With my period just a week away, I’m starting to get slammed with water, so I can’t get an accurate weight reading. I’ll just know I’m doing ok if I don’t get up as high as 147 pounds. I’ve revised my menu a bit. I was having my meal at the beginning of the day, then having to battle the hunger for the rest of it because the rest of the things I ate were these nothing 100-calorie snacks. I’ve decided to cut the little stuff out that does nothing to satisfy me, and just have two main meals. I can still have a fruit cup or two along the way so I don’t have to go too many hours without eating, but I think that knowing I have another filling meal awaiting me at the end of my day will help me stick to it better. Before, once the hunger returned a few hours after eating my one and only meal, I knew there was no getting rid of it until the next day. Maybe this way I won’t feel as pressured. So far I’ve reached my goal and my monthly high is 142 which was last month’s low.

Unfortunately, Tom hasn’t gotten any job calls yet, so he’s going to expand to companies that he was trying to avoid so as not to get spammed. I was like, “You’re worried about spam when you have to get out of this place ASAP before they go out of business? Screw that!”

We really need to get him closer to home too, and I’m sick of being uninsured! Even if it wasn’t closer, this small-company bullshit’s gotta end. These little places just aren’t reliable. We need him to be in a big company that’s well-established and isn’t in danger of going out of business. They also offer insurance you don’t have to give up half of your pay for.
