Hump day check in! December 6

[RachelnLa]

Morning everyone!

Why on my day off I can jump out the bed and spring into action? LOL

Exercise is done, 2 cups of water down... I'm checking out ads online and will hit the road to hopefully wrap up some shopping on my day off! Whoo hoo.

I tell ya, I totally enjoyed my smoked salmon yesterday. So much, that I had it again for supper. It's soo good with Jicama! MMMM

I picked up the rental yesterday - 2007 aerostar mini van. Really nice. Still waiting to hear on my truck. Time to get dressed and get the kids out the door so my day can begin

Hope everyone has a wonderful day!

Hope the rental works out for you, Rachel.

My exercise is done and I'm ready to go. Just hoping that I can keep up with the boys today. They have so much energy this winter. And I don't care how long you take them outside and run them around, its just not the same as the summer. I have to work hard not to lose my patience with them. I have to remember that if I'm bored of what we are doing (being in the house, playing with same toys) then they most certainly are bored. Perhaps some genius will strike me today and we will do something fantastic and out of the ordinary.

I used to be a preschool teacher. Why is it so hard to entertain my own kids????

Hope everyone has a great day, and accomplishes what they're looking to do.

Good Morning,
Thanks for the welcomes yesterday. I actually jumped out of the bed today and its day 5 which has been the day after my fall in this past year. I feel great and it's cold!! So, I hope everyone has a great day. I know mine will be busy. I do have one question. Maybe it isn't for this board but I just was wondering how you all go so many pics in your sig. I tried updating mine a little and it said to many pics. Is there something I need to do?
Well off to dress to kiddos and scramble to work.
God Bless
Happy Hump Day.
Nichole

Hi All ! Day 3 here! Feeling good Probably beause I work so dang much I don't have time to think about anything! Toda is a short day for me. 12-630, so I am off to donate plasma this morning and then hit the gym after work. I just found out I can use the YMCA up the road for free because I am in the military!! WOOHOO!

Good morning,
I'm up and getting ready for work. Yesterday was a good day eating wise allthough, I could have killed for the homemade chocolate chip cookies. Rough when they keep offering them to you so nicely. I kept telling myself just one would knock me out of ketosis and to a start over point. So this morning I made a gingerbread flax cookie, I nibbled on it and it is different, but I'll have it as a snack later at work. Might prefer it more as a muffin so I guess I'll experiment with that soon.
Anyone experement with magnesium as a supplement. On Atkins I get to the point that I can't sleep at night, but the magnesium makes me sleep very well. Very relaxing. Just curious.
Hope everyone has a great day.

Hi, everyone! Looks like everyone is getting a great start today. I see a couple of new folks. Welcome! This is a great place for support.

I've been in San Antonio for a week for work. I am finally settled here again and almost completely caught up. The trip was great. It went very well. NO CHEATING!!! YEAH!! It was all so tempting - looked good and smelled good. I resisted. Need to catch up writing in all my challenges.

Hope everyone has a great day!

Re: Hump day check in! December 6

Goodmorning everyone!!! =) What a wonderful day it is indeed. My first day off where I can just spend time being by myself and not have to go out with friends and all that jazz. I really need this because I can't stand being around this one friend of mine any longer. He's become a major jerk without realizing it and I even told him that, too. Some of the things he says makes him come off as a jerk and it offends me and he doesn't even know why. So, I've been ignoring him for a while now, thank goodness. And NO, I do not like him in any sort of way, ewww, gross.

Well, I will be heading to the gym around 10 ish or so, that way there won't be that many people there, so I can get to the machines that I want to get to. Man, last time I went, it was packed, so yah.

And I also have some wonderful pork pieces that I can cook up and eat, YUM YUM!!! My parents are finally helping me with this way of life and going out and buying the foods for me that I need. Then again, they are also doing this way of life, so it helps a lot. =)

Good luck today everyone! I know you can survive hump day!

Hey everybody, soo it seems like some wonderful new people are connecting. If I don't know you or have not met you, hi I'm jess...Welcome to STAC, come by and post often...there is sooo much on these boards to do...Do you have a journal yet? Head over to journal chats, where you can write about your journey and others will pop in and write in your journal... Journal Stats is where you write and log your stats, and nobody can write in your journal but you. WE can read, but we can't touch...
RachelinLa has a great stats journal, where she is seriously pursuing working her journey successfully this time!!!
Hey have a great day!

Good morning all! Wow, a lot of activity here this morning -- that's great!

Nothing new with me -- everything's going well.

I WILL be walking today -- won't forget -- I've got a post-it note on my computer. My walking time in the a.m. is 10:30 California time, so that will be in one hour!

Est--that is AWESOME! CONGRATS!!!!

Yes, it's so cool to see so many faces, and a lot of new ones at that!

I'm finally checking in--it's been a busy day here, and now it's my lunch "hour" that only really lasts about 15-20 minutes. I've had 64oz of water today, going for the gallon. I'm excited to go to Kickboxing class tonight, I'm really ready for a tough workout! Keep up the GREAT work STACers...sounds like everyone is on top of their game today!
