4.6 pounds lost this week ...

Today is my Friday thank goodness. It has been a rough week. Tomorrow I go to Edmonton for an appointment (mammogram) so that will take up most of my day.

A co-worker is leaving us tomorrow, today is her BBQ, not sure how I will handle it but I will perservere. I have decided that I can have a full hamburger patty, no bun and lots of veggies & water. Marj brought me a piece of cheesecake too, which is 5 points, thankfully I have enough that I can have it.

Day 3 of my challenges went well. I was able to get 30 min on my bike in, it's been a long time since I dusted that off. Tomorrow will be my 1 restaurant meal for the week and I think I am going to Olive Garden. Depends on how I feel after the appointment. I am going to go shopping at Superstore though as I want to make 2 new dishes this week and our grocers don't carry some of the items.

WI last night, and I was down 4.6 so I am quite happy with that. Didn't stay for the meeting as I don't like the leader who was doing it last night. One more week and I have to re-new again, good thing Wednesday is payday next week.

Have to get back on a schedule next week as well as I have been slacking while the boss is a
way.

Week 2 begins ...

I'm definately not in the right headspace today. I guess it was all the Mother's Day festivities and such. Alex did text me in the morning which was nice but not having a mom to call or send flowers to really hits home. I put my mom's picture as my profile picture on Facebook and got lots of compliments on it. The only one I have is one of her in her wedding dress. She was a very beautiful woman. No wonder she was taken early in her life.


Today is lunch crunch. Tennielle was right about our bottoms hurting all weekend. But I guess that is what lunges and squats do to a person. Wonder what today holds in store. Not that I will ever like exercise but I don't mind this one. It is quite easy and it is only a half an hour 3 times a week.


My eating has to be modified as well. No more eating out all the time. Just once or twice a week. There is no excuse why I can not make something at home and have it after work or when I get time.


I went to see Thor last night. It was actually pretty good, I am glad I went. Well after the fiasco last night with Holly I needed something to calm me down. Sometimes I wonder why I work the 2nd job and I am hoping that after the wedding in 2012 I won't have to work it. Of course it will all depend on my raises at the full time job.


Speaking of the full time job, I had better get at it.
