Well, this has been one **** of a week, I was laid off on Wednesday VERY unexpectedly and the first call I got on my birthday yesterday was finding out my wife's mother died last night at 3am.
What kills me about it is that a friend and I were just talking last night about how it's probably time she passed on, it was merciful and she went in her sleep peacefully, but it still made me feel badly for talking about it just hours before she passed.
So my 8 month pregnant wife now has to get down to southern california immediately, I may need to follow her down for the funeral. It's going to make looking for work a bit tough
Not to mention the cost, which isn't going to be small.
I've already been struggling with some old food issues in the last few days. I really don't understand why I got let go from work, I left a lot of good people behind and a lot of projects unfinished. I've had half a dozen people call me outraged at what happened and it's starting to hit me hard. The last time I got fired I went into a 3 month tailspin with eating, depression and angst, and I'm doing what I can to not go there again. I need to find work quickly, get reestablished as fast as I can.
It would suck to miss my mother-in-law's funeral. I don't know what to do.
Despite feeling massive cravings and temptations for the first time since really starting this WOE at the turn of the new year, I haven't given in. I'm being stubborn about it, and my wife and family has been really supportive.
I got on the scale this morning to a 5 lb loss for the week, which is pretty cool. I'm sure some of it is decreased eating because of all the trauma so I may stall the next couple of weeks, but I really needed a little pickme up.
What do you fulks do when you need that little boost? (other than read ADBB threads of course)
