Trying to stay up beat but darn it! The people on the freeways today were NUTZ! I saw more fingers and fists waving this morning than I saw on MONDAY! And I had contact with one of my most remedial students (office worker) three times before 8:30..I've come to the conclusion that she is just not teachable! I'ts been a LONG day..the end of a LONG week..whew..so glad it's the weekend..

How did you do? 

I agree with TGIF! Not sure why since I am working my second job this weekend 7 AM-7PM Saturday and Sunday. I already put in 50 hours at my primary job, oh well we need the money and I am grateful for the opportunity to make the extra money. I know others do not have the same opportunity. I volunteered half a day on Wednesday at Project Homeless. It is an event that provides services for the homeless; dental care, medical care,and all kinds of social services. It was packed; people were waiting out in the cold for hours before we opened up.
0845-protein drink with soy milk
1215-blackened ceasar salad w dressing on the side
1515-cottage cheese mixed fruit cup nsa
1830-teriyaki chicken and steamed veggies-not one grain of rice!
2030-apple and PB
all my water and such. I did not follow the 5 day thing to the letter but feel in control again. Halloween sugar cookies in the copy room did not even tempt me and I did not keep thinking about them all day like I usually do.

I know. I'm so thankful that I have a good paying job with benefits. Seeing the lines outside in the cold is a stark contrast to the occupy wall street bunch.

That's cool that the 5dpt gave you back  your control! When I get really stressed and feel like I might lose control I hit the liquids for a day. It's sort of a mind reset, bordering on religious fasting sort of thing with me. I haven't had to do it in quite some time. My problem lately is that I've been walking at lunch some days ****il my walking partner hurt her foot..) and immediately the scale went up 2-3 pounds and has stayed there..I stress over that. You know the mindset.."is this the start of it? I'm I doomed to diet again?" I know. I know..three pounds doesn't an obese person make but ARGH...

In any case, if you enjoy what you are doing, you LIKE going there..

Keep up the good work.
