I hope you enjoy them and find the motivation to keep moving forward like I did.Remember that they are not checked for grammar or anything of the sort... they are journal entries, you get what you see.
These entries are just over 2 months after I had my most recent child. I had to choose again to stay away from binging. 2009 Journal Writing Examples

Its always nice to have Kurt home. We took the girls to the fari this morning to see all the animals...I feel a sense of sadness still... I don't understand... well I do know my hormones are trying to regulate and thats the only answer I can come up with. So I'll just plug along and wait for this to pass. Sometimes I want more out of my life and relationships. Not that I have anything to complain about.But for things to be 'smooth sailing' and always be easy and 'just right'. I expect perfection and when that doesn't happen... I kind of give up.The "all or nothing" mentality... that kind of thinking worsens depression in general. And I'm working on kicking that. I find myself viewing my imperfections a lotof the time- not being good enough mom, or wife. Being emotionally attached to eating, losing patience with my kids- not being perfect... I focus on those things and my mistakes and it perpetuates the cycle of being sad and consoling myself with food and staying angry. | 08/11/200
I got a lot accomplished yesterday. I was feeling rather good- and then Kurt didn't get home until eight o'clock. It bums me out when I don't get to see him all day. Especially the girls. They wre lucky enough to get a small hug from Dad- they were already tucked in bed, just not asleep yet.I wanted to gorge myself with food- but I didn't... I allowed myself to fee thos emotions and deal with them. I expressed them to Kurt and did some relaxation while he took a shower. | If you'd like to share you're own journal entry you can do that here. I will personally respond with support!
