Back on Track

Hiiii Pattycakes!! :D
Wooo Vegas sounds fantastic!! Massage & a pedi - wooo heavenly!
Glad life is treating you well, you're doing great especially with all you've had to deal with the last few months. You rock girl!! :D:D
 
hehe, if I'm in Vegas, weight loss goes out the window - that's a given. I'm glad you had a good trip in all areas. A girls' gotta eat while she's there. right ?? Something tells me you do ok - no fear here.
 
Boy I've been lazy. 10 days since I posted at wlf. Weight was up a little, coming back down. Finally got a run in last week.

Big accounting software demo at work tomorrow, then taking the client out to dinner with coworkers.

Went to the family law courthouse to file some papers today. Filed petition 60 days ago, so can file final papers any day now - just need to hammer it out with ex. Cried on the drive downtown. It's the right thing to do, and it's what I want. It just sucks. Four months into it and I'm just worn out from the emotional roller coaster.

I love my job, but I can't wait to be more comfortable doing it. If I can get through tomorrow, that's one hurdle. Then have a trade show in early March in New Orleans which will involves lots of prep (service). Then have a demo in mid March (payroll and hrm) which will also be lots of work.

Maybe then it will get easier????????????

If anyone wants to know, the software includes accounting (+ payroll, hrm), service, parts and sales. Each area is pretty complex, and I was away for 7.5 years, so I'm a little rusty in some areas.

It's Girl Scout cookie time (I'm the cookie mom and leader) and it's soccer time, so here comes a busy spring....
 
I'm just glad your post count got off 666, I was very nervous for those 10 days :eek:

Hang in there kiddo, you're hittin' on all cylinders now :cool:

*forum hug*
 
got through my two days of demos. couldn't eat much for worry. you'd think it would show up on the scales...... alas
 
Finally hit a new low weight today. Had gone up a few. Just started watching what I was eating again. No time for exercise in recent months, though I plan to start back up a little as things settle down.

New Orleans trip week before last, Spring Break at home with the kids last week, Ohio next week.

Looking for some good strength training exercises for the back.
 
am in dayton, ohio. in hotel room - warmed up with 75 jumping jacks, did lots of stretching today, and 50 situps. that's all, but felt good. wish i had a scale, but am eating not too bad for being on the road.
 
Hit a new low weight today. Sadly, it's due to a stomach bug and stress - just not eating much lately.

Woke up here in the middle of the night. Hope I can get back to sleep soon, though it's been 2 hours already. Just a little sad lately. May try to work out in the am if not too tired, and for sure this weekend.

The ex has the little ones for Easter, which also makes me a little sad and lonely. Have not finalized the divorce yet. Am working on the paperwork, which sucks. Just yesterday he asked if he could have a second chance.

Really need to re-introduce exercise and weight training. I know it will improve my mood. It has always helped in the past. Also need it to bring down the BF% and improve tone. Am almost at my target weight, but the body shape is not great.

Had a new interest, but got my heart dented.

Life is hard sometimes.

Oh Randy, what a mood lifter you are. Thanks for being such a good online friend!!!!

Debi, thanks for your words. Look at your darling photo! I hope all is well in your world.

Well, hit a new low weight today. 1 lb from goal weight. Need a new goal weight (just 5 more) and a BF goal, though my scale measuring my BF LIES, I just know it. Also need to get cholesterol measured and make that a goal (if necessary - was really bad a few years ago which is one reason I decided to lose weight and exercise). Also need to exercise. So time for some specific goal setting.

Off to move my car from one repair shop to another. Got check engine light diagnosed and need a new catalytic converter. There goes $600 or more.

~~~ Some days you're the windshield. Some days you're the bug. ~~~

TO DO:
Taxes this week, pay off old medical bills out of HSA account, work on divorce papers, clean house, register girls for camp and summer day care, get ready for Girl Scout meeting on Monday, pack for trip to see Mom (ah Mom is always a source of support) and sis this weekend. Oh yeah, and work. Oh yeah, and heal my heart a little. That's all.
 
Nothing heals like a trip to Moms house :) A most excellent choice Patty. Put your feet up for a spell and inhale for a change :cool:

Some people make being a friend a very easy situation - thanks for that ;)
 
Oh Patty,
I had to have a cataylitic converter put in the beginning of March - $900 bucks in CA :( Granted, that pales in comparison to the new transmission that's being worked on right now....urgh!

Hope life settles for you - it sounds truly chaotic!
 
Thanks for the cyber hug 12packabs. Just what I need.

Yeah Debi, life is chaotic, but I'm also being a big baby whiner right now! Thanks for checking up on me.

Randy, you da best. I'm ready to see mom.

Geez it's only Tuesday, right? I took the day off yesterday to handle the car (total spent in all was $340) and work on my taxes. Last night my new relationship officially ended once and for all. Stinks. I know, I know. It was too soon, blah blah blah. I'm definitely not dating for a while.

Hit and surpassed my goal weight today. I know it has not been a healthy loss, it's stress, lack of sleep and lack of appetite.
