Well, the holidays are officially over and hopefully all the Hanukkah stuff is packed away by now at my house...me? I am at work :iagree:

Anyway, it was a great holiday. Things got a little dicey on Christmas Eve but I also took the opportunity to get a really great therapist to start to talk to. I figure with the situation with my husband's health, my child's autism, me - working, going to school, studying all the time, well, it was a good time to find someone to talk to. Somewhere along the line I also found out our rabbi, our wonderful wonderful rabbi, is making aliyah to Israel in August!!! :eek: To say I was stunned was an understatement. Stunned, sad, depressed, anxious...all of it. We will, of course, get a new rabbi but this guy is one in a million...really. I am all teared up thinking about it. :sorry:

So now we're in the New Year and I have two food logs to get done by next week when I WI before Disney. According to the WiiFit, I lost 3# between Monday and last night. The WiiFit wasn't impressed surprisingly. :grouphug: I was!!! :tt2: But then I realized I can't lose TOO much weight. I think 10% is my limit and I have to really manage that. Right now, I am around 200 with clothes on which is an 8# loss or 4% leaving 6% for the next 4 WIs!!!!! :confused: I am sure I won't show a huge loss in Feb simply because of the Disney trip but you never know. Right now I am at 34.9 BMI. :hurt: Whoever would have thought THAT would be BAD news????? :ohmy:

I am also trying to plan what kind of shakes to take to Disney with me for breakfast. I like the Designer Whey with water so I think I may stop at GNC tomorrow and pick up a couple. That way, I can also use it straight from the room and not worry so much about a nasty, greasy breakfast bar!!! :biggrin:

Hey SS...so glad to see you back! Hope your Hanuakkah was wonderful! Have fun counting down the days to Disney! It's nice to have something to look forward to...I'm so jealous...Disney tickers are just so much more fun to watch then 6 mo. diet ones (well, they are!)! I had so much fun on the websites planning our one day at DLRP last year...you would have though it was our whole trip! I hope you have some great ADR's lined up (shakes at Disney? OK, breakfast isn't my fav there although the beignets at POFQ last trip were pretty yum...I know BLASPHEMY here on LBT!). Are you staying on-site? See ya! -BG
