First off, it's been rainy, cold and miserable here for 3 days. According to the weather forecasters it will continue until Tuesday or Wednesday next week. Apparently we have a storm that is 'stuck' and keeps circling around us.
Today didn't start off too badly, it actually started off pretty good. Nestle is closed until Wednesday of next week, so Rob is off for FIVE days in a row. He got a phone call from work this morning asking if he was available to come in today and do the testing for the Q/A job he'd applied for. We were ecstatic. Rob frantically pulled out his excel book and tried to brush up his knowledge of it. He had an appointment with HR at noon.
A little before 1 he called me and I could tell by the sound of his voice he didn't have good news. Excel was the first test they had him take (probably because it's the hardest). He easily passed the 'beginning' excel test, but unfortunately on the intermediate test he missed passing by about 10 points. So that means no new job.
As far as the diet goes, that sucks too right now. I guess I've been pretty depressed the past few days as I've been doing a lot of comfort eating. I was down 11lbs, but I've probably gained a pound or two back with all the crap I've eaten in the last 2 days. I'm done with South Beach anyways. It's a great way to lose a lot of weight quickly but it's not a live-able diet (sorry mom, it's not).

Sorry to hear he didn't get the QA job. I hope another opportunity opens up soon.
Congrats on the weight loss. Don't sweat a pound or two. It happens.
I'm sorry to hear about DH's job.
I agree with Bridget, don't stress yourself over one bad day. Everyone needs a "pig out day" as my mom and I call it. :) I'm sure you're doing great!
