    Well, I went to the dr. after work tonight and I have an ear infection in my right ear and a bulging ear drum with lots of fluid behind it in my left ear. Plus, I'm still coughing a little. So, I got some medication and hopefully will be back full board by Monday.

    Thanks to all for your well wishes, I really appreciate it:flowerforyou:

    (Where's our fearless leader been today?)

    Forgot to say I didn't work out tonight:frown:

    I also did not go the gym and work out today, I did buy a food digital scale and go shopping for us, ate out with GUILTLESS at Chili's - wow, it was in the database here, didn't even have to look it up (still did to make sure:laugh: ) so I separated all the meat and stuff to portion sizes so I will not skew from a size, bf was thinking I was so cute for loving my new food scale. BTW - I bought a scale two years ago but it was not digital, once it turned yellow from not using it, I gave it to the Vetrans.......so I'm happy that I'm doing it right again! for reals! He said my face looks smaller! whoo hoo!

    Good morning, greenies! Today I went for a two mile walk with some friends then after we were done, I did another two mile walk/jog. It felt really good after not being able to work out so much these last two weeks.

    Well, I need to go take a nap as I've had to take some cough medicine with codeine and now I'm really sleepy.:yawn:

    I'll check back later. Have a great day everyone!

    Hi everyone.... I was just reading how you all are doing and it sounds like most are doing terrific! Yeah.... I sure love to hear everyone being so up-beat!
    Ive been busy here today shopping and getting ready for the big game. I did NOT buy even a single bag of chips! DH is making the little smokie things but I never liked them so it will be easy for me to stay far far away from them. I decided to make spicy turkey balls with a light honey mustard dippin' sauce and veggies on the side ( oh ya.... light beer hehe) I think Im going to be ok :happy:
    We just set up our new bed and I can not tell you how excited I am to go to bed early tonight lol. We've had a water bed for three years.... needless to say I have not woke up pain free in three years so this is a big deal for me.
    Tonight is date night for us, so Im already trying to figure out what is safe for dinner. Ive been really good all day so Im going to be fine so long as I stay away from margaritas :drinker:

    Hey Green Team....

    So How is everyone's weekend going? Mine...Not so great. My mom had a Heart Attack. She is doing ok for right now, she's in the hospital for a few days, but I was pretty scared as I don't have contact with my dad and My grandma just passed this past summer. Plus I am getting Married next year, and i definately want her to be there. She is only 60 years old, but she is a smoker, has a bad diet, and high blood pressure. So it's gonna be a rough week for me....

    Thanks for listening!

    OMG - I lost my mother young (56) and my grandma two years thereafter, so I certainly understand your concern!!! I hope all works out with your mom and the wedding too (hugs). Keep your head up, I'm fairly convinced that I gained most of my weight after those previous family issues so at least you are doing something about it now. Keep us updated on your ma!:flowerforyou:

    I hate car salesman too.......why must they be so tricky.

    I just came back from working out........I KNOW...this was my day off. My one day off:huh:
    I just want to eat some stuff tonight at superbowl party. So I had a light work out and burned about 300 calories. Now I feel like I can have a beer and some cheese dip.:smile:

    This calorie counting is getting kinda obsessive with me....does anyone else feel that way???

    If I don't work out, I can only eat 1200 calories....well luncheon at Church and then super bowl........ouch!!!

    I will try to find those bars...sounds yummy!!

    Well...I hope the Texans have a good year coming up.....don't get me started though...they should have drafted Vince Young! That would have brought in a lot of $$$$ and excitement. I live outside of Austin.

    Keep up the good work with the food choices.

    I'm going for Arizona today! They might not get back to super bowl for several years.....you never know.

    lynette i feel the same way, LOL i feel like a pyscho about calories now, i went shopping with my brother and read EVERY label..he was laughing at me but some of that stuff is just crazy outrageous!

    I ate a very light breakfast about 100 cals or so, going to hopefully continue that throughout the day so I can have a little fun with the superbowl.

    Good Luck Green Beans! :wink:
