Weight loss and crazies in A new beginning

Been another rough week so far but almost survived. Jesse worked again last night and will tonight, tomorrow and Saturday so that means even less sleep. Lilly wouldn't go to sleep until 3:30 this morning again and I had to be into work at 8 as usual. I am a walking zombie....actually I'm pretty sure zombies have it more together than I do at this point.

The crazies have been plenty as usual this week. Had a guy call up wanting to schedule some OT for his hand so I naturally asked him what his diagnosis was in which he replied "I got the arthritis and I'm also a grumpy man ok!!" So I was like "Ok I just need to take a moment and get you entered into the computer system first"

"What system is this?? Is this a private system or is this the hospital system?? I will tell you right now I hate the hospital and I am a dentist okay!" Keep in mind this dude was 80 years old. "No it's not the hospital system. We are not part of the hospital" "Ok good!" "So your first name is "Robert" " "No. That's my middle name" "Ok what's your legal name" "I'm not telling you that! You aren't putting that in there! You don't need to know that"

Alrighty then. People are so weird. Just about as bad as the guy that told me he better not see any domestic violence posters on the walls because he will walk out. There are always two sides to the story and men get abused too, he told me. Or the woman who when I answered the phone and said who I was, immediately replies with "Now Kate, don't get offended now but I'm Jewish and as a Jewish woman you can see how I love Dr. S. I just love him and so does my caseworker". I don't know how me saying my name was Kate gave her the impression that I hate the Jews but ok.

I've been meaning to get back to exercising. The physical therapy office at my work lets us use the treadmills and other machines for free so I should really start running again if I'm going to participate in any 5Ks this year. I don't know how but I got myself down to 120 lbs without exercising at all for months. I'm thinking it may be one of my headache meds that doesn't even work that's making me lose and maintain the weight. Is it bad that I'm afraid to stop it in fear of gaining the weight back? haha. Hell, pretty sure I weighed 135 when I got pregnant with Lilly. I was 180 when I had her so that means I've lost 60 lbs. Geez. The last time I weighed this I was 21 I believe. Crazy. Still have some stretch marks and that extra saggy skin under my belly though that I probably wont ever lose unless I do an extreme amount of toning which I don't care to do. Even when I was down to 114 lbs I wasn't comfortable with my body or wearing a bikini so I don't think I ever will be anyway. I just feel like that's just too much to show strangers. Maybe I'm just getting old but whatevs. So sorry you wont get to see my flabby stretch marked body yo.
