Running On Empty





Today, I am running on empty.  I just don't fee like "me."  I am in a total funk.  That's the only way that I can describe how I am feeling.  Maybe you can relate.  Maybe you can't, but that's where I am.
 
I know that I ran myself ragged over vacation.  We never stopped "going."  Vacation was fantastic.  It was great to step away from everyday life for a few days, and just enjoy ourselves.  I came back with my brain feeling renewed!  The break was good for me.  I have just been out of it, physically, since we got back.  This has been going on for almost a week now.  Excuse the terminology, but my ass is dragging!
 
I know that I'm tired.  I don't feel like I will ever catch up with rest.  My motivation for pretty much everything is gone, for the time being.  I really don't feel like writing this blog, but I feel that these feelings, may be worth capturing.  As far as exercise goes, I just can't seem to force myself to do anything - not even a walk around the block.  My mind is telling me that it just takes too much effort.
 
I am staying on track, as far as food goes.  I'm tracking and doing what I am supposed to do, and the scale does reflect that.  At least I haven't lost that motivation.
 
So, is it coming back to reality that has really brought me down?  Is it the fact that I did more in four days than I usually do in two weeks?  Am I getting lazy, and getting complacent?  Or do I just need a swift kick in the butt!  I guess that only time will tell.


Always remember – YOU ARE AMAZING!  Go out and make it a great day!

Doubt Can Kill Your Dreams

Doubt kills more dreams that failure ever will.  All of us have dreams (or goals, if you want to look at them that way.)  As an example, we want to lose weight.  When you decided that you wanted to do this, did you doubt that you could do it?  Did you think that you could do it, and then have someone else tell you that you wouldn't be able to do it, therefore, making you doubt yourself?  How do you think that this will affect your attempt?  If you have a bad day, do you just throw in the towel, and tell yourself that you knew you couldn't do it? I fall into this category.  I want to run a mile, but I have caught myself doubting that I will ever be able to do it.  I have doubted my ability to do this for many years. I justify the doubt by telling myself that I'm just not a runner.  Well, I want to get past that.  I really want to be able to run a mile.  I know that to accomplish this, I will have to constantly tel...

Decisions! Decisions!

 Every day, all of us have to make decisions - what to wear, where to go, what to do, what to eat, and probably many more decisions.  More often than not, I struggle with decisions.  Some days I go through 2-3 outfits before I make a decision.  I'm often involved in the conversation of "Where do you want to go?" "I don't know, where do you want to go?" I am an "over-thinker," and sometimes, I think that makes it even more difficult to make the decision.  There are times that I wish someone else would just make decisions for me! I just got back from vacation, and I had a very difficult time making decisions - food decisions.  A few years ago, my boyfriend and I went on vacation, and we were both on diets.  We went to this famous restaurant, and didn't want to cheat, so we didn't eat anything that we "shouldn't" eat.  That was over four years ago, and we still talk about how we will never do that again.  It bothere...

Why Do You Want Me To Fail?

What happens when your significant other doesn't support you in your journey?  What happens when their words and actions hurt?  What happens when you feel like your friends don't support you, and want you to fail?  Do you think about quitting because it is just easier than dealing with the hurt, and lack of support?    What is wrong with people?  Friends and significant others are supposed to love you and support you, so why don't they?  People in general, (not all people, but many) are mean, selfish, and belittling to others.  They want to bring others down, and they work hard at doing this.  It makes some people feel bigger to bring others down.  When you are in this situation, it is hard to see.  The problem is not you!  The problem is them!  Some people are just miserable in their own lives, and they try to reflect it on other people, when they should be taking a good look at themselves...
