I’m in quarantine alone. I’m so well stocked in my refrigerator that I can barely shut the doors.
I’ve tore up every room in my house trying to organize and simplify. I’m ordering from Amazon all the time. Recently a leaf blower and 4 lace panties that were suppose to have control top for my belly! I can’t fit in to them because I’ve been cooking and eating all the time. Last night at 12:00 I ironed my pillow cases. I brought yoga Matt’s and weights into my living room and found a beginners workout on my tv on utube. I put it on and sat watching it on my couch while I ate.
I cried myself to sleep last night as I miss my family. My youngest boy is a firefighter and oldest works in over 22 hospitals in CA. I’m not helping anyone or myself. I’m so sad for everyone.
I’m a wedding and event photographer. My little dog is 18 years is dying and there is more but.... time to get up and out my big boy pants on.

I feel your pain. I'm itching for things to get back to normal. I've had to cancel appointments, delay errands, shop multiple stores in one day to stock up, cook every night instead of eating out. I'm exhausted. I'm blessed that I'm still working full time, but this has been stressful.
Im sure your beautiful, curvy women are beautiful so I wouldn't worry about trying to be stick thin, cook and eat good food, I think people with a good sense of humour and can make you laugh are more attractive personally , I've been doing the body coach workouts there really good and really give me a boost, if you feel like talking one on one please do, try to be kind to yourself when your struggling, I attack myself a lot for various reasons and I really don't like seeing people beating themselves up, we have enough people to do that for us without doing it to ourselves, xxxx
hi Shelley,so sad to hear how distressed you are feeling;things will start to improve slowly but surely;make every little thing you as an achievment,and try not to get to overwhelmed at the news ect !MY heart goe out to you feeling so isolated .as i am too along with millions of others -stay strong and life wont seem so cruel.
Hi Shelley, I'm so sorry to hear how down you are but don't beat yourself up about it. Everyone is allowed to feel anxious and confused during this. If food makes you happy, then keep cooking!
I get that isolating feels like you're not helping and it does seem very counter-intuitive but its one of the biggest things we can all do to help so we shouldn't feel bad about it. Keep coming back here and there will always people to listen
It's not nice is it when loneliness strikes you and it's always the way isn't it how these horrible things come all at the same time as well.
I admit I was angry when all this kicked off over having to cancel things and having everything disrupted and when I had a think about what it was that upset me was to do with not liking being disrupted and uncertainty but over time I have come to terms with it as one of those things in life thats beyond my control and no amount of frustration will change it so decided I wasn't upsetting myself over something beyond my control and that I can't change.
Everyone gets times when they comfort eat no matter what the circumstances are but it's done now but next time you feel like eating ask yourself what is it that upsets you and why and if you really are hungry then eat otherwise no.
I'm sure you are doing the best you can given the current circumstances as I am myself and as long as you know in your heart you are doing your very best then that's all that matters.
Best of luck to you!
Do Yoga With Adriene on YouTube. You will feel better. Everyone here is losing their minds, not sure if it would be better to be alone or dealing with all their stress too? Order the correct size of lace panties silly. I hear what you are saying, this is a very trying time for everyone. I wish people would post movie suggestions.
