This obviously religious lady wants to keep groceries that were paid for with evil money?

 The money wasn't evil.  People sometimes try so hard to prove you wrong, they make it right for you!!

Yikes!  Yesterday I discovered chocolate pound cake! It was soooo good. I was dancing in my chair while I ate it!

--------

I believe you could ship me some really fast, and I could have it with my morning coffee!  I'll thank you in advance.

 Sorry, that cake is history! My son ate the last piece!  He was dancing too!

She wasn't actually an alcoholic ... drank a half bottle to a bottle of wine most nights, didn't eat much... dead at 45

 Yikes!    I think some people don't think of wine as being alcohol since in some states you can unfortunately buy it at grocery stores. But it is.

All types of alcohol are sold in grocery stores?? Or is that just a Louisiana thing? In every grocery store, there is a huge alcohol section...hard liquor, wine, beer, you name it.

 In Virginia only beer and wine in grocery stores.  All hard liquor and beer and wine are sold in ABC stores.

 so I drag myself to the gym, every day if I must. Just to be there and do something.

 

Maybe its the gym setting you hate.  You may need to invest in a few free weights, exercise ball (i forgot the real name for it) even a stationary bike.
May some aerobic tapes?  Maybe?

  judgmental too?! (At least, that's how I feel when it happens to me)

 I see indeed!

When someone who I considered to be overweight wore the same size as I did. When she found out we were the same size she was very very excited 

I usually do use the entire day to have whatever I would like!  But I do make each meal count.  If I am going to do I do it right! Do I eat a whole bag of potato chips? NO. Do I eat a lot of fried oysters, shrimp and stuffed mushrooms? YES!! No donuts for me. Give me a meat lovers omelet with a side order of sausage and wheat toast w/butter and a side order of hash browns.  IHOP here I come!  Then the next day.  Special K / banana/ raisin toast etc! Most of all no regrets!

We have had the grilled chicken several times!! Very tasty!! I wish they would go ahead and remove the skin!  It is tempting to eat it! Sometimes I do!  We get the cole slaw, mashed potatoes/gravy, potato wedges and green beans.  I wish they would just keep those biscuts!  (I eat those the next morning with some jelly!) When you eat at KFC or any other fast foods you can't worry about the sodium/calories/fat etc.  Just eat there in MODERATION! 

It would be kind of like the big fish that got away.  You can tell everyone about it but no one would believe you if they hadn't seen it. Losing a lot of weight and gaining it back is unhealthy and discouraging.

So, I think weight lost the wrong way and gained back is for nothing. #1 lost by dieting instead of changing your lifestyle and #2 losing weight to please some one else or just for a special occasion. 

Continue looking for other employment don't wait until you are fired or laid off. (That sounds like it is coming soon!)  Instead of asking for more hours find out why they aren't giving you more hours.  Are you available to work anytime? Are you always requesting weekends off? When they ask you to cover another shift, do you? Look at you see what you can fix. Still I would continue applying  for another job.  And when interviewed do not bash your employer stay positive.

What time of day do you workout? You may need to change up on the time of day that you exercise.  Getting your sleep is more important than excerising! One thing to try, read the bible!  Everytime I read the bible at night I get so sleepy! Satan gets so angry and I can hardly keep my eyes open!  Sweet dreams!

Hi  I'm no expert but adding extra weight that you carry on your back while walking doesn't sound safe. As far as the hand held weights, I think they would be fine to give your upper body some extra resistance while walking.  Although I would probably go to 1.5 or 2 lb weights.
