Over 200 New Year New Me Part 24

BTW, Did MOMMA come back from her camping trip? Or is she missing in action?

colgrl informed us that Momma had some family issues that she is dealing with and is not going to be on for awhile. Colgrl said she would keep us updated since she can communicate with her another way.

Marketing brought out all this candy yesterday. Stupid candy! The Now 'n Laters are stareing at me!

Try moving them out of your eye sight if possible. They always like to put out sweets at the wrong times! Well at least for us. You can fight it. But it is kind of funny to think of Now 'n Laters having eyes!!! :laugh::laugh:

Jess: Luckily I only have hard candies staring me in the face. I'm addicted to the butterscotch discs, but I promise I'm logging each one I eat! The only plus side is that they last longer than a chunk of chocolate.

Pos_Me: Thanks for the warm welcome. I didn't really go anywhere, just was busy at work and in a funk. I'm getting back on track now, though.

Oops, got a project...be back later.

tstout - sorry about everything spiraling out of control...it will get better

Jess - i guess good thing about me working from home nobody can put the candy in front of me (of couse unless i get it)

I am feeling good , worked out at lunch , did another "heart rate" mode on the arc trainer and over 400 calories again in 45 minutes, more cals per min than last time and stayed at a lower resistance...i felt very accomplished and the gym scale (with my tennis shoes on) was under 270...that really really really felt great

That is sooo great! I am so proud of you!!

HI girls,

Its just been "one of those days". It all started out dandy, I weighed in this morning at 199 (hello again onderville), then my son slept in til almost 9am....which made me late for work but on the plus side I got to sleep in. I took him to daycare and they told me that he wasnt allowed to stay there because he had thrown up yesterday, and they have a 24 hr policy. At this point I was already late for work by 45mins and still had to take my step-son to his moms **sigh** I took step-son home and called my father (I work for my dad) and told him I was going to have to bring Bryaden into work with me. He knows he is a handful so he told me to go somewhere for about an hour so that he could get to the office to help me. So I went to Babies R Us to get some "toys" to entertain him while he was in the office and ended up spending almost $200. Mind you my fiance was laid off for 5 weeks (hes working again now) and we really dont have that money to be throwing away...duh me! So I get to work and my dad is still not there and my dear lil one is running rampant while I try to control the emails and phone lines. Not to mention it was 1,000 degrees outside and the AC couldnt keep the office cold enough so I was sweating my *kitten* off. I was oh so looking forward to nap time so I could get some actual work done, but my son decided that he didnt need a nap today. I finally left work at 330pm and sure enough he passed out on the ride home. Now I am sitting here and feel better to have caught up with the posts...but I dont have time to do personals...got spin class in about 30 mins. Oh...I KNOW smoking is bad and all but I smoked my last cig last night and I planned on picking a pack up after I dropped the kids off at daycare and home but since that didnt happen I had no cigs until about 30 mins ago. OMG I was going f-ing insane...I really thought I was going to shoot myself...withdrawl is NOT pretty :embarassed: :smokin:

On the plus side...I am still going to spin class tonight, and I stuck to the meals I had planned...actually I missed one of my snacks thanks to my lovely son who didnt give me a moment of peace...so I get a nice snack after dinner.

Ok better go get drressed...missed stalking you all today!

Hugs,

Cris

Hi all! Just checking in today...I'm working on getting my water in, trying to build up to 8 glasses a day. Today's goal is 6 glasses. I'm doing well on my calorie count and after dinner tonight will be under by 38 calories. I was able to get in a little walking on the treadmill today after work. Feeling really good, not hungry which is so nice:) I really hope this week I lose something when I weigh in on Monday. For the last two weeks I have stayed the same so I am looking forward to seeing the scale move. Way to go everyone with all of your hard work! I love reading all of your posts and am so encouraged by you all:)

It's been so long since I've done a check in!

Calories: 1711 (I ate too much but I'm still under with exercise calories)
Water: Oh yes!
Sodium: I'm not going to go there
Exercise: Spin class...hopefully clean the bathroom later
Calories Burned: 530
Proud: Definitely not proud how much I stuffed my face. But I pushed myself on the resistance on the bike.
