GOOD MORNING to all of my lovely, wonderful, BEAUTIFUL, health-minded Fat Secret Peoples!

Back from West Virginia. It was a bit of a rough trip but then goodbyes always are. They are just trying to keep her comfortable because that is all that they can do. I am trying to stay focused on the positive. She lived a very full life. Lived on her own until the fall a few weeks ago and had 4 wonderful grand kids (my brother's) and a loving family. She was awake and aware on Saturday and recognized both Dave and I, my brother, my uncle, so that was nice. I am glad I went but still very sad in a selfish way. But I also know she never wanted to linger and the waiting is hard on my Dad, so I honestly hope she will not linger too long.

In other news, in the what is starting to seem typical, roller coaster of life that I am on. I found out Saturday morning before driving out to WV that I made the next level! I am officially a Red Jacket now! I will be on Target for my Car THIS month....

I also went on an involuntary spiritual Fast yesterday. I threw up a couple times Saturday night. Some combination of emotions and possibly bad food. So I did not eat anything all day yesterday. Only calories I had was a an Apple Chai at Starbucks. I drank a LOT of water. So as a result I have hit my next mini goal MUCH sooner than I thought was going to be possible last week.

SO my first Friday off was productive and went REALLY well until I got the call that night.


Old Man Scale: Booted TOM back to the curb again this week-end. Thank goodness he is gone. He and Old man scale do not play nice together. I cannot believe I hit my next minigoal! I USUALLY feed depression, but I suppose no one likes puking LOL


Edit to add: OMG Orange!! My forum ticker went Orange WEEEEE *HAPPY DANCE ***
