I'm feeling utterly shit about life today.

So here's a self indulgent rant about life - feel free to ignore or to chip in with something that might make me feel a bit better.

  1. I'm fat - disgusted with myself fat, I have diet under the sun they either work for a short time or don't. I've tried upping my fitness level, started C25K but cannot get past week 3, I have repeated and failed week 4 run 1 more times than I care to admit. I am worried I will slip into destructive, disorder eating patterns I had in my teens.
  1. We've just worked out that we are likely to never be adequately housed, were never going to be able to buy anywhere and our HA is far too small. No chance of moving at all.
  1. I got turned away for a job I would have been fucking perfect for and loved on a technicality. I have another interview tomorrow for a different job but I'm so fucking fat I have nothing to wear, all my 'big' clothes have perished over the years.
  1. We had a shitty school TAFF meeting yesterday, DS is ind desperate need of an EHCP and no one is willing to do their job to get it done. He's falling further and further behind.

I'm currently walking, trying to clear my head before work but I'm crying because life seem utter bollocks at the moment.

That's it. Rant over.

You have a lot on your plate at the moment and it all sounds exhausting and over-whelming.

Walking is a great idea and is what I do when my mind is spinning with all the stuff that I can't seem to control.

A thought about clothes -

Could you get to a Primark and get some black clothes that fit you? Black is slimming, looks smart and may make you feel better about going to interviews. I'm a big fan of ebay, but I know that's not for everyone - could you look there if you don't have a Primani nearby?

You've got 3 weeks further in C25k than I have ever even attempted. Walking is good. I use the active 10 app which congratulates me if I manage 10 minutes brisk activity Blush

I have seen your posts around for some time. You seem like a thoughtful and considerate poster who also has a lot on her plate. Thanks
