Thursday..... :)

  • Hi Ladies...

    Sherri,
    I'm sorry to hear the boys are fighting so much Hunter and Nicholas are one year apart so they did the same thing... always taking each others things and such.

    I can't give you any solutions but just keep reinforcing over and over that hitting is not nice. I always tried to alternate the boys naps so I could spend time with each of them alone.... but then you don't get any alone time either

    I am sending you the download.

    Hi out there to all you lovely ladies! Come post and tell us how you are
  • Morning everyone....

    Sherri - Thank you for the support about trying to not eat anything past 8pm. It's been going pretty good...only cheated 2 nights this week(lastnight and 3 nights ago). It is hard at times because afternoons(around 2) and evenings(after 8pm) were my difficult times with snacking/eating and especially on unhealthy things...however now I don't have unhealthy things in my home so when I do cheat it's still with healthy foods.

    I go for my weigh-in at TOPS tomorrow morning and am looking forward to it. I can't wait as I missed last weeks weigh-in because my son had a doctor appt.

    Hope you all have a fabulous day.
  • Good luck at your weigh in! I know you'll do awesome!
  • Penny,

    Thanks for the advice. I keep trying to keep them away from each other.LOL The sitter had them all today all day and she said I couldn't get anything done with both of them.LOL I said now you know how I feel.LOL It will be fine. It is just overwhelming for me right now but it will pass. They will both be here forever so I have to get used to it right?
    Glad to hear you are doing great on plan and sticking with it. You are so worth it girl. Keep going. I will check my mail for the download. Thanks. Will get back to you or call you tomorrow.

    Jen,

    I am proud of you for not cheating that much and for getting all the junk food out of your house. That is great and a huge step. Keep up the great work. Have you tried having a higher fiber dinner to hold you over longer? Are you having a lot of white carb foods? If so that could cause you to crave foods as well. Take a look at what you are eating. At 8pm are you tired? Maybe you get hungry because you are really tired. I know I get hungry when I am tired. Try just going to bed. I know it is early but you will feel more rested and better the next day for getting more rest. Keep up your hard work. I am sure it will pay off on the scale for you.

    Susie,

    How did your workout go this week. Did you stick to your plan? I know you are trying to do the workouts for 8 weeks in a row. How is it going?

    As for me I am doing great and keeping on track. I really messed up today but I didn't let it ruin me and get over my points. I got some food for free today that was extra from the food I purchased called extra helpings. You pay 14.00 and you get a bunch of food then they have bread and desserts there also that you can get for free. It was the first time I have done it. It was so worth it. I got 3 pies and 2 of them I am going to bring to the Pot Luck dinner for megan's brownie troop on saturday night. So that was good timing. But I also got some choc. covered mini doughnuts. I had 3 of them because that was the serving size. So I stuck to just the 3. That was hard. I only had 4 pts so far for the day. Well I got home and figured the points for those 3 mini doughnuts and it was 8 pts. I almost died. Well those were my lunch.LOL It wasn't worth 8 pts for those doughnuts that is for sure. But I ate them so I wrote them down. I am only 1/2 pt away from my points today and I can't think what to have so I will leave it at that. I am doing great and the scale was down to 189 this morning. So I am very happy. I am really making sure that I stick to the points each day of what I should have. Tomorrow is my high point day. We are going to have spaghetti and meatballs tomorrow night. I will have my wheat pasta instead of the white. That will keep me fuller. We should be getting our tax money back tomorrow. I have to call and make sure it got deposited. I will be glad then I can pay bills. I sat down today for about 45 min going through all of our bills seeing what we owed everyone. Still not done with that.LOL
    Nothing else happening here. We are going tubing tomorrow. It is supposed to be cold like 26 degrees. Hopefully the sun will be out that will make it warmer. I look forward to going. It is a lot of fun.

    Have a great night everyone and I will check in again tomorrow.
