thanks bobby!


Dinner was vegetable soup with a

few bites of chunks of beef.
I ended up eating the whole quart

and am full now.
hubby would not have liked it because
it only had a few bits of meat.

I put hot sauce in it because it was

boring, so that gave it some zip.
Bought it at sandras some times their

veggie soup is spicy some times it is
not, hit or miss.
I have been doing some charting
and it is going good. listening to

Jerry garcia tape over and over while

charting. it helps to get me going also drinking
tea and chewing gum. Took a break to eat

dinner and be here on the forums for a bit.
almost done with december.
maybe I can go to the gym after I am done charting?
my back feels weird after bending and twisting,
getting charts into and out of the filing cabinet which is
on the floor.The top shelf is not to bad
the bottom shelf pull drawer is tough

because my glasses don't seem to work rite.
well I had better get back to charting

because I want to go to the gym.
bizi

I caved into snacking tonight. the veggie soup left me hungry.
So I ate 5 medium sized pretzels and 3 slices of cheese and a Popsicle that only had 40 calories.



Now i won't go to bed hungry! It was over the course of an hour.
It is time to hit the hay.
bizi

I had a cheat day....out for drinks and ate a lot of food.
scale for some odd reason worked this morning.
up 3 pounds of beer gut.belly bloat or what ever you say.
not worth it. I won't be having another cheat day in quite some time.

I know you can do it!

Thanks bobby!I said I would give myself a cheat day every 3 weeks.
something to look forward to doing.

Keep working at it Bizi

You can do this.

189.1 yay down into the 180's that is 13 pounds down Since jan 4th.

Cherie, you gave up drinking eat smaller portions only eat what you love, eat more slowly.
watch the carbs.
my dinner last night at a friends house cooked nothing but carbs.
2 meat ball stew, 1 small piece of bread crispie,small amount of rice like a 1/4 cup. one cup of turnips 2 small servings of green beans and a small piece of lemon cake.
sounds like a lot of food. oh and 1/4 cup of corn. so many carbs in one meal!!!!!!
It was delicious. we played a trivia game after dinner.(I am miserable at trivia).
our team won.Melissa lost and she is very competitive!
well I took a shower yesterday and washed my hair so all I need to do this morning is my skin care routine. and of course figure out what to wear. Have a great sunday yall.
I hope the storm is mild.
bizi

I am done working for the day.
I finished the never ending charting, got caught up yay!
I did 2 loads of laundry and folded them and put a way. I got my calender set for febuary. filed the cards that always get stacked up. Made a few phone calls.
Faxed orders to MDS for signature. It has been a productive weekend. If I had been drinking none of that would have been done. I am drinking hot tea.
Jeff went out of town to sit in with a jam session. wonder if he will play along with them?
I know he will have fun either way. I am thinking I will go to burger king right down the corner from us and get the low carb whopper(no bun) for dinner.
https://sparkpeo.hs.llnwd.net/e1/ass...icons/e334.gif
bizi

No joke, I asked for extra mayo on the burger and they dumped 1/2 cup of mayo on my burger.I scrapped it off leaving behind some mayo., on top of cheese slices.

It was good, not as good as a regular whopper with the bread and ketchup.
ended up costing $5 for just the burger.
their sign says 2 whopper meals for $10. when jeff got home from his jam session. he went to mcdonalds for a quarter pounder with cheese.
I am sure he enjoyed his burger more than I did.
anyway I am still not hungry so that was my goal.
I have drank a lot of fluid today. Hope I am not up all night going to the bathroom. the senna and stool softener are not working today. We will see how tomorrow goes.

188.9

thanks for your support bobby, have a good day!
((((HUGS))))

Good job on the whooper without a bun Bizi. Derrick has a trick
he gets the whole burger with the whole bun, But then he
takes off half the bun and doesn't eat it. That works for him.

He got a wake up call at the urologist on Thursday, and has been
working to clean up his stools. The doctor informed him they thought
his kidney stone is gone. But to be safe he is getting a ultrasound this
week. But he has stuff in places he shouldnt so he needs to be in
the bathroom all week. So we got doculax, and he has the fiber pills
I had already got him. So far he is doing pretty good getting it down.

But since he didn't seem to know he had a problem I'm not sure how
to know if he is getting it all.

Donna :hug::grouphug:

senna and colace work for me. twice a day, I go every other day now.
are you getting any of the arctic cold and snow?
bizi

188.9 had large bm that did not hurt!!!!
senna and colace to the rescue! I guess going every other day is the norm for me, I will take it.I am sure that my bathroom scale will be lighter tomorrow!
bizi

sorry if too much info.....

Oh yes, we got lots of snow. We are in the middle of the mess I'd say.
Our kids didn't go to school Monday they had an elearning day.

We were on a red day on part of Saturday and all of Sunday.

So it was stay at home all day.

Donna

what do you mean red day?
bizi

186.9 Same weight that I was 10-2-20,
15.5 pounds down in one month.
I had put that weight on in 4 months time. geesh!
glad the scale is cooperating.
my bra is not as tight and my beer belly is going down.
yay!
bizi

great for you!
love
bobby

oops I'm thinking I'm talking to someone from Indiana. heehee

But we have a divided map of Red, orange and yellow for travel
in the way our weather is. If its red, you are to only travel if
essential travel only. Well that was us on part of Saturday and all
of Sunday. Not that it stopped some from travelling.

Orange is essential and traveling with your own risk. Type thing I can't remember exactly.

Yellow is advisory and its just a small amount of risk.

Donna :hug::grouphug:

who makes that call? weather man?governor?
bizi just curious.

Each county emergency management team. Its a government type
thing.

Donna :hug::grouphug:

no bm in 2 days, getting nervous.....

take magnesium citrate. the new laxative i am using isn't working too.

Good luck for something working ladies. Its really odd how this
stuff works right. I know lately all I have to seem to do is eat
some lettuce and it helps.

But that is just me.

Donna :hug::grouphug:

I had another cheat day.
We went out for crawfish tonight for dinner.
over ate, and drank. but am happy. i can't be good all of the time.
bizi

I won't be looking at the scale anytime soon, the bloat is horrible.

Bizi

As long as you can give it a day or so and not much more. It would
be okay. I hope that is it for now.

Donna :grouphug::hug:

oh how I really messed up. I completely over drank at the super bowl gathering at friends house. 6 of us total. 4 people drove separately and were only a couple of miles from our house. So that was good.
I was drinking "gin and tonics", mostly gin. And I was drinking them fast. I blacked out and can't remember dinner or doing dishes or Drinking more, I thought I only had 3 drinks but found out today that I had several more than that. Every one was involved. I made a scene, was going to drive home. But kathryn stepped up to tell them that no I was unfit to drive home. so they forcefully got me out of the car. Jeff drove us home around 9pm. She drove my car home and paul came with his car to pick her up at our house.

We had steaks and zucchini. the steak looked good but I don't remember eating it and brought half home...
needless to say I got very sick to my stomach once we got home.

Today, I called kathryn and thanked her for helping me....
Gin is not my friend,
That is an understatement.
I won't be drinking again, anytime soon.
I wish I could just stop.
But I just can't....
sigh

Afraid to step on the scale after all of this eating and drinking.

thank God you are safe. I am so sorry.

as you know I live in louisiana.Our air conditioner went out on us. We like to sleep at 70, the inside of the house is 74 and it is 70 outside. low tonight is 64 so it should cool the house by the morning. and then we are looking at colder raining weather the rest of the week. 30's for lows and 40's for highs.
rain/ice freezing at night we are not accustom to these colder temps.
here is the rain.
bizi

Hope you can get the air conditioner before you really need it.

I use a fan all night because I need it. But we have heat on all the time
right now. Its cold.

Donna :hug::grouphug:

We had left over tuna steak and quinoa and veggie soup for dinner.
It was all very good.
and a piece of cheese.

I had 3 beers.
