Daily Food Journal

Down another pound so I guess I didn't eat too many calories yesterday at all! yippee. Its so weird because I feel like im eating until im full, therefore it defies my logic on losing weight. In the past if I ate til I was full Id gain gain gain. I really have to start thinking like I have a band now.   8:00 am Breakfast: Atkins shake w/one scoop chocolate unjury protein powder blended with ice. I love days that have lots of chocolate in them :laser:.   11:00 am Snack: SF chocolate pudding.   1:00 pm Lunch: Finely chopped pork chop about 1/2 of one + 2 TBS miracle whip. SF Chocolate pudding. Im craving chocolate!!   5:00 pm Supper: 1 cup at most chili w/ground beef + 6 saltine crackers. Too many crackers!!   Vitamins: 1 Viactive multi 2 Viactive Caliciums   Water: 70 oz.   Goal: Cross my fingers and hope I didn't gain today!!

Boy I missed having my journal.

Well I had my fill last Wednesday, Im not noticing much differance. But I have been babying it a bit and not eating anything too solid. Tomorrow will be a more regular diet and we'll see how that sits with me.   I haven't publicly journaled about this yet I don't believe. But something that Im currently experiencing in my life right now is that my husband is sick. He was diagnosed with a brain tumor in the beginning of this year. Its been such a hard thing to deal with. We recently learned that his tumor is not the kind they thought it was so the medication they have been giving him has not shrunk it like they had hoped. The neuro-surgeons don't want to operate at this point because there is a chance that it won't continue to grow, so we ahve to keep a close eye on it and my dh has to stay intune with his body in case he starts to feel differently.   He started hormone replacement therapy today. It will be interesting to see how that affects him. Its supposed to make him feel better, and sure hope it works. My hubby is only 32 years old. Im sure he's going to be alright. He has to be, theres just no other option.

Bandster Bad Girl Here

Ok, I've been totally off program for the past few days. I had a terrible cold and I just ate whatever I wanted. BAD BAD BAD. Starting tomorrow I will get back OP and do this right!! Dangit im mad at myself. I started back to work and I had to bring my baby to daycare. I don't think im an emotional eater but who am I kidding... I must be. Im totally trying to comfort myself with food. Dangit I need to give myself a proverbial kick in the butt and get back to business. I want to beat this obesity!!!! My goal is to eat RIGHT tomorrow, even though it is Halloween. I was thinking about not getting a fill but I now realize I must. I thought I could diet until TDay and then get a fill afterward, but obviously I cannot trust myself. Im going to get my fill and do this, really do this, actually put my band to work for me. Thats it! Its on! :heh:

Bad day today.

Sam seems so edgy and busy all the time. I think its his meds. but worry its him getting sick of me. It makes me sad. Makes me want to eat eat eat eat. Only now am I realizing what an emotional eater I am. Sam wants to build another 4 plex, part of me wants to do that too but I worry its not the best thing for our family/relationship right now. I worry that he wants to keep so busy so that he can be too busy to work on our relationship. I feel like we are ships passing in the sea, don't reallly know each other anymore. I feel like im the same as always but hes changing now because of his medication. Often I wonder if his libido is coming back but I repulse him because of my weight?? Everytime I try to ask him about it he says he doesn't know if its coming back or not. Says sometimes he thinks it is sometimes he thinks it isn't. We got into an argument saturday night, he held a grudge until today. For me once I say my peice the arguments over and I move on, for him it seems he just stays mad for so long. I think its his meds because he's never been this way previously. I hate his stupid tumor! I hope when I get thinner things will be differant. Maybe Ill be more fun and outgoing and turn him on again. Patience patience patience.

Back At Work

Well I finally went back to work after a 6 month period of working from home. Boy its a mess! Im glad im finllay back. My baby is now going to daycare, and luckily she seems to be doing just great. I pick her up and she is happy and bubbly and her normal self. So at least I don't have to feel guilty about that. I planned on working 3 days a week but once I got there I realized I need to work 5 until I get my office back in order. I just really really want to get it running like a fine tuned machine. I can totally visualize the way I want it, I just have to keep plugging away at making it happen. Having employees is so difficult at times. I always feel like such a bully making people do what I want instead of what they want. But I realize that I have to navigate the ship or else it will be chaos. I pretty much made 50 % of my employees pissed this week, im sure the other half will be mad by the end of next week or the beginning of the following. Im implementing new procedures for efficiency and job tracking. For two months im going to have to police what I want done until it becomes standard procedure. I know im going to face a lot of grumbles and greif.. ugh! But I will carry on and make it happen. Ive been through this before and in the end everyone is happier because when the business runs good everyone benefits, customers and employees. I've been going out to lunch daily, having either cheese sticks or hot wings. Luckily I can eat these items easily. I love that when I eat cheese sticks im STUFFED after about 4. I need to check on fitday.com to see how many calories that is. For now, Im just making sure to get my protien and not be pigging out. I haven't been focusing on calories and such. I just have too much on my mind to have one more thing I have to calculate. Along with my business I also have 2 major construction projects Im tracking and keeping finances straight for. Also 1 other major one that is just wrapping up. And in addition 2 minor building projects. When I sit back and think about all that I am responsible for it makes my head spin. But I have time to sit here and journal so I must not be too over-extended. My husband has his Neuro-surgery consult the end of this month, im so busy I haven't been able to stress over this. If anyone reads this entry please say a prayer for my husband. Thank you.
