Is it good that it is your second to last day with your job?

And yay for the video guy! He had better like Green Day though.

Re: random thoughts....

thanks for the rep point!!! can you believe I just noticed that... got to get in gear and do some more races... I've done 2 5k's.. and the 6K this spring..

slowly but surely... I was feeling a little defeated.. like I wasn't being successful... and weighed today... down to 169.8... and suddenly I got excited again...

I realized that while I've not been perfect... since my Dr. Appt. on 2-15, I've lost a solid 25 pounds! that's not bad... yeah... I wanted 10 pounds a month... but I want a lot of things....

when you feel like a failure... sit down and do the math... look back... reflect on what you HAVE done... and it feels good...

I love this place!

My boss gave me a $25 dollar gift card to Olive Garden today. I was appreciative even though I know I couldn't use it, until I looked at the back where it stated "Also redeemable at Red Lobster or Lone Star Steakhouse".

Bring on the beef!

Re: random thoughts....

way cool on your gift certificate... but I was thinking.... even olive garden has the soup and salad bar....

lucky for you!

Re: random thoughts....

I'm also excited because my new, hard cover copy of DANDR 2002 is coming today. I had a pretty beat up copy that my mom and I read years ago.

I hope no one in my apartment steals it!

True but come on, how could you go to OG and not partake in chicken Alfredo?

Plus I have my g/f ordering her steaks medium rare now and she never misses an opportunity to go to a steakhouse

Re: random thoughts....

would you believe I've never BEEN to an Olive Garden? My sis is a OG NUT... but my hubby is a steak man... so we're Ruby Tuesdays, outback, longhorn's kinda people....

I still have to have my steak medium well though... I can't get used to eating it 'less cooked' than that..

Re: random thoughts....

Hey Peytonn.. Congrats on that weight loss!! that is fantastic..I actually was looking back on my own personal journal, and figured out how much weight I have lost since January as well.. the problem is that I cheated a few times and I have had to re lose the weight.. but you know what, I was proud of that as well because the old me would have said forget it, after the first cheat, and then resort to what I do best and give up..but this time I went right back on each time.. and lost it back..that tells me that this is a great wol for me...

[Peytonn]

Re: random thoughts....

thanks... and congrats on your progress as well! I've not been perfect... if there had been NO slip-ups... wonder where I'd be now... but I'm getting better at resisting the downfalls... and yeah.. there have been some UPS on the scale too..

but when I think.. I started in the 190's... then 180's... then 170's... it just feels so good to finally be in the 160's...

150's!!! HERE I COME!~

Re: random thoughts....

Well I think that life happens..and what I learned about myself is as valuable as the numbers on the scales going down...to be able to cheat and then to pop back on, forgive and move on, was the best thing I learned doing Atkins...not that I am advocating that... OMG when I can put a 1 in front of my weight, I am going to shout it from the rooftops.. and you know what, I always tell people up front that I am on Atkins..He should get all the credit when it comes to me.. congrats to you...

Re: random thoughts....

it's funny... when it first gets into the next digit... I'm more meticulous about eating than ever... because I dont' want to jump back up to the higher digits again...
