FitOKay's Journal, 20 Jun 14

I jumped on the scale this morning befor I remembered I was trying to wean myself off this thing o.0 When I saw the number I couldn't resist recording it though. I was stressed yesterday and when I'm stressed a drink water... like by the liters o.0 I keep reading how the more water you drink the less the body holds on to so I'm inclined to think this drop may be that I had less water weight then usual this morning. Not sure if that's exactly how it works.... but hey, seeing the scale inch into the mid 140s is a FANTASTIC feeling.

Today, for it seems like the first morning since we plugged in that fridge and realized it was still working perfectly the next day (according to actual thermometers), I know this situation with renting the house is only my fault in so much as being naive. I also want to thanks everyone who bore with me on last night's post while I was processing it all. I've been getting there intellectually for a bit and slowly coming to terms with it but last night the facts of the matter managed to bang their way through my thick skull and I 'get it'.

My husband still rolled his eyes at me this morning when I was musing about whether our tenant was really as bad as some of the horror stories I read (people who were obviously doing what they did on purpose) or if ours truly believed his situation somehow... ok so obviously I'm a pushover for a sob story o.0 Intellectually I've got this thing figured out and can move along as we see how it plays out. Hoping for a best case that simply sees the tenant out by August, the house not too trashed and our house on the market. Nothing more.

But 147.4lbs on the scales!? Totally awesome! Hope everyone else is having a wonderful day =)

Congrats on your continued success. Though I tried to not weigh in every day, it didn't work for me. I like to see what the scale says. Good job. As far a tenant which I believe you are talking about please listen. Being in a business that deals in such matters and owning income property, one thing I've found throughout the years is that unfortunately, we can't have a soft heart because people will pounce on it and take advantage of kind hearted people. At times it kills me to evict tenants because I am a kind hearted person but we must set a rule for ourselves and follow it. So were you one of my clients, I would suggest you give them a 3 day notice to pay or quit (assuming they haven't paid), and if they don't respond within that time frame, begin the unlawful detainer action to have them legally evicted. If they have paid but are bad tenants, give them a 30 day notice and get them out before they destroy your property. AND PLEASE...DON'T BUY THE SAD STORIES AND THE TEARS! Most people are wonderful and won't take advantage of us. But there are others who spin a good tale. Good luck and good going on the getting healthy plan.

Thank you so much Madanjen! We got a lawyer on wednesday and started eviction, we served 3 day notice last week and then gave then a week and 3 days anyways because they told us they had a uhaul (and they did, we drove by!) But when we went to clean 2 days ago... no uhual and guess who hadn't moved? So we went to an eviction landlord on wednesday and got the process started. I was just still trying to wrap my own head around it thursday... but I think I have it. It's just so crazy people are actually like this. I really appreciate the support more then you know. I know this is a weight loss site but the fact that people will support and listen to each other here on all aspects of the life journey has been unbelievably wonderful!
