***Fabulous Friday Check In***

AllyKat · 07-01-2005, 02:35 AM

OMG - I'm off to bed but wanted to stop by and answer some questions and share some great news.

Renee - I was drinking "Crystal Clear" it's actually sparkling water w/natural flavors and splenda, so more like diet soda than water, but better than eating after dinner!

Traci - I have a very flexible job, so I have been scheduling my office hours so that I get home later, so I have been missing the afternoon monster. By the time I get home, it's close enough to dinner time that I don't have time to think about snacking. Good luck today.

Wendy - I have an awful sweet tooth too - somehow think I deserve a "treat" after every meal

Hi Mia! You're the one who posted the summary of the original challenge thread in the challenges forum, aren't you? Nice to have you back.

5cats - sorry you're struggling. I do that on and off. Been eating clean for four days now. If I can do it, so can you!!!

I got message today from a manager at a job I applied for, and am *so* psyched!

Wish me luck, and keep your fingers crossed. I'm expecting a call back tomorrow to schedule the interview (they wanted to schedule it at my "earliest convenience"!!!). I have to run off in the AM to find a better shirt, tho. I tried on the one I bought a few weeks ago specifically for interviews, and realized it's practically see-through (

), so I either need a new shirt or a tank to wear under it.

I did OK today, but not P1 at all. I am going to bed hungry tho, so I expect the scale to be friendly in the AM. Yeaa for not eating after dinner!

Morning....
Yes Ally that was me and it was a while back! thanks for remembering!

I had day 1 of phase one yesterday and ate ate ate... all legal but way too much mind you.. had a very upset stomach and kept thinking if I kept something in it I would feel better.
overnight the pain went into my left side and I hugged the heating pad all night
to the point of having wet hair...*yukk!
I finally gave in and took a pain pill.. seems to help.
hoping I do better today on my plan!
Im so glad there is a place for us all here now!
I look forward to getting to know all of you!
and hope you all have a wonderful 4th of july weekend!

Maybe the see-thru shirt will land you the job!

I'm on day three of PI. I don't feel as hungry today. I ate a LOT the first two days (under 1200 cal but it felt like 5000). I think I was was shoveling it in everytime I got a sugar craving so I wouldn't hit the candy in the machine at work.

At least it worked. I'd rather eat too much legal stuff than 5 candy bars a day. Buying a house and a dealing with a 17 year-old made me crazy this last month. I'm surprised I didn't turn in to Willy Wonka. Where's my golden ticket?

rhundt67 · 07-01-2005, 08:51 AM

I'm just dealing with TOM and insanely busy schedule here at work. Up .5 to 131.5 - which sucks, when at one time, just a couple of months ago I saw 124.

In August its my 20th class reunion and I think I'm going to go so I can make that my new goal to get back down.

Wearing my pedometer and hope to get out and do some major walking with the kids this weekend. Have a great 4th everyone!

Hi everyone. Sorry I've been MIA. I got sick on Sunday and have been feeling lousy all week. I pray Paige doesn't get it. She's only 6 weeks and I can't imagine her with a cold. SO far dh, dd and Paige are all fine but I know it's still possible for them to get sick. I guess there's not much I can do anyway. I've been getting in a ton of Vitamin C and trying to rest although it's difficult with the kids. Dh took the kids to my mil's for a little bit so I've been laying in bed. I can't sleep though so I'm just watching Judge Judy. lol
I had a bad day yesterday and pigged out. Whenever I'm sick I eat non stop and yesterday was no exception. I'm behaving today and trying to avoid any junk since I'll just get mad at myself when I'm well for eating junk and gaining weight. I'm going to pick up some sj fudgesicles to help with my sore throat and to help me avoid the sugary food.
I hope everyone has a great holiday weekend. We're going to have a bbq here on Sunday with our friends so I'm hoping this cold ends soon. I'm grilling chicken, burgers and hotdogs and having a veggie tray and a fruit tray so I won't be tempted. Normally I'm not but for some reason when I'm sick junk food has so much appeal.

Afternoon everyone - just a quick check in...today is really busy, and then looking forward to relaxing the rest of the weekend!! Workout was good last night, but I only did weights (arms/legs).
