well before i took a shower last night...i decided to jump onto the good old trusty scale since my bloat was gone....and low and behold...after a day's worth of liquids i was back down to 114.5 lbs....which had been my weight in the mornings before the bloat...so i think im lighter than i was...i think that this bloat was the time of the month where im supposed to have my period...i get all of the side effects (moodyness, being sluggish, hungry (very out of the ordinary for me), a few pimples, and the god awful bloat)...but after the week of that, i tend to lose the bloat and then some on top of that...and i think that being sick with that stomach virus didn't help matters much...i think it took me down further....i'm having mixed feelings about all of this...cuz for awhile there when i was bloated, i was thinking that i was just gaining gaining gaining and that i was gonna be a bonafide fatass...but now that im down again, i have this sick sense of relief washing over mewent to my bff's house and played some games with her and my other really good gf...we played killer bunnies and apples to apples....lol good times..we r getting together to do it again sunday =P tmorrow, im gonna go with my good gf steph and try to finish up my xmas shopping....and then im off to see a musical with my grandparents...these are the ones who love to feed people...so im glad that there is an activity that we can enjoy together that doesn't have to revolve around food!mrs karen the head toddler teacher was out today...she got the illness that's goin around...the one that i had wednesday...so i feel for her....but we have ALL gotten it now......hope it doesn't come around again! but without mrs karen there, i got to bond with another one of my coworkers...and i found out so much about her...she's been an extra in 2 movies...one was called Carpool and had tom arnold and the bitchy waitress off of cheers in it...and another one was some japanese movie that was filmed over in japan that she got to be in while she was studying abroad over there! and she has never tried to watch either of them to see if she can spot herself! i told her to search online for a copy of either of them (but she doesnt know the japanese film's name) and watch them!
