today my weight sits at 229. WOOT!
this is a huge thing and i am happy, at the same time it has been a huge hurdle to get to this and i know that getting below will be a bit of work. I have watched myself yo-yo in the last couple of months.
Some dipshit stole a car, got drunk and ran from the cops down my street a month or so ago. The idiot ran into Dylan's car. We only have liability on that car but luckily i had spent the extra $ to get un-insured motorists. Our insurance totaled the car, even though it's just body damage and gave us a check. We bought 2 new bikes for both of us and put a grand into a cd. We have been having major problems lately and some of them $ based, and most of them based upon shitty communication.
We are working to create, begin and utilize a budget for the 1st time ever in our lives together, and this is helping to bring us together. Sometimes you need to remind yourself when in a serious relationship that is IS a partnership.

Waiting right now for Dylan to get dressed so we can go back to East Austin for the East Austin Art Studio Tour. We went yesterday w/some friends, but ended up eating somewhere and getting rained on and only seeing 2 places...so today going back to see a couple more..before it ends..which is 2 hours from now...slow but sure.
So Dave if you are reading this--i need some more advice but not about my now-ex-friend. This is all about me, and i will go back and re-read what you wrote me as i think it will help me what lies ahead. I have hit a wall in dealing with killing off the old april and making the new april. i have grown to realize that part of my bitterness, the HUGE chip on my shoulder is about being a fat person. All my life i have been told i am this and finally after years i came to believe it..now i have decided to do something about it, and i constanlty hear compliments, that just become hard to take--when they should be WELCOMED and cherished. (i DO appreciate hearing them..)
Dylan feels i need to see someone about anger management..i have been playing phone tag w/some faith-based dood here in AUstin. Anyone else have any BETTER recommendations??
My insurance does not cover mental health, so that is another issue, but i am fully ready to deal w/that part.
any thoughts??
