TJ's and WFs are both in Union Square If you drive you could pack a cooler and make a monthy trip

I see they do carry the products over at a Shoprite I don't frequent but I hope they have more than just the potato pancakes.

Where do you find them anyway Reg? Organic natural or ethnic part of frozen foods?

They're over by the organic stuff.......near Boca Burgers, etc.

I heard from the company I was interviewing with (3 interviews and counting). They offered me the position I was interviewing for!!!!! Yay. Actually, they were so impressed with my resume, they went to the executive committee to get permission to offer 50% pay to me than someone they would normally hire for the position, as they are going to add to my duties the job of writing some training manuals and training new hires (my career love, but not what I'm currently doing).

Anyway, I'm excited, yet feeling weird...like now that I got what I wanted, now what?

I hate my current position, and yet, I know what I'm doing. I think it's the fear of the unknown. I will be sitting down tomorrow night with pen and paper and deeply analyzing the pros and cons of both positions.

I will keep you all informed and I promise, no food binges....

Congrats Pam! That is excellent!!!! You must feel very proud of yourself!

I don't know about anyone else but I am having a hard time eating all my points in this heat! In fact I only had 13/20 and I have 3AP's. I think it's the heat and this new medication I am on for the next 2 weeks.

I didn't have any veggies and only one fruit today. *tsk tsk* I usually do 4 -5veggies and 1-2 fruits/day. (I don't ever count my Green shake because that's a supplement.)

Oh I have a question for y'all. Who counts beans (chickpeas, black beans, kidney, etc.) as a veggie? I don't but to my surprise Real Age does. So I am curious, does anyone else?

Let me say this.....my half hour meeting will not be all about the food. 15 min on food finds/recipes, and 15 min on the weekly topic. I hate meetings that are "Where do you buy that bread"? "What's that recipe again? "

I have a new jog buddy and she is training to be a leader. I will have to ask her about pay.

I figured they did it to share the good they have done w/ all of the unknowing newbies.

You're right some is better than nothing, do what you can.

Good luck to Wednesday WI's!!

Ugh, today was horrible for me! No specific reason, but I can look back and see that i didnt have breakfast, and that probably set me off. I had coffee, and then lunch about 12, and i ate out, and wasnt careful...

BUT, i logged it all, and am still under my flex, and mentally, for me, this is good. Because I feel like i am still coming in under the guidelines, and so i dont take that mentality of ...'oh i blew it, i might as well eat that cake, or those chips', and that is normally what i do.

I had a bowl of my kids cereal, and milk, but when adding it to my tracker, it actually isnt that high! wow...it is the generic, choco lucky charms, and skim milk, only comes out to 3 pts! for 3/4 c cereal, and 1/2 c skim milk. I really felt like i was eating something really sinful, and it is nice to know I didnt. Tomorrow is WI, and I start over, so I will try harder I started paying for ww online today, and I think my best friend signed up for it too!

Congrats!! what field are you in?

[slimdays]

Hello fellow Rockstars! I lost 1.8 today!!!!!!!!!!! Yay!!!!! That took care of the gain last week plus a pound!!! I am very pleased. I guess the extra water did work. I had at least 3 24oz bottles of water a day and sometimes 4. I also cut back on some snacks that I was having.

Reg: The leaders do make their money according to how many ppl are in the meeting. It has always been that way. Then the good leaders make more money because ppl tend to find out about them and seek them out. It seems fair. They wanted me to get my pass at the center instead of online too. They get credit for that as well.

Thanks.....I need all the vibes you guys can give.........I've been slacking in the tracking area and it's just been too hot to exercise. I've only managed to do the wii fit 15-30 minutes every-other-day

I havent weighed myself on the Wii, so I am clueless. I found out this week that cookies (the COSTCO kind) are a huge trigger for me.

Today I have to shop for Father's Day Brunch (our first ever....15 guests), COSTCO, probablya stop at the cemetary because it's on the way, and I wanted to make the onion rings for my meeting at noon.

We shall see.....I could really use a last-chance-workout
