Chants's Journal, 16 January 2008

Hello everyone!

I'm so terribly sorry that I've been awol from here for sooooo long but sooooo much has been happening in my life!

Ok so you knew that I'd started a new job (and the food van is like a magnet btw!!), but what has been keeping me off here for so long is that my father arrived with no notice the week before christmas and with his parents on holiday, and my sister with no space in her little place, I had no option but to have him stay with us! He's getting along great and is looking for work but having your father live with you for the first time since you were 5 does begin to take it's toll sometimes - we are finally bonding as father and daughter which is good. We were given notice christmas eve where we were living that the landlord was moving back into the property at the beginning of Feb and I got my ass into gear and started looking straight away for somewhere bigger - we got the go ahead by our new landlord to move on the 5th Jan and we were packed and moved on the 9th Jan! And right in the middle of all this emotional drama with the move, I was shocked to the very core of me when my beautiful and amazing Gramma passed away last Monday very suddenly! I miss her sooo much it is incredible and am trying to figure out how to go on through the rest of my life without her wisdom and guidence she was always renowned for! You know, I never imagined not having her in my life and I suppose that is why I'm taking this so hard!

I'm going to admit, I've not weighed myself since Christmas nor have I been following any good eating or excercise habits so I'm very afraid to say, I'm slowly putting on the weight I had lost in the latter part of last year! That is to change though, I've set my mind to get back on it and get down to the goal weight I set for myself! I will start with the excercise first and by the end of the month, when I have been paid, the diet will be back on! (supporting my father is sucking my bank account dry!!!)

I hope all my buddies are succeding in their goals and I'm off now to check your latest journals and give you a whey-hey!

For now.... Baby steps ladies and gents!

It is understandable that you have not been able to follow a diet and exercise program. It sounds like you've been busy. It is hard when you have a parent/relative move in with you. My hubby's grandparents live with us and sometimes I want to tear my hair out!! I know now that you're back, you're going to succeed!! We're all pulling for you and are here if you need to vent a little!!

Having a busy life Jadenby, is no excuse though was it? I should have tried harder and pushed myself to get through all the obstacles that were put in my way - easy to say now that I did let life get in the way! I WILL succeed and I WILL get to goal - no excuses and no obstacles will stop me this time!

I'm sorry about your Gramma! I know it hurts to lose a loved one but although you will never forget her... time will heal all wounds. I can see why following a diet plan would be difficult right now w/ everything you've been going through but you'll get back there!! We're here all the time if you need to vent! Be good and try to see the good in everything. Hope everything works out for you! Good Luck!!
