Had a crappy few days.
Thought I'd use LJ to talk myself through my "issues"!!
Here we go...
PROBLEM: Having serious trouble mentally and physically losing the final 5 kilos to reach my goal weight.
The problem is - that because I have lost so much weight, I feel so much more confident about
myself and actually WANT to socialise. This means lots of weekends drinking and partying. Need to
stop it dramatically or else I will never reach 85kilos.
SOLUTION: Put my head down and go for it. No more excuses. Bite the bullet and do it. I'll never be
fully satisfied until I do. 4.9 kilos is NOTHING compared to how far I have come.
Write down and calculate EVERYTHING I eat. Exercise at least once a day. Say no to snacks
and treats at work. Realise that one scoop of ice cream doesn't mean half the tub on a really
big spoon. STOP COMPARING MYSELF TO CLINT. Stop looking at all the exercise he is doing and
comparing it to my own. STOP OBSESSING OVER IT. Be happy that he has done so damn well and not
feel bitter. LEARN TO BE HAPPY WITH MYSELF.
PROBLEM: Feeling unfulfilled at work. Feeling like I don't fit in. Feeling constantly bitter.
SOLUTION: Accept that work will never, ever be perfect. Try to make the most of it. Think of other areas
that I am skilled in and make a plan. Just because I work in radio know doesn't mean I always
have to work in radio. DON'T LET EGOS AROUND THE RADIO STATION GET TO ME.
Stop comparing myself to Kylie & Geoff.
Work to live and not live to work. Take a chill pill when reps annoy the shit out of me.
Stop taking things to heart.
Try to work out what it is about the job that makes me so upset all the time.
PROBLEM: Never, ever having money. Constantly struggling to get by each week.
SOLUTION: Make a buget. STICK TO IT! Don't always say yes to dinners out and social events. Stop binge
drinking because I am bored. Try and find things to do that don't cost money.
STOP BEING SO BLOODY STUPID WITH MONEY. Get a reality check. Listen to Clint's money tips
and not get so angry at him.
NOW WASNT THAT FUN??
