I am not sure why I have not been posting lately, a lot of things have been happening at work- not much going on at home (except for my wife's car just died- alternator problems-).
The new system at work is getting easier for me on my nightly closing paper work-- but not for my fellow managers-- I am always frustrated when I have the day off and come back to a record keeping mess-- which I am fearful of when I go into work tonight.. (we have very simple instructions to follow,but the other managers that take my place when I have a day off have one thing in mind.. get out of there...and they do not take the time to follow the instructions, and thus messes my night ending up)
I feel emotionally I am on a kid's roller coaster ride.. up and down.. but not extremely up and down.. I am ecstatic bout my weight loss this week- and yet as the result of my personality I am wondering if there is something wrong with my health-- that is one part of my personality that I wish that I can change-- be satisfied with what is going on.. I feel like I never am.
My wife also told me that I am being too open on facebook bout my weight loss and that I need to cut back on sharing information-- It is not much that I share.. Oh well...
Have a great one my friends..

you should be proud of your weight loss and if you want to be open about it I think you should be. its a lot of work and you are entitled to brag!.. sorry bout work. I think we all have those days. if im not here - no one is my coverage so I always come back to piles... a day off is never worth it. hope tonight is better...

You have the right to be happy about your weight loss and THIS PLACE is just the place to laugh & smile & jump up & down. We are happy for you. I lost 40 pounds a few years ago and one of the SURPRISES that came with that loss was that - even after that drastic loss - I was not ecstatic all the time. I guess I thought after I lost the weight, I would just exist in a perpetual state of happiness & joy. There are still life's stress factors and all of the ups and downs. Eventually I gained back almost ALL of the 40 pounds. So here we go again! Seems to me that "everything is connected to everything" and "it" all goes together in one giant pattern. Work-home-exercise-diet-health-spirituality-loved ones-friends- family-just everything. So let's keep working together to untangle that beautiful pattern and pause to smile & laugh & jump up & down!

Excellent comment, Teacher Try!
If you're like a lot of us and have played the "When I lose weight..." game for a while, it can be a little bit of a let down when you actually do it and find out that your life doesn't suddenly change. I did this once before and I think that's a big part of why I didn't keep the weight off. I was still the same me with same life, just smaller. And in my case, I all those emotional issues I had been squelching down with food for years had to suddenly be dealt with too. And I wasn't prepared for how much losing a large amount of weight puts you in the public eye. I've spent my life in the background... I wasn't prepared for or happy with all the attention I suddenly got and the sudden scrutiny of every bite I took and people thinking they were entitled to ask things like how much I weighed and what size I wore.
As far as facebook, I might agree with your wife. I think this forum is the place to discuss all your weight loss and diet issues because we're all here for the same reason and we can both sympathize with your struggles and celebrate your victories. People tell too much on facebook! That's why everyone is so addicted... it's like a daily gossip column.
