The relationships we have with our work "families" can be almost as close as our "real" families - sometimes closer! Thinking of you and wishing I could take your sadness away. It's wonderful that you will be there to support the family. It will bring both of you some measure of peace at this very hard time.

I hope someone can answer me. I wanted to get roasted chicken at Boston Market (without skin) for Thanksgiving. Would that be ok for phase 1?

I did the same over the weekend! It felt good to get things out of the house - any new clothes I buy from here on out will be in smaller sizes - no going back to the bigger ones!

It is fascinating but I am still reading it. So, for the first week of P3 I am going to try to keep the carbs low so not to completely knock myself out of ketosis. I will chat with my coach about it.

Tons of work this morning so off I go. Have a great day everyone!
Good luck and keep us posted on how it's going!

So sorry for your loss.

She commented on how noticeable it was and how good a job I am doing. That made my day!

Second, I am wearing size ten jeans tonight for the first time in years, perhaps decades! Yay! So thrilled!
Great NSVs!

Today I got my box of alternative stuff from Nashua! It was like Christmas - who would have thought I've ever be this excited about diet food? I am glad I made the switch to save some money and also get some more variety.

Sweetness-- The website's nutrition information shows the following for 1/4 white meat, skinless: 220 calories, 20 from fat; 2.5 g fat; 1 g carb and 49 g protein.

Seems good to me, maybe someone more experienced will chime in. My only question would be how many ounces of meat you'd get from a quarter chicken.

So I think my body has decided to take a break this week and just stay where it's at (at least I hope it stays where it is at).... But that's ok, I know it will start moving again before long
On a side note, my mom ordered me some boxes of Quest bars off ebay, and I had asked her to buy me two boxes, well she didn't realize that the description said that the sale was 2 boxes in inself, so she ordered two sets of bars... so I have 4 boxes of the Chocolate Brownie bar coming in (I havent tried that flavor so I hope its good)....

I love this! Opening those boxes is like Christmas. Hey, retail therapy is retail therapy. Enjoy, and let us know how you like your choices!

If it has sugar, I would steer clear. It was probably injected with a sugar solution. Try a plain rotisserie chicken from the grocer.
