How much weight does lugging around an ex add???
Looks like I’m carrying around more than some extra weight. I re-read last night’s post - sounding like I have some anger issues? How much does emotional baggage weigh? I did not know I was that pissed - still. I’m going to make an appointment with our workplace counselor, Marie. She’s helped me iron out issues before - she’s a pretty quick fixer - no need to delve into childhood stuff or any of that other junk. Just problem, solution. Plus she’s thru employee health, so it’s free!! & I’m cheap!! Just need some help figuring out what to do with that residual ick that I’m not shaking off - stuff my feelings, stuff my face.
Personal Junk: Been doing great on the work outs. Still walking 2 mi over lunch, upping it next week with my very fit office partner. She’s great. Super motivated, determined. She’s 50+ but looks like she’s in her 30’s - a real inspiration to me. Was nice to my son in law today - man, that’s a rough relationship. Went to First Responder Training. Georgia Mtn. Fire needs an EMT - so they asked if I would go ahead and take the classes to learn how to provide emergency medical aid at a higher level than basic first responder. The purpose is service - and that really is where I can best serve. They have plenty of strapping young healthy guys who like to run around in fire trucks & sling hoses around - stamp out brush fires , go into burning buildings, clean up meth labs and the like - and they do that better than I ever will. What they need is an EMT - and my skill set is more geared towards caretaking than lugging around 100# hoses and whatnot. Will keep ya’ll posted.

Man all I could think about was hot young firefighters when you were describing that…hahaha
Cheer up and be positive about life, even if you went through a rough patch! Above all try to be happy! Easier said than done, but it CAN be done!
It sounds like you are really working toward total health not just physical health. That is an amazing endeavor. I hope Marie is able to help you let go of the anger.
Good luck on the EMT classes.
I think the honesty you showed and the way you handled your self spoke for it self:) better to blog about it then keep it in. Good luck with the counselor, I see one too.
I just wanted to point out that muscle weighs more than fat and even if the scale is not moving, you are seeing muscle and I am JEALOUS!! LOL.. You are making steps forward, and you dont need anyone who puts you down in your life! You can do this but not for Him, for YOU! YOu deserve it! And when you get where He wants you to be enjoy every min of telling him.. umm.. no I think you’ve gotten alittle older, crazier, whatever than I like!
