Yes, I've had a terrible diet since I last posted. Life has changed significantly for me in the past few weeks. The day after my last post, I learned that my job was officially ending in two days. I knew my job would likely end soon -- actually, it was supposed to end back in August, but circumstances allowed me to hang on for an extra month. But then circumstances changed, and I couldn't postpone the inevitable. I consciously used the end of my job to eat and drink over the next few days, completely wrecking my latest surge of progress.
Since the end of my job I've been in a holding pattern. I left the job knowing I had a strong chance at getting one particular new job, then I got a better offer a few days later from the same organization. I'm really excited about the opportunity, but confirmation of that job appears to be stuck in some red tape. So I'm waiting . . . I meant to use my free time to get more exercise in. Some days are more successful than others, however.
I took time to visit and babysit my sister's kids last week, and did really well in part because my mom was there to "support" me (i.e., be there as my "monitor" me even though she doesn't realize that's how I use her in such circumstances). But I eliminated the progress I made this past weekend -- I actually surprised myself this morning with how much weight I had gained in just a couple of days. I'm at a new peak. I will say that I did have a nightshirt on, but I don't think it weighed that much, so I'm using today's weight as my new peak. Here's the scary number:
202.6 lbs.
AAAACCCKKKK!!!!
I've got to do something. I DID walk 30 minutes today. But I did NOT eat well. I had way too many calories. Don't know how many, but it was a lot of pasta, so I know it was too much. Now I feel too full and never want to eat again. Wish that feeling could last longer than overnight . . .
