Girl problems  
Does every woman in the world go through this, or am I exceedingly neurotic?

I'm having a Bridget Jones type of few months, where I obsess about everything, maniacally watch what I eat, feel slothy and bloated and depressingly jiggly all the time (which if you know me you know that's bullshit - its all in my demented mind).... and it doesn't change! After 'dieting' for weeks, nothing is any different, which of course makes everything seem worse.

I am rational enough at some level to realize that the obsession IS the problem - it builds up stress and probably works against me at a neurological and cellular level to make sure that my questionable 'goals' are not reached. That and being in a training down-cycle is another double-hit: not working out as much as usual means I really truly can't eat what I want, and I lose the built-in stress relief of the exercise itself. Jeezus, who knows what kind of whacko compulsions I would have if I didn't funnel this energy into exercise/food/exercise/food/morefood/lessexercise/foodfoodfood/hagendaaz/moreexercise.

So anyway, its Pilates for lunch today instead of Relish. Johnny, I'll have to come see you soon, I promise!
