Weight Loss Blahs

The last two months have been a hard one. I had to move back home to Indiana to help my mother. She is a Stage Four Colon Cancer patient on her third surgery (possibly fourth, we find out on Monday) and is on her second round of chemo treatments. All in the last three years. I am away from my fiance (but  I am happy to say he will be moving closer to me in a month). From my salaried position down to working as a Server at a local restaurant, I feel like I have just about thrown in my towel. My waist line is showing it. I am getting married in August and I bought a size down from my current clothing size. My weight loss has not budged since I have moved home. My Doctor prescribed Celexa which I have been taking since my mother was first diagnosed for the treatment of depression/anxiety. I suspect I have Psoratic Arthritis, but when I switched my jobs, I lost my insurance, and I wont be seeing a doctor unless its absolutely necessary. Normally, I am the one giving the encouragement and I rarely write about 'Debbie Downer' things, but I feel like I am the end of my rope. If I am not taking care of the 'family' at home, then I am at my dead end job. I only took a few minutes to write this because I needed to vent. My fiance has been as much encouragement as he could possibly be and I am absolutely grateful that he is my own. 

 

Suggestions, Thoughts, or Anything else?
