Iwan's Weightloss Journal

*HUGE HUG!!!!!* I'm terribly sorry to hear about your brothers wife. The good thing is how much the medical world is evolving everyday and that gives your neice or nephew a better fighting chance! CHin up and pray for the best. You and your family will be in my thoughts!
 
Have a good evening!! This is just copied, but I want ed to get to everyone's diaries and don't have a lot of time. Just know I wish you well!
 
Hey Iwan
I hope your brother & his wife and the baby are doing well - it truly is amazing what can be done to forstall labor...I hope that's the case with them!

Your Mr Tall does sound dreamy!

As for the weight fluctuations - just remember, TOM can wreck havoc with the scales. Don't worry about it!
 
Thanks for stopping by everybody. I havn't had an update from my brother yet because his cell phone went dead. But the docs said no way is she going home any time soon.

I'm having issues with depression the last few weeks, It's been creeping in and now its here. I think the season, the stress at work, the loneliness at home and basically the fact that I don't have any real friends is getting to me. I struggle with agoraphobia, so just popping out to hang isnt an option. it takes all I have just to do what I have to to get by as a functioning member of society. My "friend" hasn't even commited to the couch yet, she does have a husband in town who has a company bunkhouse room (no girls allowed...hahaha, but she sneaks in), but somehow just the thought of her being there is irking me, like go away and let me be kinda irk. I know she needs stability cause she's got her own issues but I wish she'd just buy a plane ticket to portland cause she does have a house there.

my house is trashed. I cannot keep up with the cleaning and I can't stand a messy house. I don't even want to go home to it. I wish I could just throw it all outside and burn it. My son is the #1 contributor to this issue, he is such a slob and theres nothing I can do about it. He just does not get it and its driving me crazy. I'm going to throw away every toy in the house.

numbers:
breakfast (87)
lunch (260)
snack (150)
total 497
 
Hi Iwan, sorry to hear about all the home troubles. I wish I could reach into the computer and give you a real hug, I mean that. My prayers go out to your brother, his wife & the new baby.

Depression is a scary beast, don't let it get the best of you. We're all here for you, in spirt if not in person. Just take some time to really breath, it will be ok.

*big hug* Hang in there!!
 
hey iwanna, you are in my prayers and ya know what? dishes and cleaning can wait till ya feel better......trust me they wait for ya!!!! A clean house or a messy house, it is still just a house and what makes it special is your family not the state that it is in.......Try and take a time out for yourself.....go somewhere relaxing and just chill out for a few, take care of yourself ok? laters STAR:rolleyes:
 
On a lighter note, I uhm well, I took and threw away all my kids' toys out of frustration and they just found other things to thrash the house with. Very resourceful, kids. So don't panic I think basically all kids are destroyers of our homes! My daughter has a friend that is 7 yrs old and she constantly goes around picking up stuff and at first I thought wow, but then I noticed she doesn't really know how play so that's kind of weird. Just be thankful your son is normal. I hope your brother and his wife are ok. I'll be thinking about you, so try to relax and not get so depressed!!:)
 
You and your family are in my prayers, I'm so sorry that you all are going through this stressful time. But I am believing that all will work out just fine and your little niece or nephew will be healthy with splendidly happy parents...and auntie too! *BIG HUGS*

On a lighter note...given the housing situation you mentioned earlier, I think I'll pass on moving to your neck of the woods. :p
 
Thanks for the posts all, you ppl rock. My saturday is treating me like a red headed step child. I've been running around all day trying to get all these thanksgiving food baskets delivered. turkeys are heavy and my shoulder is killing me. I've only had time to drink a latte and a 24 oz botle of water today so there goes my high cal day. 137 cals so far....boooo! hisss!!!

I hate to sound all uppity but some of the houses I've been too are gross. And there are elders living there is pretty bad conditions. Now that I know about it I can't just sit here and do nothing. I'm going to try and put together a group of people to help these elders clean and maybe a work crew to help repair some of the front porches I've almost killed myself on today. In our community with all the resources we have there is no reason for our elderly to live like that. I know I can get the materials donated, but the volunteers are always few and far between. Maybe there are special grants out there I can look into writing to get some funding.

Anyways, if I'da know today was going to be hell day I'da dressed up as satan. No word from my bro this morning but I suppose thats a good thing. I sent him a few grand last night via western union cause he's missing alot of work.
 
You're a thoughtful sister. *hugs* AND a thoughtful person in general. Putting together a group to clean and repair the houses of your local elderly sounds like a beautiful idea.
 
Iwan Im having the same kind of day. I'm up to a grand total of 0 calories at almost 6 pm lol. That all day running around gets you every time.
 
Iwan: I know of a whole bunch of people who would jump at the chance to serve the community---look up the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the phone book, I guarentee you'll get some helpers. :)

I really hope that your brother and his wife pull through this....I think it's safe to say that we're all praying for them. *hugs*

Ooooh, good idea, the "elders" are always looking for stuff to do (why do they call a bunch of young guys in suits "elders"?) and thanks for the prayers, I hear they help :)

Well, really, its paybacks for being an awesome big brother. He's bailed me out of all kinds of trouble in my life including helping me retain a kick ass attorney when I was getting a divorce...so...needless to say, I owe him a whole lot more.

Like I said, I finally gorged myself sick. I figured I was wasting a good high cal day and needed to get my bum in gear. So I went the easy high fat high cal route of walking across the street. Hopefully my body will forgive me.
