Hey mates, it's me, David. It's Saturday and I just watched one of the wildest come from behind NFL games... the Jacksonville Jaguars beat the LA Chargers. It was WILD. If you watch sportsball stuff, I hope you caught it. And if you have no idea what I'm talking about, that's ok too.
I didn't do any prep today for food. I didn't exercise or walk, even though it was nice and cool outside for Florida. I yet again... did nothing. There's no excuse. I should have gone outside for a walk. I was tired. I only got about 4 hours of sleep and the morning and afternoon were busy. I was up around 5:30 and didn't get home until around 3:30 or so. So my energy was pretty much gone. I did some household chores and started making a list of things to do tomorrow, including grocery shopping. But I just vegged out on the couch after that.
So, the past two days I've talked about things in the past. My weight loss surgery, the body dysmorphia I feel / felt. I feel like that was a pretty good start to more discussions later on this month... this year. I will definitely revisit these topics as I continue to progress.
Although this episode will be on the short side, I want to stress that taking care of yourself and seeing your doctors, if you're able to, is something you should be doing. Checking in with them about your health, or things that you feel might be off with your body is crucial. Sadly, the only problem is at times, we get dismissed. Especially for those of us that are larger. It's always "Lose weight" and your problems will go away. Except, it's not always that. I know finding a doctor who will look past that is tough. It may take some time, but it is well worth it to find someone who can and will advocate for you and be a partner in your health. Just because I'm overweight doesn't mean I don't deserve the same level of care and consideration that someone smaller may get.
I'll check in with you tomorrow and hopefully have more on my personal front! Thanks for listening mates.
