Good morning, I feel pretty good today despite the rain. Had a good dinner last night and breakfast this morning. Had a CORE lunch packed and am drinking my water as I work. I also got on the gazelle last night, for 10mins. but I am taking it slowly, did my mile. My goal for exercise this week is a minimum of 10 min. a night and if I get more, great. Gotta run and get some work done here. I will check back in later. Oh ya, I got in 3 litres (12 glasses) of water plus a little more yesterday, I stopped counting after the 3 litres. Drink up.

Wow where did my day go. I just finished working out so I will be up for a while. Am putting Matthew to bed then will be sitting down with a tall drink to relax. Good night all see you tommorow for another great OP day.

Terri

[booey2]

Wow another weekend bit the dust. We did over 5 hours of yard work yesterday so that puts me well over my 70 min of activity this week but I am going to get on it tommorow night after Matthew's soccer game, I just don't have the energy to do it right now. This was a good weekend food wise, I ate breakfast both days and I know that helped to keep me focused, I also made myself eat lunch which kept me satisfied. I believe this is the first weekend in a long time that I didn't feel like I blew it when it came to food choices. I am really like the new me and all my new choices when it comes to food. Oh well off to drink some more water and clean up my kitchen from supper. Have a great night, I will check in again tommorow.

Here I am, sorry to miss yesterday, things are crazy at home and work, this week will be nuts all around so I may miss a day here and there. I have my first WI tommorow night and I am getting excited to see what a whole week and weekend on program will produce. I am feeling really good today, CORE is really doing my body good. I will pop in later gotta run and do some work. I did walk to the dentist last night, then to the soccer field then home so I didn't get on the gazelle I was just to hot and tired after all that walking. Will get back on it tonight, I have already met my activity goal for the week of 70 mintues so all the extra is awesome. Drink up.

Wow! Sounds like you are doing great! I'm excited to hear how your appointment goes. Keep up the good work!

[coasterqueen]

Doing great Terri!!! Keep up the great work.

[booey2]

Thanks Karen, I am getting a little nervous and excited for tonights WI. I don't own a scale so I have no clue as what I have done. I feel so much better today then I did a week ago. It is nice to have this confidence back. Okay gonna go now and get some work done. I will check back here after my WI tonight and let ya know how I did. I am hoping for at least 1 pound in a loss any more will be a bonus.

Gonna drink up my water now.

Terri

[coasterqueen]

Ooooh I'm nervous for you. Good luck tonight.

[booey2]

Okay I am back from my meeting and I am down almost 4 pounds, (3.8 to be exact). I am really liking the CORE program and am feeling in control for the first time in a long time. Gotta run and get some dinner and get these boys to bed. I probably would have been down a little more but I didn't stop drinking my water early enough, I will have to remember that for next week. See ya in the morning.

Terri

[booey2]

Here we go, on to a fresh new week. I have had my breakfast and coffee now about to start drinking my water. This will be a busy weekend, as Matthew is having his "friend" birthday party (1 mont before his acutual birthday) because the weekend of his birhtday is our Canada Day long weekend and I was afraid no one would come. I am also working on Saturday morning and will get home around 1-1:30pm all depending on how much I have to do at work. The kids are just going to play around in our yard and play basketball, soccer, catch, you know the birthdays from days gone by, not the high priced parties of today. I will be good with food choices and will definitely get my activity in. Being back on program I feel really in control and empowered to conquer anything. Gotta run, will check in later.

Terri - off to drink some water.

[Kaitlin'smom]

CONGRATS on the loss that is great. Keep it up. You can do it.

[booey2]

Thanks Di, I haven't told many people in RL that I have gone back, only you all know, my sister and my DH. Oh and of course the people in my meeting.
I am really liking the CORE program much better than counting points because I don't see myself counting points the rest of my life but I can see me eating the foods on the lists for the rest of my life.

Terri

[mammag]

Wow! 4 Pounds! That's fabulous!!!! I'm so glad the program is working for you! Just keep going and stay motivated and you'll have a hot body in no time!

[coasterqueen]

Okay, on to day 3, things are going good, I got on the Gazelle las night even thou I didn't want to and did 17 minutes, that means only 73 to go til my goal for this week is met. I just can't say enough about how good I am feeling, the food I get to eat is totally satisfying me and filling be me up. I have had no cravings yet and no real urge to eat junk. I just finished breakfast here at work and am going to start on my water/green herbal tea. Will check back in later. Okay everyone drink up now.

Hello on a not so nice morning, I am sitting here at work with nothing, and I mean nothing I wan to do, I could/should be home getting stuff ready for Matthew's party but here I sit instead. Anyway my co-worker just came in so I am not alone. I am going to be doing a small project resizing pics for our website. I had a little splurge of some baked nachos last night, yummy at the time but hurt my tummy later. Gotta get some work done will check in later. Oh, I didn't do the gazelle as my knee is acting up again gonna do it tonight for a little longer and see if it is okay.

See ya later.

Good morning, our weekend was okay, it rained all day Saturday after I left work so the party was in the house and not outside as planned but they had a blast anyway thanks to my hubby's big screen tv, then Sunday we went to Cambridge for a family baseball game and bbq. All in all i think I did pretty well, ate some food that I shouldn't have and my body told me so. Won't do that again.

I never did get back on the gazelle but I know I did a ton of walking so that will count toward my weekly activity total. I managed also to get all my water in both days to that is a big plus. I am at work now drinking my water and dreading this week.

I donna wanna work, I wanna bang on my drum all day.



Gotta run. work and my water is calling my name, I will be around today.

Terri

[mammag]

Isn't it funny that after eating better for a while, the junk food starts to not agree with you at all?

Good job on getting the water in! I need to go have some now because I've been so busy this morning I have only had about 12oz. Thanks for the reminder!

[booey2]

You are more than welcome Jeanie.

Terri

[booey2]
