katrinat's Journal, 10 Jul 08

My weight is slowly creeping back up-- I am going to have to get strict about exercise if I want to stay down! My scale this morning said 146! And my tummy is starting to get a roll again! Oh, well, I'm sure I can turn it around. I just have not been being careful at all this week.

Yesterday was a pretty emotionally turbulent day. This whole thing with the hubby-- Gawd, what a mess!!!! Why can't it just be the fairytale romance I dreamed about??

I have to drive about 50 miles each way to the store I'm working at today, but it's a nice drive out in the country, so I will enjoy that.

Oh, yeah-- my son is 11 today!!!! I can't believe my baby is that old!!!! My oldest daughter will be 18 in November-- I am so not ready for all of this growing up stuff!

I have some kind of a rash on my lower arms-- I'm thinking it may be from doing dishes at work yesterday. I think I'm allergic to the dish soap and/or sanitizer we use. I normally don't do dishes, so that's what I think it was. Hopefully it goes away today-- I am not going to plan to do any dishes today :)

Had a houseful of kids last night-- my 15 year old had one friend spend the night, my 13 yr old had 2, and my nephew stayed over. I was actually surprised, though, that they were able to keep the noise to an acceptable level and didn't wake us up at all!! Of course, they are all still sleeping right now, but that's okay!

Well, that's it for me for now. Hope everyone has a good day!!

Your gain is still minimal. A little more focus on your food and your weight will start moving on down again. Dish soap could be the culprit causing your rash. If you avoid the soap, it should clear up in a few days or so. I'm not sure who "this growing up stuff" is harder on, the kids or us!

Start writing everything down if you aren't already or you have been slacking on it. Just start being very mindful of what you are eating that that pound will disappear in a flash! Maybe do some ab exercises and that little roll you feel you are getting will disappear too!

Look what you've done so far. It's so easy to let stress get the best of us, but you're stronger than stress. You can get that weight right back off!!!

You're doing just fine... a bit of emotional roller coastering is bound to mess with the scales, as you already know. ;) Stay strong... you've done so great! Sorry things aren't as fairytale as it should be. Hang in there sweets, you deserve the very BEST! I know that you will have it, one way or another! =D Have a great day with son and his bday!! xoxo lylas

The rash could also be a symptom of all the stress you've been through....it can happen. Have a great time with your son today, HAPPY BIRTHDAY to him! =) Don't worry about your weight right now, you have your mind in the right mode, and I'm sure you will lose that gain in no time at all. Have a great day! =)

Stress tends to mess us up sometimes. Take a deep breath and jump back on the wagon. Hang in there, get back on track, and you'll be ok. Happy birthday to your son!
