Battling the FUNK...
The kinda depressed feeling, the Funk, is trying to creep it's way back in. I am holding on by my fingertips keeping it at bay. I don't want to be powerless against it and sink into the hole so I'm fighting. Even though I don't want to, I am. It's hard. Hubby doesn't get it. That doesn't help things. What does help? Exercise. Pushing myself to do things even when I don't want to. Mostly, if I get going, get started, I can push through and feel better. But it's a struggle. Food is my friend at these times. Food makes me feel better....but not for very long. After the first initial "feel good", I feel worse because I've just undone a part of the good thing I've been working so hard at. It's a vicious cycle. Yesterday had good parts and bad. Today I'm gritting my teeth and trying to push through. I haven't made any big food mistakes so far, but the thought is there.... wouldn't a candy bar taste good right now? I have a walk scheduled this evening with my sis-in-law. I'm getting things done around the house....slowly, but it's better than curling up on the couch or crawling back into bed. Guess I better get back to it...

Oh I totally understand that feeling. I actually just wrote about it....great minds huh? I hope you start to feel better really soon. And just remember, you have come so far and have so much to be proud of!
Ditto to what Sugar-Free Cupcake said. Totally understand the feeling. You CAN push through this. Hope the walk went well.
Push through.....just remember everyone is cheering for you!
So sorry you're feeling down. Have you considered stepping up the intensity of your workouts? I get a real lift from a good, hard work out that gets my heart rate up. Does your walk get your heart pumping?
