It has been over 2 months since I last posted an entry. I have thought of doing so several times, but I just haven't had the energy to do so. My mother passed away on December 15th, and it was pretty much an emotional roller coaster during those final days. At the same time we were losing my mother, I found out that I am going to be a grandmother again. After she passed, we drove to New York for the funeral and burial, and then turned around to drive back to be home in time for Christmas. There was the "business" stuff that had to be taken care of and the grieving process continues. All things considered, I think I did okay food wise. Partook of a few indulgences, and find that I still do...and I have gained a few pounds back, but I have still lost 15 lbs since June.
I also had a wonderful annual physical. My liver numbers are back to normal, my doctor was excited that I had lost the weight. So I am not on any new medication (yay!) and the plan is to get my diet back in check and really get serious about exercise. Soon. Right now I'm still working through the grief. Trying to set boundries so I don't just immerse myself in busy work to keep my mind off the sorrow. Wanting to take the time to honor how I am feeling, so when that new little bundle appears, I can be there for my daughter and grandchild 100%. If I nurture my emotional, psychological and spiritual sides, the physical will follow.
