Goodmorning Newbie Chicks!!!!! Well, I just got home from work and I need to get to bed so I can be up by 4 and start over again. The great thing about tonight is it is my FRIDAY!!! Yay! No more work after tonight. At least for a few days
It is really hard for me to stay on my program when at work. First, I am sad because yesterday my husband woke me up and I am STARVING because I hadn't eaten in a long time. And he went and had KFC waiting for me when I woke up.
He keeps doing this to me. I don't understand why
. So I looked up the chicken pot pie. Its very bad. But since I hadn't eaten anything I ate half of it and had enough points to not go over. But half of a chicken pot pie doesn't last long I was still hungry. GRRRRRR. Then everyone at work brought food. So I ate a couple bites of the bean dip and 2 bites of the pie. And that was all I ate all night at work. Then came home and the other half of that stupid pot pie was still here so I just ate it and now I am going to bed very hungry. Dumb Dumb Dumb. Definately not the way a PHAT chick would eat. I haven't gone over on my points but its not good choices.
Okay that is my rambling of how bad I did. I am going to do good tonight and then I will be off work for a few days and I will work really hard.
I am so scared to get weighed. It is so stupid. I really have been staying in my point range but My first week I lost zero after working really hard. I'm scared if I weigh in and don't lose again I will feel frustrated and give up. But I know I can't give up. Because I am he*l bent on wearing my old jeans this year.
We have lots of new faces I see. Hooray! That makes me so happy. It is hard to fit into a group of people who have been online friends for a while. I think we will form our own little circle here and it will just be wonderful. I didn't see some from our first day post anymore. Hope to see em.
Paige, I know what you are saying about no one knowing your weight. In fact I am always worried my hubby will get on this site and somehow figure out who I am. Silly huh? But I don't want anyone outside of this group to know. Here though I feel like it lets people know where you are coming from. Its the only place I can actually discuss my weight without feeling ashamed. Bad me I know. No stress about 40. It really is only a number
Isn't that what we say about the scale too? Hee Hee. But it is! And you are going to be so happy and healthy and energetic in your 40's they may end up being your best years yet!
Convenience food is the root of all evil. It has put at least 70 pounds on me. I have officially declared it my enemy!! It is just so darn convenient. I am so glad you are here. Thanks for being our weight loss buddy!
DETK1320, I'm so glad you are here. We are going to do this. It is so nice to have all of this support. I can't wait to get on here everyday to see how everyone is doing. I hope your first week at ww goes well. It seems like sometimes I forget that I am on a "diet" and I have to remind myself quickly that I no longer eat whatever I darn well please. I have to really think about what I am eating right now. I hope as the weeks go by it gets to be more "normal" for me. You are so right though. I already feel better because I feel totally determined that this time I am going to lose weight and I'm not ever going to QUIT again. I'm going to be healthy from this day forward.
basic75, Welcome. It's so nice you are here. It is nice to have people to talk to about weight loss who understand. I think this will help me a lot. How do you like your eliptical? I have been thinking about getting one. Except I just bought the DDR to do with DS. Hopefully I do it. But I have heard that the eliptical is really good. As far as the weight bar.... Go to the top of the page where it says "user cp" click on that, you can alter lots of stuff to personalize this site to you, go to the one that says "edit signature" that is where you can put all sorts of deco on your name. It entertained me for quite a while.
FM in PA, I just can't call you "fatmommy" I can't do it. Because you are not a fatmommy. You are an awesome mommy. And I feel for you girl. Cheesburgers should not be left all alone and unwanted.
It is just WRONG!!!! And you know what? Thats what I'm talking about. I need my house to be a safe place!!!! No tempting food. I am tempted enough everywhere else I go. I need a safe haven. I need to make DH understand this. But one cheeseburger is not going to ruin a week of good. Thats the great thing. Yay for you knowing today is a new day. We can't beat ourselves up. We have to be nice to us
I will try to remember that too.
Can't wait to hear how your day went today.
Selena, I just really do appreciate you getting this whole group started. This is so great for me. If we all stick together we have the potential of really bonding and supporting each other all the way to our goals!! Thank you! And I'm so glad I'm your PHAT friend.
We are going to do this.
And this thread is making it WAY more fun for me.
Okay, Water. I don't really like it all that much. I mean if I have no diet coke or coffee I might consider drinking it. But otherwise, eh, no thanks. So I guess my first goal is to lose the attitude toward the water huh? I mean water has never done anything to me. I should like it. I'm pretty positive if I had been drinking water my ankles would not be cankles and I would have lost weight my first week. I have major water retention issues. But its not the dear sweet Diet coke that does that
nooooo. So, I say we all challenge ourselves to drink very minimum of 8 8 oz glasses of water every day. Starting today. Actually too late today for a lot of you prob. Okay, but tomorrow morning it will be our mission. Got Water? yummmm. helps prevent wrinkles too!!!! I will do this because I don't want to be the weak link in our water challenge.
So drink up ladies.
Have a great day!!!! I'm so glad to have met such a great group of chicks.
Thanks for being so supportive.
"Talk" to you later
