SLUMBER PARTY AT FROUF'S HOUSE! You are all more than welcome to march up here anytime and camp out at my place - what a hoot that would be!...and I agree w/Vickie about our meeting being quite a happening thing!
I would never say no to pampering!
I am feeling a bit fuzzy headed today and lethargic - could not even drive fast on the highway to work today - what's up with that? Of course woke up w/a headache and a bit stuffed, but I think it's my allergies starting up due to the warmer weather (trees/grass etc). Took some decongestant/pain killer so hope this will help. Good news is TOM is finally over! YIPPEE.
Yes dh has some redeeming qualities - but frankly right now I can't come up w/too many??? I do try to remember he does have some emotional/childhood issues of his own, and his being unemployed right now certainly does help at I know he feels badly about that as well. Hope at least his therapist or our therapist will help him "mature" and understand what being a team player really means!
Now Vickie - walking to "sex and the city" - not sure if that is such a good idea - unless you really want to glow and sweat? ha ha ha If you were dreaming about assassins after watching 24 we can only imagine what you'll be dreaming of after watching "sex and the city" (watch out Jim!)
I know you are concerned about weigh in but don't give the scale all the power! It's just ONE of the instruments used to gauge progress. Remember how much healthier you are now with your daily exercise and wonderful eating. This alone is something to be proud of whether or not the scales moves in the right direction.
Kathy - hope you are okay - make sure to take care of yourself and check back in when you can!
So Angela - I guess I will remove my watch too before weigh - in- congrats on your loss (boy that's some big mother of a watch you got there! )
Lisa - congrats to you too - try to hold onto the idea that you will never see the 60's again!
Deboarh - dh bashing is quite allowed here - it does help me realize I am not alone and not crazy and that my expectations for understanding and support are not unreasonable. This keeps me going (froufs like to be right as much as possible )
Kierie - how are you doing today? Hope the jump back on the wagon did not hurt too much!
I was starving this morning - despite feeling crappy - indulged in a breakfast from mcdonald's (egg mcmuffin & REAL coffee - really need some caffeine today) - I know I definitely don't have any points left - but I am not going to stress too much over my eating as I have other things to worry about? Best case scenario is I stay the same - otherwise I may be up a lb but it's not like I don't know how that happened and certainly can't pretend I did nothing wrong. So that's okay - I will just accept this and move on - it's a part of life and the learning experience. I agree that what is most important right now is taking care of myself and to make sure dd is okay! I will do the best I can w/my eating plan without completely sabotaing myself.
Brought some leftover chicken stirfry for lunch (dh made it - looks pretty bland?) no rice or anything so I packed a raw potato to nuke in the office microwave if I feel the need for a side dish. Also packed some GORGEOUS fresh pineapple slices and ripe strawberries for desser and I'm really looking forward to that (did you ever think fresh fruit could be so exciting?)
My supervisor called in sick today which is almost a blessing - I did have to meet w/her for some decisions so that's a bummer - but I am a bit more relaxed now and feel I don't have to stress as much to get things done - can try to work at a more leisurely pace. Have also booked tomorrow off for the big shopping trip to the states with my gf....this should be fun and relaxing. She is a great friend that I can confide in - she knows me and dh and as an ex-nurse has lots of medical knowledge as well. Just went to the bank here and got $100 US woohoo!
