So This Happened

-

I'm officially a member of planet fitness. When I got home early Wednesday morning my mom casually brought up going to the bank and opening up a checking account. I was confused, and she elaborated, and soon (after I ate breakfast) we were on our way. She had mentioned something to this affect last week, but I pretty much didn't think any thing would ever amount of it, but to my complete surprise it had. Later after therapy, I headed up to Planet Fitness to start my membership, though I was ridden with anxiety, I can't quite explain why. I got over it by the time I arrived there, and now it's done. They gave me a Planet Fitness T-Shirt in size 6x (my regular size is 10), I don't dare try it on the idea gives me anxiety, although it is in black.

Next Wednesday I don't have therapy, my therapist is taking another vacation week, she told me I inspire her so she's going rock climbing which she's never  done, I was very surprised by this but also quite flattered. I also made it a point to read the comment about me being inspiring that was posted last week. I'm quite thankful for this blog, I feel like last year I used to say thank you to you all more. So thank you for being along for the journey, I've been noticing the traffic on the blog has gone up quite a bit, initially this was a bit worrisome, but I guess the point of this blog was to inspire others, maybe the journey is compelling I don't know. Either way, thanks for reading!

Move Along Move Along, Just To Make It Through

The title, lyrics from one of my favorite bands and one of my favor songs, The All-American Reject's Move Along . It randomly popped up in my head at just the right time. I'm not going to give up, I pretty much see how sort of ridiculous my feelings have been the last 48 hours. Lifestyle changes are not easy, it took me 27 years, 27 years of gradually weight gain to put me here, and its not going to be lost over night, not even in a year, but a lot can be done in a year, more in two, and so on, and so on. I have to keep sight of what I want, and that is to be thinner, happier and healthier. Going back to work will be a new obstacle Ill have to adjust to, Ill have to endure the looks, the stares, the embarrassment, Ill have to live through my worst fears all over again, but I know these are the last of them, these are the final years of these bad experiences. Because I'm going to continuing losing weight, and the people and actions that intend to bring me down, will, but won

Weigh-in: Seeking Redemption Cove

-
So here we are, it's Monday. Time to weigh-in, after a week of overindulging on calorie packed bakery cookies and skipping on exercising and not to mention Saturday in its entirety,  I have come into this weigh-in with realistic sense of dread. Last week I weighted 357.6. This week I weigh 354.4 . So that actually turns out to be a loss of 3.2lbs. So how did this happen? Well I honestly didn't eat dinner for the last four days, so that probably plays a slight role. Like I said a in previous post I've been in an odd place mentally, and I've taken some steps back depression wise. I decided to skip dinner since Thursday part of it was because I was trying to compensate for the damage I'd already done throughout the week, and another part was just the depression making it too easy for me not to have any appetite. The plan for the week is still to reach R edemption C ove , I'm quite uncertain if this is possible to be honest. I'm quite unmotivated and still men

Seems Ive Survived The Week

Yesterday at work I only had to do computer training, I wasn't on my feet much at all, and yet they still hurt, just not severely. I was happy to get off, and yet emotionally miserable the ride home. When I arrived home and got inside, I headed to my room, and just did a genuine smile, I was glad to see my safe zone. Yesterday was a pretty emotional day (as many of you seen) , I never did end up calling that hotline, and likely wont, I just cant picture it doing me any good, what can they really do? Listen? I don't know. I'm not feeling as dark today, but I still wouldn't say my mental state has improved. However I'm glad to say I'm off until Tuesday, this may seem great, but I kind of feel like its bad. Having this time off then jumping back in, I'm sure by sometime Sunday night, things will start weighing heavy on me again. You know I didn't think Id ever be back at this point, honestly. Last summer I was a similar dark place, and I had no outlet
