Good Morning!

Tess, have a great day. Sould be wonderful out. Good for you keeping on track while you are out and about.

Im feeling a little better. Didnt have to wince as much when my feet hit the floor to get out of bed. Im still sore, but Im moving better today. Was in the car a while yesterday and needed a hand to get out! I'll be hitting the gym tonight. Just going to walk on the treadmill...I should be walking outside since its supposed to be in the 80s today, but I'll go to the gym with the husband.

Eats for today:

Coffee w/ cream
banana and greek yogurt w/ PB2
Im feeling like Subway today. Turkey, no cheese, guacamole and veggies
Pear and cheese stick
Quest bar on the way to the gym
Not sure about dinner, maybe Lean Cuisine steamer bag

I moved my weigh in day to Fridays instead of Saturday. Hopefully I'll have some good news to post tomorrow. Would love to see some movement.

Mary:

I love your new avatar too.  I had to look twice to make sure who I was reading.  We just got to Nashville a little while ago and I made the first mistake and ordered grill chicken from KFC.  Chicken was too dry and needless to say, it came up.  Now I feel yucky.  Hope tomorrow is better.

hi Alesia.  I love your new avatar too.  I think we are all rockin!

I was able to get outside and play with th kids then take a walk with the family last night.  We only walked about 30 minutes at the pace of an 18-month-old but it was a walk!  Hope to do the same today. Tried my first Quest bar last night--brownie warmed in the microwave for 20 seconds...wow, was it rich and chocolately. Not sure which bar I'll try tongiht

B - protein coffee
S- protein shake
L - tuna with tomatoes, celery, onion, mayo
S - 2 hard-boiled eggs, 1/2 c chopped veggie salad
D - 4 oz chicken breast with sauteed mushrooms and onions
S - protein bar, brand and flavor to be determined by my cravings at the time

It's almost the weekend!

Good job on the walk.  I never run a race, I walk with the turtles.

I had a good night sleep and I feel a little bit better.  I decided that hunger is not an emergency and I can control it. It does not need to control me. 
I have to go to a presentation and networking tonight, so working day will be a short - and long at the same time. 

eats:
coffee+ coconut milk
quest bar
more coffee (again - hunger is not an emergency)
soup/stew and 1/2 flat-out wrap
tea... 1/2 quest bar (if needed)
some snacks at networking event (I hope they have food I can eat)
LNS: beef roast..

Sleep always lets me view the next day in a new light if I slept well.  Make that food understand whose the BOSS!

Morning everyone.

Was very worried this morning...my blood pressure was really high, it's come down however, I have doctors appointment to follow tomorrow and we will have a conversation over this...it seems to happen one ot twice a week now and I don't feel it right and I am on high blood pressure med's now.  I am seem to pike really early in the more.  So, I am still feeling a little off.

The stove repair guy blew me off again yesterday and now his somewhere in my building and wants to come this afternoon...well he is just going to have to try me another day.  I am not up to his messing about in my kitchen and I am not feeling well.
