I am finding myself running around between helping a friend set-up a new booth at an antique mall and I am trying to decide find a job that fits me.
I have not taken the time to sit down and plan out some meals. Easter snuck up on me and I wasn't ready.
Yesterday I did not really get to start my Atkins induction phase plus I have been eating food with since Sunday gluten so my joints and muscles are burning and aching.
The stress of trying to find a job before my unemployment benefits run out in early May is causing pain from the back of my neck down to my toe joints. I need to haul my assets to the community center and take a water aerobics class for some pain relief. I think I can squeeze this in tomorrow morning. I love working out with my fancy senior ladies in the morning. They are all so lovely and friendly plus I love to hear them gossip about their friends....makes me giggle on the inside. They probably talk about me too but who cares!
For a late dinner last night I ate some whole grain Wasa crackers with mayo, tureky ham and American cheese but today I am paying the price for convenience rather than making some eggs last night. Planning is so key for my program to work.
I have to leave for another job interview in about 15 minutes so I am going to grab some string cheese and a small bag of almonds as I run out the door. I am excited about the job interview because this is a chance for me to finally get out of a healthcare analyst role and work with my hands. I would be working six hours a day with physically challenged adults working on art projects in an art studio. I know that I would flourish in this kind of work environment.
I am turning 46 on this Thursday and I am sooooo tired of being fat, being in the wrong job and being in pain. I know what I need to do and how to do it but I must follow through on the changes that I want to implement. I will have to start asking myself on a daily if not hourly basis, "How bad do you really want the change, Ene?" I am worth it. I just need to remember this!

I am on the right path and I think that Atkins is the BEST plan for me to follow. I will be incorporating gluten-free elements so I can manage my fibromyalgia symptoms. I am on my way to something great.....because I BELIEVE IN ME!
I started a gluten free lifestyle change in early January and bought a lot of "gluten free" products from Trader's Joes and Whole Foods in late January and February.
Because I was not counting ANYTHING as I transitioned my eat habits I gained weight and I was not happy about that. On the positive side I did see a large decrease in my physical pain. For the first time in over a year I was able to go without any daily pain meds.
I started the induction phase of Aitkins about two weeks ago and was doing well until the beginning of last week. All I wanted to eat was CHOCOLATE and MORE CHOCOLATE. I gained 6 pounds for indulging myself so I am starting over again but that is okay.
I am going to start my induction on April's Fool day plus I love to start new weightloss plans on Monday.
