Having a party...

Well.. I am having a pity party.  Someone please help me out here.  I have no reason to be "blue".  Yes.. I am bored with my new menu.  Yes..  I have thrown up twice.  But otherwise I feel pretty doggone good.  I have lost about 21 pounds since July 16th.  I am doing pretty much what I want to do.  I have a ton of friends and family who are supporting me.  I just have no real reason to be depressed. Well.. maybe I am missing my old friend chocolate.  LOL  I know that this is food withdrawal in some form.. but I had to tell someone and I had to tell someone who would understand.   I have been on antidepressants in the past and I really did not want to have to do that again.  But.. I may have to if I don't get out of this funk I am in.  Guys.. just say a prayer for me and thank you for "listening" to my rambling.  :)

It sounds like you are mourning the loss of a friend....FOOD!!  You have to get yourself out and get busy!!  Get your mind busy with other things....Clean out your closets...got to the mall, just get your mind on something.  I know I've been on diets and have felt the same way...I was even in a really bad mood, P.Oed at the world for no good reason cause I wanted to eat so bad, but knew I couldn't and it affected everything.  But, it passed and things got better, so hang in there it will get better.  Everyone has to learn to find comfort in new things instead of our dear OLD friend, food. Hope you have a day! Andrea Ps how do you get your name in your signature like that??  I have it saved on my puter but can't get it in my signature....See this will help you get your mind busy!!LOL Andrea

I just copied and pasted my name in the signature.  :) And I know it is food withdrawal.. I just need to say it.  LOL  I teach.. so I have had lots of time on my hands.. but the days of summer are waining away.  That has to help some.  :)

You're doing GREAT!!  These feelings will pass!!  I like to got to the mall and look at all the cute outfits I'm gonna buy when I'm thinner.  That usually helps me!  Just remember your not alone in the way your feeling....we all go thru it and it is completely normal! Andrea

Sorry you're feeling mopey. Probably such a drastic change for you that EVERYTHING is affected. Cheer up! You have such a pretty smile.   Mare 

THanks Mare.. I just needed to get it out.  We went out to dinner tonight and although I only ate a few bites of soup.. it made me feel better.  :)
