Good Morning Botts:

I am very tired this morning and not quite bushy tailed to start this week off.  Had a good weekend but just did not get enough sleep in.  My eats for today are:

Breakfast:  Quest Brownie Bar

Snack:  Banana

Lunch:  Quest Brownie Bar

Snack:  Cheese & Crackers

Dinner:  Beef Quesadilla

Snack:  100 calorie Popcorn Probably

Going out to dinner with my family to celebrate my son's upcoming birthday.  He will be 18th on Wednesday.

I hope everybody week starts off great and continues through the end.  Remember those vits and fluids today! 

Tess, Isn't this audit week? Sorry you're not starting your week well rested. I watched TV way to late last night. Only one more episode of the Breaking Bad series. I have enjoyed that show. Always full of plot twists and surprises.

So glad I made a pot of soup yesterday. I love knowing I don't have to come home and cook. I've got a couple of fall decorating projects I'd really like to work on. I should be able to get a jump start on those tonight.

Eats today are planned out. Vitamins and meds for the week are in my little green reminder thingy. I'm feeling pretty accomplished this morning. Now that the weather has cooled up I'll be walking during my lunch hour. I'm loving having my energy back.

Hope everyone's week is off to a good start.

It is Iris.  And now, my boss wants me to do a punch list on a house a hour away from the office.  That will be at least 4 hours lost.  I can see I will be taking the books home with me this week to finish up before Friday.  And the hits just keep on coming!!!!!  Your soup does sound delish.  I am waiting for the first cold spell and going to make a pot of chili with some homemade muffins (carbs galore).  Have a good day.

I did a few stupid things over the weekend and as I result my BS drooped..  due to my RH.. 

It was a combination of things..   wine, some carbs, not enough cortisone... etc. 

My goals this week are: 

• no wine
• limit carbs 
• slow down eating and really chew my food ( I have tendency to eat too fast and not chew enough) 

Sorry Hala.  I tend to push the envelope some too.  This weekend I had a wonderful little burger at Chili's and decided to have one teeny little wedge of flat bread pizza and yup, you guess it, the whole meal came back to surface.  DON"T PUSH THE ENVELOPE!!!!!

I'm doing the 5DPT this week.  Suffering from carb withdrawal already!!!  Lord help me!
