warning: I needed to vent

I'm such an emotional eater and it is taking a lot right now to talk myself out of getting doughnuts for breakfast.

 weigh in day: I think I might keep with Sunday, especially if Kristina is thinking about that day. With tennis season (and conditioning starting in January), I know I will not want to go and will not be able to go later at night. 2pm on a Sunday is right in the middle of the day, but Sunday is usually my lazy day anyway, so it'll get me out of the house for a little bit. 

yesterday fucking sucked. Let me cliff note it

1. got a $1000 check in the mail. No joke. b/c I'm part Indian, there was this court case recently and we won and b/c it affected my age range (or something like that), I got part of the settlement- $1000. So, I started doing my happy dance!! yahoo new iphone, credit card, and a little shopping.

2. got a bill for $1500 and saying my mortgage was going to increase b/c somehow my homeowner's insurance went up from $479 a year to $1222 a year. So, I spent a lot of yesterday afternoon on the phone and crying to Papa b/c I didn't know what to do. In addition to it going up, it hasn't even been a year yet... I was guaranteed my rate for a year, yet it is changing this much. It was my escrow account (I still don't full understand this) and papa said it was normal for it to change $100 give or take each year, but not $1500 worth.

In situations like this, I want to eat or have a glass of wine. I told Papa I felt too guilty to buy my new phone now, but he kept telling me to go out and buy it, so that helped. And he said he was going to talk to my stepmom about some options to help me out.  Literally, it was an extremely bipolar day.

Right now I have an extreme headache from not sleeping well. But let me talk about the good from yesterday in my first official weight watchers day!

breakfast: orange and 24 ounces of water
lunch: 6 point tv dinner & 2 point rice krispie treat
snack: string cheese & preportioned broccoli & cheese - both 1 point
dinner: caesar salad & stuffed shells

Ok, so I'm sure my dinner was more 29 points. I forgot to dip my salad in dressing instead of pouring it on! I also didn't eat anything past 7pm. If I can get into that habit, that would be great. Oh, and Bryan came over for dinner last night (with flowers, cue the "awwwwwwwws" b/c I warned him I was having a bad day), so I did have some physical activity and maybe earned back a point! haaa.

Kristina- did you get started with Johnson-Forlicker last night? Tyler texted me a picture of him with my BFFL Jr.!

Today's challenge is going to be the potluck the English department is having.  I'm just going to have to take half the size I would usually get or skip the dessert b/c I bought some great looking WW desserts that I can snack on when I get home.

I'm serious this time, and I'm so glad we are doing this together! And I can't believe you bitches read all of this! Ya'll are the best! <3

My motivational song for the moment!
