THis past week has been a very long week for me it was the first of the month which means running my sisiter around to pay her bills and buy grocies. …
Yup! I think getting back on schedule is a top priority for most people starting on the evening of Labor Day!
Even though I now face life alone while coping with living disabled (that I have survived now for the past thirteen years) I feel very blessed in so many ways. It is just the stress of 'going it alone' is taking a harsh toll and my CFIDS disability can leave me exhausted and ill so much of the time. The better days I am in my gardens puttering around on my electric scooter planting here and there and improving this or that. I finished putting up a sitting bench and have it all painted with beautiful planters on each end so I will have to get a pic put up to share. I have been enjoying the fresh, sweet peaches that started to ripen about a month ago and are beginning to wined down now. I only drive to the store every four months or so and that helps keep the junk food that I love out of the home a bit. I eat a lot of home made soups and use mostly dried beans/peas that I stock up on and then I add fresh produce from the garden or potatoes I pick up at the store. This past month I slipped a bit and brought home more 'goodies' then usual. I only usually allow myself one small box of 'Crunch and Munch' from Walmart and some cottage cheese from Winco Foods. Everything else is healthy such as bulk oatmeal and such. But I 'stocked up' on a bit too much of the 'junk' and even though I think I can ration it out over a long period of time that never turns out and I always dive in and don't emerge until several days later I wonder how I could have eaten such 'junk'. So this last 'bout' has been a real lesson as to how I must limit myself to only one small box of Crunch and Munch and one cottage cheese along with the one small box of the ice cream I enjoy. If I can keep it to that once every four months I should be back into my groove of weight loss as I was before this last bout/slip up. Since February I was doing really terrific and then I became over confident that I could 'handle' stocking up on the 'junk' and just have a bit here and there. Boy, do I know better now!!!! How are you coping with it all? (((hugs))) Patricia
I am now 53 and have had food addiction issues for most of my adult life. It all depends on the stress in my life as to how well I manage my weight. I now cope alone since the death of my husband in 03 and that happened while I was still fighting advanced stage cancer. I just wanted to send you some good thoughts and gentle (((hugs))). Having support can help a lot. Keep hanging in there and be gentle with yourself. Patricia
you can do this it's worth it ok
To get support thought the tough times of learning how to live with GBS. I have been working towards this surgery for 4 years now. I finally got a step 2 letter in oct. of 08 now I'm getting real close to getting it done.
I would like to have a place to talk to people going throw the samethings as I do.
