I was feeling so low yesterday, and just wanted to say thank you to all the people *****sponded to my post. I woke up with a new attitude this morning. For one thing, I had stopped weighing every day on the advice that I'd feel better if I only weighed once a week. That didn't work for me. I was stressing about what the weight was every day. So I'm back to weighing every day. I'll fill out MFP this morning with what I'm going to eat for the day, and I'LL STICK TO IT! I'll get out of the apartment and go walking at the mall and go to a movie...the popcorn be damned LOL! I'll concentrate on all the extra money I'll be making at my new job if I do end up moving soon.

Attitude is everything, isn't it!?!

Where might you be moving? I am betting that there may be some of us there, already. You wouldn't be alone.

That's the thing. I have no idea. I'm work contracts, and the one I'm in right now is getting shakey so my recruiter is looking at finding me something new. The possibilities are Baton Rouge, Houston, St. Louis, Kansas City, Atlanta...maybe more. It's all where the money is and who is offering the best position.

You are doing great. I think it is good to have a plan. It helps me everyday. We cannot control the world around us but can control how we react to it.

I am so pleased you have decided to get out of the house and very happy your spirits have improved. Life is full of adventures and moving to a new place gives you the opportunity to reinvent yourself. Good luck as you move forward.

I am in New Orleans, about an hour away from Baton Rouge, so if you move there you already have a friend close by! Glad to see a happy attitude this morning. Being positive is a choice, although easier said than done I know. Good for you. You have a bright future ahead of you.
