WAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAA :~{}
Can you say stress/emotional eater??? I am so afraid I am going to continue to gain.
I did excellently over the holidays, OK, excellently compared to last holiday. Then, my husband tells me that he is laid off until the end of February. But, to his credit he did wait to tell me until after Christmas (but before the New Year).
I have just been diagnosed with Carpel Tunnel, I get to try the brace for a few weeks, but I see surgery in my future I'm afraid, since the pain hasn't subsided. Thank God it is work related!
My daughters' depression is worse than ever, I am afraid for her. She is in counseling, but her fatigue, insomnia, and mood swings are making the rest of the family walk on egg shells. She takes Lexapro, but she is one of those people who starts feeling better, so quits taking it. I notice a difference in her within 2-3 days of her skipping pills. I have begun putting her pill and a glass of water on her makeup table, and give her 1/2 hour or so before I check on her, if she hasn't taken it, I now stand in her doorway until she does. Sad.
I haven't been into LAWL for 3 weeks, and i am feeling guilty about that, so that is the list of my overeating triggers for the past few weeks.
Any motivation for me out there?
I the guilt of not going to LAWL just adds to my stressers. I live 45 miles from the closest LAWL, and the gas prices are hard to bare considering my husbands lay off. I guess I could use the phone tho, huh? UGH!

Hang in there, It's really tough right now, but if you can hang in it will be worth it in the end. The ph call will help as long as they are supportive, do you have any friends or family close by that can support you in the mean time?? There are plenty of people on this site that can & will be there for you, you are definitely not alone.

Your doing great. You have allot on your plate by the sounds of it. Have you thought about therapy for your whole family to help cope and better support your daughter? Depression is so difficult. I was severly depressed as a teenager and struggle still but it did get way better. I hope everything goes well for you and try to remember that the better you take care of yourself the better you can take care of your family! God bless.

My center changed it's hours so it is virtually impossible for me to go. I go once on a weekday and once on Saturday.... my third visit is a call in visit. It works. YOu can do it.....see if they will work with you on this. Things are hard for you but please do not give up on this. You have to do this for you. I will remember you in prayer.
