Good luck to YH!! MH got laid off a month ago and it's been so hard to find something local for him. He's across the country right now because it's all we could find.
DH got laid off in December. It has been... challenging. Especially since the unemployment payments ended and the court is taking its sweet time in adjusting his CS payments. Putting my student loans in forbearance so we can pay his ex-wife is a real kick in the balls.
I'm sorry you're dealing with that. That's such a shitty situation, I hope this job is the one for him!
I decided long ago that if my options are being thin without ice cream or being kinda squishy all over with ice cream, I choose squishy. And squishy I am indeed.
I follow a macros based eating plan, so I eat ice cream and lose weight. It's magical.
I'm fascinated by this diet. I want magical ice cream related weight loss.

Good Morning! I'm working a slightly later shift today so my co-workers can go to an open house with free food and stuff. They have been working here for years longer than me so they totally deserve to go more than I do, but I'm still a little annoyed.
daisy818, I hope your H's interview is great! FX! andtheheartbreakers, you're holding everyone in suspense with your ice cream diet!!! Details!!!

Yah I have never heard of macros based eating... I am intrigued!
So what it is is I have an algorithm that I use to determine a base caloric needs for each body type. Then I multiply it by an activity factor and then break up those calories into carbs, protein, and fat. Then I make a chart with reducing those every time weight loss stalls for a week to keep it going.
I do it for all my training clients if they're interested, and I just started up again myself 6 weeks ago (things were crazy with DD and it is a tad time consuming), but I'm eating 2100 calories, about 210g of carbs, 70g fat and 160g protein and I'm down 14lbs in 6 weeks. While eating so much food.
ETA - so at the end of the day as long as you hit those macro amounts it doesn't matter so much what you used to get there. So if I want ice cream I plan it out and then build the rest of my day so ice cream fits. It's magical.

Fx for YH daisy818 ! I'd like that diet plan @andtgeheartbreakers I wonder if it would work for me, I'm a hippo right now and nothing seems to work.
I'm in a van on my way to the airport. It was a nice trip and I'm glad I did it...but I'm exhausted. I haven't slept well in days. I also have a little tickle in my throat. We have friends coming this weekend and it will be a booze fest so I need to stay healthy at least through the weekend to enjoy my time with them!!

Alcohol kills the germs anyway, right?
I'll test that theory and get back to you with my results on Monday

I discovered this morning that the healthy, diet-friendly banana bread I made a few days ago was baked unevenly and was basically raw in the half that was left, and since it was sitting out on the counter for the last couple days, so it was basically rancid. So with only a few minutes, I stole 2 of DD's strawberry frozen waffles for breakfast instead.
And since today was a wash anyway, I just had one of my boss's salted nut roll bars. SO GOOD.

But now I need to be done cheating for a while.
This immediately came to mind because my brain elided "roll" and "bars" into "balls":

That is awesome, I don't know why I didn't think of that. My boss is a big SNL fan, too, so I bet she'd appreciate that.
Are homemade salted nut rolls a regional thing for my area that I should have clarified more in my post? Or was this just a reading fail?

Oh good...I'm in a van with three people and the guy in the front is talking to the driver about Trump and Hillary...guess which side he's on. I don't mind a good political conversation but I'm trying desperately not to get pulled into this one.
