We found out that we qualified and received food stamps today. I am so relieved and ashamed. We need the help desperately, we usually have to let something slide to buy groceries so this is a weight off my chest. But I feel like a failure. And I feel like a loser who has tons of kids and is on welfare (even though I only have one) because they are too lazy to work. But I do work and I work HARD. And as soon as I don't need help I will stop taking it. But anyway we went food shopping. We are on the Atkins diet and to stay on it you need stuff you can eat. So we got everything that we could have that looked good. It was so nice to say yeah lets get those 10 low carb tortillas for 7 dollars and do they have another package. Tonight we ate like kings. I feel so satisfied. And for the first time in years I feel like this diet is going to work. Also I got an outfit for this weekend. A nice black skirt and a cute top. But the best part is they were a whole size SMALLER. That's right I have lost a dress size in a week and a half. But I have been taking this diet seriously. I've been exercising almost every day and have been very careful about what I am eating.
Also I was supposed to get some work done and still haven't finished it. I keep having Internet problems. It's finally working now. Just so you know I am not slacking off right now. I am transferring files. It's taking forever.
Wow I am making LOOONG posts but this is more of a journal than a blog. And it pretty much ensures that no one is reading it. Also the fact that I've only been posting for two days does too.
I have a few blogs I follow and most of them are really good poster/bloggers. Their posts are so interesting. And visually pleasing. Also they usually stick to one topic. So I will do that the next post....I will try anyway.
