Hi everyone!
I don't know what it is, but I'm absolutely exhausted tonight. I had an earlyish night last night too. Well 10 is early for me at this time of year - it's still light at that time, so it seems strange going to bed when it's still light outside.
I had a good workout at the gym. The elliptical kept telling me to slow down to maintain my heart rate. I kept up the pace - I was pushing it, but it wasn't to stupid extreme levels. I also had my 6 monthly appraisal today. The boss and I agreed on all but one thing, so that's good that we're on the same wavelength. I've got a couple of areas that I'm working on and the boss agrees I'm making progress on them, so if I keep it up, my annual appraisal looks like being a good one come July.
And on the other side of things, it looks like the Australia trip at the end of the year will be put on hold. The friend I'm going with has decided she's getting married in October. Normally I'd be thrilled about this, but given that a week ago when we caught up for coffee she told me she was going to break up with her fiance and that this is not the first time they've set a wedding date, I'm getting a bit cynical about the whole thing. I'll believe it when I get the invitation, let's put it that way! Assuming the wedding goes ahead, we'll be looking at going to Australia in March next year, by which time I hope to be very close to goal.
Seashell, welcome aboard. I'm looking forward to getting to know you!
Rhonda, 2.4 pounds! Go you! That's fantastic stuff!
MJ, awesome stuff with the 2 lbs down and the workout!
Beverley, hope you had the fantastic day you were expecting!
Schmoodle, don't feel you have to respond to each and everyone. Just check in when it's convenient for you - we all get busy from time to time, and hopefully things will calm down for you soon.
Mollymom, I know I should make my own hummus. I have so many recipes for it that it's beyond a joke. Hmm - I might just make some once I've finished the container in the fridge.
Randi, I hope you start feeling better soon. You're having a bit of a rough time at the moment, aren't you. Sending lots of hugs and get well vibes.
Anyway, the menu for the day was:
B - English muffin, vegemite, cheese. (There's going to be a change tomorrow because I finished the English muffins today)
S - yoghurt, grapes
L - bread roll, lamb, salad, apricot
S - apricot, plums
D - rissoles, baked kumera, mushrooms, mixed vegies. I needed comfort food today, and this was as healthy as I could think of.
Have fun today, everyone!
