Wow, Roz, you really did do good at the party.  Hurray for you.

I went on my walk this morning, drove Halley and have been working since.  I am planning on muscle pump this evening but have to sit by the phone waiting for a phone appt with medicaid that they said would happen this afternoon.  With the state changes, part of my business information was screwed up when they downloaded it into the new system and I can't get it straightened out.  they are suppose to have someone call who can get it straight, we will see.

I managed to stay out of the M&Ms all day yesterday and so far today.  I got chocolate calcium chews and that has been my sugar fix.

decaf protein coffee  33g
2 eggs, 2 turkey bacon
lemon tea protein  13g
eggplant parm/chicken
caribean cooler protein 13g
pizza chips
hamburger, carbquick roll, brocalli
protein shake  33g

I'm trying to figure out my Mom's Medicare and Highmark Insurance.  I'm no good at this!  They make it so complicated.

I used to take the calcium chews and that was my treat in the afternoon.  I need to buy some!

Sounds Good Price!

after I sat inside all afternoon waiting on the call, he finally called this morning and couldn't fix any of it.  Just pushed it on to the next person to "expidite".  Yeah right, I have been trying to get it fixed since early July.

My Director is going through the same thing.  He got a call this morning from someone he thought would have all of the answers but of course they didn't.  He is back to square one.

That was 1 day of willpower after 2 weeks of sweet cravings!   Normally I don't struggle too much with cravings so maybe it was the excitement and stress of the wedding.  I think I had 3 pieces of my DD's wedding cake last week!!

The key is to avoid sweets and bad carbs as loooong as you can! 

Sounds Good!

You showed amazing self-restraint at that party - impressed!

Exercise today was a 20 minute kettlebell routine with some extra pushups and tricep presses thrown in. 

My DD got married on the 18th and I had 3 pieces of cake the week following...I HAD TO GET BACK ON TRACK!

Sounds Good!
