Had a good day yesterday, even though my hubby has decided that our life needs to be turned upside down, and he's going to find another job, which will mean moving our 4 children and probably my niece as well to another State. I've kind of been wanting it, but at the same time..it's completely scary and stressful.
Have a good OP day all!!

Oh wow! Those are some pretty big changes!
Good luck to you all. I hope it goes smoothly and the risk will really pay off for you!

Woke up and my stomach is churning... it is not happy with my decisions of foods I ate yesterday....ugh!
Hope everyone enjoys their day! |
It was interesting for me to read your post. I did 8 pretty good weeks (with the exception of my Father-in-law's passing) and sort of had 2 days off on Sunday and Monday: they were only small cheats, but cheats nonetheless and therefore, in my mind's eye they were "me taking a small break from IP".
Now I am ready to do 2 weeks of phase I boot camp and go back to regular phase I after that. It is a bit of a "starting over" but I really desperately needed the break at that point, however bad that may be. If it counts, I really, fully enjoyed my break and I am not feeling guilty at all.
I went to tap dance last night, nobody noticed my loss (but I am not really part of the "click", so I am not really surprised) but I was pleased with how I felt that I looked in those funny mirrors (I was expecting to see the old me in there but the new me showed up instead!) and I am all motivated again! I am no longer one of the heavier girls in the room but there was another girl there who inspired to me continue (there's alway one, isn't there?). I know I can do this the rest of the way now!
I think I needed the break most because I expected to be done and phasing off by now and it is taking longer than my coach had said it would before I started and than I expected for it to take. I am happy with my progress but grew discouraged, impatient and sad. I was mourning certain food items and just couldn't take it any more.

You have so much to be proud of!

OTC pain meds was one thing I really wanted to stop having (Tylenol, Advil, Excedrine). I broke down this morning and had 2 Tylenol. I couldn't imagine taking all three kids out today with my headache. Good news... the Tylenol already worked and I feel much more ready for my day! I liked my packets yesterday (oatmael, tomato basil soup, butterscotch pudding). Looking forward to today (omelet, leek soup, and I haven't decided on night snack yet). |
Make sure to get all of your water, have some extra salt (it helps with the headaches) and yeah, I took Tylenol too duirng those first days. You'll feel way better soon!

Question as I'm gearing up for my final few weeks of college, which I KNOW will be nothing but food that I must avoid (luckily at this point, I'm strong enough that I don't WANT to blow it at a pizza buffet). Anyway, I'm rambling because that's what finals week does.... So what I'm trying to ask is... Does anyone know if we can have curry?

I don't know about curry... I hope you get your answer but I wanted to wish you good luck in your final weeks!
