Talked with a DB coach today. Very excellent job at steering me right on track and getting to the real root of the issue & the real actions that are going to make this work.
I'm going to recapture that girl he fell in love with both when we met and in 2003. The one that was confident, sexy, enthusiastic, assertive and interesting. And of course we do this by... GAL. It's really tough as I can clearly see how the depression is affecting me in this matter and how it has been holding me back. I'm really resistant even in my own mind to doing things. But I pushed through it today. I signed up for a bunch of things on meetup.com (if it's available in your area, try it out) and I'm going to a few events this week. I'm also pinging my one friend here to see if she wants to do any of this too.
I'm back to my workouts with my personal trainer today now that I'm back in town. I don't have a lot of energy because I'm not eating but I really did come out of there with a more positive attitude - part of it was a choice and part of it was probably the exercise so that was good.
In general I'm feeling a bit more empowered today and that's what it is all about. I'm also very tired and have been the past few days. I think I'll take a nap and then start cleaning up the house... and make sure I'm doing that when H gets home with a SMILE on my face and a happy attitude.
Edmond Dantes, thanks. You are dead on. I can do all that. Zumba is pretty popular out here so I might give it a whirl because it sounds fun.
