Mood
Depression continued. Was kind of mild the first part of the week and took a nose dive through the last half. I’m really hoping this week will be better.
Weight and Fitness
Not much exercise this week. With the depression, I kept my butt in the chair and ate everything in sight. The good news is that even after such a shitty week, I didn’t gain much.
.
On Saturday, April 16 I weighed 262.6 lbs.
On Saturday, April 23 I weighed 263.2
Total gain for the week: 0.6 lbs.
My goal this month is to lose 6 lbs. which doesn’t seem likely unless I don’t eat and exercise like crazy this week. Not suggested by Weight Watchers. My goal of getting below 200 lbs by years end is still very doable.
Writing
The worst week since I started writing. I had a hard time focusing on one thing so I spent most of the week surfing the net. Hopefully I’ll do better this week. I hope I can get some new drafts written to share with my critique group on Saturday, but not going to sweat over it too much. I think I’ve learned to be easier on myself.
Synopsis
Not a good week for me, but I’m okay. The depression does seem to be lifting.
Glad the depression is lifting!!! In bed with possible stomach flu, not my ideal diet. 🙁 hang in the Bradley! Wishing us both a better week!
Stomach flues are awful. I hope you’re better soon, and yes, me too
Considering what you’ve experienced you’ve done pretty good. You’ll catch up with the weight loss over the course of this year. Glad you are starting to feel better and you are kind to yourself.
Thank you, Journey
I am glad to hear you are being easy with yourself, even if you did not accomplish what you had originally intended. That is a big step, all within itself. ((hugs))
Thank you, Rosa. It’s something I’m finally learning.
I’m glad the depression seems to be lifting! That’s very positive. Your goal of getting under 200 pounds is definitely doable. XX
Thank you, many, The depression hasn’t lifted as much as I’d hoped, but it will pass……somday
