I am SO grouchy tonight. First of all, I bit the bullet and weighed in this AM. I am UP TO 219!!!!!!!!!!!! I can only hope it is partly water weight. But I am just tired. I took my kids to Walmart. BIG mistake when you already have a headache and are feeling irritable. But I did go to the gym today. That's a plus. Tomorrow is therapy. Can't wait. I think I'm just hungry, too. I'm gonna have some yogurt. I'm kinda in a babbling mood tonight. Can anyone tell? Hmmm. I wonder if I can get the kids to bed at a decent hour tonight. I need some quiet. Oh, I bought calgon at walmart. Calgon, take me away!!!

Okay, this is getting silly. Maybe I'm more tired than I thought. Better go. Gonna read some more posts, then email the husband. Damn, life is better when we just communicate via email!!!

I hear ya Marcie! SOme days the best thing you can do for yourself is take a nice bath and go to bed early...

Hope today is a better day!

Wow! I go crazy in Walmart when it's just me. You took kids?!?

Marcie, it's contagious. I gained 2 lbs overnight - my dear husband decided to bring potato chips home. I have no self-control and I ate 1/2 the bag before I threw them in the trash. Then I made it worse by eating a bowl of ice cream.

I told my husband if a potato chip that's not a Pringle comes into our house again, it's going in the trash can out on the patio and he's moving to the patio with it!

I know it's not his fault; it's mine. They are my trigger food and I can't have just one.

Hi Marcie,

I hope the Calgon relaxed you & that you're feeling better today.

Oh girls....take a deep breath, throw out the junk food and GET SOME SLEEP! I find I want to eat more when I have not slept enough. The scale is also higher. Weird but TRUE for me!!! When I get enough sleep I am much better. Try it!!!!

How are you doing today Marcie? Give yourself a big hug - or have Rebecca give you one!
Anita-I am the same way. I think I'm hungry when I'm tired.

Marcie,
I hope you are feeling better!
I should be Grrrrrrr today as I have been home with sick kids for two days but...then I watched Oprah...big mistake...it was on the bird Flu and I work in Healthcare and now instead of GRRRRRR...I am


Oh well despite my Type A personality..This I cannot Control..so..let's dance!

Allie,

I missed that episode of Oprah. I wanted to watch that because of all the talk of the bird flu. Can you give a summary of what was said. PLEASE!!! Basically I want to know when, where, and what I can do to help my family.
Thanks!

Sleep loss may equal weight gain

It is NOT all in your head!

Thanks for the encouragement, everyone. I am feeling much better today. Sleep is hard to come by these days. I lay in bed, and my brain starts freaking out. It will NOT let me fall asleep. I'm too tired to get up and watch TV or anything. Hopefully tonight will be better.

Had a great day, though. Homeschool, therapy, and cleaned the garage!! I was going to go to the gym, but cleaning for 3 hours wore me out enough. I will do some strength stuff tonight during American Idol.
