All day yesterday I was on the couch, eating kettlecorn, watching Netflix and essentially doing very little (and I mean it when I say, very little). I was mad at myself last night so I ate right before bed. My brain knows this won’t help. But the part of my brain THAT WON the battle… Continue reading Weight Management Struggles Cont.

My “I Don’t Want to Go” Letter for YOU
Hello Lovely Friends. I was mindlessly venturing around on Facebook when I stumbled upon a post that caught my eye. My friend shared a link and the caption is “‘I’m 27. I Don’t Want to Go. I Love My Life’ Heartbreaking Letter Written by Young Woman Dying of Cancer”. It may catch your attention too… Continue reading My “I Don’t Want to Go” Letter for YOU
Dear 2018 Self:
Don’t get worked up over things you can’t change. Similarly, you cannot change others and it isn’t worth the anger, energy, or headache to try. Control only what you can. Let go. Let it be. Smile often. Cry when needed even if it is in public. Don’t engage in unhealthy situations that will be a… Continue reading Dear 2018 Self:

My issue now is that I’m flirting with that fine line… Continue reading Permanent-Mindlessness-Distraction?

On Nov 5th, 2017 I wrote a blog about how I have lost 36lbs since my life spiraled down in a direction that left me isolated, alone on my couch with nothing more than boxes of saltine crackers, tubs of frosting, a phone charger, Family Guy, and my comfort blanket. I gained 50lbs during that… Continue reading 42
2017 Reflections
This time last year I was curled on the couch, four days since my last shower, pills in hands reach, with nothing more than suicidal ideations that were strong enough to zone out the tv volume of four, Family Guy. I wouldn’t get the “correct” medication until May tenth. Leaving approximately 126 days of sorrow… Continue reading 2017 Reflections
