How was your 5:2 day today?

My biggest dilemma is that I have to take medicine in the morning. I don't want to eat until around 11 am because I like to have a late night snack of 100 calorie pack of cocoa dusted almonds. I've been putting off taking my medicine but the one I can't put off is an anti biotic.

I guess I can share this ,lol. I have to take an antibiotic before have sex or I will get a UTI.I have to take it with food.

I guess half of a Greek Yogurt would be 50 calories. I need to look up string cheese and baby bell light.

How about you? Is the 5:2 plan working with your life? I also don't like working out with my trainer on an empty stomach.

Will this not work if you have 11 hours in between instead of 12? There must be some reason you have to have 12 hours off.

    Thanks Cowgirl, it is Niebles actually. I remember hearing about that person that was kicked off and I seem to remember that she wasn't actually a real coordinator, just an obsessive fan who tried to

Good fast day yesterday, came in at 565 and I did a workout so I am pleased.

Off to a funeral today (friend) so I hope I don't turn to emotional eating.

Hope everyone has a good day.

FYE - OMG, that is horrid! Do you work with disabled students?

Georgia - I hope you got some rest. No sleep is HARD on us, hope it was a short-term thing...

LV - yay you got your workout done, even if you didn't want to. ;)

UK - sorry about the funeral ... :(

I am a sore puppy today, and normally I would go to fusion today but I have an appt that conflicts, so I guess I will maybe hit the treadmill for a bit. Trying right now to decide if I should fast today or Fri....aaaah decisions...

Missing some of our ladies, hope they are well and hope to hear from them soon!

M2G - we are soooo on the same page again! I've done a double work out too! Did Zumba in after school (in-house with teachers and pupils - had a great laugh too) and tonight I took my daughter to the boxing gym! It is the first time I've been there since Jan, and the first time since my TT! What a difference. I felt great, like I've never been away. Didn't striggle for breathing, which was my main concern!

I really feel good about this; like I'm getting my mojo back! Oh and 160 again this morning... just gotta break this new set point.

I haven't fasted today as such but I haven't feasted either. Next fast day is Thursday for me now.

Coops I forgot Coops....YEAH GIRL !!!! Get your groove on my sleeve sister! YOU ROCK!

Take care. And we are here if you need to talk.

No' date=' I sent her a PM because I want to mail her package and I don't have her address. Was she going into the hospital and would be gone awile? I am excited that I've lost the 3 lbs I gained while Phil was here. I am doing really well today even though it's not a fast day. I want to see that number below 140 so badly. It's been a long time sime I've seen 130-anything.[/quote']

You go, Girl!!! I want to see the 140s! My new goal!

Good job daisy! Gt and Clk. seem to be MIA... Ok just a smack over 500 today. If I can make it through the evening I'll be golden :)

Did u make it?;)

It was a really uplifting service and I came out of it feeling much better than when I went in. Eating under control and I feel positive. Thanks for the support.

I did! Well ok I had I kims magic pop at 15 calories :P

But other than that I did, which is a minor miracle these days!

I'm really struggling at night again all of a sudden, so I need to get some control back...

Good to hear.

Funerals are hard but once in awhile it becomes a celebration of the persons life. Which to me is more fitting really.

I still want to try those things. Wish I could get them without having to order a crate! Lol. Glad you did it!

Lol I just got a crate of them...

They were on sale and I was out.

Now I'm trying to figure out where to store them :P

LV I have a general rule where I stay out of the kitchen after 6:00pm and do not go back in. This helps in keeping me from eating things I don't need. The only exceptions is when I have a late dinner and the latest is 7:00pm. It really works for me.....

UK I believe that when someone passes away, we should celebrate their passing and be thankful for them being in our life. :P

What is a magic pop? very curious!

I hit 139 this morning. I am thrilled. I just hope I can make it stick over the weekend. Tomorrow is a fast day so I just hope that's enough to keep me headed in the right direction. I know it's going to be a real struggle from here on out to get to 135.

I 'm headed off to the gym, so that should help!

I wish globe would check in.

I use them to carry my tuna, hummus or to just nibble on some times,

Lol nibble sounds so cute..

More like stuff in my face when I'm "starving" and need some crunch!

Well anyway I like em.. They are big 15 calories and 4 carbs (onion flavor) oh and crunchy :)
