I was sooooo sick to my stomach last night after the gym. Why do I *decide* that going off my birth control pills for a few months is a good idea? I KNOW what is going to happen when I start taking them again! Hello, stupid! You are going to be sick to your stomach for a week, or so! Are there REALLY any signs of life in the brain??? How many times do you have to do this to yourself before you "get it?" Oh my.

So, I was way under calories last night. I was barely able to choke down a piece of bread with peanut butter. I know I had to eat something, though. Man that was miserable!

With that said, I did have a great workout. It seemed harder than usual, but I suspect that may have something to do with getting my testoterone levels back under control? I guess I don't know, for sure, though. I am an accountant, not a physician. I was down another .25 lb from Sunday. I was afraid that the Yasmin might cause me to gain weight, but it looks like it won't be so bad. I am emotionally prepared for it, though.

My wedding band is just about to fall off my hand, and it already does when my hand is wet. We got the insurance on mine when we bought it because I knew I would eventually drop this weight. I don't want to keep getting it re-sized, but I don't want to not be able to wear it, either. Hubby says I should just put it on a chain around my neck until I am done losing weight, but I don't know. That will be about a year from now, if not more. I'll feel naked wihout it.

Today's plan is to look at the new job postings on careerbuilder and monster. I have dry cleaning to pick up and film to retrieve. I am not going to bother looking in the local newspapers until Sunday. I am thinking about getting some business cards printed and trying to pick up some more consulting work in the interim. If I can get enough work, maybe I won't need a job. Yeah, maybe I'll go do that, too. They can be pretty cheap and I already have a business website, e-mail address and mobile phone.

Update: Business cards ordered. They should be here Monday about 3:00pm. I am going to work this weekend on identifying potential clients and finding some law firms and CPA firms to meet with and see about partnering up with them. Then I am going to pound the pavement, so to speak, and call up all my professional contacts. Woohoo! What an adventure.

More: Oh my, we just got back from lunch and I ate too much. I am not uncomfortably full but I ate over that "satiated" mark that I have been doing so well with reaching, then stopping at, lately. Worst part is we are going to a friend's house for dinner tonight and the wife is Italian. I've never had home-cooked italian before. Well, I guess I will still enjoy it, even though I won't be able to eat much. He warned us that she makes oodles and oodles of food (as that is how she was raised) and absolutely insited that we not bring anything. How could I forget that and decide to go out for Mexican at LUNCH??? Can I blame it on the "stess" of being laid off? Can I, pleeeeeeeeeeeease? LOL. Yeah, like I am *really* feeling any stress about that. Ha!

*28 days remaining to find a job (or make one for myself )*
