love cleaning so I don’t need a maid. I dream of this often ! LOL __________________ Helping others gets me out of my own head ~ |

yesterday I had my shower, and it was so painfull (to the point where it took me like 50 minits to recover from it)
I was in pain for much of yesterday, today's a bit better- but I didn't get any sleep last night because of my back (ugg) and it's killing me- the back, that is. not that I didn't get any sleep (I'm used to that one). |

I'm taking the day off from training and monitoring my eating today. We are going to a family gathering and I plan to just focus on having fun playing with my kids and their cousins. We plan to eat out and I'll keep it as healthy as possible, but I am not going to worry about the calories. Cheat day!

i hope everyone has had a good weekend!
A lazy day for me today. I go in and out of feeling deeply demoralized. Today, had to have a small amount of interaction with H and I'd felt...and am feeling... quite ill. The whole mess is toxic to me. I was withdrawn enough to not care about eating, which is not my goal. Neither extreme is my goal. Tomorrow is a brand new day!

I hope focusing on your family has been FUN and rewarding in every way!!!! I believe: Children know if parents are fully present or not; they usually respond in a very positive manner when they feel parents are truly with them! On the other hand, parents have a greater chance at deeply enJOYing time with their children if they do carve out time to give 100% to their children. EnJOY your cheat day!!! __________________ May we each fully claim the courage to live from our hearts, to allow Love, Faith and Hope to enLighten our paths. |

I could use a cook and a trainer, too. I don't mind cooking, when I am not in pain. However, I am in pain a lot. A trainer? So hard to believe I was such a formidable athlete at one time in my life! At the time, that was my whole reason for living! Lol! I had used exercise and weight training as a coping method for all of the stress and tragedy. I need a trainer, or a strengthening and conditioning coach, to help get me stronger and to regain stamina. I need to focus on my intentions and my goals. Now!

I finally got my scale from my mom’s. I’m two pounds lighter than I thought I was so that’s good I guess. Still too heavy though. Have twenty pounds to go to get to my first goal. I actually didn’t do so bad yesterday despite getting a really calorie heavy breakfast. Dunkin’ Donuts gave me the wrong coffee. Usually I get skim milk and Splenda but they gave me cream and sugar. That’s 200 calories while skim milk and Splenda is only 50. I drank it anyway since I paid for it. I ate a small lunch and even though we went out for dinner it wasn’t that calorie heavy surprisingly enough. So I only went over calories slightly.
Today I am still on track to stay under calories. Tomorrow I plan to go to the gym. So hopefully I’ll start this week off right! __________________ Of course it is happening inside your head.

I didn't work out for the past two days. I did a ton of housework this morning and then forced myself to do my circuit training even though Inwas already tired. It was worth it. I feel so much better now.
My eating has been steady. I've stayed within my limits ever since I started counting. I have most of the dinners for this week planned out already, so it should be easy to stay on track. Hugs and well wishes to everyone here. Let's make it a good week! |

I was doing great with exercise and my eating plan up until this evening. Hubby was with me today (he took the day off), but then he went out with his friend for dinner, leaving me home alone. Yesterday one of his work colleagues came over to work on a project with him. I'm still not fully recovered from my recent stress. I've done fairly well, but having my psychiatrist away for so long is a bit of a deprivation for me. My psychiatrist is a more significant part of my support system than anyone else in my life. Even more significant than my therapist. My pet parrot used to be part of that support system, but he's gone.
I have wanted to weigh myself, but haven't because of a digestive track issue I won't go into. Once it passes, I'll get on the scale. I have to look at tonight as a stress eating "blip" that will end tonight. |
