Thank you for all your thoughts and encouraging words. I have been having some aftershocks from the move and new career. I have been very overwhelmed with all the single parenthood and increased responsibility in my life plus my lack of support system. It has been very hard on me.

I had some blood tests and a mini physical today at work and my blood pressure is up and my weight is down. Not a good combo, the blood tests will come in after a few days. Just some routine cholesterol and stuff.

After some thought I realize that I need to encourage more friendship/relationships in my life and try new things. I am cooped up a lot of the time and feel like it is a self imposed isolation. It is hard to break old patterns. My self esteem has always been a bit low and this is not helping me succeed.

Thanks again ladies! I appreciate all your help and encouragement....Lisa

Thank you Sheri Ann, I'm not sure if its my eating habits or the fact I'm running my butt off ;) Most likely a combo. It is very hard to fit in some time for myself, my kids, and housework! Not enough hours in the day.

Hugs,
Lisa
