Lucky #7 are still going strong !!!
Karri - LOL ya sometime it takes a while - we all go thru our spurts - how's the fill going - I think we can get compliance and since you haven't been able to exercise you can't eat the way you were and even then you had got a little off track - Glad you are back on track.. Candice - You all are my girls - You are my Lucky #7 and are irreplaceable !!!! You are all my sisters & DD !!!! Can't be replaced !!! - I have already met one of the "I'm here to help girls" but will be meeting the rest for the 1st time - the ones who are coming are mostly our age group - we do have a newbie who's like 30 - but the ones who are staying at the resort are all in their 50's + .. LOL about your boss !!!! So you like retirement :0) - hell you worked part time anyway :o0) Well not the hours I do - but again you would work late where I am in here 7:15 to 4 p.m.. Hell ask for enought $$ and go back - but negoigate like 3 months vacation time ;0) Steph - I just remember I talked to you on Saturday - I hope I didn't sound short w/you - I was at the grocery store - loading food in the trunk and couldn't hear you until I got in the car and even then I couldn't hear you that well - I hate cell phones - Plus i was in another world - thinking about all the pple at my house and that sis didn't come and help w/the cost of the food.. I was a little flustered- it was raining too ;o) Did you find the book.. Well I should be working but I keep thinking about all that I have to do to be ready for tomorrow - Need to be at airport around 5:30 a.m - get to FL 4 p.m. - but lose 3 hrs as I cross the country - so it will be a long day...

Candice Do you have GNC vitamin shops in Canada?? That’s where I got mine – it’s made by pure protein – Target carries choc shakes – but not the banana – so Walmart might too.. Yesterday I didn’t add any real banana – was still good but I like it better with a little real banana in it – it is a little chocky w/out it – nothing bad – but adding fruit does make it like a real milkshake… Karri – glad you have an easy day – I got vit b12 nose spray $225 though for 2 months supply – you do it once a week – I don’t know if I will continue, can’t say I feel any better to tell the truth… I think I may be sleeping better I flaked on the gym last night – had to go by bank to get $$$ for trip and tonite will work out w/Idrise & Vicky – (arms) The resort we are staying at has a gym – so will take tennis shoes and some workout clothes – hell these are my mentor girls – so I gotta set a good example – and work out Friday & Saturday – LOL !!!! I thought about taking carry on – but may do ck bag – it’s easier in a way – then I don’t have to worry about liquid limitations.. Cbl

Good Evening Gang Aint going to the gym- I am pooped - so will do some wii instead (well maybe ;0) Candice I missed this yesterday 1) Eat EVERY 3 hours, weather I am HUNGRY or not... 2) Each time I eat, it must include PROTIEN - You mean you didnt - I might not have hard protein for bf but yogurt does have pt in it - 3) No drinking with meals ( i wasn't doing this) but I need to WAIT One full HOUR before beverages. 4) Between meals I must drink MORE water... he thinks I am dehydrated and that's causing fluctuations in my B/P... (makes sense) I HAVE BEEN BAD ON WATER MAYBE THAT'S WHY MY HEAD HURT TODAY 5) I must NOT skip breakfast, under any circumstances... if I am TIGHT, then have a pro shake or pro bar, cut up in very tiny peices. I EAT BF 5 DAYS NOT SO MUCH ON THE WEEKENDS BUT SOMETIMES I DO 6) I must stop saving Calories to Eat at night... to the detriment of rule #1 & #2... if I am going to snack in the evenings it must include a protien source...ie. pc of cheese, then the popcorn... or NUTS, then a SF, FF pudding or yogurt THIS I DISAGREE WITH NOT BUDGETING CALORIES /BUT THAT'S JUST DR JANET - AND SF PUDDING & YOGURT DOES HAVE PT - NUTS HAVE ALOT OF CALORIES SO BE CAREFUL 7) strive to eat more veggies and fruit, and if I can't tolerate them... then I may need a slight Un-fill... AGREED I EAT MEAT AND VEGGIES FOR LUNCH & DINNER 99% OF THE TIME AND FRUIT IN THE MORNING.. 8) No carb. beverages.. (o.k. cause I don't drink them anyways) He said I was "setting my body up for failure" because I was NOT eating enough protien, plus with working out at the gym 4 times per week, I need MORE cals on those days... up to 1250 cals... and increase PROTIEN... So I think I can do this and refocus myself... eat more HIGH quality foods and less junk... he didn't say to completely eliminate sugar, but I think I'll do that anyways... gotta get the cravings under control.... YEP GF YOU KNEW ABOUT EATING JUNK !!! IT'S ABOUT EATING HEALTHY - I HAVE BEEN PREACHING THAT FOR 2.5 YRS ;0) Glad you are refocused Well - tmi - I a constipated !!!! I haven't been drinking enough water - took some phillip hope it works..
