Shocked by the scale today. I swore I would never go back to this point. I've allowed the stress from this past year to overwhelm me and distract me from my goals. I could go into details, but in a nutshell, I traveled 14 times from Ohio to Florida to help take care of my ailing father until his death in May, all the while trying to keep my part time job (which I ended up losing) and helping my daughter plan her wedding and trying to be there for my son's college graduation, in addition to being caregiver for my disabled brother, and holding two Board positions on two local charities. And since then, I am settling all of my father's estate issues and trying to sell his house in FL which is difficult because I'm back at home in Ohio. Phew! Then came the holidays. I am just going to be more aware of what's going into my mouth this week. No time for exercise but I will make a plan for that soon. I think I might go back to Jenny Craig for a jump start, but truthfully I want to cook and eat healthfully without the pre-planned meals. I'll see how well I do this next week. Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers for STRENGTH!!! Thank you -- you buddies helped me so much before all this! I know we can do it again together!
