I started losing weight in 2008 and over the next two years lost 106 pounds. In 2010 my life changed when I got diagnosed with Crohn's Disease. Over the next two years I gained back 100 pounds. I'm taking my life back. Today is the first day of the rest of my life. Today is my fresh start and it can be yours too.

One of those days!!
Today has been one of those days. I feel like the little sumo wrestler in this picture. I am up against a lot right now and getting no where.
I didn't get to weight watchers today and I'm bummed. I need a TB test so I can student teach. My doctor was out of them, so I found a walk in clinic. I checked with them on Wednesday, talked to them on Thursday, went today and sat for 3 hours and 10 minutes just to have the doctor walk in and say they were out of it. I had sat there through all three of my weight watchers meetings and was very upset. In my past I would not have minded missing Weight Watchers, but today I really missed it. I felt like crying. I need the support and am sad that I did not get to check in. At least I tried to get there. This was the first meeting I have missed since November 8th. UGH!! I did homework the whole time that I was at the clinic, so my time wasn't wasted, but it affected my whole day and I had to find another place to get it done. Just so you guys know a lot of Walgreen's have clinics now. They were my life saver. I wish I would have found them sooner. So my weight watchers update is you will have to wait until next week.
I have other things that I am dealing with right now that I don't want to blog about, but I am feeling hit from all sides right now. It's been a rough couple of weeks. Like I said I feel like that little sumo wrestler in the picture. It will get better. Today I just prayed and said, "Lord, I do not know what you want me to learn through all this, but I give everything to you. I cannot do this alone." One thing that I wrote about it my new years resolution post is that I need to not worry about things that I cannot control. I'm focusing on that today because some of the things I cannot control, so I am trying not to worry about them. Me worrying and getting headaches is not going to help. Me praying and relying on God will calm me down and will help me release these things I cannot control.
I'm at Caribou coffee and have a couple papers to write. Have a great Saturday night.

Hey, at least you feel like the LITTLE sumo wrestler! Hang in there and know that you'll see a big loss at your weigh in next week. I went back to WW this week.
Ya, I've always used the "moto" -- you can only stress over what you control. All other stress's go on my white board in my office and I figure out how to get rid of them.
Sometimes the moto works sometimes it doesn't.
Have a Nice day.
I am in awe of your patience at the clinic! That in itself is a testimony. I've been the little sumo wrestler myself before and can empathize. I prayed for endurance for you when I read this. Keep clinging to Jesus!
I started my own blog a couple of days ago and added yours to the list of blogs I follow. Is this okay with you? It is at mj-abravenewme.blogspot.com. If you don't want your site added, let me know and I will remove it. Keep hanging in there!

that would have gotten me so angry i would have just busted out crying right there. sorry to hear you has such a crap-tastic day.
I guess I didn't mention that I did bust out crying right there and then overheard the doctor talking about me when she thought I had left. UGH!!
Hang in there mommy. God will carry you and as soon as you bust through the fire you will see it. It is hard now, but you will make it. I am sorry things are not going to great. I will pray for you.
