Monday, Apr 6 2009 - Get up and go
View SIMKATHY's food & exercise for this day
Yesterday I decided that I had to make myself just get up and go otherwise I was going to fall into a black hole. Many days in the last two weeks, I have just not left my bedroom. I went to work but was an empty shell working at about 20% effectiveness. This is so not ME. I don't believe I have gained too much weight however.. maybe 3 pounds? I'm just not going to sweat that right now. The gym called loud enough to me yesterday and I made it over there.
It's a beautiful sunny day in Seattle... and I just don't want to leave my bedroom. But I will make myself get up and go!
I can say however and uncategorically that I am looking forward to watching the Biggest Loser tomorrow..
Whoohoo: i just decided to weigh myself and take the hit. But truthfully, I haven't gained or lost over this traumatic three weeks. Just the same. How can that be? I was eating more comfort foods. I'll take it!

I think stress speeds up your metabolism. Glad you're getting out, every day will get a tiny bit easier and one day you will actually feel like turning on the radio . . . you won't allow yourself to sing but you will listen to the music . . . and slowly but surely you will begin to sing along. I know you think you will never smile or laugh again but TRUST ME . . . . it just takes time.

Thank you for those well said thoughts. My angels were watching out for me when I ate those four dove bars throughout last week... AND didn't gain any weight.... thank you angels.

My mother always says, "Ups and downs are a part of life but the downs really suck!!" Amen I say, Amen!! It's so hard during my depression days to make myself get out of bed and all I can say is that I must have some really BIG angels out there because I find myself doing what I need to do when I need to do it. You've got a friend in me - please feel free to contact any time during you're struggles - you'll be in my thoughts and prayers!! Take care of yourself - sometimes letting the angels do more than you - oops felt a little kick from my angel - I think she's pretty tired lately....
