did you try powder creamer? non dairy? low fat milk is very high in sugar, that's why its not that good for us, half and half is better, with cream you only need a drop because its so heavy... I use powder creamer (I had to get used to it) with a drop of half and half. crystal light ice tea is all decaf... PSSSSS: good luck today!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you will be fine... I never liked firing someone.. one job I had I had to fire the entire staff at a location (they were stealing, lying on their time sheet's etc) boy did they yell and threaten. if you need to have security escort her out of the building. have security with you (waiting) to help her get her things and leave. That is what my husband had to do with his last firing... it was ugly!

morning all well I did fine all day, then the evening hit. My plan is to have fluids and protein shakes throughout the day, then have a light main meal in the evening. Had a few things that I would rather I hadn't, but today is a new day. All the time I'm not eating I'm ok as I can live with that boundary. The minute I start eating I find it hard to stop - too much of a soft boundary. So today I plan to have a protein shake if I want to eat in the evening when I shouldn't, instead of reaching for food. Hope you all had a good day yesterday and that today gets even better for you

So far so good. My sister picked tonight to take us out for dinner and I told her that she would have to take the boys without me. She was a bit put off because she hadn't thought that she would be doing childcare, but I said that it was unfair to expect me to sit and watch them eat their dinners in front of me and she had already told the boys she was taking us out for dinner. Family.... I am doing well, I have quaffed 4 protein drinks and one emergen-C so far. I have two more protein drinks before bed and a ton of water left to drink. I have had two coffees with cream instead of the standard lattes, so that has been strange. More strange than not eating, believe it or not Evening is my downfall. So far I haven't been hungry but I have thought that I should eat. Then I remember that I am not eating... but I haven't had any burning hunger pains or anything. I got my period yesterday and that always gives me a headache for a while, but I didn't stop coffee for that reason today, so I think I will be okay. This feels good so far... I think I am going to remember what real hunger feels like rather than emotional hunger. That is the plan anyways I hope everyone is doing well Holly

bought the asian spray dressing and i'm gonna rock it! I DID forget to buy salad and mine went funky on me so i'll go out yet again tonight (in the rain EWW) and go buy a nice salad so i can have chicken and salad with asian dressing for lunch tomorrow or maybe even breakfast. ANDI

Howdy Trish! What did you make y ou for breakfast and lunch, I could use some new ideas already. I'm having steak for dinner, a burger for lunch (all cow all day is my motto today) and i had (2) cheese sticks for breakfast. The firing is tomorrow so i get to be a bundle of raw nerves for yet another day. ANDI
