View MIDDLEROAD's food & exercise for this day
Gained this week. Not good. Not surprised. Its hard getting back on the horse. I am hungry and dont have enough filling low calorie foods.
Work is stressful again. They are cutting back again and there will probably be more layoffs to follow.
The news has been very depressing lately and I think I need to stop listening or reading about it. I seem to be drawn to all the bad stuff. Its hard to keep a positive attitude when you are reading and listening to all the negative things going on in the world. I have also been worrying about the future. This is an old, old habit that I thought I had kicked, but seems to have resurfaced. My mind just keeps trying to find ways to drag me back down into that old negative self.
I need to focus on my good relationships with my husband and children. My oldest daughter is having a baby in April and she just found out that it is a girl!!! She has a boy already, so its very nice that she is having a girl.

Read a good book instead of watching the news! Or do an exercise video at home!

Don't forget about your good relationship with your neighbors, we love and support you too!

Wonderful news about the grandchildren and hang in there. Stress can compound our feelings of fear and insecurity. Take care, breath deeply three times and forge on.

Congrats Gram! That is wonderful news.
Turn the tv off and put the paper away, no more reading the news for you.... It is sad all the bad out there. But like you said you need to focus on your good relationships.
I know easier said than done, I worry about the future too.
