Week 12 Weigh In

Well it finally happened, the dreaded weight gain! I’d like to blame Easter but that had nothing to do it with it — stress was my killer this week. I have always had problems with being an emotional eater. My way of dealing with stress is by eating anything that contains carbohydrates! This last week I have been dealing with problems with my job. To be honest, I have never really been happy with any of the jobs that I’ve taken since I moved here. Why, you ask? Well, because in England (yes I have the accent still) I had a good chance of making a management position, I was in a team lead position getting as much on the job training as I could handle. Then I made the decision to move to America, a decision I have never regretted, but one that resulted in me stepping back down to a programmer. I haven’t been able to advance beyond that position since. So now I am considering my next career move, and filling up on fries and chips as a result! If you’re in need of a skilled software engineer with aspirations of moving back into team leadership and beyond, send me an email!
