Hi ladies... sorry I have been MIA for a while. I started a my new position at work finally and it has taken a lot out of me considering I am still working on finishing up the data entry for my research assistant position that should be over with next week. I haven't exercised much besides the fact that my new job is more physical than my last one (desk job).
I did manage to lose 3 pounds since the last time I weighed myself. This is even though there are always rolls or cookies or bagels or indian tacos or dilly bars, I could go on and on, at work. This is probably because I do so much standing and walking and lifting, etc... at work now. I think I am finally settled into my position now and next week I want to start walking during my breaks (haven't been taking them much lately) and try to find a time to exercise every day. I have been eating well, but not counting anything lately either. I have been having an apple for breakfast, simple lunch like a rice bowl (bowl appetite) or indian taco one day. Then for my afternoon break (when I take it) I have been having yogurt. I also spread out a serving of peanuts and a little pack of cheese filled cracker sandwiches (jalapeno flavored at that!) amongst the whole day. If I am not satisfied after any break, I just eat a few peanuts and a cracker sandwich thingy, etc... you get the idea. I have actually gotten to the point the last couple days that I bring home most of the pack of crackers (I love peanuts too much to not eat them... lol). Dinners haven't been the greatest, but they haven't been too bad either. I had 2 tacos and a half order of potato oles one night, a lean pocket another, a rice bowl and some deer sausage another, etc... last night I had a couple little pieces of pizza (square cut) and some little wieners in bbq sauce (bar food).
Anyways, welcome to the new ladies! I will have to try to catch up on everyone's recent posts. Hopefully I will be able to find the time to check in each or at least every other day now! Good luck to everyone!!
