Keto Day 23

Still on plan. But my mood is terrible. I'm sure it's from my period. But it's hard to tell. So many real things bothering me. The neighbor shit, some people at office. I try to remind myself it's just PMS making everything seem worse.

But good example of weathering the storm, staying OP through good days and bad days. I want this better life. I wish Carl was going on this journey with me but as I continue, I will keep showing him a good example that I hope will inspire him. 

I've been low energy still. And had stomach problems. But I need to start working out. I know it's mostly how I eat but working out will boost my mood and inspire me even further.

I really want to shake this terrible mood. I took my antidepressant. But sometimes periods are hell.

It's been so long since I was at a trim weight. Seems so distant, hard to remember at all.

I know a lot of the negativity I feel about myself is caught up in this weight. That as the weight falls off I will release more and more negativity.

Goals: Why Even Bother?

Sometimes the question is not "Why do I want to accomplish this goal"?  Sometimes it's more like "Why shouldn't I just do whatever I feel like doing? Why do I want to bother myself with goals when I could just be relaxing instead?" You might then ask yourself, if I forget the goal what do I miss out on?  Am I ok with that?  Will I have regrets one day?  Which will cause me more stress - abandoning the goal or following through on it? What will my life look like next week, next month, next year if I do/don't accomplish the goal?  Sometimes when it's the desire for accomplishment that falters, it's the fear of loss that keeps you going. 

The Ogre

By Joseph Jacobs John Dickson Batten [Public domain], via Wikimedia Commons Shelley and I were friends almost immediately.  However her father did not like me.  The only reason I can imagine is that my family was too poor for him and that he did not consider me fit to be around his daughter.  Despite how her father felt about me, the moments when he was away at work as a lawyer, and when Shelley and I were together were the thrill of my life.  We did everything for fun, it seemed like there was nothing we couldn't do, no fun that we couldn't have.    Her house was an entire wonderland within itself.  An enormous granite-walled mansion, there were four floors of enchanting adventure for us.  The first floor held a kitchen where we made all kinds of goodies, an adjacent playroom where we played house, Barbie, watched "It's A Living," "Silver Spoons," "Small Wonder," "Dukes of Hazzard," "Laverne & Shirley," two mag...
