hey, i'm just stopping by to check in on you. i'm sorry things don't seem to be going well for you right now . i hope everything is okay and that things start to get better for you

You can journal, even if you're not eating the healthiest stuff. Sometimes it helps! If you're prone to emotional eating then maybe you can try eating something filling that won't contain too many calories. If I'm really in the mood to eat emotionally, I try to head toward popcorn - you can eat a TON without doing too much damage.

I also think exercise helps to relieve stress & worry so maybe you could get out for a walk or run, or do some other kind of physical activity.

I hope things start going better soon!

DBF's crisis may be getting better but still in that grey place(he keeps me updated by phne and IM)

I'm hopefully going back to school come fall but not sure yet

I'm trying to lose those 10 pounds before DBF and I go on our road trip this summer

Breakfast: coffee

 

[DoeWDW]

I'm happy to see you! Take good care of you, OK?

 

[CourtasanSatine]

I'm trying to be good but it's hard

 

[DoeWDW]

You don't have to be perfect or even good - how about being just a little bit better than yesterday?

I'll continue to keep you and your DBF in my prayers. Hope things work out soon.

 

[CourtasanSatine]

that's the plan for now,just do better than yesterday

 

[CourtasanSatine]

I do feel crummy,my brother won a scholarship and I feel pretty dumb at the moment.Try living up to that(I'm calling DBF pretty soon which always helps)

I'm sending a your way! I can relate. My brother was the star athlete in our high school - the golden boy with all the friends and trophies, National Honor Society, loved by all. I felt very small next to him and all his success.

I'm 40 now and have come to realize that we all have times in life when we'll feel small and insignificant and times when we'll shine for all the world to see. My time was not in high school - I had to wait til I was older to shine. And my "golden boy" brother has gone through his share of tough times. It all evens out in the end. We're all given gifts - things we're good at - and it sounds like your brother has found some of his. Work to find your gifts - I promise you've got them!!

Hope your Wednesday turns out to be a good day!!

He does hate the fact I'm happily seeing the same guy for almost 2 years now and he can't keep girlfriends for longer than 6 months so I've got him there

 

[DoeWDW]

Popping in to say hi!

I hope all's going well, or at least better with the BF!

 

[CourtasanSatine]

things are getting better on the DBF front

 

[CourtasanSatine]

I started a livejournal as a outlet of sorts and I'm still trying to lose the weight

 

[DoeWDW]

OK, I've gotta ask - what's a livejournal??

Hope your days are filled with ! Do something healthy for you - take a walk, drink some extra water, take a multivitamin!
