I thought I'd provide an update since in general I'm not posting here too much anymore:
- Emotionally I think I'm okay. It really goes on a day by day basis, last month it felt like I had mostly bad days, so far this month I think I'm having mostly good days. Except for anxiety, which comes and goes throughout the day.
- my step-dad is now diabetic. It really sucks because now it's like diabetes follows me wherever I go. I decided I might as well go on his diet anyways since it'll be good for weight loss (he said he already lost 14 pounds just by switching his diet!) sometimes I think the things he says we should all start doing might be a little over the top like literally calculating your calories and he thought white rice was one of the worst things you can put in your body (which I only thought was ridiculous because other counties have had white rice as a stable of their diet for centuries and they are all pretty healthy) because I figure as long as you are picking healthy stuff and are very strict with your portion control you don't need to be whipping out the calculator. Remember: a human being needs at least 1000 calories per day just to continue living! But it really can't hurt since I'm already insulin resistant (not enough to be diabetic and the doctor told me it would go away once I'm down to a healthy weight) and have diabetes on both sides of my family.
-still applying for work.  but there are a few places my mom said were hiring  so keep your fingers and toes crossed
