Weigh in (even though I’d rather not)

January 20th, 2010 | Comments | Posted in Crooked Eyebrow |

Well, I have no words other than I thought this week would be better and yet it is not. I need to do a total overhaul of my lifestyle. My stress level is through the roof, I have cried everyday, all day and I am not sleeping as well as I should be.

My first week back to work was rough and so was my diet. Exercise? no time.  I get up at 3:30 to get to work by 7:30.  I get home at 5:30 and collapse with the baby at 9:30.  I am spinning out of control and quite honestly this week’s gain is just so very frustrating.

I am trying, but I know deep down in my size 18 pants that it is not enough. Here is to hoping something gives, and let it be the scale next week.

 

Last week #207

This week #209

+2 pounds

    Wow !!! You have sooooooo much on your plate right now...I don't know how you manage it all. I hope you can get a handle on it soon. Take care of yourself and the rest will happen.
  • this has been a crazy week, definitely don't be so hard on yourself! you're still in survival mode. soon things will settle and you'll be able to find that time for yourself and everyone will be in a routine, just give it a little bit. and hang in there. so many *hugs*.

    So sorry it's been a tough week. It WILL get better. One way or another, it will get better. Cold comfort right now though, I know. Do what you can, but ease up on yourself a little. These first few weeks, maybe just try focusing on finding normalcy. Lots of hugs to you...
  • You know why it was, don't beat yourself up....you had a very emotional week...that would make anybody not see a loss, probably more than 2 lbs gained in my case.

    You will get used to this new schedule, just give yourself time and remember to keep focused on being healthy for you and Eden-don't push it!

    Oh Donya, I am near tears here because I remember how stressful it was to go back to work after Sophie was born. STRESS and tiredness and no time for anything. I so get it. Just do the best that you can for now and cut yourself a tiny bit of slack. HUGS
  • Hang in there. You have had the "mother" of all weeks. Don't get down on yourself. Since exercise doesn't seem to be in the cards right now, just focus on the food aspect of it. You are stressing your body with all the, well, stress, and so it doesn't want to change. Give yourself some time and don't be hard on yourself. There's a lot going on right now.

    i'm sorry i don't have any words of wisdom - no children here so i can't begin to imagine how difficult it must be. *hugs* just don't give up on yourself okay?
