Well after two weeks of caos and going off the plan I am back. I had a rough start at the beginning of the week. I really didn't start back totally until Wednesday and as of this morning I am already down 5 lbs. Amazing!!! Stress is getting to me bad. Took the hubby to the dr. Monday to discuss some complications he has had since he fell. Then ended up having to take him back to the ER Tuesday because the complications got worse. Finally got those problems under control (I hope) but he is in terrible pain. He isn't sleeping so therefore I am not sleeping very well. Plus my kitchen is torn apart. We're in the middle of remodeling. Which I am worried will effect my food planning but I am working on it. I have had access to my stove so far but that isn't going to last. The other 3/4 of the floor is dirt! Yesterday I made Italian Beef in the crockpot and I have leftovers from that and the other day I diced and sauteed a 3 lb. bag of chicken breast. I used part of that in a stir fry and figure I could use the rest either on salads or something. By the way the Italian Beef was delicous and easy. Just place a 5 lb. beef roast in crockpot. In a bowl mix 10 oz. of beef broth, one package of instant italian dressing mix, and a bottle of peppercinis. Pour over the top of roast. Cook on low for 7 hours. When done shred with a fork. Yummo!!!
I have a funny story. Or at least I think it is funny and everyone else I told thinks it is too. So as I said we are remolding our kitchen. Well on Tuesday we had about 1/4 of the floor pulled up. So we are unable to use the back door that lead directly into the kitchen. On Wednesday my 19 you son says to me "Have you looked at Facebook today?" I said "no, I have been to busy. Why?" He says "Well did you notice my lip?" I looked at him and he has this huge fat lip. I said "what on earth did you do?" He says "I fell in a hole last night." I said "What hole". He says "In the kitchen." I thought I was going to lose it. He knew that there was a huge hole in my kitchen floor. He goes to a friends house that evening and comes home, through the back door and falls right into the hole. I wish I could have seen it. He says that he fell on a 2x6 and it hit him in the mouth. I was cracking up. I even left the light on over the sink because I could just see me waking up in the middle of the night and forgetting and go into the kitchen to get a drink and falling or something. I know I should be a concerned mother and this shouldn't be funny. But it was. He even thinks so. You kind of have to know my son too. His whole life we always tell "Jack Stories" because you never know what he is going to do or say. So I put a big sign on the door that says "UNDER CONSTRUCTION. DANGER. CAUTION. PLEASE USE FRONT DOOR".

Nino, I always fear being the bad mother because I am the same way. My 13 yr old has no coordination and has been in the ER so many times that it doesn't even phase me anymore. DH too - he's just as bad. I would laugh - it's funny as heck. So, how much longer do you think you are going to be able to live w/ a hole in the kitchen? I can't imagine.

Oh, my mom likes to rearrange the living room furniture. She usually does this at least once every 2-3 months. Well when I get up in the morning I go straight through the living room to get to the kitchen for the coffee. One morning I was 1/2 asleep and made it to the kitchen but on the way back fell over the recliner - coffee and all. Wasn't pretty. It did manage to wake me up though.

LOL. I have a coworker that does that too. She says her husband is always complaining because he never knows where his chair will be when he gets home!

Well the sadder part of this story is that her poor 16 1/2 year old Pug is blind and its real confusing for him.

I gained weight when I was out of town also but luckily it came off fast like yours. It was hard getting over the cravings though. I had to go back to Induction for a few days. Glad to have you back.
