Shrinkin' Violets Part 3 Read HERE!

[TracyinKS 7]

Good morning V's...................

Yesterday.. the first step in my On the road again adventure.......

Yesterday scale 211.2, Today 209.4..........

Yesterday I managed to NOT eat any ice cream....

I had

1 pot of coffee w/creamer

3/4 of a protien bar

hunks of cheese when I got hungry

3 big glasses of CL (liveactive)

After work I took the boys to Sonic........ I GOT NOTHING......... not even Dt. Dr. Pepper.

Dropped Cody at scouts and went to the store to stock up on "healthy" Tracy stuff......... It was 9pm by the time I got home and I was starving........

I ended up having a frozen Calorie countdown (I had put some in the freezer) and then about 1/2 cup of cottage cheese w/pepper......... it was enough to settle my tummy for sleeping.< /p>

So far today......

coffee w/SUGAR FREE Creamer

the last of the left over Protein Bar (about 1/4)

I brought in thin sliced deli meat and plan to make wraps with the cheese.... (dipped in ranch) the key will be slow slow slow........

Also, I stocked up on Crystal Light due to the sale at the store and the coupons I had...... so I'm set on that route............

My first goal is to get back into ONEderland......

I have a band meeting tonight......... I guess I better go... I just hate feeling like a failure to all those NEWBIES......

OH and you should see my mom!!!!!! She is rocking the band! She showed up at my neices graduation party in a form fitting blouse and WOW!!!!!!! her loss was really noticable! (she has always had small arms and a beautiful face......she is somewhat dark complected due to our cuban heritage from her dad,,, she practically glows with a little sun. I will post her pics soon as I download them.

I will TRY to join Tracy's challenge....... but more so... I am desparately trying to climb back aboard the losing train.

TracyinKS...the train is going slowly so it should be very easy to jump right on. :wub:

Morning Girls~

On the Bama post, I was logged in as Michelle, and when I posted I was like WTH??? Then I posted 3 times. I am sure Michelle will think, "i didn't post that!" I even mentioned her name, as if she were talking about herself in the third person...haha!

OK...work, home pork chops and salad for dinner, and edits!

I got sucked into this show called, "I am a celebrity, get me outta here." OMG...Spencer Pratt is an ASSHOLE. I swear, I wanted to hurt him...badly. Thank goodness he left and took his dumb ass stupid freakin idiot "wife" w/ him.

see you later 'gators!

xoxo

Good Morn, Ladies!~~

That's funny, Pam!! I'll have to go over & see what I wrote about myself! :wub:

One day @ a time, TracyKS! Good start!

The pics are so cute, TracyK!

"toot your flute" Judy? Sounds like a personal problem! :crying:

Your day sounds busy but nice, Suzie.

Hope you're feeling better today, Janie!

Hope the wacky lady leaves your office alone, today, Kat!

Laura, I don't think I should go to that slots site... you should've seen my eyes light up when we entered the casino in PS! I had an actual physical reaction... like I'd eaten too much sugar! Yikes!

& "peace" Terry?... hmmm... maybe a bit! It's definitely getting there!

I'm meeting a friend for coffee @ 10:30... then it's work, etc. the rest of the day. I'm also working on seeing if I can get the last 4 yearbooks that teachers ordered for kids instead... these parents calling me w/their sad tales of woe are breaking my heart! Oh -- & I have to take cat food to the pet shelter as a donation today, too!!!

Make it a good one!!

[Haydee 2]

pam - is that the one with sanjaia? ugh, he gets on my biggest nerve...

Heather - how you feeling?? Baby yet? I meant to comment on your post yesterday but I was just brain dead. You said you were having some bad feelings because you might have to get induced and have a C-section instead of letting it fly naturally?? Aww heather, I'm not a mom but I know that you shouldn't feel guilty for things you can't control... Whatever way she comes out you'll still be mama to her and that's all that matters...

Judy - my babies LOVE sharing my ice cream pops with me... They don't wait until I'm done. Usually they're on my lap and they take bites of it while it's in my hand... They don't lick they bite chuncks off of it, LOL...

TracyK - your Macy looks so cute!! She's a big girl now!

Busy day as always. Yesterday I did good with my eating:

B-Low fat yogurt with 1/2 cup granola

L-6 triscuits, 2 slices of turkey, 1 slice of pepper jack cheese

D- One chile relleno stuffed with white cheese and shrimp and baked in the oven.

Then we had after dinner coffee and I shared a cup with Juan and I had two butter Cookies.< /p>

Drank about 6 glasses of Water.< /p>

Today is the exact same for Breakfast and lunch but for dinner I'm gonna make pork chops!

Protein Shake for lunch 300 cals 60g p

1/2 cup lettuce, homemade ranch dressing with sliced roast beef and cheese (went to pizza shop and sliced my roast from Monday night - boy was that good)

300 cals and 15g p

I lost 5lbs yest.... YIPEE.. but this is my starting point of the -5 challange because i had creaped back up to 209 on the antidepressants ... so 205 is a good starting place.... I was in denial i gained 14lbs from my all time low...

Jane,.... did you find your stuff on your computer?

I so wish i could go on the trip. I'm honestly so very depressed it has taken all i have for the last week to get ot of bed.... walk 4 miles, crawl back in bed.... get up and shower... back to bed... my mom let me sleep this morning, i had a huge spider in my room last night and couldn't sleep, because i've been seeing things that are not here... i've been freaking out thinking there are spiders all over me, and then last night there was a real one.. so i'm losing sight of what is real and what is not. actuall scares me to death.

I'm finishd with my coffee... going to take my mental self for a walk and to get my hair cut. It is falling out so badly i'm going to try to cut off a few inches to see if it helps it look fuller.

all the dark is gone from underneath.... maybe i'll go have some bloodwork done.

anyway, have a great day

Pam...send some sunshine.... or some margies... i could use both!

:confused: GO JENN

[HeatherO 7]

Jane,

Can you check in your recycle bin on your computer to see if a deleted file is still there with your 2009 data? Perhaps it is stored in a temporary file somewhere.

Laura,

Phooey on Russ for not going all out for mothers day. The ring sounds beautiful.

Haydee,

Baby is still in . . . coming someday but I guess maybe not today, lol. I am doing much better this morning but I think late pregnancy is like super PMS. It sounds like you had a marvelous weekend with Pamela and Michelle.

Michelle,

Was it easy or hard to write a resignation letter? I am sure it is a great relief to have it out of the way but hard to say goodbye in a letter form after so many years.

TracyK,

Macy is such a cutie and she must have had a great time at gradualtion.

I really want to come to the 'Bama trip . . . count me in for next year wherever it ends up being. :0)

Tracyks we miss you when you don't post!!! POST!!!

Well my head is better it is no longer doing a dance with a very strong beat. But, my nose has started running again!!! Frustrating!!

Kat, that is crazy about that woman!!! How can somebody be that mad over something so small!!! Crazy, crazy!!

Did a system restore on my computer to Monday thinking that would get my lost excel file back. Sounds really good doesn't it!! It didn't work. Don't know why.

Oh well I am off to take a shower and get to work!!

Oh and I did eat some ice cream yesterday, I really don't like ice cream that much, but I ate it anyways........

[janiebug 0]

I just read that Heather and will go check!!!!

[janiebug 0]

It was in my recycle bin, but as a blank application. Good thought though!!!

[Suziecat 379]

So far, worked for 2 hours. Went to W-M and spent $110. And I have to go back to exchange the shorts I got for hubby. Came home did house work, baked a cake. Made fruit salad for BBQ today. Let the dog in and the cat out. Let the cat in and let the dog out. Ran the sweeper. Made some chicken salad for later.

It's a great life.

[Daisalana 33]

mmmm fruit salad, I have been craving it for weeks, my g'ma normally makes that or glorified rice for our cookouts, and my dad said he wanted her to make the rice a couple weeks ago; he hung her moon and stars, so she doesn't care that I keep begging for fruit salad, her baby wants the rice.. lol

[mdrai 3]

Hey Suzie, I spent $120 @ Sam's Club so we're both doing our part for the economy! I was stocking up on pool Snacks, which will be starting soon... my kids get out June 16, and it seems all they do is EAT over the summer!

The resignation letter is simply 2 sentences. It could've been just 1, but I had to put a snarky line in there w/ a jab at those who tried to oust me earlier, stupid people, and allude to the fact that I kept my commitment to the school (even though it would've been WAY less stress to quit earlier this spring). This is it:

"I hereby tender my resignation from the position of PTA President, effective July 1, 2009. As understood since last June, this concludes my commitment to serve out the first year of the two-year term for which I was elected in June 2008. Best Wishes..."

But after tomorrow night, the new Board will be elected & there are no more PTA activities/functions for me to supervise, so basically it'll be just transition stuff... so in my mind I'm "done" tomorrow night. Yay! Am going out for a margi (margis?) afterward!

Back to work...

[Haydee 2]

Finished my lunch about half an hour ago. Working on my second glass of Water. Want a cupcake so bad! Cupcake and milk! I didn't have my yogurt this morning so I might just have that instead, sigh...
