Hi all!
Can it PLEASE still be July??? PRETTY PLEASE...
First, let me say that I really appreciate this site and all of your stories and encouragement.
Journaling has been going well. No problems staying OP as long as I watch the coke and alcohol ... until TOM!!! If you check the food journal page you will see that I have Really blown it over the past few days. Better than being so busy, PMSing, eating salad and then kicking puppies on the street!
H2O goes well as long as I avoid coke. Working on exercise, but not quite there yet.
Anyway, sorry to join the group and then not post much. In a nutshell: Quit graduate school (May) and had no job, boyfriend lost job (June), found a job on east coast (June), left boyfriend in SLC with dog to start work and find sublet in Boston (June) where rents are 3X as high, packed all stuff and left SLC with dog, boyfriend, truck and trailer then dropped stuff in storage (june), landlord said she is gone for a year instead of 2 months so moved all of her stuff out of house and stuff from storage in (this past weekend).
So, all moved in now (but no where near unpacked). Boyfriend still has not found work, but we will survive. Dog adjusting well, seems to have matured over the move
BFB I agree - lets say there are still 5 weeks till LD (LOL) - keep up the exercise
Elisa I have really been trying to get 6 fruits and veggies (YUCK!) in a day, so have not been "hungry", but I really miss the sodas! I usually carry one with me throughout the day so they are sorely missed. I agree, however, that giving them up is much easier than other changes I could be faced with. Keep up the good work -- sounds like you are really making lasting changes!
Juldiet Woo hoo!! No changes on the scale can compare to needing new pants!
LBH I love the journal page! Even when I go over my points by 100% it is a great place to be accountable. Great job last week dealing with a very difficult situation after WI! Glad the WE went well.
Pyria Thanks for posting the exercising thread. If I can get my big butt to the gym, I will see you there. Good luck becoming the rabbit! You know you can do it, you have already come so far.
Rabbit WOW
How many days on program?!?
RR I think the clothes are a much better indication than the scale. With all the exercise you get, I am sure you are building a lot of muscle.
Tech You have a lot of balls up in the air right now. Just remember, things have a way of working out. Don't forget, your LD goal is to maintain sanity!! Best of luck with the job search. Can't wait to here more about the wedding.
All: Sorry so long!
