Hopeless

I am talking through my stressors instead of eating to distract myself as in times past.  I got Cool Sculpting done on my belly.  And I am taking lipotropic shots.  I can see they are all coming together to work well...the healthiest being the emotional healing, which makes me feel so much better that my appetite for snacking has been cut way down.  But I still feel like such a far slob.  And it feels hopeless.

It's hard to not get discouraged. But these things sound like great progress. I have a hard time keeping motivation going. I kinda go.nack.and fourth. But working on that. I also not patient. Sigh.

You're right, it can be so difficult! Motivation is very hard, especially when others expect you to handle that on your own. I hope you have a wonderful support system. I know that this forum is a big relief to me - knowing that others are gathering around this same issue, supporting one another, makes a world of difference.
And I want you to know that you are not alone and that you can heal and be healthy, one step at a time. We are all in this together!

    I'm horrified!  I knew my insurance would go up due to getting a new car but I didn't expect it to go up over $2,000.  I did have an accident with the snow/ice in the winter.  I was just telling my brother that I have had my car since March 2, 2026 and have only spent $75 on an oil change.  Now this!  I called another insurance company and their quote was over $4,000.  I guess I have to pay...

    We all have 24 hours in a day.  How we spend these hours is important.  Watching a little bit of a video about how sitting affects us made me aware of how much sitting and laying down I do.  Gonna have to work on that.Your turn.  Tell me another truth.
