A little update

Things have been a bit crazy round here of late... Just before Thanksgiving things at the office went nutso.  Crazy busy.  Many days I am at my desk from 8 am to 8 pm nonstop.   I havent been posting or tracking my food.. because I simply havent had time!  Really eating has been ok.  I am still aware of what I am putting in my face and am pleased to be maintaining right around 305.  I suspect that a fair amount of that is water because my salt intake has been a bit high... anyway.  I am doing pretty good and am looking forward to next month when things will calm down.  the end of December and the beginning of January are always my slowest times. ALSO - husband is flying home for 3 weeks over Christmas to see his family  First time home for him in over a year.  So there is the added stress of knowing I am going to have to be my own wife and BOTH parental units for a while. Anywho.... dont worry about me.  I'm good and pleased to be maintaining my 30 lb loss....  and looking forward to getting back to losing right after Christmas!

Nice to hear from you! Was wondering where you were? Glad you're doing well. Hugs, Bren

I almost posted today to see if you were around... just seemed TOO quiet! Glad things are going well for you in the eating department... you are doing GREAT! It's a tough time of year to maintain- and you are doing WONDERFUL!! Where does your hubby go home to? Sounds like it must be a long ways from you hey?  That would be hard. ME... I'm very use to mine leaving and my doing the single parent thing.... my dh was a commercial fisherman for 25 years of the time we've been together :) He use to go for several months but at the end of his fishing career ... he fished about 5 months of the year and was gone for a few weeks at a time- at most.  Now he has a land job 11 months of the year but still fishes in April with our own rig :)  That's my vacation time :)   I try to look at the rest/relaxation I'll be getting :)  I can clean and cook in MY way and on MY time. If my kids want a simple sandwich for dinner- that works for ME :)  I can put my kids to bed on a weekend and soak in the jacuzzi- WITHOUT being bothered...  I watch the TV I like... I just get to be ME :)   Other than work- I feel FREE :)    But... not over the holidays Anyhow- GLAD to hear you are doing well!  Will be thinking of you as you face the weeks on the home front... on your own. That just can't be fun :(

Hi Vi!  Glad you are not hiding at least! Sounds like you are doing well. Thanks for popping in.
