Pact With Myself.


So as of September 1st, 2022 I have made a pact not to date or get into a relationship for 1 yr. I’m taking this time to focus on ME. I’m going to dig deep and try to heal myself. I have a lot of work to do on myself.

I started a weight loss journey in Feb 2015. I started at 604 lbs. The lowest I have been in this journey so far is 424 lbs. I am currently 534 lbs (as of today). I have so much work to do. I want to be healthy mentally and physically. 

I have started walking again, meditating every night before bed and taking time to read self-help books and go over my DBT Therapy literature. Trying to get into trauma therapy. 

I will be documenting my journey here and also Instagram (@katentwistle). 

I will get to my goal of under 400 lbs by this time next year. I am going to do this for myself. I am also 3 months sober from alcohol. There are a lot of goals I have for myself.

1. Quit smoking cigarettes.

2. Quit smoking cannabis.

3. Lose 284 lbs.

4. Be an advocate/create awareness for Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) and mental health in general.

5. Drink 2L of water a day and slowly increase to 6L per day.

6. Possibly start a TikTok regarding my journey (possibly).

7. Get better at my makeup application. 

8. Buy a DSLR.

I can do this. I can do this. I can do this….let’s go!!

Thursday….The New “Hump” Day?

 Well today was a shit show. Wrapped up in depression and self loathing. It felt like a Wednesday. But surprisingly it was a Thursday. Hoping for a better tomorrow (Friday).  Today, I have been told I need to hold on (by a few people). Also that I need to stop believing I’m a literal piece of shit. How does one just stop feeling like a burden? How do I just turn off the hell that is depression? If I had that answer do you not think I wouldn’t just “feel better” if I could? I feel like screaming. I know the people who care about me in my life mean well. But if I could turn off this feeling don’t you think I would? It’s this constant voice inside my head (the never ending narrative) that I am not good enough, I’m a burden, why would anyone care about me? I don’t deserve to be loved and cared for. It’s sinister. This voice inside my head. I’m in a funk. I wish I could turn it off. I used to just drink it away. Anything to numb this feeling of emptiness. My best friend told me she...

Hurt.

The worst part of being hurt has to be that you never know when you’re going to stop hurting. I fell for someone hard. The worst part is that he went along with it when he had NO INTENTION to reciprocate the feelings. Well he did reciprocate the feelings to a degree…. but then it all changed. I feel like I have experienced some great loss. Like it’s crazy. I know with my BPD I get attached to people very quickly and this is no different. I opened up, he acted like he understood and felt similar…..only to end up now barely communicating with me at all. I always wonder…..why am I not good enough?   So now I’m done. I don’t deserve scraps. I don’t deserve those little breadcrumbs that he is giving me to hold out hope for something that doesn’t exist.  But here I am, the one up at 4am cause I can’t sleep, my brain won’t stop. I know I have a lot of healing to do within myself. I can only hope that I will eventually find someone who accepts me for me. But this hurts so fucking much...

Hi….Is Anyone Out There?

 I’m constantly at odds with myself. I’m an enigma. One day okay, the next day suicidal (sometimes all in one day). I’m so exhausted mentally. I’m going to be 38 this year….I feel like I’m not where I am supposed to be in life and that bothers me. My mental health has always been a defining characteristic and maybe I don’t know who I am, if I’m not suffering in some way. But I know I have to change. I have to try. This is killing me and it’s a slow brutal death.  I have so many health issues mentally and physically. The hardest thing to do is to keep pushing through each day when it feels like there is nothing to live for. I have to learn how to live for myself and not live for other people. I have to learn how to focus on me, and stop putting energy into people who can’t/won’t meet me half way or return the amount of energy I put into them. Don’t even get me started on my love life. What love life? Currently stuck in the awkward situation of being at that friends but not tota...
