Out of Jail on to Court

Well, now my kid is out of jail and has court today..  He will face the judge for being intoxicated and behind the wheel..  I have no sympathy for him at all.  This is a good thing.. I have prayed about it and realize it is for the best that this has happened..  Nobody got hurt, he didn’t get hurt.. BUT, he got caught and that was not much fun for him… I’m hoping this will make a big impact on him and the decisions he makes.

I am not grabbing stuff to eat out of stress… I have been sticking with my healthy eating.. I’m trying not to get discouraged though since I took a couple pounds off quickly and now nothing.  I know the drill, your body will catch up…  I need to stay off the scales and quit obsessing.

4AM wake-up call kid in Jail!!

Well, isn’t that a nice way to wake up… My 19yr. in jail… he was driving while intoxicated.. The first thing after I got off the phone, I grabbed the ice cream.. Don’t worry, I put it down and fixed me some coffee instead.. I am feeling very stressed.. I have one kid in jail and the other that won’t work.. He is 19yr. too, they are twins.. Now I will have 2 - 19yr. living at home without jobs.  Boy, I’m such a good mom..  This is not suppose to happen.. I can’t call my parents, my father’s health is not good and they would just worry.. My husband and I are not going to get him. He will have to stay there until court tomorrow afternoon.. I got a call from the bailbonds people and it would take $160 to get him out..  We are not getting him out.  I have a burning feeling in the pit of my stomache, I don’t know if it is because I’m hungry or just very stressed.. All I have had is coffee and water.. I know I need to eat something but I’m afraid if I do, I won’t quit…  I’m kinda hiding out in my office having a pity party.  I don’t know what to do.. I hate it that my kid is in jail but I know I just can’t get him out… I mean I have warned him this would happen if he kept going on that way.. He wouldn’t listen. If it weren’t for the war going on, I’d say MILATARY!  Now, I don’t know what to do..

So Far So Good….. :)

It is day 4 and I’m down 2lbs.  I feel good and I’m snacking on baby carrots and a little cube cheese.. I have stayed away from chocolate and diet sodas.. The weekend is coming up and I’m running the whole time.. Always out, so “out to eat” of course… Anyone got suggestions for healthy eating when eating out??  I think we will probably go to our Mexican place so I’m thinking fajitas  without the flour tortallias.  Any help out there?

Thanks,

Lisa

It is time….. :)

Hi there, this feel kinda weird writing this to, well I don’t know who I’m writing to..  I am so tired of being FAT… I want to be healthy and not run out of breath while walking up the hill to my house from the barn.. I want to feel better inside and out.  I have started my new way of eating and living and I have 2 friends that have joined in.. I will take things a day at a time and do my best to get up off the couch and get moving… I will work on my eating habits and try to improve what and how I eat..

I want to be able to spend more time doing things I like..  I believe my weight and health is holding me back..

I hope having people sharing this struggle with me will help.
