Weight Loss Journey - Week #5 (Feb. 22 - 28, 2015)
Hi!
So yeah last week was a very dark post and I apologize for that but I felt that it was something that I really need to hear. Sadly this week has proved to be no better, especially since I have been feeling sick nearly all week.
I don't know what's causing it at all. I can only think that it is the weather, which has been pretty crappy where I live this past week. I mean rain and cold nearly everyday. The days it didn't rain it was so cold and damp outside that no one could stand it. I really hope that our weather gets better and soon.
Sadly with the way I've been feeling and with the weather being like it was, I couldn't get out and walk like I really wanted to but I did change something of my everyday activities.
Since I stay at home all day, I'm pretty much on my computer for over 8 hours a day. Just sitting and doing nothing but surfing the web, watching YouTube and playing games. But this week I made it a point to take an hour or two to do something else and surprisingly it works. I started out reading a book for an hour one day and when I got tired of that I found a new hobby that I never thought I would enjoy again. Coloring. Yes you have read right, coloring has become my new favorite hobby to do. It keeps me busy, thus taking my mind off of food which is awesome.
Sadly however, my water intake for this week has been reduced to 20 oz a day which is not good at all. But with tomorrow starts a new day and I know that this next week I will get better at this.
I have also come to a decision that I will indeed be posting a before picture tomorrow (Sunday, March 1) in order to really encourage me to work out. Now I will go ahead and say that while comments are welcomed I will not tolerate name-calling on this blog. I get enough of that from my father but that is another topic for another day perhaps.
And now for this week's food diary, I only forgot to write one meal down and by the time I saw that I didn't write it down.

Even though this week was still bad, it was still better than the week I had last week. I really don't understand what happened last week but I am glad that I posted what I did. I think I needed to hear it and get it out of my system more than anyone else.
I do hope that this upcoming week is better in not only exercise and water intake but in all moods and feelings. This week I've felt so emotionally heavy that it seemed to just weigh heavily on me, emotionally and stress so to speak.
Until Next Week!
