  • I posted about (vented) in my daily check-in. Tomorrow will be a very interesting day at my husband’s work as all the ones that took the separation package will be gone. Hopefully, we’ll find out more about what’s going to happen with the rest of the employees. Whatever it is, we can deal with it. We just need to know what “it” is so we can.

    Today is a strange one. It started on a good note. All of my husband’s family that have been dealing with Harvey are safe and sound. The ones that weren’t effected by the initial storms have had to be evacuated yesterday due to overflowing reservoirs or the second landfall of Harvey. We had a very tense night as one of the cousins that had been…[Read more]

    I can’t seem to get going today. I’m sleeping at night but don’t seem to be resting. That’s making it difficult for me to get started in the mornings.

    More of the same for me today. Cleaning out the house as much as I can. I got rid of a bunch of stuff that I haven’t been using out of the kitchen yesterday. I’m hoping to get more of it done…[Read more]

    Good Morning my friends! This morning has been better. I got one basket of laundry folded. Kids got off to school on time and now I’m getting ready for work. Today I’m practicing letting go. My husband has to go get his stitches out and make a decision about his dental implants. He also has to take both boys to the doc to get there prescriptions…[Read more]

    Almost forgot to check in!  Well laundry got washed but not folded ( it hey it’s all clean!) eye doc went great. I’m allways glad we found one that works well with my oldest and reacts well to his needs. Unfortunalty he is gonna need another prescription as his eyes have gotten much worse (he got daddy’s eyes) whiteboards did not go up today but…[Read more]

  • @kperevosnik (woohoo drop downs work) I have a BIG problem with portion control also and buying stuff in smaller bags is nice but expensive so I buy in bulk (the bigger the better) and then I portion the ENTIRE bag out in 1/2 cup servings in to Snack size zip-locks. then I put all the zip-locks in to a box that has handles that snap over the lid.…[Read more]

    Whew! almost late! I had intended on signing in much earlier however I got in to an argument with my Mother-in-law which always results in me Rage Cleaning. So far I have almost 2500 steps in so rage cleaning does good for me but it makes my day interesting. Today is my day off and I actually have time most of this morning so I’m planning on…[Read more]

  • Today has started out at a wonderfully cool upper 60s. Such a treat for us here! I’m starting my day with a dental appointment. I have a chip in a tooth that the dentist wants to fill in as it’s a bit irritating. After that it’s back to cleaning out the house. I’ve already been “yelled”  at by the dog for being 10 minutes late feeding her.…[Read more]

  • Micro nutrition stresses me out! I did a program once that stressed me out so bad I think I might have a little PTSD from it. So I can safely say no I don’t track micro nutrients

  • Since our mini pledge challenge has been extended a week, my pledge this week is to work on drinking liquids before I snack to try and keep the stress eating to a minimum.

  • Time to get busy and get as much cleaned out of my house as possible. That being said, I’m also going to take so time to make sure that I have what I need available so I don’t fall victim to foods that I shouldn’t be eating. I’m planning on making a BIG batch of Unjury peanut butter protein balls in chocolate and strawberry (mmmmmm! Tastes like…[Read more]

    Today has been a very quiet day for me. My husband is working on his resume. I’m pretty much taking advantage of the quiet as my week will be a stressful one.

    Breakfast was Greek yogurt and a power crunch protein bar.

    Lunch was some turkey (I was going to have the rest of the kale salad but my husband beat me to it)

    Dinner is still up in the…[Read more]

  • How can it be almost September already? I’m not ready for September!

    Everyone at my husband’s work who’s “Voluntary Separation” forms are accepted will work their last day on Thursday. People are being fired left and right. I’ll not be surprised if layoffs start Friday (that way they don’t have to pay for the Labor Day holiday). Corporate has…[Read more]

    Unfortunately, no “aha” moments. Mainly trying to stop and see if I’m really hungry, thirsty or wanting to eat out of stress. I’m definitely still doing too much stress eating.

    It’s just now hit me that today ends this challenge. I was sitting here trying to decide what my next pledge was going to be. 😕

  • It’s been a busy day for me, also. We’ve been looking at flooring for the house all day. I’m battling a vicious headache.

    Breakfast was sausage and lentil soup and some Greek yogurt

    Lunch was a Quest bar in the car

    Dinner will be turkey breast and some kale salad

    Snacks will probably be shakes or bars

  • Happy, happy birthday! 🎂🎈🎁

  • I thought that I was late checking in today, but I guess not!

    I got all my steps in and most of my liquids in before lunch. Lunch was out with my sister and oldest grandson. Today’s a stressful one. It’s the deadline for turning in the “Voluntary Separation” forms at my husband’s work. We’ve chosen not to volunteer. I imagine we’ll find out soon…[Read more]
