    Good Morning all the "Looking Good For Christmas" gang ... It's yet again another dull day here in Niagara. I'm just not going to let anything else get me down. Life gets stressfull sometimes and there's nothing I can do about it. I'm officially admitting that I've been making excuses lately to slack off on my healthy lifestyle mission and I'm going to break that cycle starting right this second. Life gets stressful sometimes and I have to accept that and deal with it. So far today (which only really just started) I've been on track so now I just have to stay there. Thank you all for being such a great support system ... you really are the best inspiration.

    I know you can do it. Keep up the great work. :bigsmile:

    Hi there Sexy Christmas Friends ... just want to drop a quick note ... my computer is being wonky ... maybe a virus or something ... my techie friend will be checking it out for me but not 'til next week so not sure when I can get back on. I'm heading out of town for a few days so I'm hoping to have this fixed up after I get back. Honestly ... what ever is going on is making this computer sooooo slow. Please don't count me out if I'm not on for a while ... I'll be back as soon as I can.

    Hello my friends ... I just got back from a weekend away. Hubby and I went to our daughter's surprise 25th birthday party. Way too much food, way too much wine, not nearly enough exercise ... way way too much fun :laugh: Well I'm back now ... back to my normal routine.

    OMG!!!
    I have been soooooooooo bad this weekend. Mexican food, cheeseburger/fries, and fried chicken!!!
    I feel horrible!!! I am starting over tomorrow but I totally expect a gain on weigh in day Wednesday!! No body's fault but mine!!! Uggggggggggggggg why do I do this to myself????
    In a couple of weeks my husband will be going back out on the road. He will be gone during the week and home on weekends and I fully intend to use that time away to get my self in check!!!! I won't have to cook for him and we won't be tempted to go out to eat so it should be easier!!!

    Fingers crossed, tomorrow is the big day for the interview. It's wierd, I don't even feel nervous for some reason, I just KNOW this is mine!!! God is walking in there with me and I will be fine!!!

    I really hope your interview goes well today.

    Just checking in. I did not lose any weight last week. That is okay. I did not gain, so that is a good thing. Have a wonderful week everyone. :bigsmile:

    Interview went okay I guess. They won't start calling for round 2 for a couple of weeks. The job starts off part time and she didn't know what the pay would be but there are no benefits and it's in an old house, I would be the only one there all the time so I'm not sure I would be sad if I didn't get it. I just wish I would get more calls. I have been sending out resumes left and right but nothing!!!

    I got on the scale today and I have gained like 5 lbs in the past week alone!!
    Why is it so easy to gain but so hard to lose??

    I am starting to get discouraged again but I am trying really hard not to let it get to me!!!

    Don't give up memaw. You have been doing so awesome!!! An inspiration to all of us. Find whatever triggers you can that help you make the right choices when it comes to eating. For some people it is pictures on the fridge or listening to certain music. You should change up your triggers every once in a while as well since often times triggers lose their effectiveness over time. Come up with new and inspiring things to keep you motivated.

    *hug* we are all here for you and good luck with the job. I am sending positive thoughts your way and hope you get it.

    At least if you get it, it will be a job for now. You can always continue to look while you have this job. I really hope you get the job. :bigsmile:

    I am confused, it is98 degrees and you are drinking HOT coffee. That always gets me. LOL I never was a coffee drinker. I guess I am lucky in that respect.
    I hope you sleep better tonite. :bigsmile:
