Yay!

Yay! I not only passed my tape test, but according to them, I have lost half an inch. That's pretty good, considering my weight remained the same, and I thought for sure my hips had become bigger.
I still think I resemble a big blob when I look in the mirror, but at least I'm not going to be on the overweight program. Yay!
Of course, the whole thing would have been better if they hadn't chosen me as one of the six people who had to take a urinalysis. Uggg. I hate those. Now I'll be peeing all day, lol!

(no subject)

I just had a long talk with my section sgt. Apparently, he wants to know why I suddenly have a bad attitude and why I told my team cheif that I didn't care when she gave me my counseling for my gaff on Monday.
I told him the truth. That I was tired of having people talk bad behind my back, and that I finally just realized that I have to do my job, no matter what, so I might as well just keep my mouth closed, do as I'm told, and hope to get through the day.
Also, even after my tape test, my sgt tells me I am still too fat and that I need to exercise more and eat less. No shit, Sherlock. So, as of tomorrow, I am starting a 700 calorie diet and increasing my exercise routine to 15 miles a day. Hopefull this will help, and I figure 700 calories can't be as bad as the Atkins diet.
At least I can decide what to eat, like an apple or an orange.
I just can't wait to go on leave and get this place out of my head for a while. My sgt told me he is going to make some changes while I am away, but he has been saying that for a long time. I don't expect anything to be different, and realize I just have to deal with stuff the way it is. Its not easy, its not fun, but I can do it.
I just have to come to terms with that fact that this is my life, for good or for bad, and the only way I can change it is to change my attitude. As Shakespear said: "There is nothing good or bad, but thinking makes it so."
Well, I'll work on finding my smile again, and not letting the people get to me so much. And hopefully, by the time I get back from leave, they'll have found someone else to torment.
Have a good weekend, all!
