4 days later... and still struggling

[Guest guest]

I thought maybe posting would somehow get me back on track. And I especially

thought so when I sat reading your responses (all of which were very

uplifting and filled with great advice) but that has not been the case.

During these last 4 days it has been just as bad as before. Nothing has

changed.

Work is still so stressful.

I am still eating things that are terrible for me. Ben and Jerry's ice

cream!!! A pint!!!

I am still not taking all my vitamins like I should. Can't seem to make it

to the store to buy the new ones the doctor wants me to take.

I am still not exercising the way I should.

I miss the old se. A lot. I don't know what's happened to her.

I am going to the gym tonight and staying until I am covered with sweat. It

is like the only thing I can think of doing to relieve the intense stress I

am feeling.

And I now have a cold.
