(This is so stupid. Why am I panicking? None of it looks like panic material on paper. Could this just be my blood sugar? But if I cheat on the diet my very first day back, how will I ever do what I need to do and lose 40 pounds so I will feel good about my body and not die too young of heart disease or diabetes?)
Spike: We got a history, him and me. Fred: What? Spike: It was a long time ago. He was a young Watcher, fresh out of the academy when we crossed paths. It was a, what-you-call battle of wills and blood was spilled. Vendettas were sworn. It was a whole-- Fred: My God you're so full of crap. Spike: Yeah. Okay.

re: cheating--an apple quarter or a couple of carrots is not going to doom you insulin injections, and it'd be a lot healthier than a Twinkie or something.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Susan, for hunger issues, try some low point things. I eat a can of green beans (0 points!) or something to help with hunger pains.

(I mean, this is fucking ridiculous. We have to leave the house in an hour to catch the bus, and she's not sleeping, and I have to feed her at some point, and pack the diaper bag, and figure out what we both should wear, and it's like I can't even think what to do first.)

Feed her. Feed you. Pack bag, catch bus.

Plus, a "cheat" that helps you feel better will probably help to keep you from really falling off the wagon later. And the improved blood sugar will probably help with the headache and the coping.
I hope you have a great evening.

All is well that ends in pizza.

OK, that was just...bizarre and freaksome. I'm still not sure where all that came from. But I just ate an apple, packed Annabel's diaper bag, and figured out what we'll wear. (DH is going to the ballpark straight from work, so I'm doing this all solo.) And I made myself a backup plan for what will happen if I miss the bus--that was the unspoken feeder of the freakout. They've changed the bus schedule such that there aren't as many buses to the ballpark as there used to be, and tonight is going to be popular because there's a good giveaway.
Now to feed Annabel.

Susan, I'm glad you're feeling a little better. Have fun at the game!
