MSBFGE - 26 Days to go.....quitting, kinda, sorta

 Hey Everyone  

It's FRIDAY and we are ready to party    I usually come here and share my weekend battle plan but I have decided to kinda, sorta quit for now.  My DH is facing possibly losing his job and my stress eating is winning the war right now.  I have not slept in days and that has a big effect on ones control.

Not going on a bender or anything, but just can't seem to focus.  I lost 8 pounds and still have time before the trip.  I have not owned a body garment since losing weight but may end up getting one for the trip.  I want to lose about 20 pounds to get back to where I want to be, and will do so....

You guys have been AWESOME!  I am not going anywhere, still will post and you guys keep it going, and help me help you.  I don't want to gain anything I  have lost and when this "issue" passes I will be able to focus on ME again.

I think the lack of sleep is having a big impact on me.  Thank goodness it's the weekend.  

Later Botts  

Take care,
Kathy

(((( HUGS )))) 
Unfortunately I know how important sleep is our life and how lack of it - makes life very difficult. 
Please take care.

 Yeah the thought of him losing his job at his age is frightening....no one wants to hire you if you are in your 60's...

Thanks!

Take care,

Take care Kathy.  My DH has been unemployed for a year and a half so I know all about that stress and stress eating.  Hang in there.  You are doing great and this rough patch will pass. 

 I have my fingers crossed but the waiting is terrible.  The boss is suppose to come in this weekend.  If he still has his lap top then I know he is ok.  He was fired once before and man they come in and take your laptop first thing...

Thanks for the good thoughts.

Take care,
Kathy

Kathy,

Hang in there!

 Oh Deb,

I needed a good laugh  

Love it!

Thanks,
Kathy

Kathy, you need to sleep!

I have been where you are and when I finally got sleep I was able to put everything back into prospective (sort of).  It took a few nights of Tylenol PM to get me back to the right frame of mind.

Please do not wait too long to get some much needed sleep.  You are not a Quiter.  You are the AWESOME one.  You inspire all of us.

Please take care of Kathy.

 Hi Goody,

I know you are right, when it's time to go to bed, I turn the lights off but the old mind is still going and going and going.  Hope to get some sleep this weekend.

Thanks a bunch!!!

Take care,
Kathy

I hope things begin to look up for you and your husband, Kathy.  It is a frightening time with jobs, and I hope that the news you two get is good news.  Remember to take care of yourself through this.  Stress, as I am sure you know, can really work against us....don't let it win! 

We're here for you!  :)
