In the last few hours, today has turned grey. I’m just not in a good place. I completely understand that it is hormonal, but that’s not helping me feel better. So I’m going to remind myself why I am happy. And you get to hear about it too!
- I weighed myself this morning. After four days at home – out of my kitchen, outside of my comfort zone – I gained 8/10s of a pound. That gain wouldn’t be atypical in a week that had a single meal out or even a really hard workout. I am so proud of that!
- I had to go buy new bras today because I’m shrinking out of them. I’m almost where I was in college.
- I am sore from the gym workout with my mom. That shows that I worked hard, right? I went to run today, but the soreness in my shoulders and chest was just too much. I ran for 3 minutes. Instead of turning around and going home, I walked for 45 minutes.
- We have our Christmas tree!
- I’m fixing Marie‘s Cabbage Roll Soup for dinner.
- After dinner, I’m gonna turn on some Christmas music and do yoga with only the light of the Christmas tree.
- I have a great husband. Patient, kind, handsome. Did I mention patient?
And tomorrow will be better! Even if I do have to go back to work. (Ohhh, maybe that’s part of the problem too…)

Sorry things have turned gray for you this afternoon. Keep your head up, and be proud and happy of all those things you listed. I’m also feeling down knowing a hard week of work is ahead, but I need to get over it! LOL.
Oh man, that is exactly how I felt yesterday! I just woke up in this black, gloomy mood and let my day spiral out of control. I, too, did some yoga in the evening and I felt much better!
Hormonal as in PMS? Have you tried any liver support, or supplementing with a little (natural) progesterone?
