I'm doing Atkins. Just eat alot of Salads and veggies and stay
away from white starches..white rice, past , potatos . If you have to have
your Carbs switch to wheat , brown rice, whole grain.
Good Luck

Well my baby went to his first day of real school today and i was so excited for him. i was stir crazy at home with out him though. i went to pick him up and his teacher told me she was so amazed at his manners and how polite he was. i thought to myself, you havent really met the real boy yet!! LOL he is a good kid though and i am so proud of him. i am doing really well with sticking to things. i havent pigged out as much as i thought i would this week and my TOM only lasted a few days, i actually weighed today and found i have lost another 2 pounds which was really a good pick me up to my day. i am looking forward to another fine day tomorrow. It is great to see everyone doing so well and i love that when we dont we can be honest about it without fear of being put down. So keep up the great work and for those who are struggling, Hang in There. You will get it all under control. Have agreat night everyone. will ty to check in tomorrow...

Sorry guys, it is really hard to focus on this weight loss right now. There is talk of evacuating all over the place b/c of Gustav. My husband will be home Friday night - he is 230 mile offshore and his rig is projected to be directly in the path. At least he will not be in harms way once he is home. We should be pretty safe but my family members from N.O. and surrounding areas are all headed this way in the next day or two. Just sitting and waiting, anxious, wondering - where will it hit? So, I am preparing my house for the 3 or so families I will be putting up and I may not have much time on here. I am trying to be as strong as possible and stay away from the food/pantry in times of stress. I am not looking forward to all the junk food that they will bring. Maybe I'll ask them to keep it in their room.

Just wanted to explain if I am MIA for a bit. I hope not but we'll see. Have a great night everyone!

Good Morning. Hope all is well with you all. I am on my way to taking son to school and then lots of errands. Be back in later.

Hey everyone! My week has had its ups and downs. I am super excited cause I have been workin at my new job this whole week...but at the same time my exercise has gone down the toilet until I can figure a schedule up. Hope everyone's week is goin good! Have a great rest of the Thursday!

hey everyone,
hope you girls all have a good week.

Dawn, i hope everything goes well for you and your family. you'll be in my thoughts.

Everything is back to normal here in our house. MIL is talking again.
we are not moving at this point becouse mitch is trying to change jobs.
but for now we are just putting money to the side so when this happens again.(and you can count on it) we can just move. That way we don't have to stress out over anything.
thanks for all the kind words of support.
I started to eat normal again too. so i gained some weight back but it well get off again when i get myself situated.
Kayleigh starts pre school next tuesday. she is going everyday and looks forward to it. (as do i lol) today we went to update their shots. It always hurts me when i see them cry like that. but some icecream after did wonders.

talk to you girls later.

Wow you guys!!! I finally got my account problems settled and everything is working right.



I'm going to have to spend several hours (again lol) sending out buddy invites and fixing my blog back the way it as, but I can't tell you how glad I am to have all the problems cleared.

Thanks for having me on the team!

Just wanted to let everyone know- that the children are adjusting well to Headstart.
Only 1 child in my class- cried today.

Yeah Catrina!!! You did it. lol, good job.
Rebecca I will be praying for you and your family. Sounds like you had great day Kim. My son wasn't such an angel in school today, he had a timeout all ready. i told his teacher, she didnt know him well enuff. But he toold me he is in love with his teacher and he is going to tell her all about it tomorrow. I did good today, i ate well, didnt over do it and I went out and found some gluten free do nuts. $6 for 6 donuts so I will not eat them all at once but at least i can have a bite and get those cravings adjusted. i hate having grown up with wheat so embedded in my diet, it is the hardest thing to cut. I am really getting good at reading labels now and I am looking inot taking another nutrition course. I will get it one of these days, until then I will look like a kid going through puberty and have these dang blisters and hives to deal with. UGH!!! I have to go, but wanted to check in and say hey! Have a great rest of the day. Take care.
