Re: Thurday Morning - Roll Call

good morning everyone. it's my tom too and i learned something about myself yesterday (again)...and that is that i am truly a sugar addict. i am able to keep myself moving forward and away from it until this time of the month...then it's like i am a rabid dog and i can't think until i get my sugar fix...and, it's an unconscious thing at times...for example, yesterday i ran to target to get a few things and before i knew it, i was eating a candy bar...which i really don't do that often. so, rather than kick my butt for it, i simply took inventory and realized how i could have counteracted that sugar attack. i now have a plan...i wrote it down and have it posted where i can see it. i am determined to overcome this sugar addiction no matter where i am in my cycle. this is my happy thought, "i have the power to change my life through getting and keeping my self healthy. it's all within my control." i love this woe! hope everyone has a great day.

Morning everyone! Scooter, it would be great if you could play for all of us someday. We would sit quiet for 3 hours and enjoy every minute, I promise.

OK Sandy!!! Now give the whoosie fairy back!!! No fair I say.... Sandy stole the fairy!
Seriously though, I'm so happy for you!! Yes, Sandy...31 pounds! Way to go girl.

Lisa, nice to see you again. Where you been? You have to report in whether you want to or not! lol...

Sheepie, you make me hungry for Pizza. You did good.

Speedy, both of us need more water. I'm not doing good on that either. I'll drink up to you today...lol..and you can drink up to me...

.. hope y'all are having a grand day today.

Re: Thurday Morning - Roll Call

Good Morning everyone!

I hugged my daughter this morning...originally it was because she was a sweetheart and surprised me with breakfast and coffee in bed. And it isn't even Mothers Day! She is a great kid.

She made me a 3 egg omelette with two kinds of cheese, spinach, green pepper, jalepeno pepper and onion then finished it off with hot sauce. Yum...if that didn't give me a kick start!

WTG Sandy....its amazing how that little number on a scale can transform our emotions and way of thinking. It soooooooo powerful. GREAT job!

I am reading the book The Secret, about 1/4 of the way through so I am incorporating the power of positve thinking into my life. You attract what you feel or think.

Anyway keep it legal everyone!

Re: Thurday Morning - Roll Call

Summer, better, but again not enough vegetables. Most of your carbs are to come from veggies. You need to have breakfast EVERY day. Your %'s are good.

Sweet, what a great daughter you have!

Re: Thurday Morning - Roll Call

Good Morning,

This week is moving along pretty smooth. I decided to stay on induction another week until this coming Monday since I was a bad Deb at my husband's reunion last weekend.
Scooter thank you for the excellent "kick off" post this morning. I'm sorry that it wasn't the greatest of circumstances for you but the most important thing is out of all of that you touched a couple of people with your music and that is what it is all about.

Sandy you are awesome, how great is that you are in the 250's. You came back strong girl! What a great week you have had.

Speedie and Mickkey I am in the need more water club. It is the hardest thing for me. I am trying to train myself to get a drink of water every time I go into the kitchen. I have to take it in little steps so I have a small glass and just fill it up and drink it at the sink. A whole bottle seems daunting, it sits there looming on my desktop and calling to me.

Hope everyone has a great legal day. And I am hugging all of you right now because everyone in my family is asleep or out of reach right now. I guess I could hug my little cocker spaniel!

Huggin' Deb

Re: Thurday Morning - Roll Call

I almost forgot to do my morning roll call check in!!! Our computers have been acting up and the more people that access the system the more it boggs down until finally it just stops. The last couple of days have been frustrating beyond words. So, I got to work at 6:00 and jumped on the computer, trying to get as much done as I could before the system crashed. But it looks like it might not crash today. They had to reset a bunch of stuff at the central office in Balitmore, so hopefully I can put in a full day of work instead of thumb twiddling.

Food intake is holding steady. Didn't eat my salad for lunch yesterday, so when I got home, I had to decide if I wanted to eat the steamed broccoli with cheese my hubby fixed with the blackened pork chops or the chef salad I skipped at lunch. (I did eat lunch, just not the salad) I opted for the chef salad simply because I've told myself I need at least one salad a day, regardless of anything else I might eat. Right????

My happy thought for today? THE COMPUTERS ARE WORKING! (So far) Great message Scooter. I've been so depressed lately that I've almost forgotten how to smell the flowers. I'm looking forward to the weekend. I'll try to find something fun to do just for myself. Maybe finally watch "Seraphim Falls". I like Liam Neeson, and kinda like Pearce Brosnan, but I'm watching it for Michael Wincott...one of the villians...like duh...is he ever anything else???? LOL

Re: Thurday Morning - Roll Call

Hello fellow STACers!

Sandy, I am so happy for you. On a roll for sure. Glad to see your boosted morale.

Still waiting for the "leaner's" scale to show under 180...might have to hope for my mini goal date but that's fine.

Happy thought....going to pick up dear dancing daughter next weekend and will watch the preview show of the musical I designed the set for next Tues. Hey, that's 2 happy thoughts, isn't it????? Lucky me!

Have a great healthy huggy kinda day!
Candy

when i get the sugar attack , i eat things like dom's cheesecake or if i must i eat sugar free candy, it's actually not that bad...i know it's not allowed, but it's better than a REAL candy bar. trader joes has the best dark chocolate sugar free candy in the world....it's so creamy, you can not tell it's sugar free....

NOW she's willing to share... ............ok, I'll take her!

Summer, have you tried posting your menu up on the "Check my menu" forum?
You will get lots of excellent advice there. Good to see you here every day, keep coming back!

Scooter, a podcast would be awesome! Something to think about. We could have a STAC party.

Re: Thurday Morning - Roll Call

Hi everyone! Up really late this am due to insomnia last night... ack! so frustrating! but confess I had a cup of coffee a little too late in the day. Totally ramped me up like a hit of meth... not that I've ever tried meth mind you...
Scooter! Great message... no one around to hug but teenage son... kissed the top of his head... and ran. lol.
Congrats Sandy! You go girl! Whoo hoo! how wonderful 2lbs... that's so awesome!
Well, gotta go exersize, work is looming...have to leave in a couple of hours.
Made an awesome lasagne yesterday... sooooo good... with ricotta cheese and layers of meat, thin sliced zuccini, fresh parsley... sooo good.
