Unhappy

sorry about my prep talk and such I can delete it out if anyone objects.
dinner tonight consisted of potato soup, raw cheddar cheese and some nuts.
I really put on weight over the holidays and such that I am the heaviest that I have been in years!
am going to not drink for a while and see how that goes.
and watching my weight.
anyway slow and sure they say.

I have a friend who is looking for support.
She is in a crisis and needing to find an out patient day program, this once a week talk about "meditation" therapy is not working for her. Although It takes a long time to get to the heart of matters and there are no quick fixes.
She needs to quit her job for her own sake and this is what she is struggling with. she teaches strings at a high school. She had already told them that she was leaving after the end of the semester but now she wants to quit now. She can't do it any longer. I feel for her.

Bizi,

For now, I figure you'll be watching things a bit more tightly. Not drinking might help. (Not drinking beer, espeically helps.)

I wonder if you can work out a maintenance plan, not exactly a diet, that you could observe when you are not trying to lose weight, and even when you are on holiday.

I am sorry about your friend. Yeah I don't think "meditation" type talk would help me much either. I hope she finds the program she needs. I quit my job from one day to the next and later was very sorry I did that. No references, etc. If she quits won't she lose insurance coverage, too? If she has other avenues -- sick time, or long term disability -- that might be better. Or if she can find a way, any way, to bite the bullet till the agreed upon time.

I'm sorry you have gained weight Bizi.

I personally don't have any help for that. I am not liking
what it takes to lose weight myself.

But I've been lucky, somehow I've lost another 8 to 10 lbs.
Without lots of trying. I am working to lose some more,
but know just staying at this level till spring is what I want
right now.

Reason is I'm stuck at home with nothing but exercises for foot
right now. Most of the weeks.

thanks
I talked to her today and she said that her boss was extremely helpful/understanding as he has been through a similar circumstance.
I think that she will go thru the school system assistance program before quiting altogether.
I told jeff that I was going to drink tonight and I said that " I am fat and an alcoholic" and he said that "I am ok with that"....

The assistance program should help your friend.

It is good to have a guy who says "O.K." when you make a statement like that
He is not going to get in the way of where you are and where you want to go.

Keep taking care of yourself your way. You deserve good things.

Well looks like January is going to go out nice and warm for us. Wow,
what a difference in earlier this month. But February is to be cold.

Derrick's Plunge this year is going to be cold it looks like on February
7th. Please wish those of us that still haven't raise all our $75.00 to
make the goals.

I can put mine in but I know a couple can't. So we are working to
help them and each other.

Derrick has $50 coming in from the lions club out here. That will make
his $75.00

Bizi,

For the past two years, I went to the U.K. web sites to read the recaps (including what they call the Christmas Special or we call the last show / season finale.

So I already know the plot and how everything happens to get to the end this season.

I enjoy watching it for the costumes and sets (nice) and acting (o.k.).
