Jen's Diary of Random Stuff.... Take Two!!

AThanks Greg, PEC, and Free!!!

The Olive Garden was delicious! I thoroughly enjoyed it, that's for sure. So far, the scale says I haven't gained anything from it. I'm not really sure I believe that or not, but I'll go with it. lol! 6 more lbs to meet my end of October goal!

Today I'm just working. I picked up a writing job a couple weeks ago, and it's been keeping me pretty busy. Unfortunately it's not about anything interesting... AT ALL. It's kind of mind numbing, and makes me want to munch just to stay awake. So, that's not good. :eek: On top of that, I've been in a funk the last couple weeks. I'm doing my best to not let that get me off track though. :)

I hope everyone else is doing well!

It seems like a few people have been in a funk the past few weeks... I'm hoping today will be better for everyone now that it's a new week, and at least where I am the weather has been beautiful! That helps!


Keep up the hard work! You're an inspiration! :hurray:
 
Holy crap, last time I checked your thread you were celebrating a 30lb loss!

You absolute minx, you're slaying it! Congratulations!

Thank you! :) I think the weather is a contributing factor for me. It's been rainy, cold, and dreary for a while now. Lack of sunshine is definitely not good for me, and I usually find myself in a funk all winter. I just have to not let it get to me, or at least not use it as an excuse to stuff my face..lol.

AI really wish you could "smack the sense" into a person. If that was possible, I'd be smacking the shit outta someone right now.

Just kidding...maybe? haha! I need a drink.

lol Jen :)


Yeah, I know how that goes, for sure! Just be careful as you don't want to introduce too many calories with drinking :]

lol...oh, I know. That alcohol may taste good, but it's horrible calorie wise. Which is why I don't do it much. Maybe 2 or 3 times a month, and it doesn't take much to get me tipsy. I'm a lightweight in that dept...lol. I didn't end up having anything last night though. Was too busy arguing all night. :mad:

UGH. I plan on working pretty much all day. My kids go with their dad tonight, so I have to use my free time tonight to catch up on work. So...yeah, it's going to be a super fun day! lol! And to top it off, I get to write about super FUN things....like credit cards, investing in gold, banks, and best of all .....currency conversions! Exciting stuff there.:rolleyes: This work batch suuuucks. UUUUUUUUUUUGGH...I don't wanna write it!

I'm so crabby today... and I don't even care..lol.

siiiigh..ok. I'm off to work.

*drags feet*

lol..thanks! I did get it all done and submitted yesterday. I actually finished it sooner than I thought I would, so that was nice. Today is my day off from my writing job, and it is much needed. My brain feels like mush. lol!

So far today, I've cleaned the house and gave the doggy her bath. She was not happy with me. She definitely gave me the big sad puppy dog eyes, like...."mom...why are you doing this to me?!" But she looks and smells a lot better! Yay! I can't stand stinky dog smell...lol! My plans for the rest of the day are just to finish cleaning the bathroom(I ran out of shower cleaner, so I have to go to the store), and take a nap! lol!

Oh, and I did a sneak peak on the scale this morning, and I'm at the same weight as last week. So I'm going to be super good today, and hopefully the scale will budge a little by tomorrow! *fingers crossed* :)

AWeigh-in day results... I stayed the same this week. Which is good, I guess. I could have gained something, but didn't. Hopefully I'll have a loss next week. :)

Breaking even isn't a bad thing, Jen! Like you said - No gain!

You'll have a loss next week, for sure! :hurray:
 
AOk, so I haven't been doing so good the last couple days. I don't really have any excuse either...lol. I was just bad. I did pretty good during the day, but have eaten way too much for dinner. Tomorrow has to be better! I don't want to gain this week. I did however do a TON of walking today for my son's field trip, including up and down a bunch of hills. So that's one good thing. I'm already sore too. I'm sure I'll really be feeling it tomorrow..lol!

AOk, so, tomorrow I WILL be better! SIGH. I don't know what is up with me this week. I don't know if I just need a few days off or what, but I can't stop feeding my face...lol.

AAwww...thanks guys! I'm still hanging in there! Fell off the wagon for about a week and a half, and gained 3 lbs. BUT, I got back on track last Wednesday and have already lost half of what I gained during my little eating frenzy! :blush5: I'm not sure I'll meet my October goal now...8lbs in 2 and a half weeks? I don't know about that? ...... but I'm just gonna keep plugging away!

I've been pretty busy with stuff lately, but things are starting to settle down. Which means less anxiety and less stress eating. So that's good..lol. The only big thing on my 'to do' list this week is finding Halloween costumes for my kids! Which I'm super excited about. I love ALL things Halloween!! Costumes, decorations, pumpkin carving!! :pumpkin:....and usually the candy, but I gotta keep my hand out of the candy bucket this year! lol!

I hope everyone else is doing good! Hopefully I can catch up diaries soon! I'm off to get some work done now though. :seeya:

ADUDE, I just had this whole long post typed out and I hit a button and it disappeared. GRRRR... I hate it when that happens!

Here's the condensed version...

I wanna take a nap.

I'm ready for lunch!

The dude that jumped from space yesterday? He has some balls...holy crap! I about needed a xanax just watching it..lol!

Chef brought me home a piece of some yummy sweet potato bread he made at work... and I want to lather myself in the apple cinnamon butter he made to go with it. haha! :p

We're celebrating an anniversary this weekend!!... It's been 2 years now since I lost my ever-loving mind and agreed to meet, in person, the funny crazy guy that I'd been talking to for months(8 to be exact) on this forum! I don't know what I was thinking...haha! Wouldn't change a thing though! :)

....and my eating is going good! yay!



[quote name="Free" url="/t/52857/jens-diary-of-random-stuff-take-two/280#post_839042"]UR weight loss & ability 2 keep it off is very impressive. Keep up the good work!:hurray:
