OK, Ok, ok....where to start.
I am trying to learn to say fuck it at work. These people are a-holes most of the time and I am just not going to deal with them. I am tired of it. I try. There is only so much I can do. *sigh*
I am down 3.7lbs in 5 days. Not sure how that happened but it makes me happy. I am not going anywhere near the cafeteria at work ever again. I am doing things slightly differently-protein shakes made with milk in the morning when I first get up. Water, coffee, iced tea all day. Sensible dinner including a couple of Oreos (I have a wicked sugar addiction so I cannot skip sugar completely as hard as I try. Someone will die if I do and it might be me) and then my vitamins-daily multi, cayenne, DHEA, bladderwrack, flaxseed oil pill, super B complex, and cloves (or cinnamon depending on which I have, right now it is cloves). Thats the food, now for the exercise-45-60min of walking/running and 30min gym in the morning on most days. Sometimes I sjkip the gym and just do the walking/running. 35min to ???? walking, wii fit, crunches, push ups, etc. So, usually it works out to about and additional 60-90min of exercise. Bed between 8:30-9 up at 4 and all over again. Kinda lame but hey, if it works, it works and right now it is working. Not sure why considering I have been doing this for months. Well, I added the protein shakes. Maybe thats it?!? I almost had a heart attack on Sunday-talked to mom and she told me my stepdad had lost 25lbs. He is like 60yrs old. I thought well, if he can do it, so can I, I USED to be a pro at losing weight. So, thats my motivation. That and the Youtube series I watched. I should post those videos here....
One other thing that might be helping is that my Boston boy KNOWS pretty much everything about my food issues. It is something we talked at length about years ago. He knows just to be there when I have a big food crisis. I don't talk about it incessantly but sometimes it feels good to not have this secret that I have been carrying for 20+yrs.
I suppose....I should do some work. Yuk.

Hey girl!!
Sorry your co-workers are such shitheads. That really sucks to work with people you can't get along with.
3.7 lbs. in 5 days? I'm jealous. The only thing I'm losing around here is time.
And I like how you put that; "I used to be a pro at losing weight". god, I feel the same way. What happened to the old us? How do we get it back?
Hope you keep posting. I love knowing how you're doing.

Yup, I used to be a pro as well, but now all I can do is gain. Shit, I need to loose 5-10 lbs but not more than that, too afraid that the illness will kick back in beyond that point. Not really sure how to do that, I am not really good at doing it the healthy / slow way. Maybe I will go on a shakes only diet for a week or so...
Don't let your co-workers give you a hard time. Do you have anyone to support you at work / help you say no more often?
i miss you hun xxx
