I’ve been having trouble coming up with posts recently… mostly because it’s just been a rough couple of weeks here! A huge problem I’ve been having with that though, is that I’m a ridiculous emotional eater. Lately, I have had a huge crush on Chocolate… and I mean, ANYTHING chocolate… and not just during that time of the month… Let’s just say, it’s been ALL MONTH! I need to get a hold of myself. When I first got down here to Orlando, I was working out really good, I was losing weight, eating right… The first 3 weeks went wonderful! My roommates even said I would be the roommate who would be most likely to run from the cops and get away haha. ‘running’ being the key word there – because I was always running. The past month though has emotionally, physically, and mentally spent me from work to personal to emotional, I’m exhausted! So I’ve been downing my sorrows in tons of chocolate! I’ve decided tonight (after downing a yoohoo in 5 seconds flat) that I needed to take charge and take better care of my body while I’m still young. So starting tomorrow now, I’m cutting back on the junk food, getting back to my jogs outside, and leading a healthier lifestyle, because honestly… I think I’m more depressed at what I’ve allowed myself to become while I was depressed. So I’m going to my notes, reading back up on fitness and self magazines, to help give me the push I need in the right direction. This is me letting all of my FABULOUS 40 followers know (wow… yeah, FORTY! I hit that over spring break and was ecstatic!) that I’m getting back to running, watching what I eat, having treats in moderation, and taking my health seriously because I want to live a long and happy life, I want to reach my 80’s, 90’s, and possibly even the big 100. And eating all this processed fatty chocolate and food isn’t going to get me there, it’s actually taking years off my life! So I encourage you too, if you’ve been having a rough time much like myself… if you’re sad to see what you’ve become because you’re an emotional eater too, choose now! Take control and make small changes to lead a happier and healthier life!
Thanks for enduring my emotional release today! Another goal is to get some good content on here… I know it’s been awful lately, my apologies!
i have had issues with this in the past as well… definitely trying to get on track with my health while i am young! good luck… i know you will do great 🙂
I need to really take control of my eating habits too. I have definitly gotten better, but I there is still room for improvement. I’ve got to stop eating when I am bored.
