Okay so today was a little different. I pretty much stayed in my pajamas most of the day, however I still worked on my list. I began my day with a mild stretching workout and it made me feel really good. I continued down my list and then got tired so I took a nap while listening to calming music. I must point out that this was just a nap and not a keep lying in the bed and feeling sorry for myself kind of thing. I have been known to do that and I am making an honest effort not to do that and pushing myself to do more than I am capable of or that I think I am capable of at the moment. I got up and took a refreshing shower while listening to 70's dance music (YES it was rocking!). There were many greats and many I wanted to reference for today but I ended on one of my favorites that keep on motivating me from childhood until now. Earth, Wind, and Fire - "Shining Star" " You're a shining star No matter who you are Shining bright to see What you could ...
Well I haven’t really felt like myself this week. Depression has seemed to come back; not full-scale, but I guess this past Sunday I found out about a school friend that passed away that was my age and after that my mood kind of went down I’m not sure if that’s what happened but that’s the only thing I can figure that happened so I haven’t been on my new schedule of high and getting things done since then. I’m not sure how to really describe it other than to say that I have had no motivation this week at all and it kind of worries me because I was doing so good and now all the sudden I’m not and I’m not sure what to do about it. Today I have felt kind of headachy and I just don’t feel good and I snapped at somebody for no reason and I’ve gotten basically nothing done. I’m not sure how to get myself back to how I was last week but I will call my therapist tomorrow and see if I can figure out what I need to do right now I’m gonna go take some medicine and go to sleep I think even th...
Well, I have started a new journey. Life has changed in so many ways in the past 6 months. We moved to another state, Lee and I both took new jobs, we left our oldest to finish high school, just to name a few. I have been able to seek medical help with my asthma and sleep apnea, which have GREATLY improved life for me. I have also decided to proceed with gastric bypass surgery at the end of the summer. This is not a decision I took lightly and have prayed and thought a lot about it. It seems to me that the benefits far outweigh the risk. I have so many health concerns and this is by no means the easy way out. I thought that at one time, however I have been educated on the real deal for weight loss surgery. This is going to be a hard journey, but worth it in the long run. Baby steps. I will take MANY, but eventually I will come out on the other side walking proudly. My first goal is to lose 15 pounds before I go back to the nutritionist and fitness specialist at the end of this mo...
