Hey Knotties,
I occassionally stalk this board, but have not been very active. I have a major stress issue right now. My wedding is next July, but I am currently studying to take the bar (in case you aren't sure what that is, its the Boards for lawyers). I have been super stressed out. I'm not really planning the wedding, beyond the location, at this point, but I do use it to sometimes step away from study world.
Ever since I truly started studying at the beginning of July, I have eaten like complete crap and have not been able to stay on schedule with working out. I have tried everything. I even scheduled out the days and times and what I would be doing as far as working out, but feel like I can't stop studying. And...when I'm stressed or upset, I eat, yummy foods, chips, cakes, cookies, anything I shouldn't!
There's another month left before I finally take this exam, but lately, I've looked in the mirror and just want to cry because I can tell I've gained weight. It is just adding another level of stress to what's going on in my life and I'm not really sure how I should handle it and what to do to get into a better workout schedule, that I stick to.
Thanks for listening. I appreciate it.
Andria
