Help getting started~

[hollytingle]

I need help getting started!! I am so lonely and depressed! I am literally hating myself for my failures! I am getting fatter by the minute and can't seem to quit shoveling food in my mouth. I don't know what to do with myself. I want to start my low carbing and make it thru the first week and I know I will feel MUCH better if I do, but I can't seem to even get thru the first day or two! Does anyone have any advice or tips? Some suggestions if you have ever felt this way? I am lost and getting fatter everyday. I don't like myself like this!!!

I am in nursing school too, which makes it even harder. I keep having thoughts like "what if I need carbs for my brain to function??" or "I'm so stressed...I can't do this right now!!

Any suggestions I would appreciate!!

Hi Holly,

Welcome to the group. I would suggest that you just jump in and do it. Losing weight is like setting a study schedule for an anatomy test. Make a list of everything you want to do when you lose weight and post it somewhere you see it. Then, sit down and plan every bite of food that will go into your mouth for 1 day. If you are being successful in nursing school, then sticking to a schedule should be easy for you. Plan, plan, plan and execute. You want to be healthy and happy so you can be the BEST nurse for your patients and so you can be an example of a healthy life. I am pretty new too...check out my journal in the journal chats called "Quest for Onderland" and see if it helps. Welcome!
