I thought I was over eating!

hi all, I have had a rough week and I have given in to temptation and grazed a bit here and there. but you may understand once I tell you about my week. ok 1. my 18 year old son has decided after just a month of college that he wants to drop out and join the Marines!! He has wanted to join for a while now but he had to be off his ADHD medication for a full year before they would take him. well its been a year and we will find out any day if he can join. 2. This same son, has met this girl on the internet, in a chat room. she has moved here to live with my sons best friends mom, the mom was hoping to have some help meeting her bills and having this girl live with her would be like a live in babysitter for her 9 year old. well this girl is just 17 and her mom send her from washington state to see if my son and this girl are "soul mates" Well OMG, this girl has some problems. I think she has minor autism and she dropped out of school in 9th grade to boot. I think my son thought things would be a lot different! did i mention he did not even tell us she was coming until it was too late! 3. My half brother is turning 18 in a few weeks and he has discovered that to remain living in S. California will just be too darn expensive. so he has decided to move here to Kentucky and start his adult life. he wants to stay with us and at first I did not know how long he needed to stay because he does not have a drivers license! But we have agreed just today that he will only stay with us for a week or two then he can get an apartment near the place he choses to work. So as you can see, a lot happened in the past week. and although I did find myself eating when I was not hungry, I did not eat foods that were bad for me! I used fitday today and found out I had just under 900 calories today. so I guess I am still doing great and I have maintained my weight for about 2 months. well thanks for ready this long post Donna 277/150

Okay Donna if that was me I would be eating 3000+ calories a day...maybe even an hour! Stress and craziness really gets me good. You keep up the good work! I need a page from your book. Debbie

I feel for you! the stress is terrible tha tyou are under. My son joined the army right out of HS too and went into the 82nd airborne unit as an ammunition specialist/paratrooper. he has been out several years now. as of today he has joined a circus and i****ting the road at 6 am

UGH - what a weekend!!!!
