Hump Day September 1st

Good Morning All   . . . welcome to September!

What's in your cup this morning?  I just finished my quiet time with a cup of protein hot chocolate . .  nice and yummy!

Wow the big weekend is just a head of us . . can't believe how time flies.......
I am working 14 hours today but wanted to have time to myself before I get Hanna up and to daycare this morning. . today is my Friday so that is all the more reason for me to be up with a smile on my face.

QOTD:  Rants or Raves today  . . open forum

Rave . . that I am still working my plan for my health . . before I would have gotten tired of not seeing instant results (weight loss) but I am feeling so healthy . . and weird I feel younger . . I haven't  had any flour products since June 24 . . . I don't know if this is a ""forever thing but it "for now" thing.

Enjoy your day!

Hi Kristy

Good morning! I am enjoying my morning off work. I finished my cup of  decaf a few hours ago and had a scrambled egg with cheese for breakfast.

Sunday my  daughter will be moving back to EMU, so we have been packing and trying to condense her boxes down................picture lots of stuffing, sitting on boxes and duct tape!

Rave--The Peach Festival starts tomorrow in Romeo!

I've been over to EMU the last two nights moving my kids in!  My daughter is in her 5th year there and will graduate in May and she just moved from an apartment into a different house.  My son is a freshman so I moved him in on Tuesday!  It was so hot moving everything with it being in the 90's!!  He got to move in early since his job on campus started yesterday.  It will be crazy over there Saturday with all the other new freshman moving in....glad I got to move him in early!

I love that they are at EMU because now that I live in Chelsea it is only like 20 minutes away!

Hi- I haven't been on this site like forever. But can relate to the college move in thing. Moved our son into Adrian college August 15th. He's a freshman and they go early for  welcome week. Long story short- blazin hot!
I'm back perusing the OH site for support.  Noticed a 5 pound weight gain and getting a little lazy lately.   Gotta get back on track.    Best of luck to your kids..........
 

Oh, and those poor kids - the dorms having no air conditioning make their rooms feel like an oven!!  Good luck to your son too!

I love coming to this site for support!  I'm not as far out as you, but can relate to the getting a little lazy lately!   I just got back from a 2 week honeymoon and with moving the kids in I haven't exercised in like a month!  And I think my main food lately has been pretzels....gotta break the carb habit!  Good luck getting back on track......

 

Nan--

Yes freshman move in is  nuts! I remember that day all to well.  My daughter lives on campus in her own dorm, this will be her first year with no roommates and she is really looking forward to it.  

EMU is about  2 hours from me, but still close enough to go visit her and go to dinner.

Good morning!

Started my morning off with an Ice Decaf Protein Coffee on the drive to work... then picked up my usual fake latte as I got to the office. Just finished a yogurt for breakfast, so now I'm set until lunch.

The weather keeps changing and that rain keeps creeping closer and closer to the weekend. Sure hope it doesn't decide to be a wet holiday.  I'm planning to be outside enjoying the sunshine on Saturday and probably strapped to the computer Sunday and Monday (with little breaks on the patio, of course).

QOTD -- Mmm....

Rave -- I had dinner last night with my now-retired-boss and his wife. She cooked the most delicious beef stroganoff and roasted veggies. Plus, she is fostering 5 super adorable kittens from the shelter right now, so I got to play with the little furballs. It was a nice evening with friends.

Rant -- My evil twin is messing up my house again. Why does she always have to sneak in when I'm not home and make everything dirty and messy? I've always got to clean up after her.  She's such a slob!

Almost afternoon all,

I've had my shake and vitamins, now I'm being bad a snacking on a few pita chips.  But I just looked at the clock, it's 11:45, no wonder I'm hungry, so I'll stop that and wait for lunch (luckily I only had 2)!  Lunch is going to be YUMMY, I have left over fillet mignon and sweet potato from dinner last night.

Q:  Rave:  I've been so busy lately with friends and family (sans my brother, see below), it's been great.  Last night I went to see Aerosmith... my BFF won tickets!! we had a ball. That's 3 concerts in less than 2 weeks!  How fun living life!  Love my RNY.

Rant:  My brother....but that's a long story I won't bore you with :).

Pam the news for down here this AM said now that Sat., Sun., and Mon., should be rain free! Have a great day all.

Kristy- I love your statement-I don't know if this is a 'forever thing'- but a "for now" thing.

            When it's a tough day- what a great way to put things into prospective. Diminishes the feeling of setting one's self up for failure.                        Take care- Jenny
