Today I will make new year's goals
but before that, let me just say, since i’ve been alone in my office, I PEE EVERY HOUR. and the girl across the hall I bet thinks I have a bladder issue. I’m just pounding water!!! I don’t have a problem!!!
Also, if drinking water equaled weight loss I’d be so thin.
Also, want to read a good article? The link to the link to the article is here.
blah blah blah
it’s time to diet blah blah blah.
I will. I feel gross. Etc.
But this is my focus lately:

I feel blobbbby
I don’t want to feel blobby!
For breakfast I had peanut butter toast with jelly. For lunch I had mushroom soup. Seemed a little greasy but I only had a cup.
I’m going walking with a friend tonight and going out to dinner because the holidays are always just dinner out and about all the time and I am GOING to do a yoga video when I get back from dinner. No excuses. Even a short...
6 ways to find composure and calm panic →
mindfulwellness:
1. Tune in, stretch, and take three slow breaths.
This is usually the best place to begin. Stop what you’re doing. Notice how your body is feeling. Where do you feel tense? Can you sit up straighter? Take a slow stretch, and then breathe in and out, slowly, three times. Imagine the tension melting away like ice on a summer’s day.
2. Take some time out.
If you’re in the middle...
thoughts at work in my empty office on a Wednesday...
i haven’t been eating well and i haven’t been running and i honestly haven’t felt the need to do any of these things. Well, the need? Yes. The actual action? No. I know a lot of that is probably holiday related btu I also just feel kind of….uninspired. It seems like a lot of the weight loss world is all about GETTING UP AND DOING IT! Yay!!! This cheerleader effect. And...

Today is the day it stops
Or starts, depending how you look at it. I’m done with my habits. Im just going to do it.
I'm struggling.
I don’t know what’s wrong with me. I haven’t worked out for 2 weeks. Not even zumba. I need to make a plan. It’s hard when I’m juggling two jobs and feeling kind of hoilday stressed. I need to get my butt out of bed in the morning, I think, but I am so freaking tired ALL THE TIME. I need plan help. Anyone have suggestions for how to get moving?
Apparently I am incapable of morning runs.
I must get my dad to gym early with me so I can get there and start the morning-work-out-habit
I think I may need to do some grocery shopping.
And get my meals ready to go. Chicken, grilled vegetables, sandwiches, Greek yogurts.
I also need to do some laundry, I think. I have no idea where I’ll find work clothes for tomorrow.
I was lazy about filling a prescription
So I went a week without anxiety medicine. Granted, it was an especially stressful week. I felt ok in the beginning….but the past few days have been rough. Heart racing, don’t want to be touched, crying in the car. Overehelming. I picked up my prescription last night. I feel more sane already. AND I might actually get to the gym. I’ve been eating terribly. I’ve not been...
I will go to the gym today.
I will
Today I have eaten a lot of wheat.
And probably also won’t work out. Great and good, very successful.
I have a new job!
I can finally announce it because everyone knows now. I was doing an internship for a non-profit on the days I wasn’t doing preschool, for free, because I just wanted experience, and then, after 3 weeks of me being there only 2 days a week, my supervisor quit for another job. I was pretty sure I was going to ahve to find another internship somewhere else but the next day I came in, they...
having trouble getting readdddy this morning
I don’t want to dooo it.
Things I wonder:
How do grown ups fit regular hour long exercise sessions into their life? I’m tired all the time with my new job. And I don’t want to work out at 5 after work….mornings maybe? Just need to add it? I feel like my life is full but I miss exercise—my body and my mind need it. Im in a December holiday slump. Eating crap, being lazy, not exercising except for zumba on...
Transitions are hard.
I say that a lot. I bet if you searched my blog in the past 6 months that would be the theme: Transitions are hard.
But they really are. And I’ve had a lot of transitions this past week, that I can’t talk about yet, but I will. It’s exciting, but scary.
Grown-up life as it stands right now is kind of lonely. I don’t know if that’s because I am kind of depressed or...
My goal for next week?
Gym/run 4 times. I’m slacking on the exercise!
