Im a bad person
I keep telling myself to post yet i just dont. Ive been really busy helping a friend rebuild her trailer. Talk about one hell of a workout. Anyway i wanted to keep yall up dated on the progress. Im down to 263! its highly exciting to me! Next week there will be no way i can post ill be at the ocean on vacation for a week. There will be lots of walking on the boardwalk and beach...maybe if im spunky some running! Thats the one thing i love about summer. The fact that i can get my fat ass out of the house and get moving! OHHHHH more excitement im down 2 pant sizes! YES I SAID 2! i thought i was only down 1 until i went and bought shorts and they were still to big! :) if i get down to a 18 (a number i dont ever remember seeing) then ill be excited times infinity!

Another week bites the dust!
Ladies and Gentlemen taking the time to read my blog first of all i would like to thank you for reading! Secondly its weigh in day and im proud to say im down 2.6 more pounds bringing my total weight loss for the month to 10 pounds!! Im down to 265 and i can say im extremely happy! I havent seen this weight in YEARS. I actually did a happy dance and screamed like a little girl when i saw that weight.
And on top of that if youve read prior you all know ive had some bad sugar issues...well im proud to say that ive been in the normal range for blood sugar for a week now and plan to keep it that way. Whoever said you cant battle diabetes has lost their minds. Its possible and im proof so far anyway!

Weigh in...
Well this weeks weigh in wasnt fantastic. Only lost .2 pounds...But honestly im not going to sit here and cry about it a loss is a loss. Its been a tough week and this coming week is going to be harder. With the loss of my job this coming friday the stress is super high. I know unemployment will get us through and the fact that my fiance is working helps as well. I just need me time. Time to get my head straight and realize who i am and that i can do this...I want this I want this so bad i can taste it. I will reach my goal no matter what it takes!

HECKTIC
So this week has been crazy...as usual. But heres the news. Mondays weigh in i lost 2.4 pounds. Honestly i wasnt even certain i would manage that given all the stress. Its not big for a 2nd week but hey a loss is a loss one way or the other.
Ive been working on training my replacement, one of my dear friends, thank god she catches on fast because im not sure that i will be at the business until the 3rd as planned originally. The main client stopped printing live orders as of today so now we just have backorders to clear.
Anyway today was eventful...I barely ate because i went to work had my morning meal replacement shake and a banana, then a small snack at break time...and then i had a front seat trip to the hospital with my mother (whom i work with). When i walked out into the lobby of the company she was sitting there red faced and breathing awkward. So i (surprisingly calm) started asking questions. Apparently she had a SEVERE vertigo fit. Last summer she had this issue but it came on very slowly this time it was immediate and alot worse to the point that her fingers were numb. I contacted my fiance and he was at the hospital in no time, I contacted her husband and he was there in about an hour (he works further away). They did finally discharge her and sent her home with dizziness meds and meds to keep her from getting sick.
If its not one thing its another i swear. It was a good thing i was with her though because they had the usual bazillion questions to ask her and her breathing was so erratic that she was having a hard time answering so i made sure that i tried to help them as much as i could.
Oh and not to mention me and my fiance were almost in an accident around the corner from our house because some asshole decided he was going to back out of the driveway without looking...REALLY!??? we have ALOT of little children that live here you have to pay attention...if that had been a child he wouldnt have seen them at all and hit them.......people these days.
Anyway given all the crap going on im doing well...under my points (not so good) but at least im still eating right instead of the junk i used to. This weekend we have the Tea Party in Chestertown MD...TONS of temptations are there all those wonderful foods. I may indulge in a funnel cake...since that is a weakness when im at fairs...but other then that i will stick to water and maybe pack a snack :) its getting easier dispite it all :) Until next post!

Sorry
Ive been out this week because of the stress ugh. Found out the end date isnt this coming friday but June 3rd...so i have a little time. Luckily because its considered a lay off i will be able to get unemployment but because its not temporary i do need to look for work...yay. Im going to take a month to myself...i have a vacation planned in july thats already paid for and im NOT losing all that money.
But anyway, ive tried my damndest to eat right this week...but im not sure how i did weigh in is tomorrow and im hoping for the best. Im at the point now where im kinda over being without a job soon...kinda pissed about it after being there for 10 years i feel like ive been tossed away...so its whatever ugh.
Wed was an active weather day (youll learn im a weather geek) we had tornados touch down in good old kent and queen anne's counties (in maryland) 1 was confirmed it was an EF0 with 65 mph winds and it went 3 miles. Lucky is it was only in farm land so it wasnt as bad as it could have been. One was forming about a mile or 2 from my home but it didnt really make it.....thank god!
Today the fiance and i went fishing one of our favorite things to do together. I caught 12 fish Catfish and Perch, and he caught 20 of both as well...of course he was showing off about it...but its ok because this is the most hes caught this year lol normally im the only one catching anything at all.
Well ill post again tomorrow after my weigh in.......wish me luck!

When it rains...it pours...
So we all know that i had a bad day yesterday...Well as if things couldnt get worse...they did. Yesterday afternoon they had a meeting at our work with several people because they were the chosen ones to be layed off. Well that just sucks! We all knew this was coming but i guess no one was ready to face reality. Well im the print room operator...and well someone has to print orders so i thought i was safe (but not in the back of my mind) today my boss came and talked to me...guess what im in the same boat now. It was either 4 hours a day or not work...4 hours a day is really not worth the gas to me or the time. Id rather see someone who is in the company who is working 8 hours a day get this position.
Needless to say today SUCKS. Tenitive last day is May 27...which is subject to change and be later or earlier...who knows. So now i need to get on the ball and relearn how to write an essay and file unemployment once this happens. *sigh* My boss was fighting so hard for me...i appreciate that so much. I almost think shes more upset then i am...we were both crying...but frankly i knew in the back of my mind something was coming...guess i just didnt want to believe it.
So anyway we know i like my ice tea. Well i have found an ice tea by 4c (i may have wrote about this) that i actually love! its diet and made with splenda...i have to get used to the taste of a power tea since i used to brew my own...but its pretty good. Im still rather excited about my 4.2 pound loss...i hope i can keep it up considering the next 2 weeks are royally stress worthy...until later my friends.
