I feel let down!

[Lacey Elliseal 21]

Hi guys. Just sharing my feelings. Could use some encouragement. My problem is that there was such a huge build up to the surgery, the waiting the awful diet the nerves and excitement the worry! But now it's over and I'm fine, I'm in mild pain and everything burns going down but I feel so blah. Like so what big deal it's over, now what?! I'm disabled because of Migraines so there is no job to go back to and there is still 3 feet of snow on the ground so where I'm I going to walk? I'm a single mom and can't do the gym thing right now. I feel alone and depressed and I miss my old friend food, it always made me happy.

You have to create new habits. Shoveling snow, pain in the butt though it may be is a good exercise. Going for a walking, even a short 15 minute walk is exercise when you are drudging through snow. Get some videos, check youtube or On Demand if you have cable and work out at home. Learn to knit/crotchet/sew. Read a book. Start a blog. You need to figure out a new normal for you. Take a class online. This is the time to learn how to live a life where food is not your only friend. The sky is the limit.

Thank you for your ideas, positive thinking helps me soooo much.
