Morning everyone
My kiddos school was closed today due to an outbreak of strep!! It's a very small private school, but still, there's quite a few students and teachers sick. My two girls are fighting what I think are just colds, but the school says if they even have sore throats, we can't bring them. So I'm taking all the kids to the doctor today for strep cultures to be 100% sure. While I'm there, I'll see if my lab results are back from last week and get a new script for me for B12 shots for twice per month instead of just once. I'm really starting to get tired again. I'm thinking it's I'm needing more B12.
Other than that, just busy trying to keep up around here. How's everyone else doing? Getting ready for Thanksgiving next week? Do you all have to cook? Or do you go to family's house? This year, we're going to my parent's - but some years we do have it here.
Have a great day!

Hi all!
I can't believe it's 4 PM already - time to go home, but soooooo busy!
It's been so hectic that all I've had to eat today is a protein drink. I did go on the treadmill for about 20 minutes, and I have tap class tonight. I'll probably have a turkey burger for dinner afterwards. Yum!
Well, anyway, I didn't want the day to go by without checking in. Hope you're all doing grand!! Traci - how are you feeling?? Better, I hope.
Hugs,
Nancy

Hey Nancy!
Yesterday was an excellent day. I walked 10 miles and stayed away from sugar and white carbs. Let's see if I can do again! It's one day at a time for life! It's a pain, but it's better than being 326 not able to tie my own shoes!!
Thanks ladies for bringing back the conversation on this board. I really helps me to know I'm not alone!
HUGS!
Denise

Hi everyone
I'm not feeling well today. I had a migraine all day yesterday and my IBS is really acting up today and my migraine is trying to come back.
Soooo, I'm laying low and popped on to check in, but am heading back up to bed.

Yikes, we missed yesterday!
I have to admit, I've been straying from what I should be doing and when I stray,I tend not to post. I'm making sure I get here every day, good or bad, naughty or nice, fat or thin!!!
It seems I can go a month or so being good, and then I need to spread my wings a bit and have some cookies, sweets, etc. I'm hoping those few days are over - I gained about 1.5 lbs. I refuse to go over 180 lbs. again, so I'm going to start the liquids either today or tomorrow and do the 5 DPT to get back on track before I gain all the weight I lost and have to start over again. We all know the season of food is about to begin and I'd like to be at a good starting weight in case (OK - WHEN I sample some of those holiday treats!
). So I'm getting back on track - with the exercise too.
I'm working from home today and I already have my tap shoes on - I'm going to practice throughout the morning. I have a make up class I have to take, so my friend and I are doing it tonight, then will have our regular class tomorrow night, so hopefully I'll be back on track with my exercise as well.
Hope everyone is well - c'mon gals, check in and let us know how you're doing!!
Hugs,
Nancy

Hi Nancy - I figured you got busy. I can't eat rice of any type. Also makes me sick. Have fun curtain shopping.
How are you the rest of you ladies doing? Still out there? Denise - you still doing okay? Take it moment by moment - you can do this!!!! Michelle, Monna.... how you two doing?
I'm doing well. Just got back from grocery shopping. Boy was it crowded today!! I'm used to shopping during the week on Thursdays - not on Saturdays. Big difference in the volume of people. My hubby just took the kids for a hike at the park. I don't do outdoor things well with my migraine triggers and all and considering that I just walked for hours pushing a heavy cart around THREE different stores to get the grocery shopping done, I figure that was workout enough for me for today.
Have a great day everyone!

I didn't make it online yesterday. I was overwhelmingly busy at work - the only one there and I started early and didn't get out until late. I didn't even get on the public internet, so my apologies for not checking in yesterday.
So, with the stress of work and the fact that I had been very good for about a month, combined with work supplying desserts - I hardly need to say more. I had cookies and Reese's peanut butter cups at work and on it went. It was a very bad day eating wise. My saving grace is that my son brought home sushi, and I tried it. The sticky rice made me barf
so that at least slowed me down. Also, I haven't exercised for two days - not good.
Luckily I have today to try and get back on track. I've got a full day planned - away from temptation. I bought pork rinds that I will try later for a snack after I've had my protein and water. I will do a WATP video and practice my tap dancing. I hate the way I feel when I pig out.
Well, off I go curtain shopping with my dad. Should be interesting, huh???
Hope everyone is doing better than I did yesterday!!
Hugs,
Nancy
