    I am definitely going to start stalking my local Walmart for the Cake Batter one. YUM!

    So worth it!

    I spotted the White Chocolate Cadbury Mini Eggs today *drools*.

    True haha.

    Today I didn't exercise for Lent, but I am still counting it since I pushed carts at work for around 10-15 minutes.

    I still haven't bought any processed snacks or had ice cream. It is getting harder now that the Easter candy is starting to appear, but I will stay strong & not buy any.

    I consider pushing carts a workout. My first job was as a grocery store courtesy clerk and I actually enjoyed pushing carts. That was the only time in my life when I was in shape. :)

    Thanks :) even maintenance would be good if I could.

    I know this feeling well. I hope you can get back on track soon.

    Were here for you @orangesmartie! I just got out of a bad binge cycle myself.

    @oberon21 you need to buy one of those Coldstone Creamery Eggs & take it to Nashville.

    You mean keep it in my house!???!!! If Nicci really wants one I will. I can't eat them anyway. They distinctly sound non-vegan to me....

    It is.annoying that my direct supervisor has been standing at the cubby next to mine gossiping for close to 30 minutes. Co-irkers indeed.

    Tee hee... Great example she is setting!

    oooh we haven't decided yet. I was thinking probably the Monday 2nd May I don't know what else @Oberon21 and @rungirl1973 have planned. i know we're line dancing one night, and Grand Ole Opry on the Saturday night

    Well we can't do Dollywood and Line Dancing the same night! We could try Line Dancing the Thursday or Sunday night, then Dollywood on Monday. I don't think we will want to do Dollywood the Sunday after the marathon. But we could....

    How are you?! I'm not reading back the thousands of posts haha

    I only needed to read back a few to see Nicci is having a bit of an issue so deleted my "everyone is fine!". I am good. Not exercising enough. But good. :)

    You've been through A LOT, Nicci! Try to do your best to take care of yourself. HUGS!

    And I am not coming to Nashville, because:

    Wal-Mart has had these the past few years, but haven't found them yet this year. I remember the Cake Batter Cookie Bash egg was really good.

    The eggs are more expensive around $5.00, but pretty big for the price you pay.

    Thank goodness there is no peanut butter heaven in there...

    One of you let me know when you pick a date for sure. Sevierville is less than 90 miles from me.

    You could totally meet us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • Posts: 13,235 Member

    Ummm....who wants to send me a cake batter one??? Or bring it to Nashville? :smiley:

    Although, at the moment I am doing really really badly. I can't stop eating. Anything and everything, all the time, mostly stuff that is bad for me. I'm on a real bad binge streak that i can't seem to curb. Coupled with a total lack of will to exercise. I don't even have to leave my house but i just cannot do it. I'm having a really bad week emotions wise, and its all i can do to get through work. i go home, eat (or stop on the way home and eat), go home and climb in to bed and cry. This emotions thing sucks.

    Anyway, who is coming to Nashville?

    I am so sorry. Emotions do suck. It's all part of grieving but it still sucks. XOXOXOX

    As the game is so slow lately, I will give it to you as either "stinky clothes" or "wardrobe malfuntion." Your choice. :D

    I know it was going gangbusters for a while, this week super quiet.

    So I am trying to stop procrastinating. I am so sick of feeling overwhelmed and behind. Today I got all my performance appraisals done, my performance agreements done, my candidate selection done, my tuition reimbursement application done, my grades submitted for my last class. I still have a ton to do but it's 7:17 and my office is freezing and I am tired. I am going to head home, stopping at Target for some groceries, then go home and fold and put away laundry. I may not exercise of make my steps, but by God, I am going to get stuff done!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    No, you couldn't do Dollywood on Sunday.. Dollywood is all walking all day. I don't run, but I know you couldn't do that.

    Yeah, I am gonna need one of those middle ones!

    Yes!

    @orangesmartie do you want @oberon21 to purchase one of these eggs for you?

    I think I need one....I'll trade you $$ for ££ on the exchange visit ;)

    It could be the carrot for crossing the finish line...

    Mrs s and i are planning in putting all our clothes in hand baggage and bringing empty suitcases to take stuff back, clothes, easter eggs, game of thrones game, tacky souvenirs (I have licence plates from every place I visited last time, and I'm going to put them in Charlie's room in the new house).

    After running the half marathon you'll deserve a treat!

    That sounds like a great plan on bringing a few empty suitcases so you can jam it full of treats/souvenirs. I'm sure @oberon21 can take you to a nearby Marshall's, T.J. Maxx, or Ross store so you can even buy some clothes there. I bet they have awesome thrift/consignment stores down there too.

    Maybe they even have some swap meets like Hawaii did where you can go to a stadium & look at all the vendors selling souvenirs.

    Today I need to go to the grocery store & will definitely not buy any ice cream, but I might pick up a few Easter treats & hide them until Easter.

    All I have left is one pack of shredded cheese, a few cans of beans (definitely don't want to eat beans everyday), a few prepackaged rice/casserole boxes, & protein powder/bars. I have chicken breast, chicken thighs, & that's pretty much it for meat.

    I mostly will pick up vegetable sides I can eat for lunches, maybe some yogurt/cottage cheese to eat for a morning snack, cheese slices, frozen fruit, & perhaps some tilapia/ground beef.

    Most of my work clothes right now are from these places.
    I have a lot of overpriced dresses I buy new from Macy's because they're cute. But, I do a LOT of shopping at TJ Maxx and Ross. And thrift shops.

    I could totally walk all day the day after a marathon, but I'm not sure about everybody else. I would lean toward line dancing Sunday and Dollywood Monday. The walking will be good for working out the DOMS.

    If it's not raining around lunchtime, I think I'll walk over to CVS and see if they have those eggs. I need that cake batter one for a reward, too!

    @Oberon21 and @orangesmartie - just a heads up that my husband's brother is coming for the weekend to run the Half Marathon, too. He's a sweet guy and has a not great home life (abusive wife), so it's a nice little break for him. Also, the boys can do their thing and I can hang with you guys for girl time... :)

    @orangesmartie I'm sorry there is an issue going on! xx

    My friend from Britian is sending me Thornton's chocolate, I cannot even begin to explain my excitement haha

    Up until last month I thought our boys were the primary ice cream eaters in the house. Seems that I am wrong.
    Since bluebell is back Hubby has been stock piling ice-cream in the worst kind of way. He will buy two to three half gallon tubs at a time. Since the first of February We have polished off 5 half gallons, 2 mostly rated half gallons. and we now have 3 new unopened half gallons in the freezer.
    And yes I have been eating some and logging it. I may have eaten one half gallon myself over the month. This I need to control.
    The thing is he has not gained weight. NOT FAIR!

    Where she'd pass through, is about 4 hours north of where I am. Also, April is Mr. Mo's birthday and I don't think he'd be cool with me ditching him for a road trip to Nashville. Plus, country music KILLS MY SOUL. Do you WANT me to die, POF? DO YOU?!!!

    Nashville isn't all country music... I've probably heard more live classic rock and heavy metal than country in the bars downtown, it's all in finding the music you like. It's Music City.
