A new lifestyle?

Sunday was a two star day
I know I am getting this out a day late, but Monday was a go-go-go day, and I barely sat down until about 6pm. My in-laws that come into town for the big fireworks show weren’t leaving until this morning since it ran so late. I was super tired, and actually took two naps. I took a longer one in the morning, and then at about 4pm for like ½ hour.

I decided to seriously loose weight on Sunday, and have made agreements for rewards for accomplishments. If I work out every day this week, I get to go out to dinner at the restaurant of my choice. I have also started taking Dexatrim to give me a little help. I actually started on Saturday, and it seemed to work, so I will continue for now. My preferred methods of exercise will be swimming, and then walking. If those can not be done, I will do some of the classes at the YMCA and ride the stationary bike.

I got the usual Sunday night depression, and it was in some ways worse than it has been in other weeks. Something that was probably adding to all this was the fact that my daughter was starting kindergarten the next morning. Daughter has been stressed about it, and keeps saying that she is scared. I’m sure once she gets there and meets some kids, she will better. She just doesn’t like going into something new not knowing anyone at all, and I don’t blame her for it. It won’t be long until she is the usual social butterfly that she usually is.

My day was up and down, and being tired increases the frequency and depth of the depression side. At times, I was also feeling anxious. When I'm like this, I just give into the sleepiness and hope things are better when I awake.
