BPaula47's Journal, 05 November 2016

I’m not doing so well. Horrible day today. Not sure what’s going on or I should say what triggered this. Been sad all day and eating crazy. Lots of memories I can’t handle I think and crying. Did some behaviors I haven’t done in years. Lots of shame.

I know I’m coming off cycle time and this time of year but it shouldn’t have brought all this down on me. I didn’t even get my weight training in today. Forgot all about it.

Tried to shake it off with music and Lego twice. It worked for awhile. All this therapy stuff. I don’t think I can handle it. Thought I could. I think it’s too much with trying to control my food issues and worrying about surgery soon and then all these memories coming at me. Too much.

I was feeling some anger too…at my nephew in law, at people in general who mistreat others for profit (Dakota Pipeline owners and Kidney stealing Dr’s in India) and feeling helpless, too. Not much I can do about either of these situations. Need to stop watching so much news, maybe.

Okay, think positive…let’s see I did take all my meds and did all my self care (miracle upon miracles). What else? No drinking or ordering in contraban food. I didn’t completely carb out. I ate my two weight loss meals like I was supposed to. I called a friend (not home). I jurnaled what I ate, exactly. I’m doing this which is…well, I didn’t want to at first, but I did it. That’s it…all I can think of.

Only thing I haven’t tried is sleeping it off. So that’s next after writing up food meal plan for tomorrow. Kinda don’t see the point since I’m always changing it from screwing up, but I’ll do it anyway. tomorrow will be better…right?

Good night.

Read a good uplifting book, don't watch the news for a week and don't connect to any news or stories on the internet as well. I looked at your food log, I hope you don't mind but I recommend that you replace the veg spread for real butter and don't eat turkey sausage, it has too much sodium, you can make your own with ground turkey. Too much sugar, over 25 grams can alter your mood as well as preservatives so up your game and try to eat whole foods, not pre-made to include canned anything. Your calorie load is not bad, but the quality of what you are eating could be better. It's good that you shared how you are feeling, that takes guts and means that you care and are self aware, bless you!

Sorry you are having a session of the blues. Who knows why days like that hit us, but hit us they do. Hopefully you will have a better day tomorrow.

My regular black and bleak moods lifted considerably when I went gluten free and very low sugar. A friend introduced me to Paleo and I was amazed at how much my mood lifted. I've never gone back - over 5 years now. This was a big improvement in my life - after a lifetime of struggle with dark moods. Something to consider.

Thanx all, kpwcalories, Char60; the sleep did help allot. I even gave myself an extra hour thinking I was waking up late. Then I realized I forgot to change my clock last night. Today seems better and I’m gonna stay away from the newsfeeds for awhile…maybe I’ll watch on Tuesday to find out about the election, but that’s it. OliverBeMe, good idea. Think I’ll go straight for some stand up comedy shticks. I love comedians. QueenofEngels, no I don’t mind at all. You’re right I have been slipping lately in the food prep department. I’ve gotten lazy since my move and have been relying on Schwan’s way too much. I do have some ground turkey that I can make up today. I’ll check out going back to butter and see how it will fit into this meal plan with sparrow as far as fat. May need to come up with something else for moisture and flavor on foods. Rhontique, my therapist told me to expect that days like this would show up soon. We’ve been discussing allot from the past but I didn’t think it would be THIS soon. And, for a crazy minute, I thought I could handle it with no problem. Just because it was so long ago and all. erikahollister, that actually might be a good idea. I’ll ask my dietitian about it especially since I’ll need to really drop sugar and carbs after surgery. It’ll add a little to my distress for awhile though. I’m a crunchy ssalty carb-o-holic. I was good at getting rid of white flour and sugar, but have been relying on whole grains mostly. But yep, definitely something to consider. Peace all. I’m getting hungry and it’s breakfast two time. Hmmph, I actually can’t wait to get off this optifast product line. That might help allot too.
