Good morning everyone! Hope everyone is having a good day.
My first diet day was yesterday and was good (I ate 1333 calories; I was aiming for 1350). I feel more energized today even without my coffee and with staying up late with the little one last night! :D I hope that this continues. I don't think that I drank enough water though (about three 12 oz cups), so I need to watch out from now on. I'm starting my exercising today. Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday for 45 minutes each is what I am planning on. Have a fabulous day Ladies! |
I'm cracking up at Littlered keeping up with Zenor's numbers. lol who's my number buddy?? :D

Just a quick post.
Zenor ~ Won't mention that stuff again! SORRY! Tinky ~ You are so lucky not to have a sweat tooth because mine just keeps getting worse and worse. I think I will have to go cold turkey to get it under control again but first I must muster the strength and not up to it right now. I will just make sure I keep it under control. NurseChef ~ Mine is my feet and hands when I go Chinese. I can literally feel them puffing up while I am eating. Then I get really tired. I know their food can be healthy but I have been avoiding it lately because they have to be putting something in their food. I don't know if its the MSG or what but their food isn't that tasty. I am going to post this and on to the next page. :-) |
OK, I guess there were only a couple of posts here this time.
Work has been hectic but I just couldn't help but stop in to see my friends. I think I was missed yesterday. MIL must not be to worried because they released her from the hospital and she is smoking still. She used to tell me that smoking was her one vice in the world and she is going to do it until she dies. I have the feeling she is going to be true to her word. ARG! BIL is rationing her cigs and not letting her smoke as heavily as she normally does. They are running test for the next couple of days to figure everything out which is scarry. They have places to go help you dry out, recover from drugs, so why don't they have a place to go recover from cigs? Doing really well so far today. I am actually low on calories as I haven't taken the time to eat all my food because I have been running around with my head chopped off. Good exercise but a little confusing. HAHAHA! Have to get going and will talk at you all tomorrow. |
Grammy~ No worries! Lol. It's the pms more than anything. My mom always used to buy them because my sister's name is Debbie, she thought it was funny since the girl on the package kinda looks like my sis when she was little. My mother had a massive sweet tooth! I used to joke that you could hand her a spoon and a bag of sugar and she'd just dig in.

Hey everyone!! Well I am having a really crappy day and wanted to eat and eat. So I did and I ate tons of pickles!! LOL Don't know what that will do to my weight tomorrow, but I know there is barley any calories in them. We finally got a new manager at work, not the one I wanted. Plus I never even got called for a interview, which really makes me mad. The person they hired has no experience in our field!!! Just makes me mad. Then my computer at work is so slow that it was driving me nuts. So that is why I had a terrible day. And it ain't getting any better here at home. So with that said.... I will talk to yall later!

A new day.:hug: Has you pc at work been clean up lately? you know, cookies, etc. that helps speed up a pc. to clean it. As far as the pickles go... I know people who drink pickle juice instead of prune juice. as a laxitive. Hope your ok later. |

We have a bag of oreo's staring at me... Used them in the ice cream cake. mmm oreos. Nope have not had one! :carrot:Hubby better hide them. or take them to work. |
Good Evening!!!
Crafty- Yes water can be a bit tricky. If you're in a spot where you can run to the bathroom every 5-10 its ok, but otherwise it's a pain, but necessary. I just try to drink a cup of water every hour I'm at work. Being stuck in traffic..no FUN! LOL GrammyL- Well the lack of sweet tooth, is nice but when TOM comes OMG....keep anything with sugar away! LOL! I can get into serious trouble. Petra- I hope you have a better day tomorrow!!!!! ;) LittleRed- OMG...I remember back in high school, when my friend I were at her house, she would take a glass of ice and fill it up with Pickle Juice...she drank it like water. I was sitting there and staring in amazement. That was her favorite afternoon snack. :dizzy: For her grad present, I got her one of those big huge pickle jars from Costco. LOL! My calories for today :1369 ( a little low,I had alot yesterday) and 33 grams of fiber My menu for today: B: Kashi Go Lean Crunch, with one banana and skim milk S: boiled egg, Orange L: Salad, Lentil Soup S Dannon Light strawberry yogurt, and 13 almonds D: "Jilpotle" Bowl |
Calories for today~ 1433
Fiber~ 31 grams I'm tired. I'll post more tomorrow. |
for Tuesday
Calories 1545 fiber 47 water 80 oz. missed 2 of my glasses yesterday. Its ok. I am Down 1 more today! Talk about surprised. :dance: Not even waiting to see if it stays off. I have not been fluctuating up at all. (accept this one time last week end.) I think this waitress thingy at the nursing home is helping! That and working out most days. Off to curves. later :wave: |
Yesterday, towards the end of the work day, our boss surprised us by saying we're going out to breakfast tomorrow. To Denny's. I'm shuffling some of my calories around, eating my lunch calories for breakfast. I also found their menu online and choose a veggie omelete and english muffin for only 330 calories. Not too bad for my first real world meal.
Tinky - That's too funny. I live near LA so I've totally been the one stuck in traffic, just dying to get to a bathroom. Gotta go fix my meals for the day. Have a great day everyone! |
Good Morning everyone..I decided to do a late start, so here I am at home at 9:39.
Craffty- Boy that is one thing I don't really miss about So. Cal. You spend your majority in the car. Though I don't know how it is in San Diego, my parents have since relocated there after I moved out. LOL Thank goodness for Online nutrition facts! Have a great breakfast. LittleRed-Way to go girl!!!!! I decided to peak at the scale too, and it went down one, but we'll see...I won't post until I see that for two days in a row. LOL Yes, I find myself running out breath sometimes when I help serve my residents. Well haven't plugged in my menu, but will post later. Have a great Hump Day everyone!!! |
It was a great morning. I talked to my boss and I have to use up at least 18 days of vacation this summer. The way I decided to do it is working half days and taking long weekends. I don't see much use of taking three weeks off because DH has to work and I would get stressed out. I love this working half days thing. I was able to sleep in until :o 7:00 am :o. I set the alarm but I was still tired so I turned it off and went back to sleep. I feel like such a slacker. Then I set my menu for the day, ate breakfast, took DGS (stayed the night) and the dog for a walk and then got my pony out for a short drive. I did it all before the days heat set it. I hate getting the horses out in the heat and making them work. So this great! Plus I have more energy and the weight of the world isn't one me yet. I thank my boss for letting me do it when I got in because it is just a fantastic way to use up all that vacation.
UPDATE ON MIL: I stopped to see her last night and she still doesn't use that hand, just sits and holds it. I never saw her walk so I don't know if she is still dragging her leg or not. The test they ran yesterday showed a 70% blockage on in one carotid artery and the other is at 25%. More tests today before they decide what to do. She said other than the paralysis she feels fine. She is definitely smoking less. Only one in the 45 minutes I was there. I am down a pound today and like Littlered I am moving my ticker today. Crafty Mom ~ WTG on looking up and seeing what you can have in advance. Actually what your having sounds yummy to me. Littlered ~ Glad the nursing home work is helping you. It does help to keep busy. I have a friend that is a twig that is a sugar hound. That is about all she eats is sweets, OH and pizza but once slice and she is full. Toaster Struddles are her favorite food on earth. Petra ~ :hug: BIG HUGS :hug:. The same type of thing almost happened to me at work and I told them if they hired someone else to do the job I already knew how to do I would not train the person that took the position. I also told them I was looking to advance and if I didn't advance in this department then I would move up in another department. I was hired. There was no way I was going to train someone else for a position that I was qualified for and must be I was firm enough that they knew I was serious. This is not a department that you can just walk in off the street and know how to do it and the University doesn't allow overlap training periods. Better that you ate pickles than something else. Oh the pickle juice stories are so yucky. I am not a huge pickle fan so it makes my tummy roll because I had cousins that used to fight over who got to drink the pickle juice. It just makes my tummy roll to think about it. They are low in calories but the salt, YICKS! Yesterdays Menu: Breakfast: Chik Patty, 2 slices ww light bread Snack: 1 Laughing Cow, 2 Tbsp ff hummus, 2 light wasa Lunch: Smart One Chicken Meal (forget type), Salad, Chocolate Drizzles Snack: 1 Laughing Cow, 2 Tbsp ff hummus, 2 light wasa Dinner: Smart One Lasagna, Bell Pepper Salad, Healthy Choice Fudge bar Snack: 100 Cal pack popcorn, 2 turkey franks Calories: 1440 I think I am going to be around 1200 calories today which is really low for me. I didn't take the time to eat my morning snack and I forgot my pudding for my lunch. I will still be in a good, safe range. I better get going because I am only working 4 hours and I need to squeeze in 8 hours worth of work. HAHAHAHA! Just kidding, I am not going to work at top speed to get things done. It will be here tomorrow. |
