Broken

When I talk about my life it always seems like I come back to that word, cracked, broken, incomplete.. What does it mean to be broken? When I try to relate to other people I find it very difficult. I hide things about the way I think and feel because I know that they they will not understand or worse they may judge me. Lately I feel so isolated in my own thoughts. There is a real lonliness in that, especially since I am someone who yearns for openness.
Food does not judge me. When I eat I am comforted in a way that I am not by the people in my life.

Maybe you should start writing your thoughts down in a diary... I think ik helps to spill it all out (well, it helps me).
Don't find comfort in food, it will make you feel more miserable in the end.
Have you ever thought of some powerwalking? I realise it might sound stupid but a friend of mine used to do that for a half hour before she started her workday to list all the points. It helped her a lot (AND it was good for her figure :)

As someone who's been where you are, I really think you need to find someone professional to talk to about how you're feeling. Certainly writing your feelings down is helpful, but a therapist will give you ideas about how to feel better and that's what you need, my dear.

I understand where you are coming from.

I still look forward to seeing you post. I check in almost everyday:)

I thoroughly understand! I feel the same way from time to time. If you want to do a diary but have no one read it...do a new blog that is password protected and just don't give anyone the password. Do it for you! One nice thing about this is no one will be judging you and unlike food, it will not harm you. Another nice thing is...you can go back and read from the beginning whenever you want and a funny thing happens when you do that...you realize that you are growing and don't feel that way anymore. Good luck on whatever you decide to do. I will be praying for you!

I'm so glad to see you're back here blogging... please don't go. I can totally understand the feeling of being broken. I fight with that feeling myself, a lot.

I'd do what jus me recommends - write your feelings down. In a diary, online (password protected), start another anonymous blog and write it down.

Maybe seeing someone might help - who's trained to help people with these sorts of feelings. I know it really helped me.

*hugs*

Grrr...
I stopped reading your blog just after you started seeing the therapist. I thought that this time when I check back in, things would be different. Apparently not!
I've read the comments from your friends & there seems to be a theme... Take positive steps to move forward!!
The power of the mind to heal the body is beyond belief.
Please try. I'll check back with you soon

Starting over

Hmm. Starting over is never easy. I'm on a new journey this time. I want to do this for different reasons. I want to do it for me. This week has been an okay one food wise, but I haven't been walking. I have had to suffer rain, but we needed it so it is hard to be mad about it. I know I may have lost a tiny bit of weight, but probably not much. Will weigh myself tomorrow. I had a few too many drinks still. BUT I swear I am trying! It is hard right now. I want to go to the doctor and request some weight-loss drugs. I don't think my doctor will give me them, and I know it is a weak way out, but I want the help. So don't judge me! Thanks so much for the support lately. Even the few of you who still check to see if I am around, your words mean a lot to me.

Do you want what you can't have?

On the way home from work I saw a girl with the figure I want, but will never have. She was young; I think probably around 16 or 17. She was tall with lean legs and she was wearing a pair of trendy short shorts with a t-shirt. She also had amazingly perfect large breasts. I admittedly stared for a moment at her because she didn't have one single blemish. She is so beautiful. I couldn't stop myself from thinking about how I will never be that thin, I will probably never wear short shorts, and I definitely will never have those boobs. I wish I didn't look longingly at the things other people have and envy them, but I do. But I don't think I am the only one.

Tweaking

So I've done some tweaking to the code. I now think it looks better in Firefox than IE because IE is not recognising the best font. It is too late right now for me to concern myself with this. At least most of us can actually read it. Also I have to create a new weight chart that is compatible with this design. Thanks a lot for the input. Firefox users, is it better now?
