Poor you. It never rains but it pours. I can recommend Slimming World. The support and friendship of the consultant and fellow members has helped me control my weight these past 4/5 years. I’ve never lost weight on my own and it is one thing we do have control over when everything else has gone to pot. Hope you feel better tomorrow.
Sorry to hear about your dog passing.You have every right to feel down.Sometimes it seems that nothing good is happening in our life.I hope your husband's health is improving.I am sure after some rest you will feel a little better.Hope your renovations will be over soon.You certainly have had lot of upsets recently to contend with.
I’m so sorry to hear about your dear doggie passing , they give us so much love . I do hope your husband feels stronger and more well soon . Can you both get away for a few days away break ? Sending love x
Thanks everyone x just feeling a bit glum the past few days today is another day so wilPick myself up and dust myself off xx couple more weeks then I’m off for a few days so that will help xxx
Yep, think I’d be feeling overwhelmed too. Hope you managed a decent nights sleep. When I’ve felt like this, a friend of mine suggested making time during the day to just stop and focus on my breathing. Even for just 5 minutes can help. The other thing is at the end of day write down 3 positive things from your day. They can be anything. Small things, little wins, but it can help. Take care of yourself.
Oh so sorry. You are in a mess at the moment but when you face everything at the same time it becomes too difficult to deal with. I would suggest trying to compartmentalise the problems and deal with one at a time. Which order you do it in is down to you but firstly the weather, there is nothing you can do about that so forget that one. Work is something you have to do so you need to deal with the other things that are getting you down. If you are down you will eat more as a comfort but that in turn will make you feel far worse. Have you thought about keeping a food diary and counting calories or joining a slimming club on line. It doesn't take long on a diet before you start to settle in to it and you start to feel better. Remember, if you start today, it is the first day of your weight loss. Try to look at the positives rather than get bogged down. I know that is easy to say but you can do it. I know you can. Losing your dog is a big reason for your mood. It is heartbreaking when you lose a pet but it does get better. Maybe you could start thinking about getting another one. Your husband will be improving day by day and the renovations on the house will end at some point. There is light at the end of the tunnel. Don't sit there thinking about 'stuff,' go out for a walk if you are able or just stand in the garden and get fresh air and look at lovely things like flowers and birds. Each step is a positive one. I wish you all the very best.
What a lot you are coping with.Make a little time for yourself each day, even if it is only a few minutes and do something for you....10 minutes of solitude, a restful cup of tea, a stroll round your garden (if you have one). The benefits gained can be immense.
Omg you have so much going on , we are all listening to you and wishing you strength and support, it’s amazing how we cope with so much , however you need some support from family or friend , you need someone to off load to . you are stronger than you think .💪
Its awful so many things which are setbacks happening at once. But the sun is out today the daffodils are in full bloom, the tulips are awake and the bottom of the garden is awash with primroses under trees getting ready to blossom. Spring is here and I hope your husband is better and you're in a better place today. Our cat (now diabetic) has learnt to avoid us after her breakfast is put down. So sits under the coffee table looking cross. We're trying all sorts of enticements and we know it doesn't hurt as she doesn't make a sound when the injection goes in so is just making life difficult. So I'm really sorry about your dog; we get so much from our pets. x
Sorry to hear of the loss of your dog bet you really miss him. As they say it never rains but what it pours. I would think with all the stress in your life you would be losing some weight anyway. At present think it is not a good time to try to loose weight , set yourself a future date to restart weight loss , but not too far ahead. Hope you feel better soon, do lap up all this sunshine while you can . Hope work is not too stressful. I am sure your hubby will gradually improve but all the renovation ect must be taking its toll on both of you. Sounds like you could do with a DIY SOS rescue, and that short break from work . Take care
I'm sure it isn't but your life sounds crap and I don't think a few days off is going to improve things in the long run.Our bodies and minds are only designed to take so much and yours has almost reached the breaking point - understandably. I totally get why you are trying to hold everything together because we all do it. But there are other options, which you probably are too tired and too busy to see right now.
Please, go see your GP and take some time off as sick leave - that's what it's there for after all.
If your employer has a counselling service - sign up. It's always good to rant to someone in person and they help you to question everything and can come up with some brilliant ideas. Plus, it can be fun.
Then clear your mind of stuff, worries, fears, judgements etc Think about where you'd like to be in a year's time, visualise it, draw it, list it. It might take far longer than a year but does that matter? The journey there is part of the fun.
Finally, put yourself as a priority - be selfish! Not the house, your husband, your work or whatever else is demanding your attention. You matter the most to you. Treat yourself, treasure yourself and be kinder to yourself - I'm giving you permission!
What you are enduring at the moment is awful and this advice is totally based on what I would do if I were you right now, because I've been in the same kind of trap.
Just sending some sympathy, life sounds fairly grim right now and having a rant sometimes helps. Maybe talking all the rubbish through with someone you trust might help, or your GP if you can get an appointment. Dogs are part of our family so I can imagine how hard that has hit you. Try to find some time and space to do something that makes you happy. Xx
Pet, I'm sending positive thoughts and hope your husband makes a full recovery. This may sound harsh but I lost my beloved cat some months ago, I have no family and live alone. I have now got another cat from a rescue home but Jack is helping anfd growing in confidence.🐕🐕
Staffy, massive big hugs for you.Hey we were going to do this together weren't we, I've just put my biscuits back in the cupboard and picked up an apple instead xx
Sorry to hear all this staffy, and I'm very sorry to hear you lost your beloved dog. There's no words to make that one any better.😔
It sounds like you have been under immense stress for quite some time. It's very hard to focus on losing weight when you've got other serious things to be dealing with. Equally, I absolutely feel your frustration of it being one more thing over which you feel a loss of control.
I hope your husband's health will improve before too long. House renovations are a nightmare, but they will end. The loss of your dog will feel less raw with time, but you will always love and miss him/her. You are having a pretty crap time, but I hope better days are ahead. Then, you may well feel like getting to grips with your weight, and you will. Don't be too hard on yourself at the moment, and try and have a bit of a relax when you have those days off.
Oh my xx thank you all so much for your ideas and comments x they are truly appreciated x I had a better day today and am looking forward to the weekend x and yes Marionfromhappydays we so are doing this !! Haha that made me laugh xx thanks again all xx appreciated from the bottom of my heart xx
Tough times, sending good vibes your way and wishing you both the best. If you’re able to go to coast or forest or hills and breathe the fresh air for a lift of your spirits please do.
So sorry you've got so much rubbish stuff going on. I'm not surprised you're feeling overwhelmed. So very sorry about your beloved dog...the more we love and care for our pets the harder it is when they go.
I have (very slowly) been shedding some excess weight by banning biscuits, sweets etc from the house and setting things up so I only have fruit to snack on, other than our mealtimes. My o/h is struggling though and snacking on all the cheese in the fridge!
Anyway, sending love and virtual hugs , and wishing you sunshine. Xxxx
When it rains it does tend to pour; sounds like you need a good cry. The repair shop always helps me along when I need one; very cathartic. Spring is in the air .. try and go for a little walk in a park to see the flowers coming up, or a drive in the countryside to see some lambs. Nature always helps. Take care xx
I'm sorry to hear that you are really going through the mill. To lose your precious dog on top of everything else that you are having to deal with must be absolutely devastating. Just do your best regarding your weight and don't let worrying about it add to your current problems. Sending a big warm hug. God Bless you and your hubby, Knip.❤️
