Getting better

Something happened this morning. It seems like I was fed up with being depressed. So I dragged my ass off the couch and started cleaning. And organizing.

I dunno what happened, but I cleaned, did laundry, went out to buy batteries for the SCALE (so no more excuses to not weigh-in) and for the POLAR heart rate watch-thingy that I borrowed from a friend yesterday.

According to it, I have burned 2483 calories in the past 8 hours. Sounds good. Should be well below my intake.

Most importantly I have started facing my biggest demon which is (was) the huge pile of papers that required organizing. I am proud to say that I am at least half way through!!!!

Not only have I cleaned and burned quite some calories doing that, I also stayed on plan with my eating. For the first time in ages - so I can still do it. I am capable. I CAN DO THIS.

Despite all the shit that is going on in my life right now, I proved to myself that I can still do it.

Over the last couple of weeks I have also managed to get myself into therapy - I have taken all necessary steps, (and it's amazingly difficult in this country) and it will take some more time until I can actually start, but I did it!

Moreover I will also start seeing a dietitian soon.

I have a ton of reasons to complain - but I am gonna skip this part for now, and focus on my achievements despite a difficult situation.

It will get better! No - it IS getting better!
