First Weigh-In of 2013

     Tomorrow will be the first time I step on the scale in 2013. I'm kind of nervous because I don't know what results I will see. I haven't been drinking soda. I have been drinking a lot of water and I have cut back on my senseless snacking. Working out has been okay not great. I think I would like working out more if I had someone to do it with or if I could swim or play volleyball. Maybe I should join a rec volleyball team or something. All I know is that I'm going to try my hardest this year to lose this weight for good. I have no intentions of gaining back once it is gone. For once in my life I want to be happy and feel confident in whatever I wear. I'm so tired of having to be careful about what outfits I wear because they will show my body flaws.
     Losing weight is hard. Sticking to your diet (if your on one) and staying away from your old favorite foods that are bad for you is extremely difficult. I refuse to give up pizza and sushi because those are my two favorites.I don't have them all the time. I try to only have sushi once a week or every two weeks. I will only eat pizza when someone else orders it or if it is for dinner. That is hard because if I stop at 7 eleven or somewhere that sells it by the slice, I have to hurry and get out before I am tempted to buy some.
     Hopefully tomorrow morning when I weigh in I will see positive results. I will be crushed if I have gained, but then again, I still have months to get it together so that my body will look better for summer. I think I might buy a rec center pass just so I can use their pool after work and on days I don't have class. It would be nice if I could find someone to go with because I worry about crazy people now days. Have a great Thursday guys :)

My Duties As A SAHG (Stay At Home Girlfriend)

      Back in June of this year I left one of the most toxic places I have ever worked at. There were so many things going on that I will just leave it at that. If you would like more details, check out my YouTube channel  here.  I thought it would be a good time to give nursing a break and take a different career path. I applied at an auto insurance company and started about 4 weeks ago but ended up leaving. Sitting all ay, wearing a headset, and having more than 2 meetings to attend per day is not my cup of tea. I gave a two week notice and have been a stay at home girlfriend since. In the last two weeks I've sent out over 20 applications. One place called me for an interview and they never followed up after I met. An animal shelter offered me a position as well but unfortunately, $11 per hour will not pay my mortgage.  My boyfriend works very hard. He is a bodyman at an auto shop and he repairs some of the most wrecked cars I've ever seen. IT is only fair to him that I make

Triage Nurse Duties

     This is the end of my second week in my new Triage role. At the end of the day, nursing is nursing but you still learn new things every day. Each day I clock in and check the messages, refill requests, prior authorization forms, and voicemails from patients. Throughout the day patients will call in and each call varies. Some patients are calling because they are in labor, have a UTI, yeast infection or BV. Other calls coming in are for pap results, genetic testing, ultrasounds, and biopsies. Everything I do from my desk is what I used to do on the floor. I assess patient symptoms over the phone and decide whether they need to try over the counter treatment, come in for an appointment, go to an Urgent Care, or head to to the emergency room.       At first when I accepted this position, I didn't know how it would play out. I'm used to running around doing multiple things at one time and always being busy. Surprisingly this is amazing. I'm not running ragged on the floor

Step Away From the Cake

     It is so annoying that I work in a doctors office that continues to bring in cakes, sugary drinks, and junk food. Today and yesterday I have had two non scale victories. This morning the first thing out of the receptionist' mouth was "there is bundt cake in the break room". Dude it is not even 9 a.m. Yesterday the doctor I worked for brought bake slices of pie and cake from the hospital cafeteria and I kindly said no thank you and walked away. It frustrates me because every one who works in this office with me knows I have an eating problem and they know I joined Weight Watchers. I am so proud of myself for looking at that cake this morning and walking away when I easily could have eaten half of it. I felt pissed off when I walked in the break room and saw it. Yes, everything in moderation is ok, but not for someone who is already way over weight and trying to get their shit together. I will be okay. I will get through this. I can do this.
