Going on a road trip!!
Wrote on Wednesday, May 16th 2007
I have been trying to find a balance in calories since I reached my goal. The first 2 weigh-ins after I reached my goal, I gained just a little bit. This week I stayed the same. Which made me happy, but I have another challenge coming up starting tomorrow. My husband and I are going on vacation for the first time in our 24 years of marriage!!! It’s off to
North Carolina
tomorrow morning. We will be gone for about a week. His family lives there. We haven’t been back there since we got married there 24 years ago!
Gotta get to bed it is 1:38 am!!

I finally reached my goal!!
On April 25th I finally reached my goal!! Yayyyy. My JCC moved me to 1700 calories from 1200 calories a day. I expressed to her that I was very nervous about doing this, she said "it will all work out, you'll see" She is easing me into it. 4 days of 1200 calories and 3 days of 1700 calories for 1 week, alternating them. Then 3 days of 1200 calories and 4 days of 1700 calories and so on till I am on 1700 calories everyday.
When I reached my goal, I weighed 129.7 lbs when I weighted myself this morning I was 134 pounds!! I am NOT liking this 1700 calorie thing! 1700 just seems to be too much food! Has anyone else felt this way when they go up in the calories and did you gain weight?
My cat "Tuesday" has been really ill. I noticed she has been drinking alot of water lately and sleeping more than she normally does and not eating. So I took her to the vet on April 13th, blood work was done. The test came back the next day showing she has acute pancreatitis which she has had in the past but this time it is alot worse. And she in the beginning stages of kidney failure. The vetis more worried about her pancreas right now than her kidney's. She was put on an antibiotic and a medicine called denamarin to treat the pancreatitis.
She finished up her antibiotics last night and has about 15 days left of the denamarin. She looks and acts like she is feeling much better. She will need to have her blood checked again in 3-4 month to check the kidney function.
Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers.
I am still off work due to increasing anxiety. I go back to see my Doctor on May 1st. I don't know if I am going to be able to return to work, or at least that job anyway.

down to a size 10!
Oh yeah I forgot to mention while I was drowning in my pitty party, that my husband and I went shopping for clothes, cause the shorts and capri's I have are from last year and they are a size 18!!! I am now in a size 10. That makes me happy!
I have a question for everyone out there. When you got to your goal or was close to it, did you suddenly just feel like you had lost yourself, like you didn't know who you were mentally anymore? I have been experiencing that alot lately. I should be happy that I am down over a 100 pounds, but something, I am not sure what, is making me uncomfortable. Maybe it just have to do with the depression I am going through right now, or maybe it brought out more of my depression.

Not a good time

Sorry for the lack of posting. The month of March to present has not been good. Well, it started going down hill when my dad passed away Jan 4th 2007, and I think everything started surfacing in March. I don't believe I have come to terms with my dads death... I don't even know if I can. It's so painful I put my thoughts and feelings to the side and stuff it... numb it out. Then there is my job. I don't even know where to begin. My job has gotten so stressful, it's causing high anxiety on top of already high anxiety. I have been out on short term disability since March 6th. I am on medicine for depression and anxiety, have been for years. Apparently something isn't working. I have had my medicines changed around. It may be this job I am doing, maybe it's not for me... Hmm... time will tell.
Even more great news!! When I weighed in at JC tonight I gained 3.7 pounds. I only worked out 2 times for 30 mins each this last week. So I hope for a better week this next week.

Getting Closer!!
1.4 pounds closer to my goal!! My size 14 jeans are getting really loose. I can't wait to go out and buy some size 12's. It's been a long long time since I got into size 12!!! I also lost 2 1/2 more inches since the last time I got measured. 67.25 inches lost in total That is just the bust, waist, abdomen and hips.
My son still has been running a high fever at night with terrible coughing. He has missed 3 days of work, but had to go back to work yesterday (Wednesday) whether he had a fever or not. He just started this new job about 3 weeks ago and they don't offer any sick days or health insurance before 90 days.
We got through the ice and snow storm last weekend without loosing power. A lot of people are still out of power, and now we are under a blizzard warning from 6 am Thursday to 6 pm Friday.

Snow, Ice and High Fevers!!
Well I am sitting here hoping the power does not go off. We have been getting ice pellets, and freezing rain off and on all day and now on top of that heavy snow! 140,000 people in Iowa have already lost power.
I asked for this day (Saturday) off a week ago, good thing too cause I didn't really want to travel home in this weather.
My son has been sick since Thursday night. Sore throat, headache, dizzy, cough, runny nose, achy body. I talked to him last night when I got off work and his temp was 102.5 with Tylenol. He called me today, saying he was worse, that when he coughs he is coughing up green stuff with blood in it. So I braved the ice and took him to the walk in clinic, ended up being a 2 hour wait. His temp was 102.5 when we arrived, shortly after we arrived he started chilling, by the time the doctor came in his fever was up to 104.8!! The doctor said that motrin would work best for bringing down his fever. After she checking him out, she said his chest sounded a bit raspy. She said it probably started out as a virus but he now either has acute bronchitis or the beginning of pneumonia, and since he doesn't have any health insurance she wasn't going to do a lot of test, that she should just treat it regardless of what it is. So she gave him samples of Omnicef. By the time we got back to my house his temp was 105.8!! I was like OMG OMG OMG OMG, we gotta get some motrin in!!
We have been rotating the motrin and then the tylenol and his fever is staying way down, thank goodness!!
So far I haven't gotten any exersize in! I just have to get some in!
I can't remember if I have mentioned this before or not but I have discovered yoga! I LOVE LOVE LOVE it! It is so relaxing and it truly does give you a good work out.

We have had absolutely beautiful 50 degree weather this past couple of days. This weekend I heard a major snow storm is coming! So we will see what happens!!

Back to work I go!
I am feeling much better after being sick for almost a week.
I went back to work today, I wasn't looking forward to it, but I made it through LOL!
Haven't gotten any more exercise in this week either, I can't even imagine what the scales will say at Jenny on Wednesday night.
It's back to yoga and cardio with Chris Freytag asap! I actually kinda miss working out! It's funny, I never thought I would say that!
Today was unexpectedly pleasant outside. It was sunny it got up to 47 degrees!! Such a welcome change after being in the deep deep freeze for so long!
I am beat, heading to bed so I can get up early and EXERCISE! YAYYYYYY

Not 100 lb loss anymore
Well I have no longer lost 100 pounds . I gained 0.2 lbs. I started to get sick on last Sunday evening Feb 11, 07 scratchy throat, and a headache. Everyday that passed I got worse and more sick. So yesterday I went to see my doctor and I have strep throat and sinus infection. I didn't get all my exercise in last week, so I gained 0.2 lbs . Which is ok, it will eventually come off. I just has to!!
