Really, I'm about 15 minutes from where I'm interviewing, and need 5 minutes to change my pants/shoes, so even getting there 15 minutes early, I don't have to leave for half an hour.
BUT THE PANIC!
I am sure it is over by now, but I hope it went great!0 -

And now, I need to make these:

Sounds fun:). How hot is it in England during the summer?
Hah not very at the moment! It depends. It can vary but if it gets above about 23-25 celcius we view it as a heat wave and start panicking. It's not gotten above about 16 celcius where I live though, and that's below average even for us.
It's a glorious heatwave in the south. 22 today
Your high temp is lower than our low temp today. Looks like we are only get up to 96F today. It's been 100F or higher all week...could be worse. That's what @Susieq_1994 tells me!0 -

You had chocolate leftover from Easter? How?!AngryViking1970 wrote: »So, for dinner last night I had Cheese Nips and a handful of chocolate eggs leftover from Easter. And beer. Yay!
Seriously, tell me how.
I was as shocked as you guys. For Easter, my BIL gave my son a cardboard egg "thing" with candy in it and it's been sitting on his dresser since then. I assumed it was empty, because candy + my kid, or filled with Legos or something. But lo, it was not! I need to clean up in there more often.
I still have Easter candy left. As a matter of fact, I haven't touched my dark chocolate bunny yet. I know it's there, I just don't use calories on candy very often. I'd rather use them on fries or bacon cheeseburgers.

I am having a "I hate diabetes' day.....not that I ever love it, but today it is really upsetting me.
This morning I slept in, it was the first day I did not have to get up and make lunch for my son. I came online for a bit and then noticed it was getting late and I had to get to my PT appt. So, I just had some toast for breakfast, LIKE A NORMAL PERSON MIGHT. I got into the shower,, and was so dizzy I nearly fell over. I felt sick for a long while. When I got to the office, I check my blood sugar and it is literally three times what it should be.
Why? Not because I did not take my shot or because I ate too much sugar....but because I did not have enough protein to slow the speed of the carbs in the rye toast (which has a lower GI level, which is why I eat it instead of my beloved "Italian" bread).
I have been sick all day because of that one mistake. It is after 6pm and I have not even been able to eat anything yet and I never made it to the gym. Even though my blood sugar is normal now, the rush high and crash low has made me tired and sick. I have a headache and just want to go to bed....
But, I must go put in the laundry now, and clean the kitchen, and deliver packages for our meeting next week.....UGH
That sounds horrible. Sorry I don't even know what else I can say. I just feel bad that you have to go through stuff like that...
Thanks, I am feeling much better today......90% of the time I am good, and I have had it so long it is just a part of life, like any other problem people have....but one in a while it makes me cranky
Can't blame you. You have a very severe case. Always having to pay that close attention to everything is exhausting in itself. Hoping one day things improve for you!0 -
Thanks! I am almost down 50, even though MFP says like 38 cuz I didn't record the last gain over winter. Roomy clothes are awesome! (And by roomy, I mean properly fit as opposed to squeezing into while simultaneously cutting off circulation)
Woohoo! That's awesome! Do you ride to work all summer?0 -

I skipped ahead when I saw page 1000! Cool.
Confession: I am getting kind of mad because I've told a few coworkers that I've lost weight but they don't seem to care. I think it is because I look pretty much the same. I've lost about 35 lbs this year. It would be nice to hear a "good job" or something. They just don't say anything. I was telling them because my doctor said that probably is helping my knee feel better more than anything else is.
The company picnic is today. I'm not sure if I'm going or not...
I won't say good job, I'll say OUTSTANDING JOB!!! 35 lbs. if absolutely a huge accomplishment and something to be darn proud of. We're ALL proud of you even if your sucky coworkers aren't.
Haha thanks! Like I said, I look a little different but pretty much the same. I did go down one pant size. I just lose weight all over instead of just one place. I know once I lose more and get to the end of the year, people will notice more. I'm hoping on 50 more by December.
I really appreciate it though. This makes about 58 lbs lost total. I lost the rest a couple years ago.
58lbs is a significant lose, if they do not notice or care about that, screw them! Be proud!0 -

Today's lunch theme is cookies. Cookies and Cream protein shake (because I didn't drink it for breakfast) and my 3 Chips Ahoy chocolate chip cookies. I do not regret this lunch decision. At least not yet.

Doesn't matter what it is, coffee, water, iced tea, beer..... That was part of the reason I started losing weight fairly quickly when I stopped ordering calorie laden drinks when we went out, it was not uncommon for me to have 4+ of whatever drink in the hour or so we'd be at a restaurant. Now I usually stick with coffee or unsweetened iced tea.
Me too. When I was heavy, it would be beer, diet soda, Long Islands, coffee, Beam & diet...4 or 5 at a sitting.
Now I order the same thing at every restaurant - water with lime. No problem drinking 4 or 5 of those!
Were you able to walk out of the restaurant after?!? I love me a good Long Island, but after 2, I'm toast.
I'm 3+ years sober now, so I can joke about it...but in my prime, my booze tolerance was pretty ridiculous!
Oh, well done! 3-ish years clean and sober was about the time I started to feel like my brain was really kicking back into gear, if that makes sense. I can't quite believe it, but I will be reaching 29 years without alcohol or drugs this July. Good stuff
WOW way to go that is AWESOME!!0 -

I slept through page 1000 lol
I work late shift tonight, thank God it is only twice a month, I hate it....actually this round I do not have another one for FOUR weeks! But only cuz I booked the next one off cuz my sister and her family is coming down!
So I am gonna have some brunch now and pack dinner and then have a shower, so have to rest of a great day, my friends, and I will catch up over the weekend!
This week is rather insane and I am working nearly double my normal hours due to being short staffed, hopefully that corrects soon. So, I will still pop on and read but I might get really behind this week!
Here is a confession: My daughter has been working day shifts for two week, and next week also, so she is here every night with me. My son works nights as he was in school up until Thursday, but I think that will continue. Last summer when they both started working, I had a hard time being here alone at night, it was so weird, I could not relax and it took me nearly a month to get used to. Now, with my daughter home at night for weeks on end, I feel like I want alone time, lol, weird, I know.
SO, on Tuesday night she is going to Toronto for two days to visit a friend that she went to school with....and chances are my son is gonna work most nights.....so, I have already planned that the night I am home alone, I am gonna go buy a salad and a chicken bacon alfredo pizza (new from domino's, dying to try), and a COUPLE of sinful desserts....and I am gonna plant myself on the sofa and watch a movie! I am SO excited, lol, no cooking, no dishes or cleaning, no kid here at all, and great food....that will also be my day off logging next week....
Does it count as a confession if I have not done it yet??0 -

I have my 6 months anniversary next week, I hope I can make it as long as you!
Outstanding!
Word of warning: Everyone's different, but when I was still trying to quit, I hit 6 months twice...and I was hammered within a week. Both times!
Thanks! And duly noted This is not my first attempt unfortunately but it's the longest and I think this time it'll actually stick- I definitely hit my rock bottom 6 months ago

I have taken my tablets today and yesterday.
@MoHousdon I love the idea that this is a village. I'm imagining us all in little English country cottages, nattering over the garden fence and on the village green
Good for you!
I would love that! As long as I can eat cookies and have tea. I would make an EXCELLENT English person/woman. Plus, I do a pretty good English accent.
I may have been doing one in my head just then.
Edit: That's hilarious, it censored Dick Van D y k e!!
um, I'm not sure. I don't say governor, or tally ho ole chap (this reminds me of a friends episode where Ross is teaching a class and starts speaking with a TERRIBLE British accent).
It's more like Kate Winslet or Kate Beckensale. So what would that be?
Fun fact: Kate W's from Reading, and had her (first) wedding reception in the hall of the school where my friend's daughters went. They apparently served bangers and mash.
I live in Reading!!!!!!
Omg!!! I'm in Slough!! If you ever fancy meeting for a long walk or run or something, give me shout*
I hope that doesn't sound stalkery, I'd just love to have an mfp person to work out with
Jealous!!! Isn't Slough the name of the town that The Office was filmed in over there?
funny coincidence:
one of my ex's at one point worked in Slough (home of the british office), while at the same time i was working in Scranton (home of the us office).
i was extremely amused by this...

Being home alone in the evening is glorious! I cherish my few and far between solitude evenings.

Bahaha! Just had to look for myself!
And now, I need to make these:
Love these!
I just had a second (third?) lunch. 280 calories left for dinner. It should work though. Hopefully. Now I'm really full.
I confess I always want to smack my husband when he gets home not hungry at dinner time because he had 'a late lunch'. I always pretty much have a lunch and a snack, and I'm always hungry at dinner (well except when I end up having dinner at 4pm because I'm starving). I don't know how he does it. Of course he always ends up having 600 calories or something of snacks after dinner too...
I confess that I really enjoyed my hour of quiet reading. And I'm sad it's over.
Now to herd my kids to go to the gym...0 -

I know I'm going to get moaned at soon for not helping, because I always do, but I feel a bit like if he wants to do over elaborate things because he's had an early finish why do I have to get roped in when I've been at work all day. If it was down to me I'd have just bought stuff ready made and left the washing til Sunday!
I would've done the exact same thing as you! And I have to comment even though you already know but I can picture you in your accent saying this! It's just always so fun reading because even though we speak the same language and I know exactly what you mean if I wrote this it would've been worded totally different!
