Where was everyone yday? Mondays are a hard day or me with work. I came home so mentally exhausted that I didnt want to do any talking about weight! yday was just weird. I forgot to work out when I got home. Dh is on vacation, today being his last day (never mind that hes at work right now grr). And that threw me for a loop.

Did legs and back. I need to do abs, but have found that I really struggle with it after a work out, so Im going to do it later on tonight. maybe I wont be so tired from my workout then.

I'm here but totally swamped with school work. I have enough difficulty keeping up with my regular weekly assignments yet alone trying to write my final papers. I'm really ready to have a break down at this point.

I didn't post because I can't really even think about dieting or exercise right now and I didn't want my stress and anxiety to bring everybody else down. I will probably be sparse in my postings until after May 18th. My final paper is due on May 10th but then I am out of town in Kansas City from the 13th through the 17th.

I hope everyone is doing better than me.

Well... dh put in for a job in Alabama. we still have the job in VA still open, and a new one in VA opens in August... that one hes guaranteed to get. So who knows where we are goign to be at anymore. Im tired of not knowing thats for sure.

I have gained 5 lbs... I have been really good, sticking to calories and all points. Its hard making sure I get enough protein yet still stay within everything. Its getting frustrating.

I have had no sense of taste since last Tuesday Sucks when you are trying to savor the taste of fruits, veggies, hell anything for that matter. I am going to my WW meeting tonight so we'll see where I'm at then. Then off to dr for some drugs
