Wonderful Accomplishment GoinDown! Especially this time of year. Good for you.

I have been working on cookies, yeast rolls and christmas cards all day. Today was my last chance. I am just too tired in the evening by the time I leave work, exercise at the Y and finish with dinner. I miss the days when I was a stay-at-home mom. It would be nice to just work part time but with two kids in college, it would be pretty difficult to keep up with the tution, room and board. Any hoo, I managed not to eat too many of the cookies so far. Everything is going in the freezer until Thursday. I need to get back to the kitchen. I was just taking a break.

I am going to try and drink more water this week.

Today is really important. I cannot go crazy just because it is the holiday. There are already tons of goodies in my house and it will be like this for the next two weeks. Plus my DH and I are so busy we don't have time to cook and end up eating out. I have to remember to keep control or none of my clothes are going to fit(there already pretty snug)! I am going to keep Dixie's advice in mind and not waste my "money" now so I will have some for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.

Good Luck today Girls.

everyone.

So yeah, I basically disappeared for awhile. I lost my job, everything was cut off, and I got an eviction notice. Still no job but I managed to get some money out of my retirement fund and all my basic bills are up-to-date...at least till Jan. Needless to say, I haven't been in the greatest mindset. I pretty much abandoned 3FC, my blog, and YOUtube. I've been eating like crazy and not exercising. I'm trying so hard to get myself back on track. The whole job and bill situation, not being able to see my family for the holidays, and missing the birth of my BFF's baby is just weighing heavily on my mind.

I'm now trying my hardest to get out of this funk. Wiping everything clean. I've decided to change my WIs to Thursday (my birthday is on Thursday this year) so I weighed in today at 262.6 which isn't that bad considering what and how much I've ate the last couple of weeks. I'm also going to start the 100 Pushup, 200 Situp, and 200 Squat challenges.

I've been putting in job applications everyday. I've also decided to go to school....if I can get some financial aid. Hopefully I can and I can start in March. I need some direction in my life. Right now, I'm adrift in dark, unchartered waters. I don't know what I want anymore. Life was so much simpler when I was 6.

I need a good paying job that can bridge the gap until I can get back into the VA. It looks like I'm going back to the call centers. That shall be loads of fun but you can't laugh at the money.

My head is a jumble of thoughts so I'm going to watch the Simpsons and wash dishes. I'm back, I don't know how much I'll be posting but I'll try hard to be consistent.

Merry Christmas!

Hi everyone,

I had an accident on the 9th and burned my foot seriously, I've been on bed rest and obviously unable to exercise. I was able to finish my classes except for one and my foot is healing but I still have a significant amount of pain and can't wear a shoe on that foot. I've even been told to add carbs back into my diet and increase my calories. I weighed myself recently and freaked out when I'd gone from 203 to 211, but then I started taking a diuretic again and within a few days was right back to 203. So, at least I haven't gained weight. I am however depressed a bit because I was losing 10-12 pounds per month and I'm frustrated to not be in onederland today.

However, my new goal is to be in onederland and off crutches (maybe with a cane?) for our mexico vacation (and able to swim) by 1/9.

I'll be back around the new year - visiting family with no internet access.

Awww, weebles sorry about your foot. I do know it takes extra calories to help burns heal. Take care.
