[Sweater Girl]

Hey all,

Hope everything is good! I had a good run last ight and went to the pub afterwards with my running group. I was good, I had a chicken salad with Italian dressing and diet coke!

Anyhoo, I am still sore from weight training on Tuesday and it now looks like I have something going on Fri/Sat/Sun so I should have a good weekend!

Belle: Do what you think is best, variety is great even for dieting, so hey try it out! Don't fret about the 5lbs, it happens, the rest of the day is still there for you (I am now doing bite by bite rather than day by day).

Cheers!

Hi Sherry and Ali!

Ali - good girl not going crazy with chicken wings like I would have - I LOVE chicken wing nad they are deadly. I had to stop going to the pub after volleyball b/c of that! Congrats on your good run!

I am stressing about the 5lbs and I actually wake up worrying about my dress fitting next Thursday. What if it doesn't fit!!! GAH!!!! I hope I can drop a couple lbs before then...I mean, all my clothes fit right now, so hopefully I won't not be able to zip it up.

Sherry - congrats on your loss. I think Ali's non-conventional advise is good!! You are losing eating more points, you can keep it up for a bit if you want!

on the Core Plan - I think it has merits and drawbacks, but I am going to try it out just for fun, to see how it goes. I totally needed to cut back my sugar anyway. Shaking it up for me isn't a bad thing, as I need a good kick in the @ss anyway!

Hocky - different shifts are def hard. But if you can't change the shifts, you ahve to change SOMETHING. Maybe try making meals ahead and freezing them so you can pull them out and heat them up late night rather than going to micky d's. That worked for me for a while. OR even just buying frozen TV din's. Still better than deep fried.

Gotta go - insane morning and lunch meeting until 1:30.

Hey Ladies
Belle I'm afraid to get on the scale to see if I've gained so don't sweat your 5 it will come off
At the moment I'm snacking on a big bowl of salad. . .I like to eat it this way no dressing and lol no utensils it works with very veggie
Ali the chicken salad sounds nummy and (to use a legally blond word) snaps to you for not having wings/pubfood You are lifestyle master! (notice I didn't say diet)
Sherry do what works best for you hon
Hockey I agree with belle can you freeze stuff ahead of time or mabye even some easy portable snacks veggies LF string cheese Hardboiled eggs baked lays
My interviews I think went well one I don't really want and the other I'm not sure
but I did go to the green Market and get 2 HUGE zuchini for $1 I love farmers markets
