Super duper grumpy

I am just out of sorts. Maybe it's Christmas and I'm not ready for it, maybe it's that I've only ran 2 days this week because my time has been spent WORKING, maybe it's because I'm generally PO'd at DH lately, maybe it's because every day this week I've eaten something sweet and felt crummy after.....I dunno. Looked at the RNY board and wanted to get snarky with those know-it-alls being so righteous to the poor newbs who ask questions. Ugh.

It's unlike me. Not here to whine....or maybe I am.

Oh, Carlea, I hear you!  I'm feeling a bit irritated, too, and not quite sure why.  

I think it's that we're not getting the endorphins we need, you and I.  Let's do something about that - even if it means running in the middle of the night?

I've been grumpy since Thanksgiving ... which is when I started shooping for x-mass.
I agree with you on the RNY board - I rarely post, but I do lurk.
I also have a cold right now and havent excersized this week cause of it.
We can get over this slump - somehow!

I can feel with you!  I've had weeks like this, but I blame PMS on mine!   But I don't usually notice how bad it is until I get my period, then look back at the last week or so!  Whine away....that is why everyone is here! 

Hope you feel better soon!

What I like to do is bite back at all the snarky people (but erase the message or cancel out of it)!  Sometimes it makes me feel better to just get it all off my chest!  have a hug from me!!

Hmm.  Now I'm thinking I should go over to the RNY board to see what all this is about...

(Haven't been there in weeks.) 

Hmm, just did a quick browse and didn't see anything.  It's hard to keep up over there, so many posts!

 Oh golly, I'm so sorry you're feeling snarky.  I can totally relate.

So let me throw something else into the mix here.  For many of us, this is the first holiday season without the use of our apparent drug of choice "food"!  I think there's a big difference in how the world looks and feels.  When it's all wonderful, it shines even brighter, but it also seems a lot easier to get out of sorts and annoyed.

I personally would like the holidays to be over.  i have several "food" parties this week.  On is my mediation group potluck, two office parties etc.  You all get the drift.  Then I'm off to visit friends for a week so more food to resist.  After I get home, Zach is here for 4 days.  I feel like food abounds at this time of year.   Maybe I'm grumpy because my energy is going into resistance.  It's so true that they operate on our stomach, not our minds.  My mind is getting a good workout this season to keep my resistance strong.

I say we grump away if that's what we need to do.  Better here where everyone understands, than with others who may get their feelings hurt.

I have a great life and I'm really appreciative of the abundance in my life.  Thanks OH friends!

 Oh yeah Lee  I totally relate  .   Add to that the lack of light  , the lack of warmth ....  the  short days and long nights that make an overeater  well  just  make excuses  to EAT  ....GRRRRR .

I WISH  i had a fireplace  to toast my toesies .... and  a bearskin  ( well - lambskin)  rug  to read on ... a Florida vacation  ( i can go  , just have to book tickets or drive )  ...

I guess I CAN say im working on all these things ...  

once U have other good things in Ur life  BESIDES  overeating  NOT  eating becomes SO MUCH EASIER  . 

for some reason  i have  a LOT  LESS  of those  in winter  .... no garden  ,  no  outdoor exercise to speak of  , my home gym isnt all it could be  ( poor me lol - even i have to laugh at his one )  

I have SO MUCH to be grateful for  .....  and take away  that darn yule log  already darn it ....  

Oh, love that word SNARKY! Yup, just how I feel. I agree about the lack of my drug of choice being a factor. I am sooo happy I've done this, but sometimes I miss the enjoyment food brought. And the temporary dampening of emotions. Got to get use to all these feelings! Think I'll get out for a walk as soon as the frost disappears. Bet that will help. Brrrr!

I know the weather is a big part of my mood.  It has been cold, snow, grey.  I did get to drive yesterday, one pony, but that was it for the week.  I've been to Curves but DH has been home all week with the TV on and I can't get to it for the Wii.  So lack of exercise and no time/weather for the ponies is a big part of mine.  Then if I am stuck inside, it is doing things I don't really want to do.  I even cleaned out the frig.  Yuck.  Paperwork, tax stuff, yuck.  I can avoid all that when I can get outside.
And Christmas.  I have my shopping done but I don't feel done.  I usually have a get together with staff and it isn't even planned yet so I can't see it happening.  Still have to get a tree up.  Maybe some of the get together is food related but the tree????  I think I'm turning into a grinch.
