  • Roll Call Friday, March 7th!

    Hellooooo STACR's!!!

    It seems my insomnia is not gone yet, but I think it is because I took the $600 I won from the Biggest Loser at work and did some shopping this evening, and I am so jazzed about what I bought and what sizes I bought that I can't sleep!!! I was so nervous trying on some size 8 jeans at the Gap, and the saleslady was like 'you need a 6, those are falling off you.' And it ended up I did need a 6, and it was roomy even! Gotta love those long and lean jeans.

    Anyway, got a few pencil skirts, a strapless dress and 2 pairs of pants at JCrew, some sweaters and fitted button downs at Banana, and a whole slew of cute skinny belts/shoes/accessories.

    Does anyone need size L or XL (fit 10-14) scrubs, or sizes 8-14 work pants/tops/dresses (all nice, Banana Republic, Ann Taylor, or Gap)?? If so, PM me, would be happy to send some your way.

    Sandy how did the meat turn out?

    I hope everyone has a fabulous day. Remember to PLAN ahead so you can stay on track, and don't eat to feed your emotions! Starve those emotions and eat for nourishment only! Drink up, and luxuriate in the delicious foods we are able to choose from!!

    Have a great one STACR's!!

    YAY PARTY!!! WELL DONE YOU!!

    No wonder you are excited - that is amazing - size 6 YIPPPPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

    I am also happy as down another pound. Am wearing another top that I haven't been able to wear for two years! It's like opening a new wardrobe as I have clothes with their labels on still! My jeans are getting loose but that's OK as I have three smaller sizes in my wardrobe LOL!!

    I am going out tonight with a girlfriend. We are going to a bistro so I should find some food I can eat. I'm going to have a high fat day so that I am not too hungry tonight.

    Have a great day everyone.

      Good Morning.. Congrats Party on getting into 6's... I never wore that size when I was skinny!..lol The meat was good.. I didn't put everything on it like the recipe called..I thought I had Chili powder here but I didn't...and the Cumin I didn't have either.. So it tasted a lot like roast..but it did have a little spiceness to it.. I know the Chili powder would have made it hotter what about the Cumin? Cause I don't like really spicy food.. I will fix it again since I have 3 more roast in the freezer..lol Especially since yesterday was not a good food day according to the way my stomach felt.

      I am feeling better today...still have a headache and I am hoping with a couple doses of Sudafed it will feel better.. Still feel blah.. Why oh why do I keep falling off of Atkins and having to go through this Induction Flu..you would think i would learn!

      I am off work again today the bus anyway...I have hardly worked this week Seriously..I have done 8 hours...!..lol

      Tonight I do work at the camp and already have a plan..although tonight is the hard night cause my boss does a lot of the pie baking... I will probably end up making a Coconut Custard too that thing has 7 cups of sugar in it! But we are having Italian chicken and there is always a Big Salad bar...

      I am going out this morning to run a few errands.. Get my hair cut and get some color to color it myself

      Oh forgot to say I am 2 more lbs down.. I love the initial drop in weight.. 5 pounds to go to get to my lowest.

      Have a good day!

        party Congrats on winning the contest & how exciting to get size 6 jeans!!! Sounds like an awesome shopping adventure. I'm sure the excitement played into your not sleeping. Have a great day!

        zara Yeah for more pounds lost! Have fun with your friend this evening. Great plan to eat well today...have some fat! Can you find out what the Bistro serves prior to going??? You'll be able to plan better!

        sandy Congrats on being back on plan & the losses thus far. You know the flu symptoms will pass. Don't even make eye contact with that pie! Stick to what you know is safe for you to have!

            Way to go Party!! I can't wait till I go to try a smaller size on and they fall off of me! Sounds like you had a ball shopping!

            I'm taking it easy today. Did legs and back workout this morning, plus ab ripperX. Also got TOM this morning and I'll probably never say this again, but I'm glad! I'm hoping the whooshie fairy pays a visit afterwards. TGIF! I'm so looking forward to Sunday(rest day)! Have a good one STACer's!!

                    Happy Friday!!!! A big congratuations to PartyTrouble!! And also to everyone who is doing so wonderful! I am sooooo glad it's Friday. Went to dinner last night at Provino's for my step-daughter's 18th b-day. I was stressing all day about what to eat. I ended up with shrimp scampi and veggies. However, it seemed like the sauce wasn't just butter. It looked a little heavy so I tried my best to eat around stuff. My weigh in day is Sunday but I just had to know if I gained from that meal. Nope - down a half a pound! Whew!

                    Have a wonderful day! Going to a hockey game tonight! Go Thrashers!

                      Morning, all, and happy Friday! woo hoo!

                      I don't know why I'm so excited about the weekend, as I have about 4 enormous projects that have to be finished by Sunday night, which I've been postponing for several weekends.........eeeek! But I am looking forward to being home, sleeping in a bit, and just being alone. Dh works this weekend, so does dd, and frankly, I get tired of being with a lot of people after teaching kids for a full week - the silence is good. And then I'm always happy when dh comes home - I still have a huge crush on him, lol

                      Everyone sounds like they're doing wonderfully well. It's good to hear/see! We have a lot of strengths, don't we? And commitment, and motivation. With our added prior experience on this woe, we have no option but to succeed!

                      Make today meaningful. Do one nice thing for a complete and total stranger.

                        Re: Roll Call Friday, March 7th!

                        I am so running late.... kids have a birthday party this morning at a skating rink... I REALLY need a shower.

                        I strayed last night from this WOE. I made a decision and to me - it was worth it. I had a steak and cheese from a place which honestly - makes it the best I have ever had one. And usually I would say without the bun - however I didn't. I felt like having the entire effect of the sandwich. And I'm bloated by 2 lbs and I don't care. To me - it was worth it. I understand the choice I made and was willing to live with it. It didn't cause binge eating which is what I was more worried about.... and I'm right back eating the way I should. My thought is that I could sit around and mope and beat myself up.... but it won't help in the end. Could I have done this earlier? Nope I really don't think so.

                        Everyone - have a wonderful day. I stink - gotta take a shower!

                            Happy Friday girls!!!

                            Today marks one full week on plan and what a huge difference seven days makes Now that my eating is back on track and the worst of induction flu has passed, I plan to kick up the exercise starting tomorrow. I'm actually looking forward to it!

                            Party, that was some shopping trip! Congrats!!!

                            Zara, enjoy your dinner tonight! Don't you love shopping in your own closet? I too got into a sweater today I haven't been able to wear in ages. *w00t*

                            Sandy, you're doing awesome, even with the stresses you have had this week. GREAT JOB

                            Beanpole, TOM is due here too at any second. Making it thru a cycle without my hormones going amok will be a big deal so I'm looking forward to it as well. Think they're gonna get white jackets for both of us?

                            Maxine your dinner sounds yummy! I LOVE shrimp! (adds to shopping list)

                            I'm hoping to only work half a day today. My housework is caught up and I did major grocery shopping last night too. So I think this afternoon will be time for a bit of "ME" time. Bubble bath, mani, pedi, deep condition my hair, etc. AHHHHHHHHH

                            Hope everyone has an awesome day!

                            TGIF!!!!
