Monday Roll Call

Good Morning all,  I am up early today and about to get kids up for school, I am going to clean the house today and maybe later venture out to kohl's and GNC, I am still trying to find a protein that is good tasting. Right now I am trying pure protein shake in Chocolate not too bad and 35 grams of protein, now if it stays down I will be doing good.... Lets all remember Mika's surgery is today and Calvin's is tomorrow. I hope everyone has a great day and it is nice to see some of the others that have not been on in a while back on the boards. Have a great Day

Good morning Martha and IL, Well looks like we are getting rain here today, I have  house cleaning to do and I am off to the bank when they open, other than that not much else going on here, Martha , I hope you fine that protien you like, I love the one I get at woodmans, in Choc, I do mix it with milk and use the bullet, to mix it, Wishing Mika well with her sugery today, and Calvin with his tomorrow, Hope everyone has a great day,  Dont forget to get your  water,Vitamins and exerciseing in today,

Good Morning IL!!  Well this starts the week of waiting to find out about insurance.  I sent Michelle the 5 yr history on Saturday and sent it Priority.  I am hoping she will get in in the next couple of days.  From there I have NO idea how long it takes before she sends it in. 

Today I have work, homework and working out again.  I am finding that when I don't work out I feel like I am missing something.  That's good I suppose. 

The kids go back to school today too...yay! 
I hope everyone has a wonderful day and stay dry, it's supposed to rain and possibly even thunderstorm!  go figure.

Janet,  I still trying to find a protein I like but this pure protein mixed already is pretty good I am praying it stays down..... I love days like this when it rains makes it easier to stay in the house LOL

Good morning.  I just have to say I LOVE THIS WARM WEATHER!!!!!  Can it stay this way year around?  PLEASE!!!!  Also another bit of great news.  I normally don't weight myself on Mondays (and I just had an adjustment on Friday) but since Friday, I LOST 5.6 POUNDS!!!!!!!  YAY!!!!!  HAPPY MONDAY!!!!! On a bad note, I nearly broke my arms when I was walking to work because my undies were literally falling down when I was walking.  Thank god for pants and belts!  I didn't expose anything.  I hope that wasn't TMI either :)  Just thought it was a funny story.

That was some funny stuff!! It is good for belts or else I would have no pants to wear

OMG Barry i was laughing so hard when i read your undies post... but i do have to tell you its one of the first thing i notice when losing... those undies get loose!! Gotta love this warm weather these past few days. Im going out to start my bike up and take her out for a little bit! Congrats on your loss

Good morning! Its a wonderful day out!! Too nice out to go to work but I guess I will go anyway!! Went and worked out this morning and I think they had the heat on cause it was hot in there!! Turns out Im not teaching this semester due to a full time faculty needing another class. I was bummed but maybe I need a break!!

Good Morning Martha and the rest of Illinois! I am thinking of Mika today and wishing both her and Calvin great luck. Barry----that IS pretty funny about your undies and GREAT about the poundage! I am working today as usual.  Even though I hear it is pretty warm out, it still looks a bit gloomy here and our building really holds the cold, so I only have 2 layers on today (as opposed to the usual 4)! After work, I need to stop at the store for a couple of things for Wednesday's dinner and then to the meat processor for the rest of my meat that is now ready. 

I have been tracking my intake and exercise at Sparkpeople.com and also trying to add in a few more calories and make sure that I eat every 2-3 hours.  I have been doing this since last Thursday and dare I say it...........I had lost 4 pounds as of Saturday, but gained two back by this morning.  (I was not as regimented about it over the weekend, but I tried.)  Maybe, just maybe......this will be the answer to the dreaded plateau?  I DO know that I like the information that I have been getting from the site.  They talk about putting an end to dieting and focusing on being healthy.  What a concept!!!!! Glad to see some new "faces" and happy to hear from old friends! Everyone have a lovely day!

Well, my day started at 6:30 when my hubby kissed me goodbye, on his way to work. I rolled over and the next thing I knew, my five-year old was saying "Mommy, it's 7:55." He has to be at school, 20 minutes away, at 9:00 a.m., so I had to haul ass to get him, the toddler and myself fed, dressed and out the door. Aargh... All is well now. I just got approved for the DS and am scheduled for February 22. I'm excited, but shaking in my shoes.  Have a good day everyone. Nicolle
