Sorry, I know that I've been MIA for awhile - with the start of school/work, I've been in a funk and that has most definitely affected my game plan. I don't like the job I have, which I took after getting laid off from the worlds most perfect job for a working Mom, but this year I especially hate what I'm doing (after a great year last year). So, I've been wallowing for awhile. I took this job in hopes that it would lead to an office position, but I don't think that will ever happen and I think it's time to look for something else - but, then that brings up all sorts of issues, like I don't want to work full time yet and what do I about the summer and school breaks? So, do I just deal with being bored, miserable and making no money because it's better for Con in the long run? I don't know. But, I hate dreading going to work, I hate people watching me to make sure PA stuff doesn't interfere with my job (which it always does) and losing the flexibility I had last year IF PA stuff did interfere. 180 days of work doesn't sound like a lot, but it is when you are unhappy.... So, I've been depressed and miserable and that has equalled not watching what I've been eating and no walking. I don't know what to do about facing a miserable year, but I do know that sabotaging my own plan isn't really productive.
So, moving on - time to get back on track. But, where the heck is everyone else? No updates, no reports, no weigh in's....hello???? Ka', how have you been doing - and where is your victory post about your shopping experience? Laurie - weigh in? How are you doing?? Jess - have you gotten started with South Beach yet? Any weigh in's??
C'mon, post - share- encourage!!! Let's go! Hmmm....we should meet to walk, too, especially now that it's supposed to cool off....we could always go to track one night, right???
As Conor used to say "How you doin'?" :) Let's motivate!!
Quote "If you do what you've always done, you'll get what you've always gotten"
So, unless this is the best you want, it's time to shake it up! :)
Yes, I am still here.......haven't been good about eating so my solution is to avoid the scale! Not smart I know. I am going to go into the gym before work tomorrow (and hopefully a new routine of 3 days a week) and that will turn things around for me. I promise myself and my blog buddies I will weigh in on Friday and see what the nasty results are! Good or bad I will let you know!!!
ReplyDeleteHey, know that you're not alone. This time of year is hectic for me as well and I definitely can understand not liking your job. I begrudgingly returned to my teaching job this year mostly because it was the right thing to do for now, but up until the very last day of my vacation, I let myself believe that I could change my mind. I DREADED going back. Things are better this week, but I think it's mostly because I'm too busy to think about it too much. Hang in there! You can do it!
