Hey guys, so at my official weigh in I was 148.6 !!! So I'm finally outta the 150's !! Good luck everyone , hope to see you soon in the 140's :)

Welcome paja! :wave:

Sasha, that's awesome that your scales read the same! I have been meaning to get a 5 lb weight and put it on my scale to see if it's actually right I would hate to think I'm not as light as i've been thinking! And I've had my scale for a while so who knows!

sun, thanks girl! And I have my fingers crossed that your scale is nice to you on Monday! ;)

stargzr, yay for 156! I've got my fingers crossed that you'll see 154 on your official WI that would be awesome! And have fun on your date night I'm sure you'll do great!

kirjava, your plans sound awesome! I used to have that problem with cheating on the weekends too but it's just not worth it when you begin to mess up all your hard work from the week ya know? Good luck you can do it!

Nicole, woo hoo! That is an awesome NSV way to go!! And I know what you mean about annoying cycles, mines been here for two weeks with no end in sight. I hope it gets better for you soon. :hug:

bama, craving salad is great! It's awesome when you find something you like so much that's actually good for you!

Congrats caleighsmommy!! I hope to join you soon!

So I've had a hectic 24 hours. We were crazy busy at work today and I didn't get to bed last night til almost 4am because my son woke up about midnight with a horrible barking cough and trouble breathing so my dbf and I took him to the ER and they wanted him to stay for a while so they could monitor him. It turns out he's got croup which is a viral infection and can't be treated with antibiotics so it'll just have to go away on it's own. He seems like he's feeling better today but they say it's worse at night so we'll see... On the plus side I was totally OP with my food today and it looks like the scale is starting to go down again. Hope everyone has a good weekend! :)

Congratulations, Caleighsmommy!

I'm sorry about your son, fashin. I hope it goes away quickly so he can feel better. Way to go staying OP during a stressful situation... those are what make me turn to food!

kirjava, thank you! And stress usually makes me turn to food as well but I guess maybe since I was so busy yesterday I didn't have time to eat anything but what I had planned so it worked out really well!

My son is doing much much better, his cough is not quite as dry and he only woke up once last night, yay! I was getting worried but thank goodness he doesn't seem to stay sick long *knock on wood* :)

Awww, Fashin, I'm so glad your son is doing better. :)

And on a random note, I'm going to Disney!!!! Just...8 more hours, LOL, then I'll be on a plane! And 14 hours and I'll be there! Wooo!

Weight today - 159.
Calories eaten yesterday - 2000+! LOL, ok, that was really bad. But my ex-boyfriend and I had plans and he bailed on me to go out with girls from his work...which sucked because I stayed home to do our TV night. So I turned to cookies and ice cream...stupid breakup. Stupid boyfriend. He called me at 2am yelling at me for "not being a final fantasy fan" because if I was, I'd still be awake playing it. Never mind that I had an appointment at 8am today, or that that was f*ing stupid, lol. Then he said he loved me, which made me feel better, if not temporarily.

Argh. Looking forward to a vacation.

Aw Nicole, thank you! And I'm so sorry. I don't mean to be rude but he sounds toxic bailing on you and then calling you at a crazy time and saying he loves you. I know it makes you feel better but be careful! I wish you the best you are doing great and you will be ok without him!! :hug: On a happier note, have fun at Disney! I absolutely love Disney and I am so jealous! ;)

I'm glad to hear your son is feeling better, fashin!

I'm sorry you ended up going overboard yesterday, Nicole. I hate to say it, but I agree with fashin that it sounds like that relationship is toxic. Bailing on you, yelling at you, then trying to make it all better with an "I love you" is not something a good, supportive person does. It's always hard when a relationship ends, but you seem strong and you can be happy without him in your life. You deserve better, and I bet it won't be hard for someone like you to find better!

Have a great vacation!

oh boy, baddd night last night! 6 beers and 4 slices of pizza (at 4am, no less!)later....wowwww that was terrible :-( i never do that! ever! pizza actually grosses me out now! ive been so OP for the last month and a bit! just gotta pick myself back up and stop drinking like that! brutalll

Thanks kirjava!

Nurse, don't beat yourself up too bad just get right back OP and I'm sure you'll do great! When is your official WI? Hopefully you can drink lots of water and stay OP and get right back to where you were, good luck!

Ugh after this past cr*ppy week or so, Ive postponed my weigh in till probably Wednesday. I dont want to see the scale go up at all.

fashin Sorry about your son and I hope he feels better soon. Good for you not giving in to cravings and keeping yourself on plan :)

ValentineNicole That is so crazy! I hope you firgure out what you need and all this hurt ends soon. Its sounds really painful. :hugs:

WannabeNurse yeowza! Just pick yourself up and start again! YOU CAN DO IT!

Pinkberrry I know how you feel. I am in the same boat! UGH I feel so yucky and am so mad at myself to mess up for 2 weeks. :(

Tia87 Welcome!

ok ladies tell me if you see a difference. The first was taken pre P90X and the second was taken after a month. Be honest. I feel like there is no change. Bleh I am such a fattie right now :(

Thanks Kirjava, Sun, and Fashin. I agree he's not always the best for me. He did apologize today, and I think he's just trying to figure out how to be separate but friends. I was his first girlfriend, so it's weird on him. The truth is, he's a nice guy but a little clueless. He means well though.

I'm feeling much better today. No increase in the scale after yesterday, so that's nice. I'm back on track today, except I just now sat down to eat. Lunch was good - lots of chicken, a yogurt, and some tortilla chips. I did have 2 packets of pretzels on the plane, but the minute I got to the hotel I grabbed a chicken caesar salad. I'm going easy on the dressing (it's on the side so I'm dipping my fork in), but there's a TON of chicken here. I'm sure the calories are high, but I don't mind that for lean protein so much. I'm famished!! Commence project "ignore the croutons."
