Good morning, hope all is well with everyone.
Nita-one day of pigging out isn't going to mess up your whole week, just brush it off, and get back to what you were doing.
Coco-great job on the loss.
Sherri- you go girl. Keeping busy keeps us away from the food.
Everyone that hasn't been here in a while,or just been busy, hope you all are doing fine. bev, wanda, wildrose, ciecie, christie, beth, Eleni, and i know their are more, and i'm forgetting. Hang in there, keep posting, Please. You help us too.
As for me. Loving the new job.
I haven't actually started with the guy that is surpose to train me, cuz he's been really busy, but everyone else (for the most part) has been very helpfull. One guy won't let me work with him, says he has too much work, but he is like that with everyone. We are really busy right now. I actually put in a 12 hour day yesterday, and cancelled my allergy appointment. I can't remember the last time i put in a 12 hour day. I'm placing graphics in documents, checking jobs for margins, embedded fonts, just having a good time. I'm keeping to myself, and loving it too. We are laughing a little and having some fun. We did a lot of work yesterday. I can say i surely did. but the next department ate up the work really fast. I made one mistake, and of course bell got the job. But no biggy. I fixed the problem. But just burns me that she had to be the one.

I just saw in the news where a 13 year old boy threw boiling water on his friends back and video taped it. Inspired by the movie "jackass". The boy that had the water thrown on him suffered first and second degree burns. Come on kids. You gotta know that's gonna hurt.

I'm not not eating as much as i was and it seems to be helping the gerd. I'm trying to get rid of the coffee, and the caffinated pop, or pop in general, i just don't know what to sub it for besides water. I thought about trying a non cola type of pop to see if that helps.
Well I hope we all can get back on track if we are off, and I hope and pray that we all suceed in this battle. Remember stay away from temptation, and when we are tempted it's because we are strong.

Hi Everyone,

Wendy...It sounds like your new job is an answer to prayer for you. I'm glad that you are happy in it. And don't let Bell upset you. You are doing great.

Wanda, congrats on the loss this week. They say those last few pounds to goal are the hardest to lose and you did good this month by losing half of them. Keep up the good work and you will be a KOPS by the end of June.

Coco...Congrats on your loss this week. Hope everything is going well for you today.

Sherri...You have been a busy lady, lately, with the job, painting Megan's room and planning a camping trip. We used to go camping with our boys when they were growing up and it was a lot of fun. Sometimes, I think I would like to go again. But I don't know anyone that camps anymore to go with. It probably wouldn't be as much fun with just Jim and I. I would like to go to some of the national parks out west, but I think it would be easier to stay at the lodges. My hubby can't hike and do the things he used to do. (I got off the subject) Sounds like you are really enjoying your job and keeping busy is a good way to keep our mind off eating.

Eleni....Good luck at weigh in tonight. You have been doing so well. Hope you have another loss tonight.

I'm back OP today. I don't know what happened yesterday, I wanted to eat all the wrong things. My neighbor had brought over some chocolate cake and I had ice cream in the freezer. That ice cream was 200 calories for 1/2 cup. It's good ice cream, but not worth that many calories. Our challenge this week for our "Survivor contest" was to try a new low calorie recipe. I tried making those meringue "cookies". I found a recipe with S.F. jello powder to be added to the egg white and made that. I made 34 for a calorie count of about 25 per meringue. Meringue is not one of my favorites, but the jello does help. I'll take the recipe in to the meeting tomorrow.

Hope you all have a good day.

Nita
