I Don't Even Know What To Call This One.....

Well, first off, I am down one more lb this week. I would like to have seen a bigger number, but I guess as long as it's not a gain, it's still a good number. Have been under a tremendous amount of stress lately, and I have heard that stress causes weight gain, so I suppose that I must still be doing something right with my weight loss efforts.

I am very upset and stressed out about my employment situation. Originally, hubby and I decided that I would stay home for a couple of reasons. First of all, I was just completely miserable being in the truck. Being there is the main reason for my weight gain, and inability to have healthy food choices. And secondly, our mileage kept falling. They were unable to get many good loads, there-for many of us drivers were not making any money. We only get paid for the miles we drive. We don't make any money waiting for them to find us a load, or anything else when the truck is not moving. They have apparently acquired some new accounts, which should mean the ability to get us all some more miles. Since I have been unable to find other employment at this time, hubby has asked me to get back in the truck and give it another try. I have been asked to give it three months. If things do not work out in that time, I am free to do what I want at that time.

I am so Not happy about this. Damn economy! There aren't any jobs anywhere. We really do need the money, so I have to do this. Sure hope it works out better this time. Sounds like we will be leaving Friday-ish. I have a lot of things I need to do and to take care of before I leave. It's going to be a busy next couple of days.

I am also upset about the fact that I will not be able to weigh regularly. We would usually be gone for two to three weeks at a time. I will weigh again before we leave, and then every time we get home. I was considering just not doing the whole blog thing anymore, because I really wanted to try to be more consistent, (not that that has been working real well for me lately), but I still need to keep myself accountable. Now more than ever. I don't know when I will be able to weigh or blog from now on, but I do know that it will be every chance I get. Like I said, I need to do this now more than ever. I need to do this for ME.

I have figured out how to get to all of the blogs that I read, on my phone. I can get to mine, too, but I can't seem to find how to post something new to it. If I get that straitened out, I could update that way, but still not a new weight number till I get home and get on the scale. I know from experience that I will not have much time or opportunity to pull out my laptop and do anything on here, but I will try. I know I'm gonna miss this.

Till we meet again, God bless you all. I will be back as soon as I can, and I am hoping it will be with good news.
