Fri Check in 1/5

[Outback Jess]

Hey STACers, today is friday a welcomed day!!!
I hope many of you are coming to a good place, into ketosis! When you get into ketosis the energy will come and the pride will rise within and you will probably clean out a closet or two...you will feel excited to be in such a good place and alot of you will kick yourself for putting it off so long.
I hope that happens for many today.

For those who have not reach a new level of happiness or energy, for those who have just been "going along forever" congrats!!!! Find something new to do with your energy...Give more of yourself to the newbies...

Today is a great day! I am going to have a great day, and my WAY OF LIFE, well it's holding my friday together for me!

Hi Outback
Sounds like you're in a great mood today. Have a great weekend. I think the daily check in is a great idea. Very supportive.

Here it's day 1 induction for me. Well, I kind of started yesterday afternoon but I'll call today "Day 1" anyway. I'm getting my grocery shopping list together and looking forward to fitting into my pants again soon.

Jess--gosh you are so upbeat as usual, and so early in the morning! I'm lucky if I'm coherent at this hour, let alone positive!

Steve--wishing you success on induction. It must be rough walking around with no pants on all the time.

Well today is FRIDAY, quite possibly the best day of the week! I have a lighter schedule today, and I'm actually dragging my bf to the gym with me today. Well no, actually HE is the one who suggested it! I am super-excited...I just hope we'll be able to get 2 machines next to each other. There has been a massive influx of new gym members and it's problematic to me. I'm like an old dog who has new dogs invade her territory...needless to say, when I go to the gym, I'm not exactly wagging my tail. And that was a figure of speech. I DO NOT have a vestigial tail.

Have a great day, STACers!

Too funny Julie!

TGIF STACers! Day 5 of my re-induction today. I'm doing so good. DH made potatoes last night and wanted me to "just taste one bite, they are so good." And I adamantly refused. I'm not having cravings, I'm drinking my water and I'm in a positive place. That one little bite would have knocked me out right now. So I'm happy that I had the willpower to resist and he completely understood and had only made enough for him. Though he cooked a great pork steak for me (I don't typically like pork steak)! Love that he cooks part of the week . Tonight he is making steak and we each make our own side dishes.

How is everyone else doing?

Today is my bf's payday and we have a date planned which I won't let him get out of any longer, hehe. Some things I ordered in the mail should be coming too, yaay. I'll probably be out running around most of the day, have a good one Stac'ers!

Hey Julie, I just hope you don't resort to hiking your leg on the machines to "mark" your territory! (heh. heh. Think Lyssie would be proud of me for that one?? )

Steve, glad you're here with us!

Jess, I'm trying to throw some love to the newbies and the new STACers! Paying it forward ADBB style!

Sarah, stick to your guns. You know where that one bite will lead you....straight into the pits of....

Ayria have fun on your date.

Lisa, yay for ketosis!

I, too, am in ketosis. YAY. I'm drinking water, eating well. I'm going to stay here for a few weeks and see if I can get myself down to goal. I've been exercising faithfully and doing well. Today at lunch over in the cafeteria, the head lady was serving. They had baked fish on the menu, but when I got over there it had bread crumbs. I started grumbling about it and she went back and asked the chef to make me a fillet without the crumbs and he did! I was so thankful, I think I told her thank you like 3 times LOL
It was a small fillet, but I was just so happy that they did it at all.
Then I went and made myself a couple turkey "sandwiches" in lettuce leaves. Yummy.

Re: Fri Check in 1/5

Hi Everyone,
Day 9 for me. Everything is going great. I have not weighed myself yet but my clothes are getting looser which is going to be my main way of keeping track for me. The scale is too much of a mind game for me. And a great way for me to self sabotage. In fact I may change my stats from weight to clothing sizes.....lol Just a thought.

Re: Fri Check in 1/5

Happy Friday everybody!

I'm doing good, too -- on track, drinking my water, doing my crunches. I did a lot of walking while on vacation, but since I've been back at work I haven't had time to take my usual walking break. Being on vacation makes my work pile up sky-high. I'm sure that I'll be able to get back to my walking on Monday.

See you all later!

Re: Fri Check in 1/5

Joy, I *am* proud of you for that one. I don't know whether that would actually work though, some of those resolutioners are scary... I think there are a couple who would kick my butt to get my machine!!
