    Good afternoon,

    Things had been going really good today, I am on track with my water and I even logged everything I was going to eat today...until....my boss comes in and says that he will be ordering Chinese food for everyone. How can I turn down that? So now I need to rethink things!! DH sleep on the couch again last night...I am over it. I think I am going to have to watch what I eat throughout the day knowing that I will not get in any work out. I would workout in the evenings if I could, but between cooking dinner, helping Maddy with homework and getting in study time for myself, there is no time. I though watch a few things during the week. Maybe I could get some exercising done then. I think I might try that tonight! I will report in the morning.

    Talk to everyone later, Lauren

    You can turn down the Chinese food and I hope you do or at least just eat a very small portion. It's hard but you can do it. My workplace always has food around for something or other so I do know how difficult a choice it can be.

    Take care,

    Hello all!

    I completely agree with the "work always has food around" statement! Of course today there were pizza leftovers from yesterday and I'm very sorry to say that I ate some more. So much for the "tomorrow's another day"statement, huh? I really hope I got it out of my system so I can concentrate. I ordered Alison Sweeney's "Mommy Diet" from B&N.com and am waiting anxiously for it to arrive. Normally just reading about other people's motivations will keep ME motivated for a while anyway, so I'm hoping that will be the case. **In case you didn't know, Alison Sweeney is one of the hosts on The Biggest Loser (which I don't watch) and is also on Days of our Lives (which I do watch - haha when I do take lunch in the breakroom). I love her, she looks fabulous and has had 2 kids! :happy:

    So anyway, I'm off to Zumba tonight. I'm pretty excited about it, except... On Monday my friend noticed this girl/woman in the class (hard to miss her because she has reeeeeeally long legs and tiny/non-existant bright pink shorts on). Anyway, she started in the front, but moved to the back after a while, and my friend noticed her making fun of these 3 girls who were obviously new to the class. I had never seen them there, so I'm assuming maybe their frist time even? I was just wondering who that lady thinks she is that she can make fun of people like that?! It really bothered me, because if other people noticed it, I'm sure the girls did too, and who knows now if they will come back? I just wish in cases like that I could find my voice and tell her to grow up or something like that. :angry: Grrr...

    Well anyway, hopefully tonight goes better and I hope those girls come back anyway. It's really fun! (Once you get the hang of it anyway...) :smile:

    good morning,

    julia...i love allison sweeny she is looking really good. i remember when she started on days (years ago) how tabloids said how big she was. she wasn't that big then. but, for a soap star she was. what a shame society has bad images of "big" people. we all are not size 0. and pink short girl was new once herself. but, than she probably practiced the moves before she started taking the class. to make her look good.
    lula....put down the baked goods. and grab some coffee and whole wheat toast and find a corner. just to take a breather. inhale/ exhale....inhale/exhale....nice and slow.
    Chinese i LOVE Chinese my favorite.

    nothing new here. hope to start some spring cleaning today. sun is shinning. i realized why i haven't yet gotten my new home in order after being here for 4 months. because of son. his room is our spare room. so now everything is in the den. i am going to start with one room and get it to the way i want. please it will keep me from eating. i don't need to hold onto all this crap anymore.

    back later

    Monday I came down with the stomach flu so I haven't been able to eat all week and I feel like crud. =/ I don't know my accurate weight now and a 4 day involuntary no food or liquid diet is no bueno. I had to get an IV yesterday because I was so dehydrated. Today is better than the last 3 days but still not feeling great. Should be good by the start of the next challenge.

    Jennifer..that is horrible, I hope you feel better soon
    Cathy...thanks for the encouragement, I just hope it ends soon

    Hope everyone has a wonderful day!

    i made hamburger patties. than tried making fries out of butternut squash. hungry girl says they taste just like sweet potatoes. boy, do they ever. much better for you. also made yellow squash and zucchini and onions all roasted in the oven. DH and i were eating all the veggies and not touching much of the burger at all. in fact we left none for son. oh well, he won't miss it. i will buy butternut squash from now on. i need to get some seeds and grow it this year.

    Okay, so I have a stressful week ahead. My mother is getting next Friday in Florida. She and her fiancee came to visit. I like him, a lot. It's her that is the problem. I feel like I should warn him, but they are in their 60s and old enough to make their own decisions. Anyway, I have been EATING like crazy. Oh yeah, did I mention that I also have severe PMS and will be traveling on a plane while that lovely TOM is here. Hoping stress will bring it early. Anyway, why am I posting again? Oh yeah, to be held accountable. I am resolving for today to log EVERYTHING I put into my mouth. Something else I am doing for this week until the wedding is cutting out all wheat products. Seems a little extreme I know, but I have been severely overdoing it on cakes, cookies, croissants, breads,etc. I am an all or nothing personality and know that I can not have "just a little bite". So to help control what I put into my mouth, and hopefully up my vegetable/fruit intake (which has been horrible to non-existent lately), I am just cutting them out until the wedding.

    You guys are awesome and so supportive and encouraging and I love reading your posts and seeing your successes and slip ups and how well you deal with stress. You are my lifeline to sanity more times than you know.
