    OOOO tattoos this is right up my alley!! I have 4, with plans for #5, 6 and 7....but no money!! :laugh:

    Nickytoo...I suppose that counts as sugar for the day, but I have never ever been able to drink coffee without sugar in it:noway: BLECH!!!!!!! so i compromised by putting in half of what i usually do. I could've skipped the coffee altogether, but yeah...WHO SKIPS DUNKIN DONUTS COFFEE?! :laugh:

    I'm sooo glad we can have fruit again today! I had sliced strawberries in 1% milk (accidentally picked that up instead of my usual skim milk lol!!) for breakfast. YUMMMMM:love:

    I was reading an old Shape mag the yesterday (I keep all of them for workouts and recipes lol) and I wanted to share some cool storage containers with you ladies!! They have an awesome ad for small portion chill containers for fruits, veggies, whatever....comes in packs of 4 for $10 on fit-fresh.com!! They have measurements on the sides and snap on ice packs to keep food cool :) They also have a similar container for salad with a folding fork and ice pack! containerstore.com has a nifty salad blaster bowl for $5...it has a reservoir for the dressing separately so your lettuce doesn't get soggy...and when you're ready to eat it, just press the top button and it "blasts" the salad with up to 2 oz of dressing!! I am so excited for payday...will be investing in some of these for school in August!! :bigsmile:

    I have 1 tattoo, but never thought of getting another...maybe I will though as a size 6 to commerate my journey. A red heel would be kinda cute but no clue where i'd put it.

    And yes the shoes are expensive but how much money I saved by not eating out and by doing what's right for me and the sweat and tears at the gym I deserve expensive shoes once I hit goal :laugh: :laugh:

    I can't wait to go shopping for real :heart: :heart: :love: :heart: :heart:


    Those are the most amazing pair of shoes. I'd kill for a pair!

    I hear ya KatieBug. It was hard to go without sugar. I know BuffJess said no sweets but I thought I'd take it a step further.

    Going to check out those containers when I get home from work. Thanks for sharing.

    Yes you do. We all do.

    My son graduated from high school last year and my reward for getting him there was a shopping spree at Holt Renfrew, Canadian version on Neiman Marcus.

    There is NOTHING and I mean NOTHING better than a pair of Made in Italy shoes. They are divine. They make you feel good, they fit incredibly and above all they make you look amazing. I LOVE LOVE LOVE Italian shoes. Even if they are pricey. You should note that even Designer shoes go on sale so you don't have to pay $1000 you can get them for half if not better in some cases. It's not like we need this years model anything as long as they are a reward and adorable is all that matters. I am considering Something Blue by Manolo Blahnik (sex in the city movie shoe). I've wanted it from the first second I saw it, with it's cluster of rhinestone and little silver ring at the base of the heel... sigh. Lovely! :love:

    here here! I agree buffjess, my weekends are always where I fail. But I have a renewed confidence this time around. I'm going for those shoes! I want to look awesome for Halloween!

    Let's do it!!! :wink: :wink: :wink:

    By the way, lunch was a lean cuisine, a quesadilla. I had my doubts, but it was so good! I got 4 waters down and 4 more to go!

    Go Red High Heels! Good luck this weekend ladies! I know we can all do it! :wink:

    Morning!
    I did well yesterday. Only thing I had considered 'sweet' (?) was a 4oz apple sauce, no sugar added. Today not so sure. I have only 2 H2Os down, drinking enough water is always changelling for me. 5 glasses a day is a good day for me! We'll see...
    I'm going to try hard this weekend too but it will be tough. Tomorrow is my daughters birthday and I want Caaaaaaake! :laugh:

    I SOOo want a new tattoo too! Last one I got was 6 years ago, I'm due for another.

    You can do it... drink that water! :happy: 5 is almost there and is really good too. I think you can add 3 more.
    As for Cake, I had some Wednesday, anything in moderation is good. Have a small piece and half a scoop of ice cream and count it in and you should be fine. Depriving is the worst thing for dieters. Moderation is key.

    It is tough. I have decided to not use that as an excuse anymore. It's too easy to allow it too much room which causes me to indulge. So I have flipped the switch on the TOM excuse and refuse to allow it to control me. 'I' am in control of 'it' instead. Still sometimes it's really really hard to keep it flipped. (Sharing in your pain at this very moment myself) Don't let it win!! We can do it!

    :laugh: Watch all our cycles start to align. :laugh:

    I went to lunch at Benihana with my coworkers. We sat there and watched the chef but probably a half pound of garlic butter on their food (which smelled amazing) while I had my one sushi roll (non-fried, no avocado) and miso soup and was completely untempted. Now I am craving chocolate chip cookies. Go figure.

    i wont recommend making a pickle cookie...but maybe you can make some cookie dough for a low cal recipe and throw it in your freezer, so when you want that cookie...or two. you can make two. and then there are no more to eat cause they are all unbaked and frozen!

    That is a GREAT idea!!! Why did I never think of that?! Plus, then you always get a fresh baked cookie!!

    I'm just worried I would start eating frozen balls of dough. Sometimes I like the dough more than the cookie.:blushing:
