Temptation Tuesday #4 - 2025 do I lose weight or buy bigger clothes?

 

If you read yesterday's post, you know I'm not buying bigger clothes. I am committed to getting my health back in check. I look at this picture and as much as I still love myself, and my role as a mom, I see a difference from a year ago. My face is fuller, There's so much roundness, and my wardrobe favorites no longer fit the way they should. 

I'm getting back to the basics: drinking the water, eating every few hours to fuel my metabolism (small healthy meals that is), exercising regularly, and getting enough rest. These are such basic principals of life, but so difficult for caregivers. 

In my case, something has got to give and as much as I enjoy a good trip to the thrift shop, I would much rather get healthier for my long term good and well being instead of shopping for new clothes and spending money on something I don't need.

That is all - my temptation was to go and pick up some new wardrobe essentials and wait another week or two to gain control of my health - and as tempting as it would be to enjoy some chocolates during February, I'm going to resist the temptation!

You Can Speak Your Mind, But Not On My Time?

Today's post title is inspired by the fabulous song that is likely going through your head right now "I still belong, don't get me wrong, you can speak your mind but not on my time...you can live your life, but this is my life..."etc... The topic however is inspired by a dear friend who recently said to me "why is it so hard for people to be real and have a conversation about things they disagree with?" I've been thinking about that queestion and the conversation that it inspired - what she was really talking about is feedback. Why is it so difficult to tell someone that you'd like them to do something differently? We beat around the bush, and sometimes never say what's on our mind. Isn't this really the rooot cause of relationship problems? The cause of dating mis-haps, family arguements, and the underlying issue that often results in anger and fighting? Before you answer, let me toss out some scenarios: 1) You're dating someone ...

Natural Remedies for Depression ?

Have you had those moments when you weren't feeling quite like yourself? Those negative thoughts were creeping in? clouding your judgment? making every day chores seem like amazing feats of heroism? If you've never felt like that - good for you! I on the other hand struggle with life's ups and downs. From depression during my divorce to post-partum depression, etc... I tend to be a very happy and optimistic person, but the flip side of that coin brings those days when staying in bed is more alluring than hopping in the shower and going through the motions of the day. There are some fabulous medications on the market today, and seeking the help of a healthcare professional is always a great idea. Sometimes I'm not feeling depressed, but I fear I'm headed there. I don't particularly care for some of the side effects of medications I have been on in the past, and a natural remedy can sometimes give me just the kick in the pants that I need to 'get happy...
