Serial Starters

Any meatloaf is good meatloaf. I love meatloaf

Hope everyone had a good evening

Our recital was loooong but my boy did a great job. We ended up having Thai delivered after. Tomorrow is the last day of school so we'll have McDonalds for lunch.

I feel like I want to run tomorrow. But I might skate and they means super sore and tired legs if I do. I've been doing well with my latest restart. I need to keep the momentum

Good morning!

Crazy week, I dunno, they keep telling us things will get calmer and less chaotic at work but then they dump yet more tasks on us and there's even more chaos.

First and second gym workout were great and I'm going again today. I know I said the goal is to go once a week per month, doesn't mean I can't go more often if I feel like it.

AOTD (yeah, I'm fashionably late) - I'll have a banana and an apple to snack on at work. We get free fresh fruit every week and I'm a cheapskate and rely on what's there. This week's delivery's looking gooood, lots of bananas, apples, plums, apricots...

Annie - Wow, the trouble with your neighbor sounds like it came straight out of a movie. I hope things will be better now, even though he didn't get arrested.

Lana - Good job logging. I know it can be hard to stick with it. Personally, I especially get encouraged on days when I know my choices weren't the greatest and it's hard to dodge the 'What's the point?' mentality.

Sara - You're right, it's not about the number on the scale. The whole package of being healthier and feeling better is important.

Okay...back to work. *waves*

Ali - sounds like a good evening... glad recital went well... my cousins little boy (8) started playing piano just a few months ago...I am impressed at how well he is doing...I played for years and was never as good as he is already... very proud of him..
Running or skating sound like a great day...I had recently started C25K... I made it to week 3, lost my job (worked at shelter and walked with dogs) and I haven't started, again... keep thinking I will get back to it... just not working out just yet...

Well, I should not have said anything... got called into work...I really wanted to say no, as I only got about 5 hrs of sleep and have been up since 1:00pm... have to work til 7:00am... it's only 1:00am and I'm already exhausted..the other girl called in... shocking... this is 3rd time in 2 weeks... she just had last 2 nights off... on the plus side, that means I get 40hrs this week, instead of just 32... so, gotta think of it that way... definitely gonna go home and crash, in morn...

Alright... back to work before I get too comfortable...

oh no did you make it through?

I really want meatloaf now.

It's the last day of school here for the summer. Hooray. it's a dreary, drizzly day which I'm sure is making my throat feel tender but I just saw two cardinals on the deck so it's a good day.

Hope everyone has a fantastic Thursday, it's Friday Eve!!!!

Thursday

Day is already crazy at work. Yesterday I completely fell off the wagon at work due to a potluck and lots of desserts and sweets. Trying to stay strong today as the table in the break room is still full. I'm sure I wouldn't want to see the scale right now. I have been out of control! And I've got my parents coming to visit for a few days which usually equals a food fest. Argh! I really need to get my winter weight off before winter hits again! Good snacks packed today. Just need to keep my hands off the sweets!

DH forgot he had made an appt for the dog at the groomer yesterday - he thought it was today (didn't write it down or put it in his phone) and now they are booked up until after next week. I wanted her cleaned up well before our company arrived. He'll take her and wash her himself - but we can't trim her nails and she really needs that done. But, it will have to wait.

Enjoyed a nice outdoor concert last night at a local park. Weather could have been a bit warmer, but it was still enjoyable.

Lana - looks like you are doing well with tracking and weight loss. Good for you!

Will lurk from work.

Annie

Happy afternoon all. T minus 30 minutes until my boy is off school for the summer. I'm kind of excited because it means sleeping in and fun stuff like going to the museum or to the aquarium and walking along the lake.

I was hoping to get a run in because it will probably be my last for awhile but it was thundering so I did some crazy video with one legged burpees and other insane things. My butt better look spectacular.

@hickchic67 I've been curious about those paint nites. Everyone always makes such nice paintings. do they guide you or as you say you don't care because of the wine?

@gemwolf110 hope your fiancé agrees with the plan for walking sounds like a good way to start the day

Oh man lasagna now... You people will be the death of me!!!!! All my faves mentioned

Mmmmm......Amy's does make good frozen meals. Thumbs up! I like their pasta bowls--I add leftover veggies to them, and they then make quite the dinner!

Lana

Lana - I think other girl is just young, immature and doesn't care... sadly... probably one of those "job hoppers" she will have worked 1 day, in over a week...I could not do that... mostly, because I could not survive financially... also, because I just wouldn't want to come back... she may be upset, as she got a day cut, when I was hired.. but, she was already calling in and not doing things right... so, it wasn't due to my getting hired...I just will never understand how people can just call in or quit... it's just not me

Sara/ Ali - I will hafta send care packages with Meatloaf, next time I make it

Annie - maybe, get in some extra walking while family is in town? I have same problem when I go home...we always have to eat at Olive Garden with Gma... and, there's usually at least one fast food meal in there, at some point... wherever you eat, maybe you'll still have the chance to make good choices... good thoughts coming your way..

Boss told me, I can eat any leftovers... so, I have been "sampling " a few things... nothing too bad... except...the cake I baked the other night... ugh..the pieces are small, and I stop myself at one... but, I really should just pretend it's not even there... it's so yummy, tho..she baked a cherry pie, tonight... luckily, I'm not big on fruit pies... unless it's Apple... so, I will probably do good at not eating any leftovers of that..

Alright...I need to get back to it...
Hope everyone had a great night

Hi everyone this weight loss thing is harder than i thought i currently weight 259, and I refuse to gain anymore weight. Im trying to eat healthier but at night after dinner i feel like im starving. I must admit last night i cheated and ate fried food. Any advice?

Chisom -
First post?
That's gotta be a typo.
20+ pounds in 30 days?
If it is not a typo, you have come to the wrong board/thread.
