Tuesday - Roll Call

[Scooterjam]

Goooood Morning STACer's!

It's another beautiful day! No Rain, the sun is shining (well it will be in just a couple hours...still early I suppose), the birds are singing, all is somewhat well in the world.

Hope everybody has a great day today, hope that you are drinking your water, and eating right. Myself, overdid it last night a bit. Catching up from the weekend I suppose. Need to refocus and redirect my energies elsewhere.

Anyway, I raise my 74 ounce water jug in a toast.....I still say...

Life is good!

Re: Tuesday - Roll Call

Good morning everyone! Today is 1 week for me and I'm down 6lbs. Of course I'd hoped for more, but 6lbs is still good. I forgot to bring my lunch to work yesterday, but I stopped in a deli for some roast beef for a snack and I bought a pre-made cobb salad from a grocery store for lunch. The salad had lettuce, a sliced hard boiled egg, sliced chicken breast, bacon, blue cheese, a little cheddar and just a little chopped onion. It was perfect, but it was so big I couldn't even finish it. Today I'm planning better! Hope everyone has a great day.

Good Morning Everyone, hope everyones day is a great one. Me myself i made a promise to myself yesterday and for the six week challenge that im in, im not going to weigh or measure myself until its over, i put the tape measure and scale up after i got my initial readings. Hoping for a suprise at the end, but watching that scale like a hawk drives me crazy so i put it on up. Other than that nothing much going on here, going to get my 30 minute walk in this morning with my sister. I have to say when its pretty outside and the temperature is nice i rather be outside excercising instead of some stuffy gym. Well im off to start my day but i hope you all have a great one, will check in later!!!

Re: Tuesday - Roll Call

Good morning....
I have my littlest guy Gabe home today with a cough and snotty nose. The warm weather has been nice but its hard to keep his shirt on and I think its caught up to him. Its been near 80 the past 2 days.

I got in some exercise yesterday BIG TIME! We scoured the neighborhood looking for our 6 mos old Kitten Oreo (He is Gabe's). He got out an unscreened window Sunday night. I called for him all day long and set the other 2 cats out with orders to bring their brother home. lol All they did was bask in the sun on the back deck. I also looked under the deck but didn't see him, I was sure he was lost to us and Gabe was devastated. We gave up finally and my nearly 13 yr old got home and started to look. He went to the deck and yelled that he found him. He had dug a hole so he sat low in the earth right up against the house...he is a mostly black cat with white socks and white on his underside. I never saw him and he refused to come out. The only person he would come to is Gabriel...he knows his boy. lol I was plum wore out.

Not much on my agenda today other than working on housework and school conferences. Its suppose to be another beautiful day today so I hope to get out and enjoy the sunshine some too.

Have a good day!

Re: Tuesday - Roll Call

I'm starting my second week today. I'm off from work the rest of the week to pack and prepare for the renovation of my condo. I've got so much stuff to get rid of. The job seems overwhelming but I've got to start so the painters and floor guys can get in here.

My goal this week is to finish the job, not let the stress lead me to the kitchen, stick with induction, and use portion control to lower my overall calorie intake. I also need to get busy and not spend the whole morning on the computer. It's just too easy to sit here and read and post.

Re: Tuesday - Roll Call

This is my 4th day...again. I'm optimistic though! I have a contest going on at work with 3 of my co-workers to see who can lose the most weight by the end of April. I'm the only one doing Atkins as far as I know.

Re: Tuesday - Roll Call

Good morning everyone! It's a great Atkins day; brought my lunch and snacks and feel PUMPED. I was looking through a catalog last night and saw so many cute clothes that it really got me going. Looking SO forward to being able to wear those things confidently.

rocks!

Re: Tuesday - Roll Call

Hey all!

It's a dreary, rainy day here in MT! UGH! Today is going to be a long day--Parent Teacher Conferences! I don't have any negative ones, everyone is doing quite well, but it's just a long 3 hours, and I still have to be here the whole time, even though I'm the music teacher and not a classroom teacher. Oh well, I have lots of projects I can work on! I'm dressed to the nines, too. I hope that I can handle wearing these shoes all day. I think I traded comfort for fashion...

I have LOTS of food packed as I won't be home until 7:30pm.

Have a great day, STACers!

Re: Tuesday - Roll Call

Good Morning!

Just checking in. Had reported that I didn't lose weight on my Sunday weigh-in, but this morning I definitely feel thinner so maybe next Sunday's number will be better. (not going to obsess on it, though)

Kind of rainy outside, so I will be riding my stationary bike inside today. Also, I need to make myself start doing some dumbell work on my upper body. I seem to be developing "bat wings" on my flabby arms... gross!

Let's kick butt, Everyone!

Re: Tuesday - Roll Call

I love the way you think Mitzimarie!!!

Re: Tuesday - Roll Call

Good morning everyone!! It is another beautiful sunny day in Michigan and I am stuck in classes all day. Will get alot of stairs and walking in today though. Yesterday was a pretty good day. Finally got all my water in, it's such a struggle for some reason. Hope everyone has a great positive day!!

Re: Tuesday - Roll Call

Afternoon all! I'm into my third week and doing well. I'm trying not to weigh too often, but my watch is getting loose around my wrist, so I'll take that as a good sign for today. I was going to get up and pull up a flower bed and replant it this morning, but it was pouring down rain, so that didn't happen. I'm working an extra shift this evening, so will pack my bag of WATER and goodies to eat and take it with me. Hope everyone has a great Atkins evening.
