Mood: Tired

Another tired day. I have a follow-up appointment with my doctor this week to see if we can figure this out. The fact that I’m not eating enough could be an issue, too. I’m just not hungry these days. Gotta find some calorie-dense foods to fill up my plate. Slowly, but surely, I’ll find a balance.

Mood: Tired

Another sleepy day.
My 17-year-old struggled with insomnia last night and I stayed up until 3 with her. Her anxiety and depression has been a little funky lately. I am going to do some major research this week about changes I can make in her diet that may help. As for me – my back, side, stomach pain is pretty bad. My ultrasound is tomorrow and should rule out liver, gallbladder or kidney as the culprit. I don’t know. All I do know is that I am wiped out. Still, I went for a walk today. I am redoubling my efforts to lose the weight before the warm weather arrives. Good luck to us all!

Mood: Okay

My food habits are all over the place. I need to really make an effort this week to plan my meals in advance. I am just eating according to my mood and that can end up being a problem in the long run.

Mood: Motivated

Today, I feel…good. Ate well today and planning my diet for the rest of the month. I am also planning my activities for the month. Walking, hiking, walking, hiking. I need it, want it, must have it. Just watched a documentary on the Appalachian Trail and I am ready to go!

Mood: Tired

New month, new habits. Okay, so I kind of forgot about this place, by the end of last month. I am attempting to make this a normal part of my day. I’m giving myself until Easter to turn this into a Don’t Think, Just Do It habit.
In other news, I have been incredibly tired recently and am awaiting some blood work to see what is wrong. The preliminary guess is something having to do with my kidneys. Bleh. I hope not.
