Hello again, long lost friends..
Not quite sure where to start. Lots has been going on lately. I've been keeping calories moderately in check, hence no weight loss, again. Just sort of stabilized in the 140-141 range. I haven't been making a conscious effort to lose though, so I can't complain.
Too many things to write down, and my thoughts are unorganized, so I'm just going to start listing things.
1. I've still been crossfitting 2x a week, and I'm still in love with it.
2. The BF moves to California in exactly 1 week from today.
3. I'm taking a week off from work, and flying out there with him next Tuesday
4. I'm going to drop into a CF box while I'm out in Cali, so I can make sure I get at least one good work out that week
5. My mood has been so 'blah' lately, understandably so. My energy level is way down, probably bc I've only been working out 2x a week.
6. I need to get running again, in addition to CrossFit. Why? BC my half marathon training starts in one month.
7. I'm feeling so down in the dumps. I know exactly why too. I'm getting so scared for BF to leave. Because of this, my eating and motivationg to eat well has gone to the crapper too.
8. This has led to a bad mentality, and more poor body image on my part.
9. Once BF leaves, I'll focus all of my negative energy towards working on myself and bettering my eating habits.
Admitting you're getting depressed is the first step, right?

Awe sorry buddy. Your situation is tough and would make anyone feel gloomy. My best friends (married) had to live 1 year apart and though it was really tough-people can get through it! They had to develop new and exciting ways to keep the relationship fresh while away (aka phone sex LOL) You'll get through it and be a stronger couple in the end!!

No wonder you're in the dumps. It is scary to be so far apart. But use it as an opportunity to work on your goals. My hubby and me had several years of an intermittent long distance relationship due to work. There is Skype, you can talk to each other every day. Just imagine seeing him next time and being much fitter and slimmer. You can do it!

Thanks for the kind thoughts :) I know it will be hard, but we'll just have to focus on making it as easy as possible!

Enjoy this week together and when you get back from moving him get your butt in gear. I have a story of how it works out for LDRs. College roommie moved to Oregon for post-grad. Left her BF in Minnesota. They long distance dated a year, long-distance were engaged a year, before he finally got a job and was able to move there with her. 5 years of marriage and a 1 year old baby now. Hopefully you can be reunited again soon, and stronger than ever as a couple. Until then, keep up with your fitness and physical health, even if mentally & emotionally you feel wretched.

I think listing out your thoughts like that is a great idea - definitely helps get a 'scattered' mind a little more settled and helps you get to the bottom of exactly why you're feeling the way you are - definitely a big scary change, but I agree with the other girls - I'm sure you'll both do great! The time will seriously fly by.. I think #9 on your list is super important - right now you're in that weird in-between thing before he leaves, but once he's gone and you're both settled into a routine of your own (of course with plenty of time on the phone/skype/texting/etc!!) I know you'll thrive being able to focus on yourself..

Such a tough situation to be in. I like your last sentence of the whole entry. I had a meltdown a few weeks ago (timed with PMS) and I think what really got me out of it was admitting I was having issues and that I was an emotional disaster, allowing myself to feel that way, and then I was able to pull out of it. I hope that you can do the same. I agree with everyone's comments here... good advice! Keep your head up and think how great it'll be once you are back together in the same place (Cali sunshine??? :) )
