Been Rough Lately
Things have been crazy. I gained weight, my gynocologist wants me to be much lighter when I come back in a year, my brother-in-law was in an accident, my work place is going through some changes and I might now have my job, but I am back on track this week and trying not to let all those things cause me to gain any more weight. I hope by next week, the weight I gained will decrease. I keep moving forward--its all I can do. Not eating fast food, so hopefully that will help, and also eliminating the amount of caffenine I drink during the week. Time will tell if it will pay off.

Doing Better
Things have gotten better since my husbands accident. We got a new car and have wrapped things up with the whole situation. My weight has fluctuated but now I have lost an even 6 pounds. I think the stress helped me, but now I am riding my exercise bike and keeping the weight off--at least for this week! I do appreciate all the encouraging words of wisdom. Its nice to know you are not alone and other people struggle with the same things. I have also learned to cut out fast food so frequently. Yesterday my kids wanted McDonald's, we went through the drive thru, and I didn't order anything for myself! That was HUGE progress for me. Hope I can continue. Hope everyone else is doing well.

Losing all hope
Well, my husband was in a car accident on Valentine's Day. He is okay, but the car is totaled and we still owe LOTS on it. So of course, I went out to eat all weekend in between making phone calls to insurance companies, police stations, car rental agencies, etc. I gained 3 pounds! I can't believe that I gave in and ate like a pig. The problem is that only one of those meals was I actually even hungry! When will I learn? My life is in chaos right now, but I have to take care of myself or else I won't be any good to anyone else. I sure hope this week goes a little better than the last one. Plus, I didn't even get a Happy Valentine's Day from my husband--just a totaled car and a ticket because it was his fault! I am trying to get back on track today so we'll see what happens.

It is so hard to lose
I am struggling so hard to lose weight. I get so excited and feel ready to do it, but then the whole fast food thing takes over because I am so busy and its just easier to grab. I think if I can stop going to fast food, then maybe I can succeed at losing weight! I just need to figure out how to have the will power to stay away. Help!
