Journal Entry for August 8, 2009 Mood
Saturday, August 8, 2009

I can't believe a week has one by and I haven't journalled!

 

Thanks so much to my friends commenting on my last one....it is really motivating.

Isolating myself just makes it soooo easy to go back to the unhealthy eating.

This week has not been good....I need to reevaluate.

 

Tomorrow is my birthday....and a good day for new beginnings...a new year of life to begin!

 

Thanks again...you all help me so much by taking time to stop by and give your support.

 

Big Hugs, Truth

    Hi Truth!

    I, too, tend to isolate and then my addictions become even bigger. It's such a struggle and I believe at the bottom of it all is depression, a sense of loss and feeling unloved and unlovable. It can take such a HUGE effort sometimes to push past those feelings and reach out to friends and/or family and socialize. We were not created to be alone.
    I want to wish you a very, very Happy Birthday! I hope it is filled with some fun. Think we have to take a day at a time, praise ourselves for all that we do accomplish and not beat ourselves up for what we don't.

    Wishing you blessings and peace!

    I hear you sister! I'm a big time isolator. In fact sometimes I would just like to stay in my room with the tv, the dog, and my favorite binge foods. But we all know we deserve more than that. So take time to take care of you. Enjoy your birthday and the exciting new year of life ahead of you!

    We are all with you ... I think that is sometimes why we isolate ourselves... so we can do what we want to without any one saying "NO,STOP"....The biggest happy birthday to you dear friend.... I hope you have an awesome day filled with the love, laughter and fun you deserve...Today is the first day of the rest of our lives and all that. May it be filled with health and well being, with good choices and a letting go of the old ways and a new clinging to all that is good

    the buckstopshere is just SOO right on and I've never heard it put quite that way before. The quote has given me great insight into myself. "I think that is sometimes why we isolate ourselves...so we can do what we want to without anyone saying, 'NO STOP' "

    Truth,

    Haven't heard from you in quite awhile. You've been in my thoughts. I hope you are well!
