snowy monday.

All around a good day. I woke up a bit depressed but still got myself to the gym. I didnt enjoy yoga the way I usually do due to my mood but realized that I would have felt worse if I did not go so that's a plus. I did some cardio after that and finished The Help. 1 book down, 49 to go (for the year of 2011). I had therapy and let's just say weight exposure is not fun. It isnt a fun experience hearing your weight in a room with your therapist and her intern. I love them both but it's just...shaming for me. Somehow when talking about my weight and the thoughts that came up, we got to my childhood so I am seeing where the weight manipulation is coming into play.

I stopped by Half Price Books and dont even remember the name of the book I got. That reminds me, I also have to order my Fairburn book for CBT-E. Just what I want to spend my money on. I do know once I read it, it will be interesting. I need to get on that before L kicks my ass for not having it.

I met up with Sam and Molly at Caribou for $1 dark roast medium Mondays :) Sat and talked for about and hour and then I went out into the snow and got ingredients for soup (beans, sweet potato, carrot, lime, onion, garlic, tomatoes..) I also got spinach for a salad. A came over and helped me cook and picked up Easy A on the way because I wanted to see it. It got such praise by peers and I didnt find it all that great.

Peter left today for the Army. Im sad. I am going to miss him a lot and I just get so scared. I know the odds are in his favor. More people survive in the Army than pass away but it is a very scary time and sad for all of us.

Tomorrow I have an appt, then meeting Bobbi for coffee and Ill probably go to the gym around that time.

Things I am not looking forward to, but need to do:
-fold laundry and do another load
-buy Fairburn book

My stomach hurts...fuck you sucralose.

  1. Weight exposure..I've never heard of that. Is it part of CBT-E? I can see how it would be helpful from an outsiders perspective, but in the moment personal experience? Ahhhh..
    Remember Jo, you are your harshest critic. No one is judging you to the extent that you are.
    Trust.
