Hi everyone!
Beautiful sunny day here, but boy is it cold!! -36*C (-29*F) but we've warmed up to -20*C (-4*F) and we are suppose to get up to above freezing in a couple of days, its crazy!
Saw my doctor yesterday and he's added celexa to my list. Suppose to help the anxiety, so we'll see.
Other than that nothing new here. Hope you are all keeping well.
Take care,
K

Hi girls,

I'm out of town at my friend's house for a couple of days. I'm actually going back home tomorrow. It's been nice to get away. I got to see my mom as well since she lives about an hour and a half away. We haven't done a lot, just some shopping and decorating for her apartment which we always have fun doing. I has been relaxing.

I spoke to df and he is still concerned about his work being slow so I may try to wait tables a few days a week somewhere. I'll have to see who will work around my schedule.

Momof4: sorry you are having a tough time. Big for all you have done for her and your own family.

Buddly: I'm on celexa as well. I haven't noticed much anxiety since I started it. I hope it works for you.

Raven: sounds like a good idea, mixing exercise with earning $$. I wouldn't mind doing some dog walking myself.

Heather: Cool, a real vacation sounds so awesome. I'm envious.

Trish: Conrats on the little one. So glad to hear you both are doing well. Hope to see you around in here more. Keep us posted on the baby.

Sassy: I'm not a smiler either. I have always been told to smile more. I hate it and it makes me smile less.

Good night all...

Well am feeling ok...I have a meds appt next thursday I am really going to see if i can get a low dose of lexapro because it worked very very well with my mood and with the wellbutrin to keep off the crying and no energy i should be good to go. I am just back to the point I have to MAKE myself be happy or in a good mood. Its really bad when my foster dd tells her friends she doesnt know if Ill be in a good mood when she wants to ask bout them coming over...LOL...There is just a lot going on and i tend to loose patience and little things aggrivate me and I need to just chill and calm down I think that will help.

ON A positive note I managed to stay at my calorie range. Before I ate supper I typed in what we were having then measured it all out so I could still have a snack I got at the store!! I was soo happy and it felt so good to not have a guilt hanging over my head for going over my limit. Like I could have snacked now late night but since I did well with my calories I dont want to screw it up... Ok well have a good night!!!

Good morning everyone!

Snowing again here! blah, when is spring arriving!! I'm home today, so that makes me happy.

Hope I'm hoping that the celexa works with no side effects. The adjustment period is yucky tho

Hope you are all doing well.
Take care all,
K

I have been doing well with calories the last three or four days I have done great stayed level. When I first started tracking calories I was all over the chart but now I have an idea of what to eat and how much. It feels good to know that I am staying on track. I am slowly getting on track it feels good!! Ok gotta go just thought I would check in!!!

Hi everyone, I also wanted to check in. It's really cold here as well. This has been a difficult week for me and with tom I'm feeling extra down. I'm going to see my doc next week and this time I just have to stick with it because I really do want to get better.

Just wanted to say hi also. I've gotta take a shower and get to bed. Today was my first day back at work. It wasn't too bad. I may apply to a restaurant to wait tables part time tomorrow. I haven't told df yet. I'm kinda still deciding. That would be job #3. We need the $$ though. He's really down about work being slow.

Ok, night night.

Where are you peeps? Did you all start the weekend early?

I put in an application at the restaurant tonight. Hopefully it won't be thrown into a pile a mile high. We ate sushi tonight and spent way too much $$. Just the problem I'm trying to fix. I often work against myself.

What are you all doing this weekend? There is so much I need to do around the house. Check in tomorrow.

I'm in the 'not much happening' boat also. I went to work, took a nap, then overate. Pretty much just another day!

Buddly, I had to be at work at 6am too, hence the nap.

It's rainy here but I don't mind it. Have a good Sunday girls.

I HATE TOM because all I want is chocalte and soda....which is awful for my calories...today was the first day I went over my calories but I walked to the park and did stuff to make up for it but still....BLAHHH...Like I want to go do something but no energy to go do something. I want to run down to the store and get chocolate and a soda but I dont have the energy. JUST BLAHHHHHHHHHHH ok anyways I agree spring is almost here I cant wait I love spring and fall cause they are just the right tempature not too cold and not too hot!! The good news is I am losing the 3 lbs a week just by tracking the calories if I put more excercise in I would totally rock but that will come you have to start somewhere. I am doing well at controllying my food if I had only known it wasnt as hard as it seemed I would have done it sooner. You do have to have self control but for most days I am able to eat be full and have a snack later...DAYS like today is when it is hard but they dont come very often!!! Enough from me...lata
