Hi Gina and everyone,
Went looking for jeans....too many choices. Never had this many when I wore big girl clothes.
Way too many carbs today, either celebrating a late birthday or an early weekend.

B: double protein shake, bacon
S: double protein shake
S: Adkins almond cranberry bar (out shopping and got hungry)
L: egg salad, CS fudge bar
S: small bag of popcorn with extra butter
D: shrimp ****tail and scampi (9 total), cheddar biscuit, cesear salad, small baked potato
S: probably nothing ???

Vites and fluids done,
Exercites: 20 minute walk.

Did you find a pair or jeans? I seem to need someone to shop with me or at least a sales person to babysit me when I shop. lol

Yes, finally. Guess I never really appreciated how the fit varies with brands and styles. Had to try a lot on, I was looking for something that was comfortable and didn't bother my hernia.

I need to shop with someone, too.

BTW: my brother sent me a Starbucks gift card and a 2 POUND BOX OF SEE'S CANDY for my birthday. LOL. Thank goodness the candy isn't "calling" me. DH is taking the candy to work.

Hello all you lovely ladies!

BITES:
B - Double protein coffee shake
      Slice of Julian bread with 2 oz. Manchego cheese melted on top.
L - Probably 2.5 cups of left over Thai soup.  Polished it off finally.
D - Burger King double stacker, no bun
      Satay chicken skewer, wilted spinach
Snacks: cup of Fage with SF Jello cheesecake pudding & half & half mixed in.
     Amber Lyn sugar free chocolate bar (maybe)
Bedtime - another shake- Nectar syntrax apple ecstacy.
Totals - around 980 calories after DS math, 62 net carbs & 200 grams protein.  *woot*

VITES - forgot them again today so have taken iron, multis, and BA calcium chews; will make up others during evening, night, and bedtime batches.  Meh.

EXERCITES - none other than sitting on balance ball all day at work.  Double Meh.

Have a great weekend everyone!
Kim

How do you set up your balance ball at work? I have a lap top...thinking I could sit on the ball with my lap top on my knees. Is that what you're doing?

I have a desktop computer on a modular desk unit.  So it is stable.  I just sit on my ball instead of my regular chair part of the day. 



I'm really low, though, and am hoping that the company will pay for me to get a ball chair.   

 I just have to wait for the ergonomics evaluation to decide if they will pay for it or if I will.  (I had a doctor recommend it and it might be considered a necessary accomodation.)

Hi y'all - (Texan here)

L - Chick-fil-a Chargrilled salad w/bleu cheese dressing (didn't eat all the vegis) (14g ?)
S - Fuzy Navel Nectur (30g)

Water:  64 OZ
Morn Batch:  done
Mid Morn:  done
Mid Afternoon:  done

Exercites:  walked dog 5 blocks out and 5 blocks back (very good for me, a first!)

I saw your beef in stewed tomatoes and added both to my grocery list. I think I'll make a big pot of veggie beef soup for the family this week.

Bites look pretty good. When you can, add another shake and let's see how it works for you. 

When Fran gets back online after she recovers from her surgery a bit, I hope you guys will stay on Bites and Vites and encourage more new folks to join in. Thanks.
