Thanks for the input on my website.. outsiders (extended family) looking in always see things diferently than those that are really close to you.
I really appreciate each and everyone of you!
As for Maine .. that is where I was born and raised.. going up to visit with family and friends. Seafood is great but comfort food is more fun .. things that I don't get anymore down here like Alex Pizza, Happy Dragon Chinese, Pier fries, gonna have to watch the intake.

The Good: I'm still here and still struggling. Still looking for a job although I have also decided to do my own business as well but it will probably take some time to get it where I don't have to work somewhere else as well. If anyone is interested in taking a peak and critiquing my website for me it would be appreciated. I do take criticism well. http://www.weddingsandeventsonline.com
The Bad: I have been off the wagon and not doing what I know I should do. Stress plays a funny role in your life. Not eating right has made me gassy. Not working out has made me stiff and I'm going crazy and beating myself up over it and not doing a dang thing about it. And on top of it all I started getting sick again and back on steroids a couple days ago. The getting sick part was one of my excuses for not going to the gym. I could have skipped the cardio.
The Ugly: Last night I climbed on the scale .. of which I never ever do at night that is a big no, no... I don't know what made me do it. I was 201.5 lbs. I cried myself to sleep last night. When I got up this morning I was at 199.0. I think it was a wake up call as to how easy life can get out of control and no matter what is going on in my life I still have got to take care of myself. To make things even worse, next Saturday I will be on vacation for a week in Maine and it will be very hard for me to eat properly. I am going to have to be very strong.
Thanks for listening to me.
Love and hugs to all.View Thread

Thanks to Kim and her pumpkin smoothie I have found a new frozen treat instead of ice cream. That one sounds good too .. already have the blender up on the counter again thanks to Kim.View Thread

Like I said in Kim's reply, I know what makes me smile I'm just scared.
We have unemployment also but I was a sub-contractor in this job so no unemployment taxes were being paid in. therefore, no unemployment for Norma.
I have already talked to the Y about volunteering to pay for my membership while I am unemployed. That is a help for me at least so that I can still keep going to the gym.

Glad you are working your way through it! I myself have been in a funky mood! but I know what is causing mine .. since I lost my job I have felt like I have no purpose in life and have been spiraling out of control. I am trying to fight through it and hopefully will see the light at the end of the tunnel soon. You are strong and have made it this far. I am sure you have had many struggles in your journey and this is just another test of your strength and willpower. You shall overcome this as well.
Hope everything gets better soon. You can always come vent here .. we listen .. or I hope so anyway as I have vented a few times in the past few weeks. I find it helps me anyway. Keep lifting your weights and getting a grip on reality with every lift you make.
