An update

Well, on Saturday I weighed-in at 64.7 and registered a loss of 800 grams. What a relief it was to see a loss instead of another gain. Gaining more than twice in a row doesn't do wonders for the confidence.

But if yesterday and this morning are any indication, I'd say this week is off to yet another shitty start.

Most of the day yesterday mr. ralph and I spent our time compiling evidence of our relationship so that I can become a permanent resident of Australia. The application is due by the 22nd of June and I'm basically running out of time to get my crap together to hand in. So we had over a friend to do all the witnessing of the originals as everything has to be certified.

We ate takeout and I had the most enormous yiros you've ever seen along with a handful of chips, and they ate pizza. We had a few glasses of wine and he asked us to go with him to his house to play poker. We went along and picked up some booze on the way.

Now at this very moment, I have a head-splitting hangover headache. I don't believe I drank that much, but sometime after we arrived home my memory gets very fuzzy and when I woke up I knew that I had drank a hell of a lot more than I should have.

So what did I eat for breakfast? A cold slice of leftover pizza and paracetamol.

That's right. It doesn't get worse than this.

Well done on the loss!

Good luck with your application. I had no idea until recently that you are an American :o)

Why are you becoming an Aust. citizen if you're planning on moving back to the States? Is it just b/c your visa is running out soon?

I actually really like cold pizza, but not the feeling of being hung over! Tomorrow's a new day. Hell, even before tomorrow, this afternoon is a new afternoon!

Just so there is no confusion, I am not becomming an Aus. Citizen. Becomming a permanent resident will allow me to live here permanently, but I do not give up my US citizenship. I have to become a resident or I will have to move back to the US right now, and we are not ready to do that. I've been living here under a visa class called "temporary residency" Also, I will be able to live/travel here in the future without having to reapply for a Visa if I am granted permanent residency. Hope that clears it up for anyone wondering.

Oh, it gets MUCH worse - at least you weren't worshipping the porcelain goddess while taking the asperin. I haven't done it in since the 80s but I still remember the misery!

Oh, yes. I could be much worse. Been there, done that.

Good luck with the application. How long will it take to find out if you're "approved"?

Very well done on the loss. We went away for a few days and I picked up.... is really hard to keep going some days.

Ugh...I was in the same boat last week. After a hard day at the office, my husband asked if I wanted a martini when I got home and then we opened a bottle of wine for dinner. The bad decision was to have a SECOND martini. Boy, I won't do that for a long time...

Great job on the loss!

Would "he leaves his socks all over the floor" count as "evidence of [your] relationship?" :)

you beautiful and slim woman stop feeling awful right now!!!! You are less than 65 kilos honey!!! Repeat after me: I am not fat anymore!!!!

Do you really think that the chicks that were born slim and stayed slim for all their lives never ever eat chocolate, drink too much, or eat cold pizza in the morning?

they surely do!!!! Its natural, its human and its pleasurable too!!!

then, they wake up the day after and eat salads and grilled chicken breasts for a day or two.

This is it you know. Simple. And since you are a slim woman, you can drink your booze, eat your pizza, and then eat "wisely" for a couple of days.

Right? Simple ;o)

***hugs***

(oi...I could feel your bones!!!! ;o)

You'd better be extra nice to Mr. Ralph for a few days! This is his opportunity to get rid of you, you know! ;-)

Starting over

Hmm. Starting over is never easy. I'm on a new journey this time. I want to do this for different reasons. I want to do it for me. This week has been an okay one food wise, but I haven't been walking. I have had to suffer rain, but we needed it so it is hard to be mad about it. I know I may have lost a tiny bit of weight, but probably not much. Will weigh myself tomorrow. I had a few too many drinks still. BUT I swear I am trying! It is hard right now. I want to go to the doctor and request some weight-loss drugs. I don't think my doctor will give me them, and I know it is a weak way out, but I want the help. So don't judge me! Thanks so much for the support lately. Even the few of you who still check to see if I am around, your words mean a lot to me.

Do you want what you can't have?

On the way home from work I saw a girl with the figure I want, but will never have. She was young; I think probably around 16 or 17. She was tall with lean legs and she was wearing a pair of trendy short shorts with a t-shirt. She also had amazingly perfect large breasts. I admittedly stared for a moment at her because she didn't have one single blemish. She is so beautiful. I couldn't stop myself from thinking about how I will never be that thin, I will probably never wear short shorts, and I definitely will never have those boobs. I wish I didn't look longingly at the things other people have and envy them, but I do. But I don't think I am the only one.

Tweaking

So I've done some tweaking to the code. I now think it looks better in Firefox than IE because IE is not recognising the best font. It is too late right now for me to concern myself with this. At least most of us can actually read it. Also I have to create a new weight chart that is compatible with this design. Thanks a lot for the input. Firefox users, is it better now?
