It is an oatmeal day out of town....yum
my weight has not budged ...
At trivia last night Ate half a pizza with jeff.(60 oz of low alcohol beer)

My neck is better just taking time to recover.
I injured it by cracking my neck...sigh
started taking glucosamine chondritin for joint pain.
They are huge pills.





we sat with some friendly people as there were not any other tables there open for us to sit. They were a lot of fun. They are school teachers and win quite often. They have been saving up all of the gift cards that they win to throw a party and invited us to join them it is so nice of them.

They threw a bridal shower party for the bar tender when she was engaged to be married. I went to that. They really went all out for her.
It was so nice to be included.We sat around together in this air conditioned room. Just chit chatting. I could be friends with these women.


I ordered another food box kit to cook 3 meals with all the ingredients and it is due to be delivered on next friday.
I hope they turn out good. I forget what I ordered.

finished all of the alcohol in the house....trying not to drink this week until friday.
my weight is up 183. Not happy about that. But insanity is hoping for change when doing the same thing.
Eating and drinking equals weight gain...period.

I'm glad that you got the opportunity to sit with those nice women. I hope that you get the opportunity to do so again in the future, and can build on the relationship with them. I know you have been looking for more friends, and those women sound lovely

[bizi]

Thank you kay.
It is nice of them to include us in their party this sunday. It is a pool party but I am not even thinking about getting into a bathing suit.
Thank you for your support.

They are school teachers and are back to teaching....wonder if they will be at trivia on friday night?

Had lunch with my sweetheart at sandras health food cafe. Had grass fed beef and cabbage soup and a side of chard. Took half of it home because it was too much food.
Saw a total of 3 clients today so it was a light day.
Well I made it thru the witching hour.(alcohol free)
What helped the most because I worked late and was hurrying to get home so we could eat dinner. Hubby cooked chicken with coconut curry with mixed veggies.
It was so delicious!
I am proud of myself for going to the gym and walking
on the tred mill for 3.1 miles a 5K
Then 10 minutes on the hydro massage bed, it helped with my sore back but I don't think it helped my neck at all. Next time I will avoid the neck area.
So my goal is to be alcohol free thru thursday and then drink on friday at whole foods in the bar while we play trivia. I think I can do this.
Today I had 10 spots frozen off my face, dark spots and bumps( non cancerous areas), strictly cosmetic....They will turn dark colors and form a scab that will in several weeks fall off. I am a MAJOR picker.
This will really really be hard for me to leave them alone.
I may end up cutting all of my fingernails off, I could leave my thumbs intact as I need them for work. Getting ready to watch seinfeld with my sweetie.
All in all it was a great day.

That does sound like a great day!
I applaud you for doing all those good things for yourself
I hope that you can manage not to pick at things

I think that setting realistic goals could help you manage your drinking better, so I like your plan of staying AF until Friday's trivia night. I know that you can do it

[bizi]

thank you kay.
AF tonight.
For lunch I Had sea bass couvillion ( Coo -v-yawn)I think that I spelled it wrong though. That is how you say it.
The fish had many bones and was fishy unlike most sea bass experiences I have had before. Had that over tabouli with chard and coleslaw
good lunch. Ate with a friend so that was good.

Back to sandras to pick up some talapia. I bought 3 pounds of it for $30 that will make 12 servings. That is $2.50 a serving.

For dinner we split a pizza at home tonight. Paul newmans makes one that is lower in calories.
we split one and it is 500 calories each which is not bad for dinner., or pizza for that matter.
I post on a hams site for harm reduction.

They advocate learning to moderate your drinking.
They think my plan is a good one.If I can not drink monday thru thursday. then drink on friday, sounds like a plan. I don't ever see myself not drinking totally.
I went to the local store meat market to pick up pork chops on sale for $1.89 instead of $3.50 a pound. ( that is roughly $1.00 a pork chop)...
So that is a good price.
Filled up my gas tank and ran to the dollar tree to pick up some lotion and nail polish and soap for work.
when I got home hubby was worried about me....he did not know that I was going to do errands too, other than the pork chops.
anyway
I have been on the computer long enough.
my back is sore and my neck is better thankfully, it is going on 2 weeks that I injured it myself cracking it.
sigh
Maybe I will run to planet fitness and just use the hydro bed?
and maybe the bounce machine too.

It sounds like another busy day for you! It sounds like you got some good deals tho

Good job sticking to you plan and staying AF yesterday
Did you end up going to the gym?

I'm glad that your neck is feeling a little better... I'm sorry that your back is still sore tho
