HOW IS YOUR DAY GOING???

Penny,

Morning girl. Don't you ever sleep?LOL That is great about the donations you have so far. You are doing an awesome job. Keep up the great work. I am glad to hear you are doing so well on your plan to with all you have going on. You are a busy woman.

As for me I started out the new year on a fresh note. I sat down last night and made a morning and night routine for me and megan. I have to get organized this year and start being on time to things and work instead of running around like a mad woman. I started my plan fresh I was up 2 lbs over the weekend from weigh in now I am down and actually 1 lb under weigh in amount. So I am happy about that. Wendy and I are keeping in touch throughout the day to keep both of us motivated to stay on plan. I want this to be my year for so much and the only way I am going to make things happen is to get to work. I can't keep sitting back and wishing for things that doesn't get the job done.
Well my time is done here have to go get megan up for school. I will check back in later. Have a great day all. We can do this together.

Sherri

Good morning, You two girls are up early
Sherri, Good luck on getting organized. I've been trying for almost 59 years and still haven't got it down yet. But am better tho. I guess I am such a slob at heart. I use to hate those spotless houses where everything is so perfect. I don't hate them now but I will never be that good. How do you expert housekeepers do it??????? My house has a very lived in look
I am doing better.Not weight loss but health in general. Trying to get back some simblance of normalcy.
Weight loss is a real priority but with tyhroid not working well it makes it harder.Once heart is better doc will adjust tyhroid meds. I am a regular drug store.Thank god for good health insurance even if the cost keeps rising.
Have a good day and take it day by day and don't be too hard on yourself.

Sherri,
Sounds like you have a great plan going! This is our year to lose this weight!

I am going to succeed and I'm not stopping!!!

Eleni,

Susie will be so happy when she gets here and sees all the posts...

Hope you all have a great afternoon!

C ya lighter!

Hi! You bet I'm HAPPY to see all these posts! Way to go gals!
I didn't think I was going to make it here tonight and then I thought, you know...I don't really need to do a load of wash, I need to give myself sometime on the computer with my support team--YOU GUYS!

I think it's the first time, in a long time, I didn't do something that I thought I should.

I did very well with the phone calls today. I made about 10 of them and I have some people who will be calling back. I think I'll be handling them on my own. My manager seemed ok with the way I handled the calls. That made me feel a little better.

I've still been dealing with a little bit of "homesickness" about my old place of employment, but I found out something today that helped a great deal (I've been praying to be able to get over that I used to be the best at what I did and be able to move on in my new position and not look back). I found out today that most of the office workers at my old job will be laid off by March 31! I KNOW that He was watching over me.

I went for a 45 min walk tonight. I usually do a 30 min walk and then some weight training, but I felt like I needed to just concentrate on relaxing with my walk and I really got into it. By the time I was finished, I could feel that my neck had relaxed and that my shoulders didn't feel like they were up around my ears1 (anyone else feel like that after sitting at a desk all day?)

Eleni: I have thyroid problems as well, so I understand that battle of it and the weight loss. Just concentrate on getting back to feel good.

Penny: You have the biggest heart! Glad to hear that you are doing well with your plan.

Sherri: I think it's great you are mapping out a plan to get where you want to be with work and everything else in your life. As they say "If it's to be, it's up to me!"

Christian: Nice to see you again. I was looking at the other posts with your food on it. Great idea! I'm one that when I have trouble staying on plan, logging my food gets me back on it and I think it helps to think about others seeing it. Also, I'm in agreement with you: This is our year! BTW, did you get the tree down? It's so much more fun to put it up isn't it?

Ok..I need to head to bed. Talk to you tomorrow.

Susie

Susie,

It sounds like you are doing well! Congrats to you!!!!!
