I'm so there!

Seriously, Kristin .. I'll go with you - I was thinking December of this year. Wanna hope over to Oz for a vaca?

[Megin]

ps - Day 1 is GREAT! It means you have already picked yourself up <--- do you see the progress there where you didn't wait until Monday to start again? That you recognized it and are right back on with renewed enthusiasm to hit a higher number


You are ok .. trust the process

None of us are perfect Kris...we all have ways of coping. Life is hard...life is unpredictable...life is always a learning curve. It's a fine line between under-eating and not wanting to eat too much....you'll find the right spot for you! I am sure of it. I find I wanna binge when I haven't eaten enough protein...maybe that could also have been a factor?

Both of you in Australia??? Seriously?? That would be AWESOME!!! Please please please head Downunder!!!

As long as you give him what he wants. And if you don't, I WILL!

Let me look into flights. This would be a fun 30th birthday present to myself!

we all have ways of coping.

I don't want to cope by eating, though. That's not good. I want to cope by doing something healthy. I had some time to think about why I did that and I know why. The family being here + work that night. I had good intentions and I was otherwise fine. My hormones are all out of whack, too. My period came a week early and I've been bleeding for ~ 10 days now. My skin is breaking out. I need a) a break and b) to feel comfortable in my own space. I have had neither and I think that is what caused it.

Speaking of family - they are being evicted from their apartment. You'd think they'd be at the apartment, packing, getting the hell out of dodge. Oh no. Not at all. They are currently in bed. Sleeping. WTF.

Workout was good yesterday. Leg press, front squat, reverse lunges, calf raise, and some extra cardio. It felt good to do that. My legs were shaking once I got to lunges. Food was good, too. I drank wine last night and woke up in a haze this morning.

Today: therapy and a workout. I plan to read tonight as well. Tomorrow, I get a haircut(YAY!) and I'll take a ride to the beach. My plan, weather permitting, is the catch sunset.

hm . . i know what you mean, but how about developing a coping mechanism that's not 'health' related at all? maybe start painting or knitting?

Painting and knitting are healthy ways of coping with stress and anxiety. That is my point. Healthy/Unhealthy does not always = exercise and diet. I'm looking for something healthy, inexpensive, and that will keep my interest. Eating nor exercising fit that for me at this point in my life.

What about focusing on not allowing stress and anxiety to cause a need for a coping strategy?
[I only ask as that is where I am leaning at the moment]

Obviously, yes, sometimes there is going to be situations that cause the need for certain undesired emotions - thats a given.
But allow those

For the every day .. or every week issues (especially those you do not directly control) <-- don't allow them to stress you. Find a way to laugh instead

[Miranda]

yuh huh.
