    I saw this and thought of this thread

    This is great! We all need to print that out and hang that someplace strategic!

    @lilaclovebird remember our little discussion yesterday?

    Guess who went out and had 10 beers, then had a couple more drinks when they got home? At least I remembered to eat before I went to bed - eggos and cheese.

    Not feeling too bad today - a little dry. I'm down 1.8 lbs from yesterday, which I'm not recording.

    Glad you aren't feeling too bad... I don't think I would have be up yet after 10 beers! But since I don't drink beer I am not sure how that equates to the effect wine has on me!

    Oh gosh - forgot to say @Tubbs216 - You must be so proud of your oldest for going through with such a grown up interview! I hope he gets the job.

    Great news that your daughter's tests came back normal! Excellent!

    I must admit that the name "clotted cream" makes me gag. I have this horrible aversion to milk specifically because it gets all clumpy and sooooo groooosssss when it starts to spoil. So "clotted cream" translates into "rotten nasty milk" for me.

    The worst part is that I've never actually tried clotted cream, as it's not a thing here in the US. I bet I'd LOVE it if I tried it elsewhere AND if they didn't tell me that's what I was eating. Just call it... ummm... buttery pudding... or sweetened cream.... or... well, anything but "clotted". Hee hee

    I wish I could send you all some clotted cream

    I have never had a desire for clotted cream. ..sounded disgusting. When I am in London next year I now vow to try it.
    Do it in style!

    Mrs Smartie's company does the water testing and treatment and ductwork there. We're not eating there ;)

    ok off the list. It sure looked pretty though!

    Oh yes you will! If I can persuade you down to Devon for s couple of days, I will take you for the best cream tea ever at ny favourite café on the cliffs.

    I WANT to go to Devon! I want to meet Charlie and yet to be named baby girl and go to the zoo and check it all out! I have to get a Scotland/England guidebook and start reading up.

    Hopefully one breakfast is enough!

    I find that I'm not hungry while drinking, but the next day I want all the things!

    I went out of town to an archery tournament once, went out for bacon and eggs with the guys I was staying with, came back to the hotel and went out for French toast with another group.

    I tend to want to eat like mad WHILE I'm drinking. Bacon, eggs, cheese(loads of cheese), burgers, fries, cheese sticks, sausage, pancakes, waffles, biscuits and gravy, hashbrowns, potato wedges, boneless buffalo wings(usually too inebriated to eat traditional), fried pickles, macaroni and cheese, and chicken alfredo.

    These are things I have craved/eaten like a starving person while drinking.

    This is more me. When I drink too much restraint disappears. It usually means a trip there burger King for a big fish meal. And ice cream. Often after having had dinner. This is why I try not to drunk much anymore.

    This post is funny. I sound drunk. I was trying to graze my horse and post.

    Trip TO Burger King.
    Try not to DRINK much anymore. ;)

    Haha! When I read this last night, I was wondering... Thanks for clearing it up! :)

    Yeah, I was laughing when I read it as I am talking about trying not to drink too much, then sound like I am wasted! It was 5:30 in the afternoon... I hope I wouldn't be drunk at that point!

    I was drunk at 5:30 yesterday.

    I'm actually a little proud of myself because I logged it all honestly instead of quick adding the calories so nobody could see what I had.

    That makes for one long day! I try not to drink during the day at all as I get incredibly cranky and just want to sleep. The only exception is when I go to lunch with my sister when she visits or special occasions like Easter brunch, but even then I get cranky and just want to sleep.

    Its really funny.... I never realized how 'abrupt' my writing is when I am on the phone in this thread. Or maybe its because its been a long day, but I popped back in after getting home from all the stuff I did today, and wrote most of the above at Panera where I stopped for dinner. I may need to start adding more smiley faces or something. I don't sound very friendly! Ooops... Even my sarcasm seems flat. Or maybe I really am just tired! Ok, off to the bat cave, and now that I am on my computer, maybe I can be more eloquent!

    One of things I like about you is that you don't "overtake". Just say it and move on. I'm okay with you and football not mixing because you and horses do. :#

    ETA That's "over talk". I'm typing on a Kindle and it auto corrected me.

    My SO left for work today and will be gone for the next 14 days. This has been the routine for as long as I've known him but I never get used to it. *sigh*

    Fortunately he took me out for lunch today and I had a nice wholesome veggie omelette, because I have been rather hopeless at feeding myself supper, which has consisted of:

    133 grams of cottage cheese (off to a great start)
    a kiwi (going along well)
    about a tablespoon of leftover wild blueberries (still okay)
    about a quarter of a tube of leftover cheddar Pringles (going downhill rapidly)
    half a toffee KitKat bar (aargghhhhhh!)

    I might have to officially call this Eat Like a Kid Day. Actually, until I got to the KitKat, it was all leftovers... there's some merit in using those up, right?

    Think I'll poach myself a couple of eggs so my protein isn't abysmally low, and maybe feel like a grown-up again.

    What does your SO do that he leaves for 2 weeks?

    He works in an underground gold mine... 14 straight 12-hour shifts. Two weeks in and two weeks out. And he does steady days or nights on each rotation, currently on days.

    Wow. Is that as dangerous as coal? And I can't imagine doing 2 weeks on/2 weeks off, why do they do it that way?

    You didn't ask me, but it isn't the coal that makes mining dangerous. It's blasting a big hole in the ground and crawling in after whatever you want out of it. God bless him. And the salt miners....though those aren't usually very deep under ground.

    Confession: My new profile pic was taken as SOON as I woke up tonight and it is my 'I totally do NOT want to workout today' face.

    Probably one of my most 'authentic' photos.
    There is also one of me from Christmas when I was 17, when I opened a gift, and it was my first rifle. The sheer joy on my goofy little face is so real. I think it looks horrible but it was my ex-husbands favorite photo of me.


    Ooh, ah, oh, what kind of rifle? Mine was a Remington .22LR. Great little target rifle and good for keeping varmints out of the garden. (Yes, my grandmother cooked the varmints, she very clearly remembered the depression and everything we hunt, we eat.)

    Don't worry Kelly you know we love you!! I didn't either as I missed out on the exchanging of addresses and such when I was on vacay! Maybe yours just hasn't arrived yet? We'll get in on it next time! <3

    So, an awesome surprise arrived in the mail today from @FroggyBug today. I'm feeling so much love. just want to go on record and say that even though I can't post all the time I'm always reading and rooting for you guys and sending out good vibes and wishing all the best things for everyone here. *grouphug*

    +1 to the bolded.

    You were NOT alone in the @FroggyBug love today! Made my lack of sleep for my shift tonight totally doable and I'm kinda looking forward to shopping with my dad tomorrow morning! It's amazing how something that seems so small could totally make someone's day. Thank you @FroggyBug!

    My dad has actually joined MFP and has logged 50 days straight today and has lost 11 pounds so far!
    He's kinda peeved that he hasn't lost some in a little while, but I told him to keep at it and he might get a whoosh. I'm also working on getting him to use the food scale a bit more. Although he's pretty good at eyeballing, I want him to get in the habit of being as accurate as possible. He only has 80 more pounds until his goal.

    He mentioned one day, in a kind of melancholy tone, that he's never eaten at a Red Lobster and I told him when he hit 250, I would take him. Totally my treat and he could order anything that he wants (I'm already saving for this as of two weeks ago). I'm already planning on us ordering multiple entrees each and him trying a little of everything.

    My mother has downloaded the app on her phone but hasn't actually used it yet. She says that entering calories is 'too hard' I told her she has the time and it really is almost nothing once you get in the habit. She comes back on Friday the 28th so hopefully she can jump on the wagon too.

    I am 26 years old, and my mother and father are 56 and 63, respectively. My mother will turn 57 this December!
    aww, congratulations to your dad! It's very sweet of you to offer him a trip Red Lobster as a reward for hitting a weight milestone. I tried telling my mom about mfp after she was recently diagnosed as prediabetic and obese but nothing came of it.

    I promise I sent everyone on the list a letter (even out of country addresses). I really hope they all make it. I know mail gets lost sometimes (which sucks because my dad is a mailman so I hate complaining haha).

    Glad you guys that got them already liked the notes. :) that made my day reading this too.
