Hey Everyone
I just went to a friends for dinner and pretty much blew it Did so good until dessert and then port. Oh well, tomorrow is a new day!

Welcome Okeesego!!

Alberta, I'll bite, what the heck is a cardio wave?

Ok, off to bed to sleep off the wine and calories - sigh.

Apparently a little piece of cake didn't hurt! I went this morning and dropped 2.4lbs over the weekend...I'm very happy with that. 2 more pounds and I"ll be at 25lbs gone....Unbelievable!

Everyone is doing awesome!

Laura don't worry about it. We all have our bad days. Just get right back on the wagon

Thanks for the breakfast suggestions. I have tried the diet bread and sometimes I do have that with peanut butter and a piece of fruit. I also do yogurt and fruit. I never even thought about french toast so I'll have to try that one.

I am sooooo nervous about my weigh in tomorrow. I think because my first two weeks it came off so fast and last week it wasn't so good. I know I am following the diet and other then my drinking weekend I haven't cheated once. I am just hoping the last week wasn't as big because of my period. Guess I'll find out tomorrw

A cardiowave is like an elliptical machine only you go side to side rather than front to back. Kind of like rollerblading. OMG it's so hard. It kills me everytime!So good for the butt and thighs though!

Was down 1.4 for my weigh in today. Not bad. I totally feel like I'm in a funk though. I can't get it together. Everyday I have full intentions of staying on plan, with no cheating but I can't help it. Yesterday one of our regular customers came in with Timbits...I had about 6. EEK... Then we had a family dinner where my mother-in-law made lasagna with about 5 million pounds of cheese, with icecream for dessert. Tonight was my father-in-laws birthday celebration with cake and icecream. Wednesday is another family dinner with beefpie. I feel like there are so many things setting me up for failure! EEK! If it's not bad food being shoved in my face, its no food at all. I'm still having a hard time, getting all my food and water in. Gosh...I really need to get it together! HEEEELLLLLLPPPPP!

Alberta - I can relate. I really get to hate dinner engagements - they're nearly impossible to manage. I don't have any suggestions but wish you luck this week. You've done so well. Hopefully everyone's comments that you look so great will keep you on track.

[sunflower72]

Alberta that's great that you were down 1.4 lbs especially if you find you haven't been following the plan to a T. Hang in there. I too find dinner's out very tough. The worst for me is a lot of people don't know I'm on the plan so they don't know what I can and can't eat. How are the ladies at your centre? Are they good at giving you suggestions that may help you. I know my centre I told them I am worried about Halloween coming up and they suggested the 100 calorie chocolate bars and the snack they sell. Hang in there ((HUGS))

[Lauratigger]

Hey Better Life - OMG, I thought it was only me!! I totally have a problem in that department too and hate taking laxatives cause I don't want to rely on them. I'm sure it makes a difference in wi too. Sigh - as if we didn't have enough on our mind. If it helps I notice lemon in water sometimes helps. Good luck tomorrow - I'm sure you'll do great!

[better life]

No your not alone Laura...

I hate laxatives as well, as I don't want to become dependant on them...I eat healthier than I ever did 3 veggies/3 fruit a day.....2 starches which is usually whole wheat bread...how much more fibre can one have?? Not to mention all the water I drink.

I have about 12 hrs to DO THE DEED...LMAO

Never made it to the tub, so I will be waiting until TBL is over....lol...darn facebook....LOL

ANYONE GOT ANY SUGGESTIONS....MOVE THIS BUS.....ok couldn't resist....feels like one right about now....oh my it has been a LOOOONG day

[sunflower72]

Believe it or not I was down 2.8 lbs Which means I've hit my first 10 lbs I weigh in again on Thursday which I have to learn won't be as big as a number because of the timing. So I am VERY happy!

[better life]

Way To Go Sun!!!!!!!

[Dria]

Try adding warm lemon water to your nightly or morning routine.
Real lemons cut up and pour boiling water into it.
It helps naturally "Move the bus" May take a day or two to kick in for some people.

[better life]

Thanks Dria...will have to buy some lemon and try that from now on, cause the bus isn't a movin!!

[Lauratigger]

Still laughing at your last post Betterlife - hee hee. Thanks Dria- I'll try that too. With a touch of splenda it may even be a treat.

Congrats Sunflower!!
