Good evening, dear ladies — I’ve been amiss for the past couple of days. Hubby had a car accident on the way home from work Tues night and though no one was hurt (he rear ended a truck in front of him when it came to a sudden stop) the damage to our vehicle was extensive. So much so that it went to salvage. Sigh. Anyway, it’s been mayhem without a vehicle the past two days — hubby has missed two days of work (has to take them as vacation) and we’re still trying to straighten out the logistics of it all. A huge pain in the butt.
I didn’t weigh-in officially yesterday morning, but given that I’ve been unable to eat anything since this happened, I know I’ve lost substantially because my clothes are unusually loose. I wouldn’t recommend The Stress Diet to anyone, however; if I don’t have an ulcer before this is all dealt with, then I’ll know for sure I have an iron gut — which I’ve long suspected. 
All I want to do is drink coffee — which only makes things worse, in fact. Anyway — I’ll be back in a day or two with an official weight.
I hope you’re all doing well.

Take care Nancy and try to find something nourishing that your system can take with the stress, your body is going to start rebelling soon if you don’t. :hug:

I’m so glad to hear your husband (and the other fellow for that matter) did not get hurt. Try to take the time to take care of yourself during this time of such stress. It in times such as these when your body really needs some lovin’.

I don’t recommend the stress diet OR the sick diet… but they sure to help now and again. (psstt.. don’t tell anyone I said that or they’ll take away my Stay Healthy spokesperson card).

Omg! I’m so sorry! (((((Hugs)))))) I’m glad he was ok.

Wow, what a week you are having. Guess it’s a good thing I don’t live close by or I would have brought over a big plate of cookies, with some tea and sympathy! This too shall pass! Glad your hubby wasn’t hurt. You are in my prayers!

I’m so sorry! What a mess of a week for you guys. I hope you get things straightened out soon! What a icky way to have to go car shopping, huh?
:blech:

Oh, hon! I’m glad hubby is ok but I’m so sorry ’bout the car. We went through that with our car a few years back, lost the whole dang thing. I remember being so freaked out. And you’re right. I’ve been on the stress diet all week as well. It’s amazing how you can tell the difference after doing good for a while, ya know?
Looking forward to seeing you back on your game. IN the mean time, don’t be too hard on yourself and take time to breathe. (Telling myself at the same time).
Thinking of y’all!

:grouphug: Thanks, everyone, for your wonderful support. Things are beginning to get straightened out, little by little. It’s amazing how something so “insignificant” (compared to other things) can turn your whole world upside down. :rant:
I’ll be back soon with a weigh-in … I may as well just wait for this Wednesday, but I know I’m down 4lbs at least.
