Sunday, Mar 25 2007 - Awful with food

View NIKKI8's food & exercise for this day

Okay, I've just been awful with the food lately. It was horrible this weekend. I felt stressed and upset about my marriage still and nurtured myself with food. Yes, I know better. My husband and I talked today. I cried almost all morning. I am worn out from all of the tears, but I feel better. I am PMS-ing so I thing this has a lot to do with how I'm feeling. But my husband and I did get some things worked out. Not everything, but I feel better about things now. I have a little more hope. I know he loves me, we just have no time together at all. With such young children, it is so difficult. I am told that this is common with couples with very young children, so I'm thinking-this gets better, yes?
So many things to do for both of us. So stressed and busy. No wonder we lose track of each other.
Okay, well, tomorrow I start BFL-again. Got off track last week when I was sick. PMS and marriage stress didn't help. But no more excuses. I want to take care of me and care for my health. That means clean eating six days a week.
Thank you to those who gave me encouraging words after my last blog entry. That means so much to me. :love:

Make actual dates on a calendar. Even it if is to stay at home and sit next to each other and watch a half hour show... something, after the kids go to bed just to connect. That is SO important. We made the mistake of not doing this and our marriage was in terrible shape. Please make time for one another! It will make you both SO much happier! :kiss: Glad you got some things worked out. Let me know if you need a shoulder. I have two perfectly good and broad ones available! :kiss: Hang in there my dear!

I'm glad you guys got to talk. Of course it is normal when you have small children to have trouble making time for each other. But you have GOT to do it. Your children need Mommy and Daddy to have a happy marriage. That is critical to their lifelong emotional health. So do it for you and do it for them! I think things will get better when you finish with school too ... just don't lose each other in the process! Good luck with BFL. I'm excited to see how that goes for you.
