Check in Friday.....

Happy Friday everybody! Hope everyone's week has gone well. I've gotten my my water, vitamins and exercising in this week and have done okay with my food intake. I'm bad about wanting to snack in the evenings and am having a hard time with that. My goal for this week is not to snack in the evenings. I'm planning on bringing more fruit home to have on hand. I love watermelon and cantelope!!!! Hopefully, if I get those prepared and in the fridge, I'll grab that if I have an "emergency" moment. Wishing everyone a happy 4th. We plan on spending it relaxing around the pool with some friends.... with chicken on the grill. No big to-do since its in the middle of the week! Hugs, Wanda

Hi Happy Friday. Long weekend coming up for most people. I have done well this week with my water and vitamins. Chewing on ice and gum has helped me overcome my snacking urge. Cantalope and watermelon sound wonderful, cut them up into bite size pieces and put them in a container that is a good idea. Happy 4th. I hope everyone meets their goals for the week. Mine are the same water, protein and vitamins. Try to reduce my carb intake. And to get movin'!!!!! Love Ya Annette

Im reposting this... Im finally doing ok with my stomach, Mary. I finally was forced to go to the ER on sunday night, and while nothing is bleeding or abnormal, they did put me on protonix for 15 days. Since I cant afford them I went with the Prilosec for the same amt of time and Im avoiding all things with flavor. HAHA. ACtually, the Prilosec makes every taste terrible so it coudl be a blessing in disguise. Im lacking in the protein dept. however by the only protein shakes I enjoy are CHOCOLATE!! Everything else is gross...blah. Ive been eating some whole wheat mac and cheese and chicken cooked in cream soups so its tender. So the scale isnt in the equation but lots and lots of water makes the yucky taste go away!! WOOHOO!! To add, I lost 5 lbs in 5 days probably from all the water Ive been drinking. Ive been trying really hard to watch my eating and snacking and I guess Ive been doing a good job. Happy 4th! sarah
