omg, what a week - Friday the 21st I got the beck n' call from the higher up's - as suspected things are REALLY bad with the firm - they let me go!! HOW the eff Los Angeles Lawyers can NOT make money is beyond me - but I did know things were bad, just had hopes they'd pull it together and be able to keep me. SO - yea, it threw me into a pity party and I just spent the last week-plus eating everything that wasn't nailed down (no worries, the dog is safe). So, here I go, starting induction again....

I think at some point this week I reached that special place where it all clicks. I've had a rocky beginning - but know from reading here that's normal. It's not easy to change a lifetime of bad eating habits, especially in a world so intent on shoving 'wtf foods' down your throat (serisously, 100 calorie packs do NOT make a decent food choice!). I started, cheated, beat myself up, but tried again . . . and again. Hearing others say they too had this experience has kept me trying. And now??...

This is a tad long, and maybe tmi, but - what the hey, we're all friends here. Also, I'm honestly concerned about this effecting my eating, in a bad way!! Got a call from my baby bro last night - he is FINALLY leaving/kicking out that gold digging tramp he married (gee, get the impression I don't puffy heart my SIL?) I actually didn't meet her until he brought her to LA to get married (our dad is in a care facility and I'd arranged to have the wedding there) - so I'd hadn't chance to check...

LONG story short, my baby bro called late last night and I'm flying on 4 hours of sleep right now (thankfully, I can work in zombie mode!)

Last night stopped by the market, got some flax meal and tried the OMM - omGAWD that thing rocks!! Also clears you out, but wow, what a great find. I learn so much just cruising through the threads here.

Lack of sleep = lack of appetite so I've only had chicken broth so far today. Lunch I've got what I call 'cheesy chicken' - chix...

yesterday -
B- chicken salad, strawberries
L - corn beef & cabbage
D - I pan grilled NY steaks - soooo good and a whole artichoke that I'd marinated over night in Paul Newman's Own

later, I wanted a 'nibble' and did something I would never have considered before - broccoli cole slaw - I've been having this with lunch, but the crunch/creamy/bacon taste really hit the spot as an evening snack!

Though I wanted to hit the treadmill, I had a meeting...
