Hi All,
I'm feeling 110% better, finally. I think it was definately the fact that I slept for about 11 hours last night. But boy do I feel fabulous!! I've been having some wierd pain in some of my back muscles, but I'm pretty sure its just that the cold virus is hanging out there before it leaves me. I ate lots of garlic and cayenne pepper yesterday (thanks PNG!) and I feel really good. It's about time is all I can say!!

After my horrible weekend, I managed to lose .2 lbs. Yay! I would have taken just staying the same, so losing a little was better than I expected!!

Moving plans are proceeding, we've signed the lease and given away all the money we have (lol). We actually managed to get a week's rent back from our current landlord, so that's great news as well. I cannot WAIT to get out and into the new apartment.. That day cannot come soon enough I'll tell you that. I've managed to get a lot of stuff packed up too, so that's a relief. One whole room is done except for the closet. Tonight I plan to pack all the clothes I'm not wearing regularly so we can move Greg's clothes into my closet. I'm rapidly filling that extra bedroom up with boxes!!! We're getting our "new" table this weekend, so most of the details are slowly but surely getting taken care of. My in-laws are actually coming out to our apartment this weeekend for the first time... It figures considering we're moving out in 3 weeks!! Oh well. We have to get as much packing as possible done this weekend because we have plans for almost every weekend until the move! So that will be a little crazy, but we should get through just fine.

I had a great WW meeting last night too.. I went to the later of the two Tuesday night meetings (same leader) and really liked the second one better. There were less people, and more people in my age and situation brackets, so that was really encouraging.

Since we're showing off our body art, here's a pic of my tattoo which is on my left shoulder. I got it on my honeymoon! It barely hurt at all.. its more annoying than painful to get it done in my opinion.. but I will say that the closer you are to bone, the more it hurts. The inside edge (closer to my shoulder bone) hurt the most. So if you want one but want to avoid pain, I would suggest finding a fleshy or muscular area to get it done like your shoulder or your arm or your behind ! I will probably end up with one more, I'd like to get one on my lower back or something like that.. I like to keep them where I can cover them up if I need to but also where I can show them off.

jennifer.. i didn't remember if i suggested that you use a low-carb version. some of these supplements are pretty high in carbs and calories.

so , if you're looking for a meal replacement, go low carb.

and you can also check out protein bars. some folks find them very convenient. i find them very gross. there's one decent one, though, that i found at cvs. it comes in rocky road flavor, and has about 20 g protein in less than 200 calories. do i remember the name/??// I ONLY wish i did!!

OMG..I really thought it was Friday for about 10 minutes! And it's not. Sorry to dissapoint you all. lol

Well, it's almost Friday, that's what counts. I am almost fearing this weekend. 3 days of lots of food and drinks. How will I surive without a gain? I am planning my attack right now so I am prepared...I can do this! I can. I know I can. lol

How are you all going to survive? Any exciting plans for the holiday? Still unsure of what I will be doing, but I know it will be fun.

Still going strong and feeling good. This is a really good week for me. Woohoo!

BA..Nice tattoo!! Happy packing, I can't wait to begin myself.

Jiffy..Heehee, guess I should have mention the low carb one, guess that would have helped. I've tried the protien bars, and one of them tasted like uhm, I'll let you use your own words. lol I will keep experimenting though.

Happy Thursday!!! Feels like Friday...weekend before a Holiday. I have been doing pretty good lately. Making better choices. Actually having a perfect OP day and it's after lunch!! Had a tomato basil soy burger for lunch. OMG!! Soooo good. I would have never thought I'd like that kind of stuff. Feeling good, feeling strong.

Just wanted to say Hi to everyone. No huge plans this weekend. Just family time.

I am so excitied today.. I take my 2 1/2 year old to the YWCA for a class called play and learn on Thursdays.. today we signed her up for DANCE!!!

I need to get her some ballet shoes and tap shoes... TOO CUTE. She is so pumped that she gets to wear tights.

BA - cute tattoo.. I could never get that done. I am so scared of needles!

Off to the dr this afternoon for my physical - oh the fun of being a woman.

Have a great weekend all!

Happy Happy Thursday to you all!

My 5 year old daughter just made my day. She said "Mommy, I think your still losing weight because you look more skinnier." All I could do was give her a big hug. I dont see a diffrence yet, other then my pants fitting a tad better, but I was overjoyed all the same and thought I would share my moment with you all.
Tomorrow is WI so hopefully I'll get the proof in numbers I'm hoping for.

What brand of veggie burgers do you all buy? I have tried them once before and it was not the most pleasent experience. Perhaps it was just the brand I chose, so I'm willing to give them another shot.

I LOVE BOCA BURGERS! Actually anything BOCA. And the best part is there are TONS of different flavors. I like the American Classic (or something like that) and the Grilled Chicken.

I AM HAVING A FANTABULOUS DAY! I had a great day with hubby yesterday, but then life got INSANE At work. BUT, then my brother agreed to lend me some $$ short term so we can go get the furniture we need from IKEA this weekend.. and THEN my hubby called to tell me he'd just gotten us tickets to see Alanis Morrisette, who is my all time FAVORITE female artist. I AM SO EXCITED!! AND I JUST CAN'T HIDE IT!!

WHOOOPPEEEEE!
