Well, here it is in the middle of June, I have been on this very emotional roller coaster...I have finally got my self back on the wagon since last week...
My life seems to have gotten even more stressful...I took on a full time job (from part-time) to a new position...I am not liking it too much...the man i work for is very hard to work for...I don't know how long I can take him...
Anyway, I am back on the wagon...I have been doing very well. I need to lose 15 lbs to get back to where I was before Christmas...and then possibly lose another 20...
I WILL NEVER GIVE UP...
I am feeling a little better about myself because I am not binging...I don't know how or why I let my self get sooooo bad...it just happens--spins out of control...
So...I will shoot for another good day,
ONE DAY AT A TIME...
:rose:

Quick note...
I just did my stair stepper for 6 minutes...
I started out fast, then went slow...
its a start,

Otto never give up thats what it about. you keep on going and you will succeed. stress is so bad for us and sometimes work causes alot of stress. i am glad your back and its a new start for you too.:rose:

It's lovely to have you back - I missed you.

Sorry to hear that your job is stressful, but a big well done for not binging all the time to try and cope with it - its a big achievement, even if you don't understand why all the time.

Anyway, see you soon, and have a great day.

Welcome back Otto, I missed you!! It's hard working for a difficult boss ... I hope you'll adjust... I know 'cos I used to work for several. That's good that you did the stepper today ... have a good day ahead!

THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE WELCOME BACKS--YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST-CJ5, JOANNE, SANDY, MS. CHUCKLES AND CHINA DOLL!!!!

I missed you guys a great deal and I will try hard not to disappear again... I just really let go... BUT NOW I AM BACK!

I am ready to do this with you all-through the good and bad times-WE WILL DO IT--ONE DAY AT A TIME!

Today was another good day. We were going to go for a bike ride but the rain moved in...so maybe tomorrow night. I will go do the stair stepper again tonight...

I watched Dr. Phil today. I think it was a rerun, but he is so good in getting to the bottom of things. His new show is starting soon. I could really relate to what the people were saying.

We don't live near alligators at all...today they found one--in a creek --less than a mile from our house--big news here in our small town.

My kids are playing in the kitchen building a small city...I just love listening to them playing so nice (no fighting)...

Have a good day!
I won't be able to check journals on a daily basis because of my schedule...hope to check them soon!! FEEL FREE TO LET ME KNOW HOW YOU ARE DOING RIGHT HERE!!!

Hi! Just saw your jouranal and wanted to stop in. Great attitude! Your enthusiasm is wonderful.

Cute about your kids building a city. My daughter loves to get into her blocks and build towers. I think it's great for their development.

Keep up the positive outlook and wonderful work!

Hey Otto Just wanted to stop in and say Hi. Sounds like you are doing well and plugging along. I feel the same way. I am posting on a new website but pop in here once in awhile. I'll e-mail you soon and catch up. Right now we are at the library and Brielle wants me to read her a book. Loved when you mentioned the kids playing nicely. I just love to hear them happy. How is your husband's health been lately? Sorry the job is difficult. OK I am really going now.

Hi Andrea-nice to meet you. Positivity...oh yes...one of the major keys. Thanks for your encouragement.

Hi there buddy Sharon. Its funny...we happened to go to the library today too...we went to pool to go swimming and it was closed for a swim meet party so we went to the library, read one book there and brought home a bunch...read with the kids, yup, yup... It is great to hear from you and I want you to tell me how you are doing...maybe i'll pop over to your journal tonight or over the weekend...
hubby is doing okay this week...
they found 2 more alligators this week, they think someone left them lose...
they also found 2 dead crows...supposedly infected with west nile virus...that is really scary...

I did good today again... I AM FEELING STRONG...
HERE'S TO A GOOD DAY TOMORROW...

WE CAN DO THIS, ONE DAY AT A TIME.
:rose:

Hi Otto

Alligators, dead crows - all go where you are. Seriously though, sounds pretty scary to me.

Well done on another good day. They all add up, don't they.

Hope you have a good day today too.

Chuckles

Thanks for stopping in Chuckles...

I had another good 2 days...no binging...I feel good this week... a great accomplishment these two weeks...

I am not going to let new boss get to me...
I must have a magnet on me to these "bad bosses" - I just latch on to them...

took the kids through drive threw at McD(s) and I DID NOT HAVE ANYTHING FROM THERE. I HAD A BIG SALAD...
HAPPY, HAPPY...
NOW, I JUST NEED TO MAKE SURE I DON'T GO NEAR THEIR LEFT OVERS IN FRIG...

Have a great weekend...
this is short and sweet cause I am going to go check a few journals....
