I’ve been struggling with depression a little this last week, I don’t feel like looking pretty, I don’t want to go anywhere and I don’t want to clean the living room for the 100th day in a row. I also missed out on seeing my best friend last week and I think I miss her, I’m seeing her tomorrow though so that is good.
Spent some time over at MMSL forums tonight, I like reading about all the drama in their marriages and there’s some good advice going right now about how to give amazing handjobs! We all struggle in some way or another, I usually have trouble relating to them because they mostly complain about not getting enough sex, and my marriage problems really don’t have much to do with sex. Sex is the one thing we’ve got figured out, it’s all the rest that is a jumble sometimes; although I shouldn’t complain, I’m really happy right now with our marriage.
My exercising has been going well, but not my eating. I’ve been exercising in the mornings and it makes me not hungry, so I skip breakfast which does horrible things to the rest of my day. I’m going to have to make myself eat breakfast whether I’m hungry or not just so the day will go smoothly. Also, I need to stop baking which is sooooo hard in the fall. I think fall and I think apples and pumpkins, oh well, I’ll just have to start thinking leaves and hikes instead.
“To escape her depression, she needs to turn this statement into reality: Action cures fear, regret, guilt, and depression, so just get started. (And what action, you ask? Anything that gets her up, prettified, and energized to go somewhere or do something. Anything that makes her mingle with others and minimize her self-centeredness overly enlarged by craving to restore her youth. If she’s already doing all those things, then do more. Women can live with guilt, but they must control things in their lives to avoid or escape depression.)” Sir Guy from WWNH

I love to bake too, especially cheesecakes! There is a way to fulfill the need to bake and not eat it (or have it hanging around). I donate my baked goods to the mental health centre in our town.
That is such a good idea, I don’t know if I’d be able to part with the goods after smelling them bake.
humorous option to fight temptation: hang your skinny jeans in the kitchen.
not so humorous option to fight temptation: when our men are tempted to “eat” visually, (and they are just saturated in this temptation everyday) they must fight it, not just for themselves, but also for us. when i’m tempted to “eat” not-visually (otherwise – whatever that temptation might be for me – in this case eating and making myself a bit too ‘voluptuous’ – i think of my man; and if he can do it for me, than i can do it for him.
that just might work…
