Woohoo, Jill! Good for you! I know that feeling of getting dumped on at work because my boss knows I'll get it all done.
My woohoo tonight is that I am feeling a bit better and managed to get through a 30-minute workout. Now I can crash for the night, and stick to my meal plan.
Thanks and good job on the workout!
Congrats Jill on that woohoo Tuesday!
Thanks Rose
And I'm sure that the PROUD feeling you had for not giving into the stress eating made you feel SO MUCH BETTER than the cheese sticks or chocolate would have!!! Try to remember that feeling..... store it away in a little corner of your brain and and pull it out next time you are tempted to give into the stress chocolate!! Doesn't it feel SO MUCH BETTER than the 5 minute chocoate high???
TTYL.......................P
Thanks for the support and encouragement. And, you're completely right. It feels so much better than the quick food high!
Didn't someone say they were using the rowing machine? Jill, maybe? I think I am going to get someone to show me how to use it, because I need to do something else to strengthen my back.
Hope everyone has a good Thursday!
Yes, it's me that tried the rowing machine. I do really enjoy it, but still only stick to about 10 minutes after my treadmill workout. I hope you enjoy it and it helps your back.
Kudos to you for your for staying OP and for typing such an awesome long reply on your phone!
Thanks! I usually check in on my phone and then don't have time to reply on a computer later in the day, so I thought I'd just do it on my phone. I think my eyes are told old for that again lol.
On topic for a change here and I will say that I finally had a WHOOSH on the scale this week (too late for my work weigh-in but oh well) and am down 2.2 over last week!! That puts me just .7 away from my goal for the month! Of course, that only really gives me until next Thursday morning to lose that .... because I will not be home to get on the scale Friday morning (thank goodness!! ). That gives me some added incentive to AVOID the movie popcorn tonight.... and for those of you who know me KNOW that this will truly be a struggle for me!
Off to make breakfast!..................P
Congrats on the whoosh!
Finally I have seen a little progress on the scales. It's only 2 lb gone, but it's more than I've managed for weeks. I think the treat eating at the weekend has given my body a bit of a kick start. I've also gone back to writing everything down........including my birthday treat.......a Milky Way Darkest!!
Congrats on the loss! I hope volunteering at your 5k wasn't too cold.
QOTD--what are you doing for fun this weekend--that does not involve food, or if it does, how can you make it healthy?
I am watching football and doing some online shopping. I just realized how nice it is to shop online and avoid all the yummy smelling food at the mall, especially the Chinese place!!
Morning my friends! I feel SO GOOD about my movie popcorn control last night! THat has truly been one of my biggest ongoing obstacles since restarting this journey in 2008 and last night was a HUGE NSV! I ate and enjoyed the popcorn i made at home and brought along, i shared some of the low carb chocolate with DH, tracked everything I ate and woke up feeling very virtuous!
What a great plan and nice job sticking with it. I'm such a sucker for movie popcorn and then feel lousy after I devour it all! I'd love to maybe sneak popcorn in the next time I go, but how did you get it in there? Do you have a big purse/bag?
I hit another low for the year at WW yesterday so I am a happy camper. Now I just have to make sure I stick to my plan and am very good because that 10% keychain is within my grasp.
Yay! Congrats on the success!

I am thankful for.....
But there are rules: can't use the following words--kids, children, family, son, daughter, wife, husband, spouse, health--you get the picture.
I am thankful for my coworkers, who are the best. We are great friends and help each other out all the time. They make me laugh and let me complain when needed. Without them, I would not work where I work.

Hello all! I feel like it's been forever since I posted and it was! Well, about 4 days ago It sounds like everyone is doing well. I guess this month is much busier than I anticipated for checking in daily. Luckily, I will be off work for 6 full days starting Tuesday at 1:50, but who's counting And, I get to be coach starting Tuesday (I think...I better check). I'm pretty excited and can't wait.
We didn't get home from church until 1:30 because we had our annual congregational meeting and Thanksgiving dinner. I didn't do too bad eating, but did splurge on a slice of apple pie. Luckily, I planned for this and now I don't have to make dinner tonight The kids will have sandwiches and I will have an Atkins bar or shake. So, I am going to take advantage of the extra time from not having to cook to get some cleaning done.
We have a winter storm warning for tonight and may get some snow. Although, I think it'll stay in the northern part of our county (we are in the southern part). My kids are hoping for the snow so they get a delay tomorrow (which I admit would be great), but I am really wishing for sun and 80 degrees I guess I dream big
Okay, I'm heading off to get some housework done (inspired by Pamela's cleaning frenzy) and to get some stuff done for work as well. Have a great, warm day!
Jill
