Monday

  • just wanted to say good morning to all you ladies today.
    I'm still trying to get organized somewhat since going back to work.
    That's where I'm at now.
    Good morning sherri, nice talking to you last night.
    Brandon finally feel asleep in his own bed last night, and stayed there. Maybe just talking about it, the man up stairs helped us out. I do wish he could of gone to sleep a little sooner, but maybe with a little work, he will do it.
    have a great day on plan.

    You ladies for the most part seem to be doing well.

    My scale says a loss, but it's not from effort.
    I'm sure I will get back on track, I'm just not overdoing the eating which I think is what is helping.

    We aren't having meeting tonight, because so many people out of town, so hopefully I will still show this loss next week.

    Please, everyone take care and have a fun, and great day

  • Hi Wendy,

    Well megan never got to sleep until after 10 pm last night. She was so wound up from sleeping late because she was so tired when we got home yesterday. So I know what you mean when you try to get them to go to sleep. They won't close their eyes until they are ready.
    I hope you have a great day today. It was nice chatting with you last night as well. It is always nice to get to know each other seeing that we are here for one another.

    I am back to counting pts today for ww plan. I exercised twice yesterday. Once in the morning and once before I went to bed. I am exhausted but I still did the exercise. I vowed to do more exercise this week. I didn't eat good over the weekend but maybe with getting back on track today and with all the exercise I am doing it will help. If not then next week is another week.
    I am out on the road this morning. I have to go present a proposal to a hotel this morning. So I thought I would get in a couple of hours of work seeing that I had to get a sitter anyway to be able to go. Then I am on the road all day tomorrow. It isn't so bad. I really enjoy it. It is very low key and easy work. I just get to stop in and talk to all kinds of people.
    My husband is buying me a car tonight. He was so excited about it. He said I need money for this car. You are going to love it. It is in such great shape. Then he told me all about it. I was excited that I was getting such a nice car. It is a 1957 hillman. I have never heard of it before. He found a picture of it on the internet. It doesn't even have air. I said they didn't even have air for cars back then.LOL So he is getting it tonight. He said he could sell it at a car show and make a lot of money for it. I said so when are we selling it.LOL He thinks I am going to drive this thing. I don't think so. I can't wait to see it.LOL

    That is about all that is going on here. I will check in later this afternoon. I won't be working this afternoon.

    Have a great day everyone. Think thin.

  • Hi Everyone! Well today is a new day and a new week! I hope everyone is feeling great today and ready to conquer the world!

    I have a meeting today with a draftsperson for our blueprints. And trying to get an appointment with the bank! We are trying to get our house rolling, but it always takes longer than you think.

    Sherri, you never told me about this car thing???? Whats the deal??? lol

    I need to get up and get going so I will check in later! HAVE A WONDERFUL HEALTHFILLED DAY! PENNY
  • Morning guys!!!
    Well its Monday LOL, I am so glad!!! The yardsale we had at my house this weekend was sure alot of HARD work, BUT we made around 160.00 so It was worth it especially since it was at the end of the month
    I did not watch my food close at all but am sure I havent overdone it in any way, It was so nice to just eat and not stress or say No I cant eat any of that for a change, I just had a bite of whatever there was, I think that is the key to this thing, If you have a bite or two of what you want it makes you feel alot better than wanting it all the rest of the week LOL
    So we will see at weigh in if it works better for me
    I promised Sherri i wouldnt weigh myself till Thursday before my meeting, And have stuck to it so I have no idea and wont have till this week is already behind me, The good thing is, I feel good again and satisfied with me .... I think that is what is important
    Well guys I have to run for now but I will post to you all individually a little later....... Tops Hugs to you all!!!!
  • Hey Christie,

    Glad to hear that you are staying off those scales. You will do great this week. If nothing else sounds like you found yourself again. That is a major step in the right direction. I think I forgot myself to in all of this. We just have to stop and real ourselves in from time to time.
    Keep up the great work and try not to think too much about your plan. Just make healthy choices and like you said. If you want something have a few bites. It doesn't hurt to do that. It is when we eat the whole cake that it does us in.LOL Remember modification.

    Hey Penny,

    Sounds like you are pumped today also. Remember to just concentrate on getting in your water like you did before and you will start losing agian also. And your exercise. The rest will fall into place for you. I hope everything went well with the bank today.

    Well I got my car. I am not impressed. I am ready to sell it.LOL My husband is out there right now playing with it getting it to run. Yes folks it doesn't run but I am sure it will be before he comes in tonight.

    I did great on plan today and didn't even think about it. I ended up with 1235 calories, 1243 mg of sodium and only 20 grams of fat for the day. I did better then I thought I was going to do. I ate what I wanted also. And I tried something new for lunch. I am on the road tomorrow. Looks like I am having chicken wings and a salad for lunch tomorrow.

    I still have to exercise for the day tonight and finish my water which I will do. My hips sure are sore from all the exercise I have been doing. Penny just stand there and twist at the waist for 5 min at a time and in a day you will feel it to. I know you want to target certain areas. Well I am finally feeling it work in my hips and waist. So that is a good thing. I like doing the free exercise. I feel like I am getting more out of it. Plus I make my own routine so I don't get bored while listening to my favorite tape. That way you have different rhythems when exercising also.

    Not too much else going on here. Talk to you all soon.

    I am having trouble with my internet service. I should be getting a new service in a couple of days. But my email address won't change. The company that we use now is going bankrupt and I had a hard time getting on this afternoon. I tried for 3 hours until I finally got on. I was surprised to get on. I thought they had shut it down completlely. So If I am not here that is why.

    Just thought I would try and put a picture of me and my puppy on here for you all to see what I look like. This was taken in feb of this year.
