Have a great BOTTing weekend!  I do not think I will be on at all next week, but I will be BOTTing, you can count on that!

Still having some pain so am going to only walk a little after work today.  I tend to either not walk at all or demand my body perform at a no-problem level.  Will I ever learn

I marvel as I look back on this week during which my weight  has been a little down one day - a little up another and can hardly believe I'm not in a frenzy.  Now that is GROWTH big time.  I believe it is because you all are so accepting that I am allowing myself to accept me just where I am.  I am doing my part by sticking to my food plan and leaving the results to Mother Nature.  (Can't deny I'd like to kick her in the rear - but that would probably make her slower LOL)  

I have changed my thinking from I've got to get this regained weight off as soon as I can to - I've got the rest of my life to get the weight off so I'll just stay on track and see what happens.  Now this is from the Queen of Impatience! 

Thank you BOTTers for being there.  Let's all have a super-fine BOTT weekend. 

The sun is shining and I'm so excited I am done work for the day.  I'm heading first to the Hershey outlets to Chicos.. I need a few longsleeved round neck layering tops.  All the ones I had are to big.  yeah.  Later today I'm either going for a walk along the river or doing day one of the couch to 5k.. (i'm thinking  the later) only because this weekend I'm going to see if my niece will run a 5k with me in the april/may timeframe.  .. wa whoo

b- skim milk with kashi crunch
s- hard boiled egg (trying to boost up protein today)
l - steamed chicken wrap
S- protein drink or bar
d - i'm thinking of doing a chicken / pineapple pizza tortilla

Everyone have a wonderful Friday

I ended up eating a small fry and frosty aaahhh why i don't know I was thinking food would help my headache and nothing else sounded appealing.. 

Hello Fellow Chicos Shopper - I LOVE Chicos - I don't dare go there very often as every time I do I do major damage to my checkbook

I'm such a regular they call me whenever they get in something purple 

Well driving over I ended up with a headache that just kept getting worse... I ended up getting two tops for 17 dollars total..  I ended up coming home and going to sleep for a bit.. I was so psyched because of the great weather and I ended up sleeping it away.  Oh well life goes on and tomorrow is another day.   

What a bargain - wish I had a Chicos outlet nearby!  Think you most likely needed the rest or you would not have snoozed like you did.  Sometimes our bodies take over and force us to get what we need. in spite of ourselves.  

Have a fun BOTT week

Hi everyone,

I feel like I'm making progress, thanks to all you BOTTers!  Honestly, throughout my day, I often think of some of the things that you guys post, and it makes me feel like I'm not in this alone!

I went to the gym every day this week, and I feel like each day my eating was just a little better.  Now let's hope I can stay committed through the weekend!

CARDIO: Had a good workout today--35 min. cardio & 20 min. upper body & core weight training.

CAFE: 
B--EAS choc protein drink
S--none today (unusual)
L--bean salad from yest. & about 10 soy chips; just a few almonds
S--plan on cottage cheese w/ fruit
D--plan on making Tracy B's buffalo chicken pizza for the 1st time!
S--plan on a protein bar and probably another protein snack (we eat dinner fairly early & I'm up late, so I often have a couple snacks in the evening even when I'm totally on-track).
