Jennie, I stopped the late eating also. I make sure I go upstairs when everyone does so that I am not tempted to snack alone. Some nights when I stay up late my stomach hurts a little because it's been so long since I ate and water makes me nauseous if my stomach is empty. Can't win at night
Diana I know how I felt when my doggie was sick, she wouldn't move and it scared the life out of me. She just laid in the middle of the kitchen floor and wouldn't move and I yelled at her. Then she threw up I felt so bad for yelling. When our oldest son came in, she dragged herself to him and finally started wagging her tail after throwing up again. She must have ate something bad in the yard. She was like that for a few hours.
Penguin I love chicken thighs, unfortunately I always fried them so I haven't had them in a while. Hubby only likes breast and wing so I would eat the thighs by myself (greedy huh) I need to check out your link.
Aimee, you'll be fine
Congratulations to everyone on all of the losses. The scale is moving for me again I am at 176.2.
Swingirl, thanks for the support. I made Veggie Mac and Cheese from scratch last night and it didn't kill us so I won't give up the cooking. It was good too, and I don't even like mac and cheese.
That sounds really good . . . where did you find that recipe?
I got the original recipe idea from the Volumetrics cookbook. That version had tomato and broccoli. I had leftover veggies {broc, cal, corn, zuc, carrots} and added onion, green pepper, garlic. I didn't think I was making a lot but ended up with a full 13x9 pan, and had to double the milk/cheese, and I used 2 cups of ww pasta. A 2 cup serving came to about 300cals. I think any Mac and Cheese recipe would work.
Kukkie - I've started digging into my freezer, and pick up some eggs! Eggs are cheap-ish, thats my solution right now.
penguin - it does sound quite yummy! It's been steamy here too, you feel like you are inhaling steam.. ugh! But probably good for the pores
FitGirly - thats pretty much what happened to us too! Josh got a 300 dollar ticket just before we left, and then insisted on a trip to the coast for 3 days to play golf - which ended up costing us about 800 dollars! We are recovering and will be back to normal by next week. Still sucks in some ways!
I got on the scale this morning, down .2. Still chugging along I guess!
Well, it looks like TTOM water weight is taking its time coming off me. It is coming off, that's all that matters, I guess. It could be from the lack of sleep earlier in the week, too. I just thought about that.
188.0 this morning, steadily going down .2 each day. I'm not going to complain, im just going to say I'll be really excited for a woosh and even more excited if I keep this momentum at TOM
Up slightly... +0.7 to 197.8. Combination of not enough water and not enough sleep. We have a wedding reception tonight too, eek at a place that's known for good food. I'm going to have to try REALLY HARD not to indulge. In any case, I'm painting the basement this weekend, so that should be a good workout!
Coondocks - you changed your picture! It's totally adorable!

I did It's good motivation for the temptation days . . . if my 18 month old can pick apples and other fruits over ice cream and cake . . . there's no reason I can't do the same thing
