Day 10-Day 22: Old habits are hard to break!
It is so hard when you are sliding backwards to STOP and get back to forward momentum! I am back up to 167 lbs. Ugh! Stopped journaling, stopped tracking my food, stopped exercising. So, ok. Back on track again. So down 1 lb from the original 168 lbs. I have been on vacation last week. Cleaned, cooked, decorated for Christmas. Have to get my two trees up. Will begin the one today. Read a little bit (reading The Girl Who Played With Fire.) I had cooked for Thanksgiving and then we had a birthday party for David yesterday. Can't believe he turned 15! Mad that my two brothers never responded to my invite to come and never showed. My sister and her boyfriend did come for a couple of hours. I felt kind of bad for David. My sister could not stay for dinner. So it was us, my mom, Paul's sister and brother in law and our other friend who is David's God father. It was a nice dinner though. Roast pork, potatoes, string beans, cake.
We are getting Fios in a week or so. Special offer for triple play is almost 1/2 what we are paying Comcast. I will now also have Wi Fi! My Farberware percolator broke after 1 year, almost to the day. Farberware is mailing a new percolator to me. I dislike drip coffee and pray my new coffee maker comes soon!
My friend gets "leftover" food from Panera Bread. He brought over a huge trash bag full of pastries on Saturday. I ate a whole bunch. NO MORE! I hate the way I feel right now! I went right back to old habits, sneaking food, etc.
I go back to work tomorrow and I am dreading it. Had a nightmare last night that I got 9 fires tomorrow. I have to not stress. I have been SO tired this last week. Have to eat better, go to sleep earlier, get more exercise.

Our need for balance - we WILL achieve it.
Be very gentle with yourself - you truly have been surviving alot.
Feel proud for all you accomplish - in spite of all you have faced.
Gentle ((hugs))

Overeating leftover foods seems to be going around. About 20 years ago Don brought home a huge chocolate cake from a conference...in San Francisco. Then he promptly forgot about it. You guessed who ate it until I finally threw the rest away. I understand.
Glad you had time to do some decorating. I\'m waiting for a repairman for my broken washer. Getting lots done.
Take care,
Angela
David is 15 already! He is sure growing up! Hmm....drivers training must be looming! Are you ready for that one??????
OK so you quit all the things you should be doing to lose weight. Are you ready to get back into the mix and start losing those pounds again? We can do this together!
Happy Birthday to David. Are you ready for him to start driving in a few years?
How awful your brothers didn\'t respond. Rude.
Good luck with going back to work.
Ok you slipped.. now step forward and continue your plan. we all have our moments of weakness or slips. it\'s done and your now starting fresh. hugs
