D out to eat

S maybe some popcorn later, Have trouble avoiding trigger  foods if i stay up too late!

miles yes, fluids 11 cups so far, vites yes

We woke up to a lot of snow this morning.  DH went hunting but it's almost 2:00 and I am still in my nightgown...haha.

I think staying up to late is part of my problem too.  If I were "dieting" I wouldn't even think of eating after 8:00.  Maybe I should consider doing that.

I soooo miss my Wendy's chili!!!

Sounds Good!

I have eliminated my morning snack and shifted my meal/snack times to 730, 12 noon , 3pm, 6 pm and 9 pm.  I enjoy that evening snack, but sometimes i just keep on eating.  If I can't learn to control this, i will have to eliminate that evening snack  but I really don't want to.

I dozed off a couple of times at DD's before the ball dropped.  I don't know how that was possible with the noise level from the adults playing games and the grandkids squealing but it happened.

Sounds Good Linda!

I'll be in bed way before the new year arrives, lol. 

It was cold and windy here all day, never made it to 40.  But I walked Thor this morning then drove Halley this afternoon.  Then this evening while cooking dinner the brand new microwave stopped working.  I am way over this.  So hopefully we can just take it back and get a new one tomorrow but it is big and heavy and a pain to deal with. 

decaf protein coffee  33g
eggbeaters, cheese, spinach
lemon tea protein hot  13gm
ham and bean soup w/ cheese
lemon tea protein hot  13g
hamburger patty on 1 piece of ww toast, asperagus

Wow...you haven't had it very long.  Hopefully they will take it back. I bought mine at Walmart and I think they take everything back.

I never thought to put cheese in my ham and bean soup.  I have some in the freezer so I need to remember to try that.

Sounds Good Price!

We went to bed early. Happy New Year!

When you are so used to going to bed early it probably would be hard for you to feel refreshed in the morning if you stayed up late.  Midnight or a little after is my usual time.  Apparently I did dose off a couple of times though.

I'm having a lazy day here. It's almost 2:00pm and I'm still in my nightgown. Lots of snow and the house seems really cold.
