View MIPACKERFAN's food & exercise for this day
Hi.
I'm kind of feeling like I've been a bit detached lately. It hasn't helped me. I've been honestly logging my food, but I've been going over. On the upside, I have been doing the math in my head as I find I'm craving this or that. "You have 500 calories left...if you eat this, then you only have this left, and you wanted to eat this later. Make a decision." Honestly, it's gone both ways.
One of the things I've noticed is when I watch TV. Now granted, I watch way too much TV. But I've found that as I start a show, I need to have something to munch on. And then when the next show starts, I need to have something to munch on. And again. No wonder I've gained so much weight!
Last night I came home after hitting a fast food place (but I did have the room calorie-wise) and got to work. The TV didn't get turned on until after 11, and there was no food to be find last night. I know if I keep my brain and my hands busy, I find myself in much less trouble with food. I've also found myself cleaning all of the crap out of the house that I've accumulated. Not only do I not eat while doing it, I feel a LOT better after because all of the "stuff" is gone.
A little update on the situation that's been going on at work. I spoke with my BB (boss's boss) last night and explained about the conversation I had with my MD (marketing director). There are two sides to this mess thats happened. First, my BB and MD have been in a power struggle and put me in the middle of it. Second, my MD doesn't trust my design work (her exact words). This May will mark my 10th anniversary with this firm, and I'm not sure if I'll make it that far. Anyway, BB apologized to me last night for getting me in the middle of everything. It was good to hear that she realized what had happened. And she'll be talking to MD to try to square everything away - without me being involved. As for MD, it's been a struggle, especially knowing she doesn't trust my work. She told BB that she cares about me and wants to see me succeed - it just didn't come out that in the heart-to-heart we had. So, I don't know...
On the other side, working for a CPA firm, things right now are crazy busy. The big corporate due date is this Saturday (which actually makes it Monday) and we've been scrambling to get everything done. The further into the week it gets, the busier we get. And then there's April 15... ugh! I think after ten tax seasons, they should send us on an all-paid vacation to Hawaii or something...you think?
Well, I'm off to fight another day. Have a good one!!
