Can’t sleep

It has been a great and crappy day.  Don’t you just love those?  Of course we do.  They make us stronger and stronger.  That is what we want to do, become oxen!  Right.  So anyways, it has been one of those stressful nights which shocked the you know what out of me, because I was in a great mood.  Anyways, after a little Thing with the Mister I am happy to say, I am not heading for the fridge or cupboard.  It has been a fabulous day and I will not mess it up by comforting myself with food.  Nope that is what Buddyslim is for and old re-runs of comedy shows at 1 AM.  Anyways, work and studying will not be so fabulous if I do not try again to go to sleep.  Here goes.  I just needed to come here and share.  It really has been hard lately.  I am not into details, but I just have really needed my wonderful buddies.  I am not looking for anything other then to know that we all are in this.  We keep going no matter what.  Even if it is a few steps back, we keep going forward…….   Hugs to you!

    Well done for staying strong and committed even when life doesn’t go to plan. You can always catch up with your sleep in the weekend.

    I hate those bouts of sleeplessness..I am going to attempt to take new pics of the kittens this weekend…they learned to climb up and over the baby gate and come down the stairs (which I could have seen that, it was probably more like fall, get up, fall down another step, at least they’re carpeted) so there is no keeping them in one room anymore so getting a pic of them together is going to be hard. Hope you have a good day and a beautiful weekend.

    Hi Jen,
    Sorry you felt down. Isn’t it great to have a loving partner though?

    Email me if you need to.

    In your corner,

    Tatiana

    Yes Jenn, we are all in this and I’m sure many of us have those sleepless nights that drive us crazy. I hope you find peace with the challenge your are facing right now but as I have learned (much to my chagrin) that once you deal with that one, another one comes along. But you’re right in keeping away from the fridge since the only thing we really have control over are our reactions. I’m with Tatiana - email me if you need to - whatever I can to help…..

    No details needed, but please know that I am an e-mail away! Or a phone call away for that matter. We have to remember that we are not alone in our battles, be it weight loss or LIFE in general. If you don’t believe me, take a quick look at the membership of buddyslim…we ALL struggle, day in and day out. Hang in there and don’t forget, that you have made some wonderful friends who are eager to return the favor—-give you guidance or perhaps a shoulder to lean on, the way you have done for us at one time or another!
