trishka48's Journal, 12 Apr 11

OH! Back from Kansas. My Mamaw passed away one week ago today and we had the funeral in Kansas. While it was good to see my Kansas family, the drive is a killer: 14hours. Blech. We did the drive up, funeral ( 2 hours from homebase) and drive back in 4 days. Yuck! I am SOOO glad to be home!
I tried to set myself up for success in the road food department-- but when you get into family cooking you special things, you just eat it and love that they love you.
Today I am back on the regiment of eating 1400 calories. I haven't weighed myself---eek!--- but I will roll with whatever it says and be ok with it. This is a snapshot in my life and I will get better. I feel like something has changed in me. I am not sure what, but the idea of fuel vs. food being my friend-- seems to be a big deal. I know I enjoy food, but I don't crave it like I did. I tend to emotional eat and it can be so compulsive. Now that I am back in my element, I feel like I have control again.
Dealing with my Mamaws funeral was hard- but to be truthful, I feel I have already grieved for her. An myself, if I am being honest. Certain people in my family can suck it, and I know I may not see them again. I am truly ok with that. Sometimes you have to take out the trash.
I can not even wrap my head around the fact she is gone forever. She was my first best friend and she always accepted me as I was.

Anyway, I will weigh in the morning and see what kind of damage was done over the past week; deal with it; an move on. I feel different. I am ready to change.
Happy Tuesday all!

Sorry to hear about mawmaw but I think you have already done your grieving processes as you watched her deteriorate. Not that it makes it any less painful but remember all the time you got to spend with her!

Its hard to lose a loved one especially since you were both close, and my heart aches for you as I dread losing my gramma but I know you will be ok. :)
