Whatcha Eating Today VSGers? Saturday, August 11, 2018

Hey all. Just getting going today. Am feeling a bit tired, but that is likely from my sleeping pill wearing off and will fade the longer I'm awake. Last night work was so busy! I felt like I was on my feet most the night, but it was a good night overall.
QOTD: My grandma taking me to raise has definitely made me a stronger/better person. I know I talk about my grandma a lot, but she gave me a life!
Happy Saturday! Rough day for me today so posting late. My dad and stepmom took my kids to the museum for Bugfest so Mike and I could have a date day. We took a ride to Delaware for the day and went to lunch. I have been feeling depressed and sad all day. It seems I always feel like this the day before I weigh in. Therapy is Monday so I will hash this out with her. Everyone seemed to notice today that I'm losing weight which should make me feel good but still feeling horrible in my own skin and just sad.
QOTD - I met my daughters father when I got out of high school at 18 and stayed in a very abusive relationship for 7 years until I got the courage to leave. He was physically, mentally, emotionally abusive in every way. He is in prison now (hopefully forever) for raping a minor. It made me a stronger person and fight harder than ever for what I have now and thank God I kept my daughter sheltered from it and she never knew until she was old enough for me to tell her. I had Celeste at 20 so she also made me a better and stronger person. I finished college and became a special needs teacher and now she wants to follow in my footsteps which makes me a proud mama.
