Me a Procrastinator?!?!?!

I know there are a lot of closet procrastinators like me out there, people who have goals or things to do (big or small), but put off acting on them for one reason or another. We’re stressed when we procrastinate. But then we also procrastinate when we’re stressed. Procrastination is a nasty beast. It’s a mean, energy-sapping, time-chewing cycle. But you can break out of it. If I can do it, anyone can. It’s really a mindset and a habit. It’s a matter of deciding to just get something out of the way while you have the chance. #1 Rule to changing this habit is, you see the task, do the task. By Mike Kramer, Staff Writer There is a whole article written but this part knocked me square between the eyes.  Example: I was pittling in the kitchen, you know cleaning a little counter space. Well anyway I had something that needed to go to the trash outside. I thought to myself I wil do it later. That box sat on the kitchen floor for 2 days. I finally get this got upset with my DH because "I know he saw those boxes and he could have thrown them away". I did throw them away but this is how my life was going before We came here. Always putting off the weight loss "project".  Not anymore I will make a true effort to get it done now, It has to stay in front of me so I can see it and just do it. Thanks for letting me vent. Now I must get ready for church and to bol some yummy crawfish. NO CARBS in the bugs YEAH!!!!!! Have a Blessed Day

I am not really a procrastinator, married to one tho! Oh I can avoid things that need doen - paperwork, mainly. But I always get to it eventually without somebody threatening me! It coudl be said that many fat people eat rather than face things they really need to be doing:  cleaning the house, closets, paying bills, etc. In fact, when i am head hunger-ing i often stop and ask myself - what is it i am avoiding (if anything)?  Am i hungry, angry, lonely or tired? Bored?  Just taking a minute to at least examine what you are realy feeling before indulging in the drug of choice makes a big difference.
