Here I am again. At the point where I have (once again) let myself just have a ton of excuses to let the plan fall to the wayside. Though I have to admit that these excuses have been reasonable... I haven't been keeping myself in check since February 11 when my boyfriend was in the hospital. The stress from that situation just got a hold of me and I couldn't shake it. I mean I should have gotten over it because he was perfectly fine after he spent the night there and his health has been great since BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE! I quit my job in February 3rd after my hours were severly cut (down to 12-14 hrs) and my boss was unwilling to let go of some grudges she was holding against me. I had some high hopes on getting a job with another company at the time but it didn't pan out as I had hoped. So since February 3rd I have been unemployed. Anyone would agree that is stressful enough... Than I got engaged. I know you'll say "Congratulations! That's fantastic!" But unfortunately it hasn't been a happy occasion. We had agreed that it made sense to wait on getting engaged until we had moved in together hopefully the beginning of next year and that would allow my family some time to get used to the idea. My fiance is unfortunately the guy that parent's pray to never have to deal with. He has let's say a not so savory past. After we agreed to this I thought "Good, that's plenty of time for my parent's to see more of this great guy that I know inside and out." ....Well he proposed wayyy ahead of time, March 9th to be exact. It was heartfelt and amazing but I knew that this was going to be a problem when I woke up the following morning. Since than my parents and I have had mutliple discussions, and the tensions have been at an all time high. I have explained that a wedding is not currently in our plans and that we plan to have a long engagment or at least be engaged until we are in a better place. They still aren't entirely happy with that and I don't really blame them entirely. But because they aren't happy, I'm am not happy. I have been so stressed that I have just been eating just for no reason. And it has but a strain on my relationship with my fiance. So after many discussions with friend's, fiance and other family members I decided that all I can do is really reorganize my life and try to be as positive as I can. I have plenty of pro's when I get back on this plan... I have plenty of time because I am currently not working. My family for once is at least all on the same page when it comes to eating healthier! My father has lost a good deal of weight since February and I am so happy for him. He used to bring in the junk food and bread. My brother, sister and mother are all eating healthier. My mother even has started making granola bars which have been quite tasty. Fiance completely backs me up on it and knows my food triggers so he can help me steer clear without irriating me.I know that it's a lot to tell but in order to pick myself up I am reaching out to my fellow NF crew to help me out. I need potions people! Potions and Pheonix downs!
