Good morning,
Hope everyone is having a good week. As I shared yesterday, I started fresh on the program Monday morning. I stocked back up on all supplements and re-started the Topamax at 50 mg after being off for months. There were several motivating factors last week that really got me thinking -- mainly discussions here on the site. One was a post by Determinator and another by Gabby. Not that I was doing bad, I just wasnt making the progress that was able to be charted in a noticeable way on a graph.
But of course life threw a big curve ball for me yesterday to try and throw me off track when my daughter totaled her car for the second time this year. She walked away from it without a scratch, so for that I am so thankful cannot express that enough. But it does not eliminate the surrounding stress regarding insurance issues as well as it was three car accident (her fault of course) and it totaled another car (brand new Audi TT Roadster whatever the heck that is), so my life now will become that of a chaeffeur once again.
I am so grateful and glad I started back on the program, supps and Topa before this happened because I handled all of this incredibly well to my surprise last night. I did have two glasses of wine over the evening, but never even got so much as a buzz and the Topa really helped so much. It always seems to work best in the beginning. My goal is to go AF for a while and I cut myself some slack last night, but normally a situation like that would have been two bottles. I am up early this morning, already been for a run and feeling good and looking forward to an AF night and the rest of this week. I know this situtuation will work itself out as they always do, and my daughter and I will both be stronger as a result.
Happy Wednesday to all to come!
Allie
