    Thank you bdgfn, not sure where Jess has been. Hoping everything is ok with her. I am way over calories today but sometimes you have to stress eat or explode. Lol. Sigh oh well tomorrow is a new day right?

    OMG! Day 24/365- is that correct??
    Stacey I am soooo sorry! I have a million excuses but none are valid... I'm still here I promise. I am logging my food everyday, and always in the back of my mind is the thought to come on here but I've been saying "I'll do it later. I don't have time right now!" I need to take the time, for me and for you!!!
    Eating wise I am good, even though my stress is through the roof!!! Work has been a nightmare, but I see a light at the end of this scary, dark tunnel!

    I'm going to post every couple of paragraphs so I don't lose all my hard work here lol....
    I weighed myself yesterday and am down 2 more lbs, but my official weigh in isn't until next Tuesday so it doesn't count YET!
    How was your mom's surgery?? How is the knee?? How are you????

    @jess_donoghue when you log your food, make it a point to come here and check in. Maybe in conjunction with finishing up your daily log? Like stacy said, even if it's just a smiley face, at least we'll know you've been here. And if you can smiley face, say hi! ;)

    And the official diagnosis is......(drum roll please) a subluxated patella and marrow bruise of the left knee. Which for those inquiring minds means that I partially dislocated the knee cap and came as close to breaking my leg as you can get without actually fracturing it. Lol. Physical therapy for a month and then we go from there.

    Why is it so hard to stick to an eating plan when my wife is here? I love her but this weekend is a total bust.

    Not to bad today after all. Thought super bowl would do me in, but managed to keep it under control.

    Ok! Diagnosis done so at least you know what you're dealing with.... The drum roll did keep me in suspense lol!!
    ..... Day whatever/365 lmao!!! I'll recount my days tomorrow. Crazy week-end then back to normal today, although I had to pick my daughter up from school as she had a migraine... Of all the things I could pass onto her she gets the worst one. Speaking of migraines though, and this is huge, I haven't had one in a week now. I was up to 2-3 a week and the meds we're making me feel horrible. I decided to get both of my daith's pierced. It's the tiny bit of cartilage that scoops down just above the canal opening. It's a pressure point for acupuncture for migraines and I'm amazed at how I'm feeling! I should have done this years ago.... I was taking up to 10 Advil a day, plus a triptosan to ease the pre-symptoms. In the last week I've had 2 advils and they were PMS related (sorry gentlemen readers).
    I'm hoping it's not a placebo effect, although if it lasts who cares right!!!
    So, Stac! Here's to your healing and to me being mostly pain free! Cheers!!!
    And ... WE GOT THIS!!!

    Oh, also!!!! My eating has been ok, and if I eat like I did today I will be 204lbs in 5 weeks! Hmmmmmm! Not entirely sure it was the healthiest of days, so I may have to re-evaluate.... Meeting a dear friend for lunch tomorrow and then off skiing for the last time this winter (at least with the school anyway). A well deserved day off, at least I have to say that or you'll think I'm a slacker at work! Lol.
    I'll be back....
