181

This is what a week of eating out and lounging on the beach will do to you! I gained 5 pounds! Otherwise vacation was awesome.

My underwear is in the process of dismembering me. By the end of the day I will certainly have no legs and my waistband might successfully sever my mid-section. I got rid of all the clothes that were too small before I moved and am now paying the price. But that’s OK because I have to nip this in the bud before it gets worse. I’ll become a social-phobic if it does.

More pieces of the crazy puzzle, that is my life, have fallen into place. My husband is back with all that remains of our belongings after selling the house. We actually left quite a bit behind to make our load lighter. (Maybe in my weight gain I’m trying to compensate for the Uhaul amount of stuff we donated.)

I feel far from complete because we are waiting for the sale to close and I have the huge task of finding a new home and moving yet again. My mind is numb with all that’s going on and this contributes to my poor eating. I have to be conscious of my eating otherwise I gravitate towards fattening comforts out of habit and ease.

I yearn to have my own space to figure out how to divide my time between my job, my child (and maybe multiple), and me. This week my husband has our daughter with him at his parents. So I’ll try to use this time to get back on the wagon.
