Comments on: Note to Self… http://ronisweigh.com/2009/05/note-to-self-41.html One Mom's Journey from Fat to Skinny to Healthy. The "After" story continues. . .

I've never commented but I've been exactly where you have been lately. I've been so grumpy and I had no idea why. I am starting a new job and moving to an entirely different big city. I am recently single and starting it all over again. In short, a lot of huge life changes. And I have had a break for the past four months of work so I've had all this free time to do whatever I would love to do. But, I've been in a funk. Not working out (even though I have the time), sitting around, making unhealthy food choices, and just becoming progressively funkier. There are stretches of days (today included) where I experience a feeling of depression and sadness, and it can be overwhelming. Instead of responding to it in the right way, I've been letting it get a hold of me more and more and that can be destructive to your healthy habits. I think staying busy does two things. It keeps you moving and keeps your mind active. From over thinking things, feeling sorry for yourself, etc. And when I only have an hour to work out, you better believe I'll do it. But I haven't been working out in weeks. I was reading your posts this week, and your situation spoke to me. It is easy to feel isolated and alone in your feelings and spiral of unhealthy choices. I felt like this so much lately. And it can go so quickly into a downward spiral. I've been on this path and it was wonderful to read your picking yourself up. I need to do the same for myself. Please enjoy the changes you are going through. It is all a part of life. And know that the things you write and do are important to some people (even if it causes you stress in your life). I'm usually a silent reader, but you've touched me, and done so by just being yourself. Thank you.
