Licorice1977's Journal

Hi!

Sorry I haven't written in a while.. my parents were on a vacation for 10 days and it was my responsibility to babysit while they were gone.  Well, when I wasn't sick, that is.  I've got a bad cold.  Had it for over a week now.  I think I may have been running a fever when I first got it because I was absolutely sweating in just a t-shirt and jeans, and the house really wasn't that warm.  I'm usually freezing to the point where I need blankets and sweatshirts. I was in bed for two days straight.  Had to tell my younger sister not to bring my nephew over for me to babysit him because I felt so bad and was afraid I would be contagious.

So all that has lead to a slight decrease in exercise:( With this nasty bronchitis I've got (I swear, I sound like I have emphysema:() it's a little difficult to jump around and kickbox.  I feel utterly guilty.  So I've been eating less.  And I've lost 2 lbs. this week. Not a lot, but okay.  My dietitian tells me I'm losing at a steady rate (I did maintain for one week, but it all evens out I guess), and I'm at 116 lbs now.  I hate not having a scale in the house.  I feel weird without it.  There's still talk about putting me into some treatment center, but I don't think it's going to happen.  It's not going to happen.
