@HLaR79 I hope your daughter is alright!!
@Italian_Buju we didn't get as much snow as you, but we got about 18 inches. Our city shut down as well. However working at a hospital does not benefit when the weather is bad. They are always open lol. Thankfully I was able to go home early and stay indoors and got home safely even in the white out conditions.
@bmeadows380 I too hate getting up before 7. I'll also never get used to it. I work 8-430. And I would love to work 730-4. Only cuz traffic is much better at those hours. However I do enjoy the extra half hour of sleep in the am it gives me lol.
Sorry I have been mia. Stressful couple weeks. I'm not losing any weight. But at least I am maintaining and not gaining. Trying to be good. However hubby is a bad influence. He is one of those people whom seems to be able to eat anything they want and don't gain any weight. Lol
Still getting to the gym tho thankfully. My drs visit went well yesterday. It was a physical. He is happy to hear I joined the gym and the inches that I lost and told me not to be discouraged with the scale not moving much. I'm hoping by the time I see him again in September I will be 30-50 lbs lighter. That would be amazing. Goals0 -
Thanks everyone my daughter is okay, she had 8 stitches in her leg from a cut, but she is already running around like it didnt happen i am just hoping she doesnt rip them or anything, and i was so glad my husband was home from work so i didnt have to wake up my 11 year old.
@crochetkeepsmehappy. The fact that you are so stressed out and maintaining really shows that the changes you are making are sticking with you, great job.
@bmeadows380 those early mornings are harsh! I wish life started at 10 am.

Thought i would check in on everyones weekend...
I spent my weekend mostly at home waiting for my husband to get home... He was late... By like 2days.... Crazy manitoba weather. We did get our room cleaned though amd i did lots of walking friday and saturday...
I ate way too much yesterday, but today im having a normal eating day. So all is good. Kids stitches come out thursday and then i have a 6 day weekend, friday to wednesday. Going to be a good few weeks.
Hope everyone elses weekend was well.0 -
Mine was the same old story as every weekend, lol
I worked ten hours Saturday, went grocery shopping and then grabbed a pizza and came home. Sunday, as usual, I spend 90% of the day in the kitchen, finishing cleaning up from the week, and prep cooking....I made lemon blueberry bread, apple cinnamon bread and cabbage rolls and perogies this week.0 -
Ohhh i love cabbage rolls i totally need to dig some out of the freezer for supper tonight yum now i know what to have...0

We're on a huge cabbage kick right now . . . I have halusky, jalapeno-peach slaw, and colcannon in the fridge right now. And half a head of shredded cabbage that will be another batch of halusky later in the week. Maybe cabbage rolls next week . . .0

Venting: I've been on radio silence lately, and it shows on the scale. Up again. I have been working 12+ hrs plus commute every day, so needless to say no gym. By the time I get home, put the kids to bed, I am starving for dinner and it is about 9. Then I eat and too tired to do anything.
Today I made a stand. Temptations at work have been horrible. Film free food it too much to resist. Slowly going to craft service more and more. Today I said "No craft service food" I have my snacks (veggies and an Asian pear and a small apple sauce brownie). Huge temptation came, free Dairy Queen Ice Cream, anything I wanted to order......I texted my wife for reinforcements and looked up the calories on the items I was thinking about. My wife, and I and the power of God, talked myself down from a large blizzard, to a peanut parfait, to a buster bar, to a dilly bar, to nothing. Even though my co workers were "Are you sure", "you're missing out", "I don't accept no as an answer" was even a response. It was like a boxing ring of NO.
Even after they came they asked If I wanted one as they had bought a box of something. Come on people this isn't fair.
Alas, thank you for the vent, I'm still a little angry I chose today to put my foot down, and grumpy I missed out, but really what have I missed, 12 hours walking to take it off? Or worse at least .5 lb up in calories, which usually translates to more on the actual scale.
Cheers everyone. Almost April, I hope everyone did better than I did in March.
Walk On.
