laziness

Lazy - that's me, for sure! I don't work anymore, and I really struggle some days. I was spending my days in bed.

I used to wake up at 6:00 a.m. and then go back to sleep until noontime. I wouldn't get dressed, and I'd do nothing but watch tv all day. Miserable was the word for me and I was so depressed.

I finally got really mad at myself and made a promise to myself to get moving. When I wake up at 6:00 I push myself to get up out of bed and get dressed. I make tea and read the news and do some puzzles (crossword, sudoku, etc.) and I put on music. I push to go out 3-4 days per week, just to be around other people, and I realize I feel good when I do that. I push myself to do housework. And I plan out my meals ahead of time so I can stay on plan. I got sick and tired of feeling so lousy - things are better now, but it will be a while before it becomes less of an effort to do these things.

Just today I had a bad day - I actually deleted my shortcut to this site and was going to throw in the towel. But I talked myself out of my funk - logged everything (didn't go over) and put to shortcut back. I'm not going to allow myself to defeat myself - I've done it to many times before.

You've got to accept the fact that sometimes it's a struggle - but you're going to feel better as you progress along. Your success or failure is in your hands, no one elses. Don't slip down into the pit of despair. Grab hold and pull yourself up and get going. You'll feel 100% better.

Good luck. :flowerforyou:

I think you aren't lazy I think you are depressed and need to get to see your doctor and get on some medication.
Start by going for a walk everyday and getting some fresh air into your body, then start with looking at your nutrition, because this, my love, is NOT living.
The only person who can fix this is you, theres no magic formula, theres no such thing as willpower and wishing to be able to do things isn't going to make it happen.
FIGHT for happiness and FIGHT to have a great life.
Personally? Lying around in bed all day, is no life at all. That alone should scare you into getting to the doctor. You deserve to be happy and I'm not sure a weight loss forum is going to fix this for you.
Care about yourself enough to get some help.
I wish you lots of luck

I feel for you, I have been there a few times, its a dark place to be, & hard to pull yourself out of, all I can say is you need to find yourself again, you sound disconnected...

Know that you are a good person , & you deserve better than to feel that way...

YES!!

I've been having similar issues.. not as serious though. I've been feeling hopeless about life because I am way behind everyone I graduated with. When I'm home all by myself I feel like I can't even get up to do anything. I know how you feel. Find something that motivates you.. I think about school and where it is going to get me, that gives me a little bit of motivation, something to look forward too.. that helps me a little bit.

please see a professional

We all have those moments. Don't be upset, it happens. Just keep your head up and tell yourself that you can do it. Make those fat cry!
