I wasn't sure what to expect out of today's weigh in. I just kept saying over and over again, before I got on the scale: please don't have gained! I'll admit the stress of Ryne's situation has gotten to me, at times, this week. He tried to go to school on Friday, as it was just a 1/2 day, but 1/2 hour into the school day, the nurse calls me to pick him up. His tummy has really been bugging him, he says even more than before. Now, he has a nasty cold on top of it all. Anyway, after I picked him up, I went right through the McD's drive thru and ordered myself breakfast and Diet Coke... Oh yeah, 2 breakfast sandwiches (sans meat of course), hash brown and the soda. That was certainly the worst of my sins, but it wasn't the greatest eating week for me. Having said that, I definitely did way more right, than I did wrong. I got my walks in, except for Friday, when I virtually stayed the whole day in bed. I just wasn't snapping out of it. So, that brings me to today's weigh in, 2 lb loss. I'll take it! I'm proud of it!
I weighed in a day early, as Ryne's appointment was changed to tomorrow. So, we'll be heading over to Seattle in a few hours. The appointment is first thing tomorrow, and I pray we get some sort of answers. Lord, do I pray, that we can get him to feeling better.
Instead of staying with friends, I decided to get a hotel room. I knew that was a surefire way to get Cal to agree to come (although, of course he really has no choice). Caleb LOVES hotels. Now, this is Seattle, and I was lucky to find a room, since the Seahawks are playing today. It was spendy, but it's a shithole Travelodge. I showed the online pics to Cal, and he was so excited. Ah, to be a kid again :) We are taking Jesse to a boarding facility. I've never left a dog at one of those things, but it's supposed to be nice.... I feel really bad, given her background. I don't want her thinking we aren't coming back for her. I've forgiven her for nearly getting lost the other day, after she went after those deer :) She's my little stinker.
Anyway, it's 5 weeks in, and I feel great. I have a long way to go, but I am not 13 pounds lighter. Really, I promise you...if you are wanting to get started. You can! If I can do it, ANYONE can do it. I still have a brain that tries to talk me out of it, nearly every minute of every day. But that voice is getting softer. I'm not going to let that voice win. Here's hoping you find your inspiration. If you ever feel like you need to talk to someone, I'm here.
Take Care,
Jen
