hi all
not really looking for help just wanted to moan. living with this **** and mh sucks. I know i could be worse off but since feb wheels have been off the bus. diet control just about out the window,exercise has gone from cycling 10 miles one day walking the next ,to zero. i guess i have forgotten how to juggle. no job = no money, no interest in life = bad self care. the only good thing is no smoking for ten mth i have put on a little wieght a stone, guess i have still lost 5. My partner never seems to listern re food though she is quick to moan if i booze too much. now the good bits. i am still living, i can still see, i can still walk, have all my fingers and toes.still have a chance to get life back in control and to change. guess i better pick up those balls again but which one first. I remember a story of an acient wise man .
" ah I have a very long journey to make, how can i face it? how can i start? now lets see, if i step forward by a small amount my journey is shorter, if i enjoy what i can, like the birds singing the sunny days i will forgrt the passing of some foot steps.when bad weather comes i will rest and shelter and remember the times it was sunny. When i find a mountain i will go around it and not try to go through it or over it,there is no time limit to my journey "and on he went.thinking of ways life could be made easier. If he was british he would still be in the house wondering when it would be dry enough to take the firs step
still dont know were to begin but i guess life is life
 
Sounds like you know what to do, mate.

I like the wise man's story.

For me, when I go off the rails, it's just a case of making sure that I get rid of all the food in the cupboards that I know I shouldn't have. Get rid of ALL temptation.

If you're out of work, this might be a bit of a problem... (Food ain't cheap!)

For me, I just have to go at it HARD for 2 or 3 days to get me back on track. This means ONLY eating meat/fish and eggs (I treat myself to a mixed grill on day 3!). Easy to maintain for 3 days, and the boost it gives once you've burned up those residual carbs is enough to give you the motivation to carry on.

Look at those first 2 or 3 days as "the first steps". :wink:

We al know it's not easy when you're feeling a little down. Best of luck to you.
 
yes i know i gotta get some excercise starting today. im going to try and persuade my wife to have a look on here to see the risks etc maybe then she might believe me and what i say about risks etc
 
Bob,

Life has its little twists and turns and we all get fed-up at times but as you have stated the positives far exceed the negative and this is what keeps us going, just think back to before February when you felt good being much fitter and healthier and this should be motivation enough tho get you started again. Good luck!

Nigel
