Hello all my FS friends : ) Hope you are all doing well : )
Been a busy weekend and I havent been on here much. I went to work yesterday and was told we have confirmed cases of the flu , Eeekkkk not what I wanted to hear. And today I got told that since I worked on the unit with the flu patients yesterday I now am officially quarantined to work on that unit the rest of the week because they are trying to isolate the exposure. I dont really mind but its stressful because so many people are very sick . And it is not my usual unit to work. I normally work on a locked dementia unit. I miss my patients. But I also would hate to make any of them sick if I were to get sick so I will spend the week on another unit and know it is for a good reason. Crossing my fingers that my flu shot works and I dont catch the flu.
So after my stressful day I came home and worked out for an hour. I plan to workout hard this week. I had no loss but no gain when I weighed on saturday. So I am trying to eat very carefully this week and plan to workout everyday.
On a plus note ... I pulled a smaller pair of jeans out of the closet saturday and THEY FIT ... Alittle tight but I wore them all day . That felt great : )

chryssm hi I was glad to here from you , you have been on my mind.I have not been on either we have been painting the living room and it grew into a 4 day job , but we didn't do it right the first time so it took a lot longer this time, next time it will be easier. I did not do all that well 0n eating, I seemed to stay on target with the calories, but was heavy on the fats and carbs so it was not helpful at all. I gained back a few lbs but I suppose it happens that way when I didn't keep track, o well I will get with it now and watch the carbs and fats and do my best to get them down and the protein up. It is so hard for me because I am carb heavy and I blow it there all the time , it does help to tell somebody , it makes me more accountable when I know you will read it ,and I know you will be supportive as well . you have a good week ok and I will to . as I said before tomarrow is mind again. I did good tonight and I am accountable for one day and I have it. talk to you later

Hey kapa ... I wrote back to you this morning but apparently it didnt post ughhh Anyway ... dont get frustrated , sometimes this journey is trial and error as we learn to eat in a more healthy way. We find out bit by bit what works and doesnt. But every discovery is one more step in the right direction. I fight the carb battle myself and now realize that my carb heavy way of eating is what got me to this point. I struggle to eat lower carb too.
Thanks for the support ladies ... The flu scare is now over ... Our confirmed case has now recovered and since I have shown no symptoms in 3 days I get to go back to work on my regular unit tomorrow. Thank goodness , I miss my co-workers and I miss my patients . I cant wait to go have a normal workday tomorrow where I feel at home : )
