Right? The nurse even said she asked to just get me a 15 day short prescription to hold me over and no go. Ugh!! Yeah i am doing my best to take care of myself which getting organized is a part of that. You can do it. I will be sending good vibes for you! 14 hours later and here i am!! I make all sorts of different foods. I am working on going paleo but its a slow transition and i don;t know if i will ever be fully paleo. What about you?

Hello! I meant to write this right after work but that did not happen!! We went and picked out a new washer, since ours broke yesterday and then installed it. Then i made dinner (frozen pizza) ate way to much of it and played games with a friend like i do every monday. Goals for week 3: 8 cups of water daily. work out 3x a week (MOn., Wed., Fri.) Finish cleaning master bedroom No Fast Food Restart morning and evening routines Bullet journal everyday Doctor's Call (Wednesday)

It's hard to go through that. We are here for you. *hugs*

Last week was... Tough... I got into the cycle of i didn't write here i felt bad about it feeling bad made me keep not writing and the circle continued all week until today when i decided no i am going to do this. I didn't have my week 3 goals up but overall i did pretty well. I had gone shopping so a lot of homemade meals this week. Tracking was almost non existent though. Steps were good and that was about it. I think it may be my depression and anxiety hitting me hard and im out of my persciption and my doctor is in another town and wouldn't just refill it and i am a busy person. So i managed to work out a phone call check in Wednesday to get some refills. After that I will work on getting a doctor down here. Otherwise i cleaned my room and washed almost all of our clothes, which is good cause our washer broke last night. We found a puppy we want but my husband thinks she is too far away so that will probably not happen. Cleaned my entire bedroom. Did some puzzles that was nice. Sorry I was gone... I will post week 4 goals today. and if i don't get after me please

Ooh i will do so! I am not a mom but i am motivated most of the time so maybe it will help! Thank you. This was nice to hear. So this weekend with being and tired i did take it easy. Friday was game night but i decided to skip to take a nap and clean my craft room. It felt great to do something for myself when I wanted to because I wanted to. I got over half the room tidied that night and only have a little bit left to go. That makes me so happy! Saturday a friend came over and we played Hyrule Warriors then went to another friends house to play Settlers of Catan which i loved but dang did i lose epicly in both games we played it made me a bit sad. Then back to my place for dinner and a movie and then some Diablo 3 with the friend and Husband. Sunday was even less productive. I got up ate and went to a movie with a friend. We saw La La Land and i loved it. Also i did have some popcorn and a pop at the movie. Then I went home and sat down to rest and love my dogs and got sucked into stuff on my phone. Then my phone rang and it was my FIL with my hubby wondering if i wanted to get some pizza for lunch with the family. Of course i agreed because i don't do much with his family. So I wet. Hubby had ordered me a pop so I drank it, just the 1 though so 2 total for the day and had 2 pieces of no meat mashed potato pizza. It was good and the family time was nice. Back at home I spent the rest of the day gaming with the hubby which was nice we both had been very busy this week and didn't get to do much together. Monday I was back into the swing of things. I will post my Week 2 goals today and select someone to challenge me.

Your buying no soda streak is super impressive to me. I like to drink flavored things so soda is usually my go to. Trying to swap to flavored water now. Way to achieve basically all of your goals this week! That is super awesome!! Way to know when to rearrange and manage you as well as tasks you need to get done. Also have tons of fun with your friend! As for things to do during downtime! I think coloring is a great idea! I know if helps me distress a lot and it’s something good to do if you need to think but want your hands busy. Maybe doing a puzzle as long as you are okay having it sit unfinished for a while which also takes space unless you buy a tiny puzzle that you can do quick and be done… Hmm maybe a light easy stretching routine? Or calming music… I will try to think of more and get back to you J

Apparently Weekends are hard for me... Will update later during work lunch

You are amazing!!! More serious post coming later!

Alright. I copied your post into word so I could break it down piece by piece. On my own time during the day here Response to @Severine's post: Response to Dagger's Response to Severine: Response to Daily Update: Sorry for the long post. I broke it into spoilers so it will be easier on others. Also sorry about the lack of quoting like i mentioned i did it in word and then when i copied it over i lost which places I wanted to quote.

Feelings are rarely logical which can be frustrating. Thank you so much for your kind words. I managed to go to the store yesterday late, but i got there so i can do better over the weekend. Then going to hit up Aldi for more produce next Tuesday. You guys seriously made me tear up. Thank you. Your right I need to care for myself in the day and not worry about yesterday. This pep talk helped a lot I may even print it and put it in my journal to look at from time to time. I need to remember that I am not super woman and that I don't have all the energy in the world. To borrow from your thread and @Severine's theory lately my backpack has been filled with things from SAD and sick and it hasn't left much room for much else. I need to remember that when i don't have room it is okay to cut back and manage things differently. I also love the kitty hug gif. Yesterday was tough. I was not in the fog i was Tuesday, but i also wasn't feeling better per say. Work went okay there were some things i was dealing with that made me have a short temper but i made it through. (See coworker seeing if i had free time just to unload a giant cut and paste project on me.) I managed to get to the store after work and pick up some food. Not a ton, but i will be shopping early next week as well. MY Hubby however, got us fast food for dinner and at that point i was just too exhausted to fight it so i ate it. It was okay and actually didn't put me too far over my calorie goal. After food and watching some AGDQ i had enough room/energy to do 2 rounds of body weight and that felt good. Also did some extra stretching afterwards. (I can feel both today in my legs.) Then after I watched more AGDQ and actually ended up falling asleep. When he went to bed my husband made sure i made it there too. Today while i can still feel the cold, i can tell i am doing better. @MichiruSedai and @Dagger you guys helped clear some of the crap from my backpack and if i could hug you in person i would, but for now i give you this.

I read what you wrote and and am processing it. Will post again later but for now all the hugs!

With the Date change i might be able to go if that's okay!

I agree you nee to focus on getting better and not stress your body to hard! I have been sick to so i am here with you! Way to rock the steps when you could!

Sorry guys. This cold had me in a fog yesterday. Also I am just feeling very disheartened. I feel my rpg story sucks and what I am trying to do sucks. I love the challenge @WritingWeaver but I just feel I haven’t had any major wins except those first too days. I mean this could be SAD talking or my anxiety or the cold but it is just how I feel. Let down in myself and all I have been doing. I feel like my challenge this time around is a joke and uninteresting. I also am in the mind set currently of just not seeing the point. Also I haven’t been able to go get groceries between sick and snow so I’m not eating super healthy and I don’t have many options. I’m just… disheartened.
