I'm gonna do it!

I do the SAME thing when I'm stressed out or upset...reach for the food! When my husband makes me mad, I eat something. When work is stressful, I eat something. Or I used to, at least. I still do, sometimes, but not nearly as much as before.

Before, my go-to bad day food was an order of five mozzarella cheese sticks from a local fast food place. With ranch dressing. Yum. But SO bad for me. I looked online and found one serving (135 grams) has 410 calories and 21 grams of fat....not sure how many servings there actually ARE in an order...
 
hey sorry to hear about your centre! don't worry about the comfort food...i think everyone has days like that...you will be back on track in no time.

have a good day

;-)

I'm sorry about the robbery. It sounds like an inside job. All you can do is change the locks, set up a surveillance system, help the cops catch the robbers and hope that you get restitution when they're caught.
 
Tabitha,

You cannot tell me that you cannot think of 3 things good about yourself. You seem like such a nice person.

Hello, the folk on here all seem so nice, but I am one of those people who don't believe nice things that are said about them... for example, the photo that I use as an avatar was taken because I said I looked a mess (2 months post Dan) and I had got ready in 15mins flat (including washing hair and doing make up) and my friend disagreed... still not sure on that one. I expect it has come from years of people taking the mickey so I don't know what's real and what is a hidden jibe anymore I know it's sad, but I am working on it... it's just a lot of hard work.

My main happy thoughts are I have a husband that loves me, two happy beautiful boys and I'm an individual
 
I hope you find out who did this!!!!! Wow, you just can not trust people today? Are you going to put up cameras or something. Everything will work out, just take it day by day. Hope you rest of the weekend goes good! Try and catch up on your sleep! :)
 
IWBT,

I do wake up sometimes in the early morning hours just to toss and turn and think about things I really can't do anything about, only to fall asleep 30 min. or so before the alarm goes off. That's really irritating.

I just hate getting woke up in the middle of the night, because that's when it usually happens.

That's too bad about your center. Maybe it was "staged" to look like a break in? Never know, hopefully though it wasn't the now-departed manager.
Hope they find out who did it.
 
Sorry to hear abt the disaster at the centre WBT- that is certainly troubling- and if I were you I'd probably just either not eat at all or turn to my comfort foods. It is either one or the other.

They may have taken the trouble to pry open the case with a crow bar to make it look like a burglary? Or maybe someone was told where exactly the money was...and the job was done by a third person...in any case, you need to set up a fool-proof system so that whether management, client, or perfect stranger....they get caught.

I hope the matter gets sorted out and you can return to a regular sleeping pattern. *hugs*
 
I am glad to hear that you are looking to the future, and I am sure with two young children to raise that you don't want them to follow in your footsteps regarding eatting habits. Have you ever heard of Overeatters Annomous? They help find the root of why you bindge. Hopes this helps
 
Hey you! :)

Eevee,


I love your reasons too. I am so lucky that I don't have any health problems because of my weight...yet. I suppose that should be a big motivator for me since I see how many problems extra weight can cause. I guess it is easy to take something for granted if there is nothing wrong with it.

This is sooo going to be an awesome year. I know we are all going to look so much better by spring...and totally great by summer.

Good luck!

Hey you,

Awesome! You don't have any health probs... you definitely don't want any .. I have diabeties and its not fun! trust me ..its a bummer ...

You will reach your goal and be sitting pretty ... literally ...

I will stop in when you enter another diary entry ..

Hi

You recently visited my diary so I thought that I would visit yours.

I am sorry about the robbery at your centre. I hope that it is all resolved soon. The culprit could have known where keys were etc but not use them because it would narrow down the list of likely candidates.

We all get stressed at times - and eat things that we are not supposed to. Immediate forgiveness is the only way if that ever happens.

Sorry to hear that you have been having trouble sleeping lately. Stacey (Hickgurltx) has just had a lot of similar problems. In the last few days she has found a herbal remedy that has been working well for her. Drop her a line - and I am sure that she will be delighted to give you details.

I am glad that you have moved back to a "normal" balanced diet. I cannot say that any of the faddy diets ever did anything for me.

Take care
Best wishes
Margaret
 
Hi everyone!:waving:

We have been so busy lately! Thank you for all the support...it has been much needed.:hug2:

We still have no idea who broke in, but we did get some cameras and stickers saying that we have a security system.

I have been eating really well lately, sticking to lots of fruits, veggies, some lean protein and whole grains.

I am still at 197, so I am disappointed, but I know that I am eating the right way.

Well, the last couple of days I probably didn't eat enough food because I was at a Health Fair all day in a factory and all they had was junk so I just ate a bunch of oranges and had a little bit of pulled pork.

So, that manager decided that she did not want to leave. I asked her if she wanted to be incharge of just making sure that our sales goals are met each month and she said yes. But so far I have not been happy with her performance. My other manager is just such a superstar she makes everyone else seem disappointing, she just sold in 1 day the amount we sold at the other Center last month! Anyway, I am very thankful to have her.

Today I am going to get some cleaning done. I have probably 6 baskets of clean laundry that I haven't put away, and the toy room is a disaster!

Well, I am going to catch up on what everyone is doing.

Thanks!
 
Hi Wanna!
I found you!! Yeah!! :hurray:
Been meaning to come on over and check out your diary but I swear here lately life just keeps getting in the way. hahaha
I can so relate to you and the 6 baskets of laundry! LOL Of all the things that I need to do around the house laundry is the one thing that I can safely say that I detest the most!!! It is never ending!!
Like little bunny rabbits, it just keeps growing and growing! haha
I didn't get the chance to read all the way thru your diary and am sorry to hear that you were broke into.
Don't let the scale get at you to much. Mine seems to be stuck in the 190's as well.
Just keep up on eating good and getting some exercise in and this will all work out for ya!
I just know it will!
We can do this together. We are the 190 buddies!
Chow!
 
Bella,
I love reading what you have to say, and before you know it we can be buddies in the 180's. I don't know why, but I hate doing laundry too...not that it's that hard, I just don't know why. I'll throw a load in before I rush out the door to do something, then come home a change them around quick, and before I know it I have all this clean laundry in baskets and nothing in the closet or dresser.

Thanks for stopping by!

You and me could be twins!!! hahaha
Me and laundry sounds like you and laundry! In fact I don't know why we don't just get rid of our dressers since we really don't use them so much! LOL:smilielol5::smilielol5::smilielol5:
 
Hi IWBT,
Just popping in to say hi!! Can you have your great manager train your other manager? I'm glad to see someyone doing laundry,lol. With 3 teenage boys, my laundry pile never goes down! I agree w/the dressers,lol. My kids love to leave their clothing on the floor, at least they know what's dirty and what's clean! I hope you have a great day!
 
She is actually going to do a sales training "seminar" on Friday. But my great manager is 39, the other is like 64. They are both past owners of Inches-A-Weigh, I bought it from the older manager and she bought it from the younger. I am hoping the older will be there for a couple of years and in the mean time my little sales champ will train a replacement for both of them...then she can be my regional manager and trainer and I will open more Centers.

It is so much fun to dream about the future.
 
That's awesome! You should open one up in WI. too! Dreaming about the future is a good thing! I'm dreaming about putting on shorts and a tank top this summer?!! Also hubby getting our basement finished,lol.
 
I'm dreaming of going to college this fall when my youngest starts Kindergarten.
I think I may pursue a career (oooo I love that word 'cuz lets face it working in a freezer is NOT a career) in nursing.
I say if your going to dream then DREAM BIG!!!
