Yes, I know it's Thursday but Friday eve sounded so much better. We went to the church potluck last night. I ate way more carbs than I should have but all in all didn't do too bad. My blood sugar this morning showed that I was probably better than I thought. No exercise yesterday though....nobody to watch Sadie...plus I was PMSing and exhausted. I laid on the couch and played with Sadie. Today is work...then walking group...although it looks like nobody else can make it. I told DH I'm walking anyway. I'll bring my radio/headphones if I have to. After walking it's off to church to bake apple pies for a fundraiser. My son is going on a youth conference trip next summer so we're working on getting enough money raised for them to go. It's in Tennessee and it's a week long. Tomorrow evening I plan to go to the gym again. That will make 3 days of intentional exercise this week which was my goal. I'm also concentrating on eating better. I want to be under 200 lbs by Christmas. I can do it!! I weighed in at the Drs office yesterday at 210...the gym scale said 212 on Monday so I'm somewhere around there. Aunt Flo is about to visit too so I'm sure I'm retaining a bit of water. I think if I can get under that 200 lb mark I'm going to do something for myself...like a tattoo or something.
So far today
1 slice toast
tuna fish
2T mayo

Lunch will be-
Lean cuisine meal-not sure which one yet

Dinner-
I'll be on the run so I think I'll grab a chicken sandwich...no sides

Snack-
MMM probably an apple while baking-good thing we're selling those pies and not eating them

Topic: RE: Wednesday check in!

I usually dread going to the gym too but once I'm there I enjoy my time. I work from home and work around Sadie's schedule so at home I'm always either working or taking care of her. I get very little quiet time for me. So...this gym thing is my excuse to get out of the house and get time for myself. Tomorrow I will be walking outside though unless it rains....there's a goup of us from church that go walkin Thur afternoons. We just hired a new pastor on Sun too and his wife is hoping to make it. It'll be a great way to get to know her.

Jamie~Have you tried the non-fat creamer? I don't notice a difference in the taste. Dylan LOVES to sit in our front window & watch outside. Especially when the motorcycles pull up if we have friends over. Or when the school bus comes, he loves those! I work for transit & took him to the shop, hubby is a mechanic for transit too, & just did not know what to do with all the busses everywhere! LOL

Michelle~I don't know about you, but I seem to always dread going to the gym but feel awesome when I do! I wish I was at 212, 2 more lbs from that & I could go in for my consult for a TT. I want to get down to 190 before a TT, but the dr said I have 20lbs of skin on me at least so that would take me to 190. But, if i did get to 190 then I could be at 170, but I might look like a wafe then. LOL I guess I just need to work on getting there first! LOL

Yesterday, I had my coffee with that FATENING creamer, ugh, this is going to be a hard one to break!!

Yesterday:
B- 2 eggs, 1 slice toast
L- Leftover enchalada & home made macaroni salad
D- baked chicken & lipton noodle dish

dessert - Lite peach yogurt (better than the popsicle habit DH got me into over the summer... NO MORE of those)

OK, that is my yesterday, I hope over time I can break the coffee........ going to be hard with the cold weather coming on & STAYING.

Hunter had a GREAT day at daycare yesterday. He behaved well & helped out!!!
Then, when we got home, big equipment was delivered across the street to the empty lot & the excavator broke ground & put in a driveway. DH went over & talked to them (with Hunter) and the well will be drilled and the septic will be going on today.
So, Hunter & I stood at the end of the drive way and watched them as they got all the equipment unloaded, he thought that was COOL!!!!!! Of couse he cried when I tried to drag him into the warm house to watch from the livingroom window. But, once his shoes & coat came off, and I told him to look out the window, the crying was replaced with stares out the window as he watched!!!!!

I know I've had elk & it tasted a little gamey. I've had moose & loved it! It was just made with some cream of mushroom soup & I think it was the best meat I've ever had. I don't think I've ever had deer, that I know of anyways. My step-dad liked to give us stuff & then tell us what it is. Like the chicken that was actually rabbit.

Topic: Wednesday check in!

Hey girls!

I'm down a pound today! Yeah! I didn't get any good excercise in yesterday, I was up & about through the office a lot though.

Breakfeast-protein coffee
Lunch-I was going to have a salad from BK, but when I arrived there the American Chicken sandwich they are serving again was saying please eat me. So, I got a meal, which is stupid because I can only eat half a sandwich and about half the fries. Oh well!

Dinner-fried chicken thigh & a little macaroni & potato sald.

Have a great day everyone!
