I am feeling so disconnected....busy at work and can't even log on at lunch...so have to scrounge evening time to read and post.
Congrats Star to getting so close to "normal"....
BizzyLizzy - ready about the cigs in the lunch box - I think you should put the lunch box back but put some of those Popeye candy cigarettes inside - and try and be around when your SO tries to sneak a smoke - should be pretty funny!
Day 4 on the job and I am still trying to get my head around the organization and what I will be doing....also trying to deal with new computer systems (lotus notes and databases and common drives....ugh...). Have registered for a Lotus Notes course but have to wait til Feb 18th!...also have a few more courses already lined up (Orientation course Feb 3-4 and the introduction module to Performance Management to be followed by 3 others in march).
I am working in an all female environment (9 of us)...well actually the Director is male. Different age groups, backgrounds, etc.....one of my tasks this week is to sit with each member of the team for one hour and find out what they do. This is has been very fun and interesting...and I am finding out who I REALLY GET ALONG WITH...altho everyone is very nice I do have more in common with some and not others!
Trying to stick to plan...not bad, but I notice the bad wine fairy has gotten to me again....we decided to have some red wine with our lovely rib steak and salad dinner....which I think makes me lose control.....had to whip up some cream w/splenda....then half a bagel started calling my name.....I buttered up, enjoyed it...ready to move on. I am still in ketosis...and actually back in ketosis - which is a really good thing!
Lekker - tell us how the movie is! I also LOVE watching movies and actually seeing places I've been (that's me in the crowd yelling "I've been there, I've been there).
I too try to stay away from the nasty sugar alcohols - there is a pharmacy downstairs from where I work and the have a great selection of sf candy and chocolate...I have gone over to "look" at them, but have not yet bought any. I will wait tll I really NEED some and I know my tummy will get upset and I also question the whole net carbs thing so i try and avoid them. I now chew some sf gum when I start to get desperate!
Where's Jamie - anyone seen her lately?
Okay....lights out time - need my beauty sleep for tomorrow...can't believe I made it to Friday! I did check and they do dress down on Fridays (altho I must say some of the ladies dress extremely casually during the week)...so I look forward to wearing my jeans tomorrow (size 14 petite by the way!).
Later,
Froufy
