I'm proud of myself right now. The CEO (I work at a small company) is buying everyone Rita's water ice today he came by to let me know, and I had to pass up, when I explained why, he said good for me, and he will support my efforts, yay, I'm excited as most of the office is rooting for me, I'm not trying to lose a huge amount, but more trying to make sure I'm healthy so that I don't keep on the weight gain path, the past year I've put on more than I had in the previous 5 years since graduating college. Gotta stop this in it's tracks, and it's working, with office and boyfriend support!!!

Babs and Carlasherea, you did great! I think it's also good, Babs, that you are enlisting the support of your office and boyfriend. When I start a diet (or something similar) I ask for the support of those around me. Makes changing habits and working towards a difficult goal much easier.

Babs and Carla- Nothing feels as good as knowing you made a great decision for your health and you will soon be looking Fine! I had that happen too with a staff lunch. I felt pretty good, but had to get away from the "goodies" fast. No use making it harder than it has to be.
Jordanna - great idea for the vanilla and chocolate shakes for variety. Congratulations to all the great losers, those with NSVs and ALL of us that are making a choice to live more healthfully! Yeah for us! |

MuayThaiGoddess -
I read your all bold post just now and wanted to comment right away- I have read that a magnesium deficiency could be to blame for the tingling feelings you are getting. Also, don't worry about the cornstarch or other ingredients in your medications - you are on them with a doctor's order, just like this diet. I recently started taking this stuff called Calm - my clinic sold it to me. You can find it online too. It's raspberry-Lemon flavored and sweetened with stevia. It's an absorbable form of magnesium. I think you should try it. Magnesium is supposed to help with lots of things, absorbing calcium, sleeping (I have insomnia from pain or the pain meds). The official name is : Natural Calm by Peter Gillham's Natural Vitality The tingles are really scary because most of the time I think it's nerve pain. Going to my chiropractor to help my crooked back seems to help. I'll send you the link via personal message after this meeting (work!). Hang in there! I hope you feel better! :) |

Hey all
Firstly i wanted to say i am quite proud of myself. Yesterday i went to 2 bars. The first was with my friends from work and everyone was drinking beer and having a great time, and there i was drinking.....WATER!!!! All i wanted to do was leave cause i knew if i had to stay there i would have caved and started drinking. Next after my hockey game i went to the bar again with my hockey friends. I was starving and i figured i would just have dinner while they all drink. Again i ordered water and a chicken salad with no dressing, croutons, bacon bits, or cheese. They were all looking at me like what has gotten into you!!!! Anyways, as much as i wanted to have some beer i didnt, which is a big deal for me. I have my second weigh in tomorrow so im just hoping its going to be all worth it. I guess i will find out tomorrow. |
