One man reaching..

So today I had to get my finger prints done for my new job and my drug test. Per state regulations all employees in my field have to have a criminal background test done. The finger printing was easy for me but then came the drug test. That test was a little difficult for me. The reason: peeing on demand is not so easy anymore for me. The reason is I can not just slam fluids and be prepped for the test. I can only take in about 8 to 10 ounces of fluid an hour so i have to start prepping a few hours ahead of time. My appointment was for three o'clock and when I arrived I only gave a sample that was too small. So she gave me 30 minutes and when i came back I was able to give a quality sample. I was happy because now I do not have to go back tomorrow morning.


Just a few more lazy days before I start working. Now really my days are not really lazy with 2 boys under the age of 3. The reason I say lazy days is because I do not have the responsibility of a job currently. I am somewhat stressed about going to back to work but I am really really excited about it and I am getting organized for it. Today we were able to figure day care issues so I will not have any stress about that during work and Kara is now going to work 4 10 hour days so we do not have to worry about day care on Wednesday. A positive.


Today I went and saw a friend of mine who I saw on Friday. He told me that I look smaller today then I did on Friday and stated it was in my face so wasn't attributed to my clothes I was wearing. Another cool thing was when we ate breakfast out this morning (I had 2 eggs and some fruit) but I was worried about the size of the booth and when I got into it there was so much extra room in the booth, for a moment I was reverting back to the way things were when I was 338 pounds. So after I had thought about that wow I realized I am really living the mantra, eat to live not live to eat. Some of the proof is when going out to eat, my menu selection is different. I am looking for the healthy foods on the menu and not sausage gravy or corned beef hash. I used to think about going out to eat as a great thing but nowadays I would rather eat my meals at home because eating out just seems like a waste now a days. I have made many changes of late and am loving it. I was even having a conversation with my friend tonight about diets and healthy eating and I didn't feel like a poser because I am living what i am talking to him about.

Well have a great day.
