How a 30 Something Girl is dealing with everyday Life and Infertility

I'm learning who I am, my battle with Infertility and other everyday ramblings.

Starting Anew

This month has been bad, I mean very bad.

The family stress totally got to me and I gained almost 5 Lbs. After all that work that I did to get if off and then in the snap of my fingers its back on. I can feel the deep pit of depression crawling back.

So I need to shake myself up. Time to wake up and smell that coffee
(this time without the huge pour of flavored creamer and sugar)


I realised that I often go: Well... it's almost "insert month/day here" so I'll start next month or next Monday, ect, ect. I don't have to wait for a certain day to start I can do that right now!

So tonight instead of munchin out on crappy foods I had a huge salad and a chicken boob for dinner I also had 2 cups of water with it! I so wanted a glass of Sprite or even the dreaded Coke, but I haven't really drank pop in a while now so that's kinda weird for me.

What I have been doing is eating chocolate bars. My Mother in law sent us home with like 10. The other day I asked my hubby to get me one from the fridge and he was like:
" There are ONLY 2 LEFT??? Where did they all go??"
He just looked at me cause I have been saying how much I want to loose weight, did that stop me from eating that chocolate bar that night, nope. As I finished off the last bar tonight I realised when I was eating it that I don't even taste it. Like it doesn't taste like chocolate to me. Why was I eating it when it didn't even taste good???

I'm going to try my best to track my food. I might not get down the calories but at least writing down what I had to eat and the approx size will be a start. I'm going to start using my SparkPeople account again.

I'm even going to ask Hubby to cook a healthy Birthday dinner for me!

Today is the day I start making small steps to get me to where I want to be!!

Feeling Drained and Hurt

Why?

Why do people just stop talking to me?

I'm left wondering what the heck I did to piss them off, not to mention I'm left hurting.

I can't get this out of my mind. I mean I don't have very many friends to begin with so losing what I thought was one of my closest friends, my maid of honor, is killing me. I don't know what I did, or if I even did something!

I don't know if I should step back and just wait and let this person tell me when they are ready or if I should keep bugging them until I get them to tell me what's going on.

Add to the fact that I was on the island for a week dealing with family stuff I feel so drained.

My mom was asked to take some time off work because she was stressing out, due to the fact that my brother kept calling and bugging her. My mom asked if I could come over to the island and run interference between her and my brother. My mom never asks for help, so this was big time. Of Course I went over to help her out. My brother carries so much negative energy. When I am around him I feel like I am walking on egg shells, I feel like I'm 12 again, trying not to set off my father. I was trying to be strong for my mom and supportive for my brother. I don't know if I could do that again.

Again feeling drained... :(
