The Truth Is…
April 11, 2011 | Filed in: Glow,Main
  • I really, really love my job. 
  • I really, really love my boss.
  • I really, really love the rest of my team.
  • I think May will be the start of a more regular schedule where I can get back to a blogging schedule.
  • I really, really love Bob. 
  • I love Callie, my new bike.  I’ll do a review on her soon.
  • As much as I love my job, working in general is not as great for my health.  To wit, I have gained 40 lbs since November, which is when I started at the temp job. 
  • I am sad that I dropped all of my good habits when I went back to work.
  • I haven’t been to the gym more than twice this year so far.
  • I eat out for lunch every day.  And for breakfast every day.
  • I started drinking soda pop again.
  • However, my ulcer has been acting up and I can’t handle soda pop or iced coffee anymore.  I consider this to be a good thing, as I needed to give them up anyway.
  • I need some help, and I am  lucky enough to be able to hire a certain wonderful raw chef to help me out.  I know that she will help me get ahead and then I have the tools to keep it going.
  • I’m not going to start with her until May, though, as I am still in the restaurants for a couple more shifts until after next week and then we have huge meetings the following week. 
  • I still choose happiness. 
  • And I still love you.

    It is so hard to do everything! I have to eat out almost all the time and I always end up slipping off of my diet when I eat out. I go into the lunch or dinner with good intention and then I eat two rolls and dessert on top of my entree. It sucks. I have no self control and I need it! I wish we could eat lunch and dinner together so we could be reminders about food. As for working out – well, there are never enough hours in the day for me. I know you know what I’m talking about. Hang in there and do your best. Remember that your health should always come first!

      each other from afar, though.

      Girl, I have to. If I don’t get this under control, it will NEVER get under
      control. I hit a number I never thought I would!
