UGH! I feel like a slug...

Hi CT pals - Just when things are getting good, I am slowing down and feeling like a slug. When I should feel more energetic, I am feeling tired and just not into doing a darn thing. Mind you, it's only been a couple of days of this, but I just can't seem to motivate myself to do a darn thing. I feel the old self-sabotage demons coming on. Somebody come and slap me or something!!! Ok...well...just wanted to vent. Hugs, Carla

Hi Carla, Well no slap for you, how about a little understanding instead Sometimes we get into these kind of moods & have these strange feelings, but you just have to pick yourself up, dust yourself off and start over again as they say. Believe me this is just temporary and will pass. We go thru so many hormonal changes with this weight loss that sometimes it throws us for a loop. My suggestion is to do something very special for yourself and also I know if I do something really nice for someone else, it makes me feel great. OK now get ready, I'm casting out those awful demons and sending some happy thoughts your way. Hugs, Mary Lou P. S. Also you just come here and vent anytime you want, ok

Hi Carla I know how you're feeling. I am going through the same thing myself. It comes and goes. Go buy yourself something you've been wanting. Shopping always makes me feel better. Maggie

Carla, Hang in there and keep on pluggin'. We are allowed to have "down" days Don't be so hard on yourself! Treat yourself to something special....like a pedicure of facial...or a new outfit! And lean on us if you need us! JA

Hi Carla, Sorry you aren't feeling very motivated these days. Just know that is normal. We all get those kind of days...... even weeks. If you want a kick in the butt you've got it!! If you want some words of encouragement you've got that and if you just want to vent you've come to the right place. We are just so versatile around here . Seriously though, take some time for you and do something nice for yourself or something you haven't done in a long time. Spread those wings and enjoy the flight. Be good to yourself, you deserve it. Linda

This too shall pass... It's so normal to go through periods when you don't feel as motivated and maybe feel down in the dumps. I know I've gone through those periods ... for a couple of weeks at time sometimes. But they do go away, and you will pick yourself back up & get back on course. I promise!! No kicks from me, a hug suffices. Hang in there! XO Kathy F.
