On martinis, food and cigarettes

Okay.

They weren't really martinis. They were rum and cokes. Has anyone tried the new rums they have out? I got hooked on the malibu rums, but am now delighting in the vanilla spice rum and cokes. Had several last night. Was my consolation for gaining eight pounds in the last three weeks and losing three agents in a very short amount of time.

The eight pounds kills me, you see, because I had lost forty pounds from November to April. Was working on my last 30 and wham... life gets stressful, diet goes out the window and I have no time to hit the gym. I have learned one thing though.

I can never eat normal again.

That thought is more depressing than losing three agents.

I quit smoking 6 years ago. I loved to smoke. LOVED IT! The icky smoke everyone hates... nummy. An ashtray is pure potpourri for me. But is horrible for me and worse for the kids and I wanted to break the cycle. And then I put on the weight. And then some more. Now instead of smoking I eat. And occasionally drink little rum drinks. Okay. They were big rum drinks. BUT... I didn't eat And I made it to the gym yesterday!

Things are looking up! Now, if I could just get rid of this headache!

I'm trying to give up my coffee addiction. I'm not supposed to have more than a cup a day (dr.'s orders) but I'm up to 4. This is my first day without. I'm shaking. Shaking! :)
