6 Years, Really???

-
Has it really been six years since I started this blog? Six years of struggling off and on with my anxiety and depression, unhealthy eating and then getting back on the wagon. Well, six years later I now have a granddaughter that I must become healthy for. If not for myself, then I have to get healthy so I can live to see her accomplishments through life. So, this week, I start again. I found my new mantra: Jump in, commit, just do it! That second word...commit..man, is that a difficult word to say. It is one that makes my heart race, shoots my anxiety up, and makes me question whether I'm doing the right thing. I didn't have this much trouble committing to marrying my husband! LOL I love my sugar and carbs, my pastas, breads, Starbucks...but I love my family more. I must commit for my family. So, how am I going to do it this time? Keto on, baby! I started today, but faltered some because of food we had in the house. Had it not been for the sweets in the house (and Starbuck...

A Long Road

A Long Road Ahead I have so many things running through my mind that I'm not even sure where to start. I still struggle with losing weight. I spent almost a year with daily migraines--they started out of the blue and went away out of the blue. Still not sure what happened there, but I have a feeling it had something to do with the cortisone shots I was receiving in my back to help with the chronic pain I experienced there. With all of the pain over the past five years, I have not improved my eating habits--junk food became my go-to for helping me deal with the pain. I also have not been able to exercise like I want to.  On December 30, 2019, I went in to have my L5-S1 fused once again (the first fusion from five years ago never completely fused). This surgery was more extensive with removing the metal cage that was not fused, placing a new device in that space, adding bone taken from my hip to help with bone growth, and replacing the screws in my back. I am almost 5 week...

A Rough Day

-
A Rough Day Today has been a rough day. As my recovery from surgery drags on, I have more energy but nothing to expend that energy on. I can't clean. I can't decorate. I can't fold alllllll of my clothes that are on my new-to-me round chair and then put them away. All I can do is sit here and look at the chaos around me. I would go work out, but I can't. I don't know where my tennis shoes are and have looked to the best of my ability. It will take digging further into my closet or looking under the bed to find them, I think. So, I think of all these things I can't do, try to stay positive about the things I can do, but today the toll has taken its place on me mentally. I have discovered that while I may be an introvert, I am also definitely an extrovert. I believe my daughter called this an ambiavert (or something like that). I have limited human contact. I'm asleep when my husband leaves and then he doesn't get home until around 6 or so. Then he ...
