A new start for Iwan

Okay, hoping for a good day today. My headache I think is officially gone after an imatrex injection and then later last night a tramadol injection (owie, it was like she was shooting syrup into my muscle!). But it worked. Thank the goddess! My headache had been so bad that I wasn't really eating much so last night I managed to eat, alot. And alot of it was very salty. And I drank alot of water. Go me. I have a workout planned for tonight with some co workers including our staff excersize therapist. Mr. Broken Drama Queen II is coming in today to have stitches removed from his ankle he had surgery on. I told the PA to make him cry. She said she'd try her hardest. More updates later. Oh, I actually ATE breakfast this morning which is so out of character for me but I was hungry.
 
Yikes @ all the headaches! Hope you're feeling better!!
I have such a hard time with sugar too. Stupid sugar! :rolleyes:..lol.
Have a great day!! :D:D
 
For dinner last night I had three pieces of pizza. That was bad. Now I am going to behave myself for a few days.

I got a three page letter last night from Mr. Broken Drama Queen II with this really long heartfelt apology about his "girlfriend" who is not his girlfriend and hasn't been his girlfriend for a while and how she had no right to call me and tell me they were getting back together because that was "never a deal even on the table". He thought she was just hanging around to take care of him because thats what friends do, not sabatage his new relationships. He said she had his cell when he left town because they work together and she was covering for him and she found my number in his call log and got all snoopy.
I don't know if I can believe him. I want to because I do like him, but at the same time I have these huge trust issues and right now I don't trust him. I don't know what to do. I guess...I'll just meditate on the situation...maybe Jim Morrison or somebody will appear to me in some kind of revelation and tell me what to do, rock star style.
 
Howdy IWAN,
OOOOOHHH I love Jim Morrison send him my way if he does appear lol! I wanted to congrats you for losing 3 lbs I haven't been here in a while well anywhere for that matter I have been scanning pics to my pc and it takes forever.I hope the headaches stay away they are a big pain in the butt.Congrats on boss giving out gym memberships!! Have a nice day Tammy:)
 
ooooh jim morrison visits from the great beyond - cool...

i'm a big believer in trusting your instincts and going with how you feel in your gut... trust is a huge issue -i couldn't spend any time with people i didn't trust... you aren't desperate for male companionship and i hear there are plenty of fish in the sea
 
lol.. Wayne's World. Love.
If you don't trust him then that's the point in keeping him around, really.
Eh - you'll figure something out. :cool:
 
I just have to wonder, is my mistrust displaced? Am I being unfair to him on account of her actions. I don't know. I'm still waiting on Jim and the revelations. I would ask my mom, but in matters of men, I don't mention them to mom...she'll call him herself and thats just frickin embarassing.

I think I'm going to start putting my menu and cals up daily again, I have no excuse not to.
Breakfast:
Coffee w/ 3 tbsp creamer: 105 cals
1/2 a thick slice of sourdough bread (home made) 120 cals (estimated)
Lunch:
Chicken Marsala lean cuisine: 140 cals
Dannon light and fit yogurt: 60 cals
Dinner:
Salad w/ 2 oz goat cheese & a side of FF cottage cheese: 250 cals

Snack:
Dannon light and fit yogurt: 60
Gold fish crackers: 140 cals
Water: 60 oz, I need to get that water in better.

I rarely give out second chances. Thirds, unheard of. Afterall, I am divorced, I do have a line and when its crossed there's no going back.
 
Brrrrrr! its cold here today. I drove to work in a white out, winds outta the north 30-45 mph and all that. February was kinda mild compared to other years, but March is just as fierce as it's always been. I told my son a few days ago that in Dutch Harbor spring is just like winter only colder and windier. I think today he finally believes me. If I overeat today it won't kill me, I'll burn plenty of cals just trying to stay warm, and unfortunalty I'll probably have to break out the old shovel and give the driveway a cleaning. I have a big long driveway :(
I ate like a champ yesterday, a champ losing weight that is. I had a huge salad for dinner with goat cheese crumbles and balsamic vinegarette (the wishbone spritzers). I have to go back now and update my post from yesterday and get to some journals. But I'm sure I'll update later.

Hmmm, upon further evaluation I didn't eat enough cals yesterday. Oops.

Its freezing here, literally. My house froze up last night. The fuel line probably froze first, because the furnace stopped working. The dog woke me up at 5am pacing and whining. brrrr, its cold here. We packed up and came over to my moms house so I could shower and get ready for work. Her scale is much more forgiving them mine, I should shower here every morning. Anyways, its going to be a cold day, its super windy from the north and it sucks...basically. My fingers were so frozen they were burning when I was driving to my mom's this morning through a white out. Yeah. I need a vacation somewhere really warm.

Today:
Breakfast: yogurt: 170 Coffee: 100
 
:eek: I'm sending warm thoughts your way...I hope you get them soon. My furnace went out in November for a day, that totally sucked.

Vacation, hmmm? I'm trying to save for Disney World (both are in warm climates :D ). Where were you thinking?
 
Howdy IWAN,
Yuck and I feel your pain in the house freezing my furnace decided to catch fire on the inside when we weren't home and it was shot this happened in Jan below freezing on the weekend and we couldn't get our new 1 until thurs so 5 days of burners being on + 2 of those oil filled heaters which are awesome for backup they run between $40-$60 and walmart carries them.
I hope you get warm soon and by the way I gave my hubby a 2nd chance because we have a family we were engaged at the time not married yet but felt like it anyway like mal said NOWAY to 3rd chances! Have a great weekend stay warm Tammy
 
Well, usually when my heat goes off its my own darn fault because I forget to order fuel...this time mother nature is to blame so at least I don't feel responsible. I just put up space heaters in the bathroom and furnace room (to try and thaw the pipes out without a blow torch), but when I was home earlier I walked around the back of the house to see what was making it so cold and my crawl space door had blown in so the pipes have been exposed to a direct northern wind for hours at least. There was a bit of water on the furnace room floor this am, when I was home at 7:30 it was freezing on the floor...not good. Hopefully when I run home for lunch really quick things have warmed up a bit.

I saw the link and all I could think was how can CRS (which is the common acronym for the disease that affects a lot of people - ya know Can't Remember Shit (and it's corrollary CRAFT - cant remember a freakin' thing) had to do with calories :) unless you just forget how many calories you have :)
 
I thouroughly researched the link and I've decided that the CRS cult is basically extreme dieters for life. Not my kind of lifestyle change but, hey, if it works for my sister to be a waife...whatever, she's an adult and she knows I like food waaaay to much to ever go that extreme. I read an article google searching and...frankly...it did not shed a good light on the "guru's" of the lifestyle. Basically, it said they had gone mad from starvation. Mad I tell ya. My sister will fit in just perfectly. I can see her doing this for life....a short life. lol. she's convinced she is going to live to be 160 now, even though she's predisposed to die of a massive heart attack in her 50's. Good luck sistah!
