Roll Call 4/6/09 Monday!

[SandyL2002]

Good Morning Everyone! Guess I will start the Roll Call... I have a busy day..

I have to go to the Ortho at 9, Chiro at 10 and then head to my new job... I am nervous..

I fixed a Breakfast Quiche for all week so I have an easy breakfast... Today I am going to take a Salad for lunch...

I am only working 4 or 5 hours so I will be good with just a salad

Have a wonderful day!

Good Morning! I had last week off for spring break so I am back to work today! We went to the beach yesterday and both my son and I are burnt to a crisp! Sandy, your morning sounds like my last week. The only day I didn't have a appt was Monday! Was hoping I could put in a few applications at various places but not too many jobs out there! We are having major lay offs where I work at. I feel like I am on american idol when Thursday / Friday comes and I am safe for another week! Hope everyone has a good Monday! Everyone continue to think positive! We can do this!

Good Afternoon everyone! It's a beautiful, sunny day here in Germany and I will be enjoying it with the kids outside later on today.

I've been missing the boards for the past few weeks! The kids ended up sick... AGAIN! It's been pretty much a recurring thing since November. My kids seem to be taking turns every week and I'm hoping they will soon stay healthy, since the warm weather is here now! So, with that being said, I've had to put off any challenges that I signed up for last month and even put off going to the gym. I was probably at the gym a total of a week last month, and that isn't good at all! So, I'm hoping this month will be different, especially since I need to start buckling up and get some weight loss done before July! I'm hoping to be in Onederland by that time!

Have a great week!

Sandy, I must have missed a posting. Last I heard you didn't get the trailer park job, but sounds like you got something else. Congrats! I retire next year and get to find a real job too. Hopefully there will be some.

Not too much going on here. My son has a ball game tonight and my daughter has soccer practice. Looks like my wife and I will have to divide and conquer unless the rain continues. Stay focused everyone!

Good morning STACers! I am busy today too! I have to go to the grocery store now and later I will be babysitting my granddaughter.

I'm still maintaining and doing well although I still need to lose 8 pounds to goal.

Have a great day everyone!

Morning all! It's snowing here in beautiful Michigan, I guess mother nature didn't get the memo that its APRIL. Grrrr. I'm not weighing because it's the dreaded TOM....phooey. Hope everyone has a great day...without SNOW.

Happy Monday STAC'ers

It is cold this morning, but it will warm up today (enough to get the roads messy). I just love break up time (sarcasm). The snow and ice make such a nasty mess.

I have a very busy day planned and even more so tomorrow. Sunday was great. I got a lot of exercise and went out to eat with several of my friends. I did not get home till evening.

Sandy- congrats on the job I must have missed that post as well.

I too am feeling a little bloated. I think my body is trying to do the TOM even if I wont let it. Just stay off the scale for a week and you will feel better

Have a great day gang!

Its cold here today too, and i'm in texas!! well its 40 degrees which is probably not very cold to some of you yankees but its frickin freezing to me, especially for april.
I just want to do a happy dance, because after quite a struggle with PISS my 2-3 weeks, I'm down a little over 4 pounds in the last 7 days!! *dancedance* tom is due next week though, so i'll celebrate while I can, i'm sure you'll see me in here next week whining about a gain lol

Hey all. I didn't get around to posting yesterday...kept pretty busy. I got up, did a workout, drove an hour out to spend the day with a friend, then drove home and went to see Fast and Furious with another friend...and then straight to bed. It was a great day.

I'm up a few pounds on the scale. I started taking 1/2 my water pill dosage because of electrolyte problems last week and it's showing. I'm not going to sweat it...but friday's weigh in might not be pretty. I'm going to the cardiologist today to get hooked up for a 48 hour heart monitor. There's some scary stuff going on. I'm having these episodes in the AM after waking that I can't explain. Now watch...it probably won't happen while I have the monitor on. It did happen this morning...but it's the first time since last monday.

From yesterday's Roll call...

Congrats on making your first goal, BurnFat!

Welcome back, Kerri!

TJ...great news on the roof! Glad you can still afford to feed the family!

Loopie...I haven't read the book in years, but I remember how understanding the science totally made it easier to do the plan. I'm doing fine with the plan now, but I bet I could use a refresher.

Debby...welcome back to you as well. I'm right with you in knowing for MYSELF how this WOE makes me FEEL...and knowing how carbs make me feel like poo...but I've fallen off of false-re-starts many many times over the years. I'm going strong right now (5 weeks in) but I couldn't tell you what makes this time different than any other. The most important thing is to do a clean induction to get past the cravings. All whole and natural foods...no atkins shakes or bars or anything. Life is easier when you get past the cravings!

And from today...

Hey Becky...I'm a Becki too! Your job sounds like mine right now. It's so sad to watch my company go through this. I've been here almost 12 years and have never seen anything like this.

Have a great LC day, ya'll!

Quick check in! On plan, just home for lunch really quick and the dogs have to go potty. I'll try to catch up tonight!
