Debinator's Journal, 30 July 2010

As I expected no loss this week. I guess I am lucky to have maintained after last weekend. I will be happy with the fact that I have a flat line instead if an increase in weight. With all that is going on in my life right now it is no big surprise that I haven't lost this week. Dad is still hanging on, but getting weaker by the day. It is so sad and hard to watch this man who was ever so proud and healthy waste away and suffer the loss of dignity that cancer brings toward the end. Add to the mix a few positive things such as preparing to take my blackbelt test (monday) and getting ready to leave for vacation to Roatan on the 7th, my world is a little crazy right now. Sometimes I feel guilty for the good things that are going on in my life, even though my father's wishes are that no matter when "IT" happens that I continue on with my plans. He even apologized that he couldn't come for my Blackbelt promotion-he said he really wanted to be there for it. God how I love my Dad! Even if he can't be there I will do my best to make him proud.
156.0 lb Lost so far: 14.0 lb.    Still to go: 6.0 lb.    Diet followed reasonably well.

I know from personal experience how very hard this time is for you!! These painful experiences teach us to appreciate the little things and to take nothing for granted!! Deb, positive thoughts are being sent your way.. and prayers for your father are being said.

I thank you for the prayers and the positive thoughts. I am trying to be grateful for what I do have. I am doing my best to not get mired down by the negative things going on right now and concentrating on the positive instead.

I'm sorry to hear about your father, and happy to hear about your upcoming black belt test. Everything seems to happen in light and dark. For every negative there is a positive. And even inside the negatives you can find the positives if you keep your eyes open. I know this is a tough time for you, but that you are strong and will come out on the other side. You are in my thoughts as well.
