Finally Friday

  • Anyhoo, our Union and Employer are finally meeting so hopefully they can get a nice settlement which will make us all happy and not result in us losing tons of pay. I am sick today but am in the office since I agreed to cover phones... Oh well.

    Aimee: I hate it when I can't use the third paycheque of a 3 paycheque month for anything... I spent way too much last Christmas, at least I have a PT job for this year. I hope the payoff comes though for his job pay... I hope we don't go on any more pickets.

    Anyhoo, it's Canadian Thanksgiving and the end of the BBC tomorrow. Didn't quite make my weight goal, BUT I have improved so much, dropped a few sizes got back into exercising and STOPPED binge eating!!! I had a really good challenge and it helped me oodles!! I hope I can do just as well on the next challenge

    Cheers!

  • Hi Ali
    I was writing an article this am thats why i didn't pop by sooner. I didn't quite make my weight goal either but I want to solidify my good habits so I don't blow them in the holiday season

    the dreaded American Thanksgiving aka the Turkey Shuffle (we go to both parents houses)
    Christmas
    Its like 3 months of oh just have a bite
    NO!

    I'm glad your strike is over hon that must be such a relief! but I'm sorry you're not feelign well I have to get back to writing I will bbiab
  • I promised I would come back in a better mood! And I am!! Mostly because we decided I can use my GST money on my jacket.. yay for me!!

    Ali - I'm sorry you aren't feeling that great.. it's that dreaded time of year where everyone is getting sick. I hope you feel better soon

    Christmas IS just around the corner.. it's pretty freaky! I'm not ready.. but I will be!

    On a side note.. I am disappointed with myseld.. because I only lost 2 pounds this past week! I worked my tooshie off! But 2 is better than nothing, right?

    Take care gals
  • Aimee: 2lbs is fabulous!!! It's 2 sticks of butter!! I got hemy GST check too... it's money I am usually not expecting so it makes me happy

    Kierie: We have thanksgiving this weekend, but it won't be a giant food fest thanks to my parents watching what they're eating so it's a good thing. I just have to be good for brunch on Monday.

    Cheers!

    Ali
  • Brunch is so evil! speakign of food I need lunch! I always forget to eat when I work then I'm ravenous!
    OH! I made DH muffins last night to take to work
    and learned 2 things
    1 these tiny arse muffins had to be about 4 pts. . .in other words they're not touching these lips
    and 2 lol Oxo clips don't like being in a hot oven LOL
    Also I like the comparing Adipous flesh to butter!
    mind you my mom calls me her hunk of butter but thats OK!
    Aimmee Whats the jacket like
    OH! I was looking at some canadian plus sized store I think its called addition-elle I WANNA GO THERE
    such cute stuff!
    I'm fighting my shopping jonze really badly
  • Kierie - guess what?? I work for that same company.. and I get 50% off the MXM brand! I think MXM has a web site.. dunno where though.. just type it into google, and you can look at some of the things. The jacket I want is from MXM, it's black bomber style, with a thick black band along the bottom and on the wrists, and it's got a fir trimmed hood, and you can unzip the hood and get "wings". It's that style all those stupid skinny girls are wearing.. kinda teeny bopper, but it's SO cute, I think that I need it! But I will ask the bf later (he's going to come to my work so I can show it to him), we shall see though

    Ali - 2 pounds IS alright.. I just need to get back on track, I've been "off" for the past 2 days. Like yesterday? I had pizza for breakfast, lasagna for lunch, and this pasta/meat thing for dinner.. can you see what my cravings are around the same time every month?
  • Kierie: I used to live at Additionelle and buy most of my clothes there. They have great stuff... Even a naughty undies section!! All the staff at the local one knew me by name:P

    Aimee: we all have days like that, they suck... my eating has been allright, I've been op, went out for dinner last night but actually ate well. I crave chocolate around my TOM like crazy.

    Cheers!

    Ok I learned something today WW wise
