My senior thesis was a research project looking at the effect of daycare on kids. I was a research assistant to a much larger project, so we had a fairly large sample - 300+ kids. Daycare turned out not to be a significant predictor of academic progress or behavioral issues.

What did you major in and what school did you go to? I'm currently in a research methods class for human development (starting 9/2) and would love to have the option to pick your brain about your case study when the time comes up for me to do a major study of my own. :) (Feel free to respond back in my diary---link in my signature)
But I'll stop hogging this space in Alisa's diary now. lol

Alisa- I'll send you my paper & information on where to find other readings on the topic when I'm back to my own computer. I stay the weekends at my bf's so I'm stuck using his computer in the mean time. However, it sounds like allyphoe has quite the experience... doing the actual case study and having a child. :)
 
^^^^ THanks guyys!!!!!

ANd yes it probably is the kids getting my little one sick.
Actually, i've taken him to numerous doctors and it doesn't seem to be allergies. He was put on two puffers once because when he got a cold, he would get extremely stuff and sometimes cough so much that it would make him gag and throw up. So he got a anti-inflammetory puffer and an n bronchodilator to open up his air way and help him breathe.

But my biggest worry at the time was the fever he would always get.
High fevers 102-103 due to the viral infection he probably picked up from daycare. I just don't like him sick lol but it's understandable tho, being around so many children it's bound to happen.

We'll see, he is older now and he has a interesting experience with all kinds of colds and flu's so maybe his system is a lot stronger now. Hopefully not as many sicknesses for my little bear, it kills me when he's sick.

So came back from my 3 hour swim, IM DEAD!!!!!!!!!
Now im starving like crazy lol and Stacey I'm so proud of u for going swimming, I wish all of us could swim together lol.
 
3 hours :eek:!!!!

holy crikeys!!

I went for an hour, and I passed out in a nap when I got home...lol

Thats a SUPER KUDOS! to you for that !!:biggrinjester::biggrinjester:

You've officially earned the rest of the day off ;)

have a nice good tasty meal, and cozy up for a movie....you've earned it !!

:party::party:
 
K so went swimming today, 1.30pm-5 pm.
Swam, n some friends and I just basically fooled around, played around and tried to drown each other for 3 hours lol.

It was fun but I'm beat.

Had breakfast.
Subway for dinner, chicken breast foot loong on whole wheat bread.
Iced Tea to drink and two cookies (my naughty self).
But basically I was starved after the pool.

I had some marshmallow chocolate puff things, like okey dont be shocked lol (6 of them), they are small size but still, probably tons of sugar and calories.
But HEY I haven had sweets in forever so WHATEVER lol!!

Tomorrow ima try to make it to bellydancing :)
 
WOW! Sounds like you have been having some major swimming excursions this weekend. That sounds like so much fun.

Can you believe that we have been consistently at this for 3 weeks now? I am so proud of us! YEA!!! I was reading somewhere that it takes about 21 to 28 days to form (or break) a habit. So, here's to good health and happy exercise. :cheers2:

I was thinking how awesome it is gonna be this new year's that we won't have to make weight loss one of our resolutions cuz we are already on that journey. So we can make fun resolutions like, running 6 5K's, or walking 365 miles. Something like that.

WOOHOO!!! Have a great day!

Yes 3 weeks, woohoo!!!!
We so should go do a 300+ mile walk lol.

Anywho, I'm having a bit of a crisis at the moment.
I have been FORCED to go to a chinese buffet with some close friends of mine and so I said YES.

Mind you, I LOVE THEIR CHICKEN BALLS!!!
I will probably have just a few grilled shrimps, maybe some roast beef, some of their noodles and maybe a tiny dessert of rice pudding :)

I'm not all about food anymore thank goodness, so I think I will do fine tonight :)

ps: Haven't exercised in so long OMG!!!

Ha ha.. SILLY! I meant 1 mile per day for the whole year. Although tackling that 300 mile monster would be interesting...

Have fun when you go out to dinner. Just remember to enjoy your friends more than the food. Did you go to the belly dancing class? I'm interested to see if you love it or hate it.

Have a good night! :waving:
 
Hahaha ^^^

Well The buffet was two nights ago and well I had broccoli on my plate and beans (which is a big plus for me). I had shrimp, about 4 chicken balls with sweet n sour sauce, some noodles and then rice pudding.
I was so full lol, we did have a bunch of fun tho.

School starts soon for me (College) 2nd year and as en ellective I'm taking (NUTRITION). LOL, it's a class they allow us to just pick and I picked that, and I'm SO happy to learn everything in detail about foods and stuff.


NO swimming, the weather is getting cold.
Had breakfast a really crappy one too.
Pizza, 3 slicles and a glass of 2% milk n I feel very heavy.
I havent had the chance ot make it to my gym, I don`t know if its just me or am I really THAT busy`? With work, my son and the household, it's hard to get things going and I'm a real grumpy morning person, Im in the worst mood in the morning so I keep busy by cleaning.

Gosh, work isn't helping. I did apply for another job, Wal-mart, so hopefully a change in work will happen soon because doing this and then being surrounded by fast food all the time isn't helping at all.

Yesterday one of our girls there had her birthday, and our boss decided to get a vanilla/chocolate cake for her, and I declined but they insisted that I had to since it was her bday, so I did, the cake was So yuk, full of icing and sugar. To elike at at work I had like 6 fries and 3 chicken strips (of course fatty) and that was it.

Grr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


:chillpill:
 
Waitaminute... what?!!!!?? They insisted you have cake? You 'had' to? Do they know you're trying to lose weight? Because if they do, that was very disrespectful of them towards you to do that. What does whether or not you eat cake have to do with how somebody's birthday is celebrated?

Sometimes losing weight includes learning the finer and subtler forms of the word 'no'. Doesn't need to be said anger, but sometimes with a force of polite assertiveness, and if they still won't let up... 'accidentally' drop it on their shoes. :biggrinjester:
 
:iagree: You do gotsta learn how to say, "No thank ya..."

But, now that it's done, don't dwell on it. Tomorrow, you can focus on eating lots of those wonderful veggies that I know you don't care for, and you will get back on track.

Um, I don't think I've mentioned this in quite some time, so.... Get a juicer! Hee hee...

It will help you get those veggie nutrients down without having to "eat" so much. Then you can focus on getting in lots of healthy whole grains, dairy, fruit & lean proteins.

We can do this girl, we are in this together for the long haul!
 
Here I am.....again.


I fell back, ain't gonna lie.
I wasn';t losing so i stopped trying.
Anyway I don't want to ramble on because there is no excuse good enough so I'm just gonna try again and again and again.

That's all I can do I guess, is try.

So I'm going out for the night with a few gf's and hopefully my old buddies are still around.
