so happy youre back.been in a funk myself all winter.i just recently tried to find my motivation.doing so so.stick around this time.missed you. 

Hey girl..just stay with us..it sure helps to have people in your corner...We are here for ya..Hugs...:O) 

Sorry you didn't get the job for the police. Keep plugging away and something will come up. I know what you mean about being in a funk. Been there myself. I a mainly doing atkins but have a my day occassionally. Hang in there and things will get better. :):) 

I had to switch to only meat and veggies (not starches like potatoes) after 2 pm to get my body moving again... Maybe worth a try? 

It is great to see you back. I know it is a bummer to not get the job and to still be looking, but it just makes me think that God has something else in mind for you. That is the hardest part sometimes....we know to trust in him and that he will handle everything but it is very hard to not get into that funk. I will say a prayer for you and hope you stick around this time. 

It's been such a struggle for me for the past few months, I so feel you on that. Getting my head back on straight finally... maybe summer will help. I know being here every day definitely helps. Glad to see you back! 

Congrats on re-energizing your attitude, and getting back on track; both can be hard to do when you've been in a, "funk". Never Give Up!!! That's the only way to succeed in this battle of the bulge. :-) 

Paula, lots of us longer-term folks have been going through our share of funks lately....maybe it's just par for the course and what we'll have to face from time to time when we stay committed to this WOE. I "think" I've broken out of my funk, but I can't really say why. Just sorta happened. I do know that I had to take a much firmer grip on attitude and discipline (you know, THOSE things! LOL!) and get myself back into a frame of mind more like that in early OWL. After all the success of a longer journey, it's HARD to take back solid control....but it's what I had to do. Still can't say for sure that it's been a success, but it IS beginning to feel different.....like it used to. Hang in there and enjoy the volunteering! I do!
