Roll Call 1-12-08 Saturday!

[hrgillespie]

Good Morning everyone! I can't believe I am up and starting a roll Call before someone else! Usually roll call is started and way busy before I ever get on here.

My daily mind set these days is to just keep on keeping on .......... I know I say it al the time but man some days it rings truer to me and the past few have been those kinds of days ........ food wise and excercise wise I am keeping on track well. It actually helps me through stress to know I can control this part of my life! It's kind of nice to be in control of something!

I hope you all have a fabulous day ....... I am not doing much ......... going to the dump, taking my kiddos swimming, then home to rest and read a good book I think.

Have a great weekend!!!!!

Good Morning Stacers!!

I'm so glad it is Saturday!! I slept in until 7:30...needed the rest. Let myself get over tired staying up late the night DD got home!! For me being over tired is not a good thing.

Only big plans here is the PATRIOTS game. Planning on cooking some breakfast meals for the week. I really need to improve my breakfast intake.

Have a great day everyone & have some fun today!

Good Saturday Morning, Fellow STACers

Ah, it's a pretty day here today. Stepped on the scale to find 123, and that makes me happy.

Heidi, I am so impressed with the way you have remained focused through trying times. Your perspective is a good one... instead of looking upon the Atkins WOE as a chore, you view it as a way to take charge of yourself and make a change for the better... instead of causing you stress, it helps to relieve your stress. Thank you for being an amazing example of what it truly means to make this a lifestyle.

Glenda, I'm glad you were able to catch up on a little rest. And, I will try to have some fun today.

Plsmachic, enjoy your new bike!

Have a great, legal day!

Morning!

Off to the gym in about an hour. Plan on running 35 min and doing some lower body resistance. The rest of the day is up in the air and I am assuming it will be a whole lotta nothing. I'm grumpy today, these flipping businesses rule our lives and we never do anything as a family.
Weighed in at 15 again, no biggie. I feel pretty dang good (other than the grumpiness...)
Hope everyone has a fabulous Saturday!!

Good Morning Everyone,

Breakfast is going on the stove and I am slugging down my decafe coffee. We have plans to work around the house today and get some little projects done. DD wants to go to the library to check out some books. She loves reading and she wants to learn the keyboard since she got one for Christmas. She teaches herself on everything.

Colleen,
I had to put my foot down in our house so the business wouldn't take over our whole lives. I don't know what your situation is, but with us the business was going on for what seemed like 24/7. I had to make up some rules for myself like quitting at a certain time every day and making sure we have time on the weekend to either go do something or spend time together at home doing things. Even if it is only an hour or two it does go a long way especially in the kids minds. Hope you can work something out. Your have a beautiful family BTW.

Well I have to get going. Breakfast is calling and exercise awaits.

Mitzi Congrats on the weight loss. You are just moving right along.

Jess The puppy is so cute! What kind is it?

Re: Roll Call 1-12-08 Saturday!

Morning, all!

Guess what? I'm DOWN a pound!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!

I'm so jazzed! It's been a long, long time, except for that 1/2 lb gain and loss in a 24 hour period last week.

Today I'm going for a run, then doing errands and getting nails done before I meet dd at the gym for cardio. Should be a good day.

I just want to say that I have a picture of Mitzie on my fridge as inspiration. WOW. I wanna look that hot!

That is one cute puppy, Jess. I'm jealous!

Morning fellow STACers!
Wow, between being sore from work outs this week and a little bored, I managed to fall asleep last night at 10:30! I feel great this morning though, so my body must have been trying to tell me something
Heidi--That is a great way of thinking about this woe! Reading it also helped me when I was craving a smoke too....I'm in control of my life, not the cancer sticks!
Hope everyone has a great day, ya'll look AMAZING!

Re: Roll Call 1-12-08 Saturday!

Good morning! I think you're all amazing! And that's one cute puppy that Jess has. What's it's name?

I'm off to a birthday party for a 3yrs and a 5yrs old. No fears...the cake is safe from me!

Re: Roll Call 1-12-08 Saturday!

Hi everyone just checking in real quick!!! I didnt get up till 11:30am wow, I must have been super tired. Actually i have been having alot of insomnia lately and its hard for me to go to bed sometimes till 3am, and then i get up at 6:20am during the week so i guess some much needed sleep hit me. Well i didnt go to bed until 3am so its not like i got a huge amount of sleep, my regular 8hrs is all but i needed it. Well today we are going to clean clean clean like crazy at my house. We got a lot of things going on and my house has been put on the back burner as far as keeping it spotless. WEll i hope you all have a great Saturday and i will check in later.

Re: Roll Call 1-12-08 Saturday!

Hi everyone!
This morning I was reluctant to get on the scales... even though I walked my 3 miles yesterday and ate legal ( taste so dang good!.... how could I possibly lose?) and I kinda putzed around yesterday and took a nap! (not like me!) so I thought... ack! got on anyways and I am down! 175.3 which is amazing to me! (and that's my new scale which weighs me 4lbs more than the old scale!)

So! am deleriously happy now.... even though I have to go to work and work 2 10 hour shifts this weekend.

And my headache seems to be gone... yeah!

Well, better get a move on... want to take a little walk and then gotta go! Have a great legal day everyone!

Re: Roll Call 1-12-08 Saturday!

Happy Saturday STAC'ers,

Congrats to all you loosers! Well done! Jess that pup is adorable. Is it a Westie?

My new Dr and I decided that we will start with the injection of a steroid into my bad back next Friday- the steroid may help the herniated disc shrink away from the spinal cord. We will no if it works in about 3-4 weeks. So after next Friday I will not be allowed to do any activity not even house work for a few weeks. If that doesn't work then we will talk about the micro discectomy.

Today is a lazy day- I will clean the kitchen and take a shower and then we are going to a movie.

Have a great day!

Julie

Re: Roll Call 1-12-08 Saturday!

If i am not mistaken Jess's pup is a maltese. Possibly A bichon. Anywho, i am also down to 168.4 Holy cow seeing as how i was up to 173.4 I am happy and feeling inspired to stick to plan. I did a 1 mile walk away the pounds workout already this morning. Made it through just fine but tackling the 2 mile seems like too much just yet. Perhaps without the weights. Anywho i have also buddied up with plsmachic to do some text reminders to stay on track...thanks Sister! Yay to all the losers. but most especially to evermind whose relentless efforts to continue with this WOE have been so inspirational to so many of us. You deserve to have the wooshie fairy come and live at your house for the next month. I hope she does
