feeling defeated

I hate to sound like a broken BAD NEWS record but I went out to go to work this morning and my car wouldn't start. For real??

I am feeling crazy defeated. I was all jazzed about my WI last night, then I get up this morning and start deciding what to wear to work and I look in the mirror and all I see is this FAT CHICK staring back at me. FREAKING CRAZY BRAIN. At least I am able to recognize it for what it is. My dis-eased mind. I am not going to fall for the lie. This will not set me up to sabotage my efforts. I will not do it.

Then I read about what a rough day Jen ( prior fat girl ) has in front of her and I feel guilty for feeling all picked on. I know in the grand scheme of things this is a blip, but damn it how many blips can I take? Crap I need to quit asking that!

I really feel good despite the crazy crying that I am now doing. I know, stupid....but I can't help it. Things will work out. I am so tried of saying that too.

    You'll get through it. Hope the car is nothing serious. Maybe we all need to put a before picture on our mirrors I bet that would make all of us realize we are making progress. Wish I could give you a hug *hug*.

    Oh, darn, something else eh? This has got to be the end of your run of bad luck, surely?

    Funny thing is, I have some days when I feel so slim and some days I feel so fat too :(

    Still, you are slimmer and still getting smaller every day - 53lbs is fantastic and even if you aren't totally happy with what you see in the mirror, your body will be feeling a lot better anyway.

    Besides, looking in the mirror when your shoulders are slumped and your face is red and puffy from crying, just isn't going to look good even on the tiniest of tiny model-creatures.

    Hope you can get the car fixed and you got to work OK, life without a car is much harder.

    More (((hugs))) x

    The fact that you are still writing about this is great. You are showing such strength of character - and crying about it is understandable! Lord knows, I would be.

    Don't let The Crazy Brain convince you of untruths. You are doing a great job. You've come such a long way and have been so strong and so good to yourself. Don't let TCB convince you that you are undeserving of good things.

    Together, let's all set an intention. You are good with the money you have. Your car will be fixed. You will continue to take good care of yourself.

    May we all live in peace.

Contentment at last

Oh my goodness!!  I can't beleive how long it's been since I haave posted here.  So maybe things have changed.  The month I moved in with my son and daughter in law, a friend from high school asked if I wanted to be a "Granny Nanny" for her 86 year old mother.  It would mean moving back to my home town and living with the woman.  I didn't hesitate.  I had a good feeling about it from the start, so I went for it.  So, as of the first of October I have been residing in a cozy little home in Orem, UT.  The woman is just a sweetheart.  So easy to please and I feel so comfortable.  The pay is great too.  I like living with someone and it has just been a win/win.  I love my surroundings.  I love the mountains, the memories, being around my extended family.  My sister lives here, as does my aunt, a ton of cousins on both sides of the family.  Of course the downside is I am away from my kids and my grandkids.  I m...

A Traditionally Built Woman

I am listening to the latest No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency books. Blue Shoes and Happiness. They are sweet simple stories about a woman in Botswana Africa. She is a "traditionally built" woman. This means of course that she is heavy. I have never seen the show on HBO, but I love the books. In this book she decides to go on a diet. All her litle "insights" about going on a diet are cute....and so true. My favorite is how it's human nature that when you decide to restict ANYTHING you always end up wanting more of it. How she thought that was funny, until she herself was on a diet, now not so funny. How she gets crabby when she's hungry. I could so relate and it made me smile. People, we are more alike then we are different. The book is written by a white man, which I think is great. See, more alike then we are different. I have my grandkids birthday party today. My daughter, "C," is doing 2 kids in one party. They are still young enough that they don...
