Serious

This is about life.

March 5, 2012

Get ready, deep thoughts ahead... The past several weeks, I've hobbled through the doors of the physical therapist and done exercises that shouldn't be hard for me. I'm trying to gain strength and reduce pain from my ankle injury. The extra time on my rear end has left me thinking, which is always dangerous for me ...

Find Your Fill Elsewhere

December 8, 2011

My history with binge eating is long, sordid, and something that I never acknowledged until a couple of years ago. I just thought I ate a lot - I never took the time to identify that I was using food to feel better emotionally, while making me worse off physically. The last 2 days, I made ...

Lightbulb from Richard Simmons

09.22.2011

This week has been insanity for me, and I’m so ready for the weekend! I read this article earlier in the week and bookmarked it to share here because I read it with tears going down my face (and not wearing waterproof mascara- mistake). It is from Richard Simmons. I don’t care if you think …

You Are Never Alone (Mental Matters, Part 2)

09.04.2011

I’ve had a draft post started as an update to my last “Mental Matters” post where I talked about my history of depression, anxiety and plan of seeking more assistance for it. It’s languished in my “drafts” folder for two weeks as I simply didn’t want to write anymore about having depression. It’s painful to …

(Some might call it oversharing, I call it transparent). I suppose it could be like the bubble boy, only the bubble blogger, …

Out of Hiding

07.13.2011

I’m a recovering food hider. In my former fat life, I would go through a drive-thru and pick up enough food to feed a family of 4. Literally. You know how it seems impossible to go to Taco Hell and eat more than $5 worth of tacos? I could throw down $15 there, easily. I would …

Email for the Soul

06.16.2011

Thank you to Yahoo! Mail for sponsoring this post about staying connected. I was selected for this sponsorship by the Clever Girls Collective, which endorses Blog With Integrity, as I do. I’ve been slightly emotional lately. Not bad emotional, just a little bit nostalgic. I’ve gotten some really amazing, kind words written and spoken to me …

What Support Means to Me

04.19.2011

The past couple of months have been difficult along this personal weight loss and fitness journey. Between dealing with pain during training, completing a half-marathon and turning 30 during a bout of the post-race blues, at times it has felt like a losing battle. What has been the difference in turning that losing battle into a …
