my life is like a rollercoaster, baby-baby…..
well, i’m just sittin here being kinda depressed. and i feel stupid because one of the last blogs i wrote was all super positive and now i’m in the dumps again. it makes me not even want to come on here. and then i feel like a hypocrite for giving other people advice while i’m at home eating cookies….yes i was..and worse. i don’t know why it’s always like this for me. up, down, up, down…….let me off-i’m gunna be sick! it’s not all weight-loss related, there’s other stuff going on. and it doesn’t help that i have zero friends at home. wow, i can’t believe i just announced that to the world. but really- what 23yr old girl has NO friends!?! me, i guess:) as for the weight loss/diet/exercise/etc. i feel tired of it. i’v been doing this (consistantly) for 2years now. i know it’s a lifestyle change but sometimes i just get so sick of worrying about fitting in cardio and strength training. or keeping my calories down. i want a day, a week, something, off from it. of course, then i’m afraid i’ll gain it all back. okay so i guess tihs blog just turned into a rambling vent with no purpose……………..

Hey buddy, I totally get where you are comin’ from. It’s okay to feel this way as long as it doesn’t last. And I understand the fear of gain from taking a break, but sometimes I think a break is important to either reward yourself for how far you have come or to shake up your body a bit. I’d tell you to stop being depressed but I know it’s not just that easy. So instead, here is a hug and know that I’m thinking of you!
I am your friend…
take my hand and I will pull you out of the “dumps”!!! I Love you and you are ok…you always brighten my day! Being real is not a hypocrite!!!
Fear is a dark place where negatives are developed…do something fun…and ask yourself…what am I REALLY hungry for!
((((((huuuuuuugggggsssss)))))))
Michael you have come so far on this journey. You are an inspiration to me not only because of your wieghtloss but also because of the support and advice you offer others here on BS.
A few years ago I found myself living in a place where I had no friends and it was a very lonely time. I kept reminding myself that I had great friends all over the country but just not in my town. Hang in there - you can do this!
I know how it is - just remember the down is temporary and the up is LIFE. You will be back to LIFE as you know it - If you ever need someone who understands - I am here for you - you can see the rollercoasterness of my blogs too -
You know I am your friend. I know you get weary of it, but you are not alone! Hugs!
Hey girlie… back home I’ve no friends. There’s nothing to bring me home anymore except to see my Dad and baby sister… which can get me down at times. But then I focus on what I’ve got here in Dublin - a BF that loves me to bits… and that’s it. There’s no one else that I’m close to, because of the way my “friends” treated me at home.
If I focussed on the bad things like that all the time, I’d never get out of my bed. I’d lie there and cry til my head felt like it would burst. And to be honest, I do this from time to time. But now I try to focus on what I’ve got, and where I’m going.
Hope you feel better soon girl.
Dont worry about taking a day or three off. You wont distroy all your good work. And when you’re ready to get back on the wagon, we’re here.
You are just being real. Nothing wrong with that. Ya know when we have kids and get settled down it is hard to maintain friendships. Sometimes I feel the same way. As quickly as I make a friend I seem to distance them and then I am back to being solo. I workout, go to work, clean my house, run errands and look after the kids usually running to and from appointment for them so you are not alone. I sometimes wonder how other woman do it maintain friendships and their daily lifes it sure isn’t easy! I actually gravitate to people much older then myself they seem to understand me. As for the weight loss you have done a heck of a good job don’t beat yourself up!
