Taking A Mental Health Day

-
Knocked that drug test out of the way early yesterday morning, now just have to wait for Wal-Mart to get the results and set up orientation. Ive been anxiety free the last 24 hours and it has been great, and I'm really trying to enjoy this weekend, as boring and uneventful as it may end up being. Yesterday I had a bowl of Pops Cereal, Ive always found that to be very bland. I had a sandwich for lunch, and Cod fish for dinner.

Report Card

Diet:  Solid. My stomach is being weird, I didn't eat much yesterday, and yet after I ate lunch I felt like I had stuffed myself like a Thanksgiving Turkey, and several hours later the same thing happened with dinner. I am certainly not stuffing myself, so I don't know why that has been happening. Make up your mind stomach! One day its like I'm not eating enough, next it feels like Ive over done it.

Exercise: Poor. Again I didn't workout, so I only worked out two times last week making my total miles a mere 6.

Water: Excellent.

Sleep: Fair

Mental Health: Decent

I'm planning on fitting at least one mile into my day, but I will just be taking it easy overall, I'm taking a mental health day. Keeping my mind from negative thoughts. Thinking of having a movie marathon. Happy Valentines Day! Hope you all have someone special to spend the day with and exchange heart shape objects and cards. I personally don't, and I used to get pretty down about this day, but not this year for some reason. Once I lose the weight I'm sure Ill actually be able to share these days with someone, a guy can dream right?

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

Boring Weekend Nears Its End

-
Yesterday was rather boring, I watched movies, most of them not very good ones. I ate a bowl of cereal for breakfast and fasted till dinner (I think the fasting will be a regular now) . For dinner I had some rather bland barbecue turkey meatballs, my experience with turkey meat is either it's good, or its bad, there is no in between. Anywho, I downed those with chips which is where the bulk of the days calories came from. I consumed 2,185 calories in total. Going in to this next week Id like to stay below 1800 calories, or even 1,500. Im curious about tomorrow's weigh in, wondering if it will go well. I'm concerned about maybe gaining weight somehow. It's way too soon to see the numbers go up. My goal is still to be out of the 500s by mid April, actually, let's just say by May. I have a doctors appointment tomorrow morning that should be interesting, just standard stuff this time. I'm planning workout boot camp for the coming, in -door miles every day u

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
