I don't know why, but I'm in a melancholy-type pensive mood this afternoon. Nostalgic, if you will. I can't put my finger on it, but I don't like it.

Maybe it's all this self-examination I've been doing since I started "slimming". Perhaps it's time to take a break from all the nutritional and exercise material I've been reading. I'm such an extremist...an all-or-nothing kinda girl...which is not always a good thing, especially during these new changes in my lifestyle. I think I might be on a TMI system-overload that's just now hitting me like a ton of bricks.

It's the strangest thing...I'm having a good day, got my exercise in, eating as planned, my family's all well, business is great...and yet I'm finding myself walking down Memory Lane in the middle of the afternoon.

What in the world is going on here?

They're not bad memories or good ones, just a feeling of being 'stuck' in the middle of that Lane. I'm not sure I want to take this trip today, but I can't seem to get away from it. It's like I'm wearing a nasty coat that I can't take off. Yuk! It's a weird combination of déjá vu and get-your-head-in-the-game kinda thing.

Grrrr...I hate this feeling. What is this???

Ahhh...who knows. Maybe if I just stop and 'go with it' something good will come of it. I think I'll go take a quick dip in the pool and try to pull myself together.

Apologies for the oddity...I just HAD to write this down before I got completely out of control! I'm sure I'll be better and cheerier tomorrow! :)

I can definitely relate. I always seem to be overwhelmingly (like, to the point of mental pain) nostalgic this time of year. Memory overload. And dream overload--or like I'm walking through a dream all day long. Also, I've been thinking today that I need to stop spending so much time obsessing about this stuff, thinking about eating and working out and weight loss every waking minute of every day. I decided today I need to get back to living and stop obsessing. I go overboard when I get into things too. There IS such a thing as focusing too much on this. I'm getting burned out on it too. There is more to life. This is my favorite time of year and I need to be enjoying it. Dip in the pool sounds lovely!

I think it's part of the "slimming" territory. You're losing weight and vulnerability seems to lurk around every corner. Just let things happen and unfold, deal with them and move on. It will be fine in the end and you will probably discover why you put the weight on in the first place.

At times like these, it's really hard to see the forest for the trees. Thank you both so much for your comments!!!
