Lena's corner

I'm so glad for you, Lena! Cerelly's right, 27 lbs is AMAZING! That's so much hard work and dedication! Hell, FIVE lbs is a lot of work and dedication IMO. Glad life is good and that soups sure sounds delicious! Have a great weekend!
 
thanx valerie :D i do agree with you. losing any amount of pounds but doing it right way for me is an accomplishment :D

so today didn't really start that good. for breafast i had sandwiches and yogurt and then for lunch two small tortilla wraps with red kidney beans, salsa, and chicken breast. after that i had 1/3 of a piece of cake (basically because i didn't want to end up rude - we croatians get like that if you offer us thing the third time we will accept because otherwise the other side may find it rude if you did refuse) and now i had soy pudding. but this evening i will have salad and i had some minestrone left from yesterday's dinner (but only half of serving). so that's me food wise.

i also did some shopping today :D i bought a pair of jeans size 16 (UK size) and they fit like someone made them just for me, so i'm really and i mean really happy about that. my bf is a bit sick and his working like that. he can't take sick leave because he's not even legally employed. he's in bosnia and there when it comes to work is complete chaos. even croatia is similar but things are improving. so i'm a bit worried about him.
 
Hey Lena, 27 pounds is really great and taking it off the right way makes it much less likely to come back. I read your previous entry as "Tomato and cherry fudge". What an image that was. Well, like they say in Croatia, "Gotta Split"
 
hahahahaha :D:D you made me laugh so much right now with that "Gotta Split"
lots of english-speaking people laugh their asses off when they hear there is a town called Split in croatia :D

i didn't see that lol so i ate 1 tomato and a cup of cherry fudge just to clarify.
 
Girl you can do this and i want you to know i just love you and your attitude dont let anyone change you because that spunk is what makes you special and walking is great for the anger and losing!

YAY for pants that fit!!!

I really hope everything is fine with you poor, sick boyfriend. I don't know the deal with Bosnia but complete chaos is NEVER good. Take care!

aww you're so sweet. thank you :D and you're so right...i do get a lot of anger out just by exercising and definitely by walking, although i enjoy walking when i need to clear my thoughts.

bf is doing much better :) as for bosnia...i don't think that can ever be explained the way it should be lol...scientists are still trying. when ex yugoslavia fell apart bosnia and herzegovina was a aprt that each side wanted to get their hands on, claiming it was theirs to start with. the war from croatia transferred there and all hell broke loose. the war did end there in 1995, but the wounds that country has suffered will remain for a long time.

there are three nations and three religions, and each was hurt enormously. piece is there, but politics is running the show...not to mention the corruption. well one can only hope thing will change one day, like its changing slowly in croatia.

i'm gonna stop here because i just might continue writing about this until tomorrow hehe.

just for the record i did pretty good with food today, but i'm pmsing like crazy so i just wanna binge. thank god for strawberries since i'm binging on them all afternoon.
 
i feel like that when i go visit my bf or in dubrovnik...so out of everything and the best thing is i really don't want to know what's going on hehe sometimes its so good to be in that kind of bubble :)

i wasn't online much today, but that's because there were some thunder storms here and power was on and off all the time.
so i'll post more tomorrow hopefully

hugs,
Lena
 
Thunder and lightning here at the moment as well. Tomorrow 26 C, so the thunderstorms probably go on. Strawberries rule!!! :hug2:

I would love to binge on strawberries today & sit & enjoy the beautiful choas of a thunderstorm. Instead its all hot & dry here.. hasn't rained for a week.

Hope tomorrow you have sunshine & many reasons to smile.
 
Hey you - I just wanted to come by an show my smiling face - I hope your boy friend is ok - Im sure he will be - he has alot to look forward to and to keep him going *Wink* I think your a great catch Lena - your an awesome wmn !!!
 
now i'm looking at this 209 lbs on my ticker and i can't believe it. i lost 27 lbs????? and these almost 5 months now have passed so quickly. gotta keep this focus :D

That's great. Isn't it good to know that you have already changed so much. Already you are a different person, in many ways and enjoying your life so much more. Congratulations. :)

I 'm glad your boyfriend is feeling better. It must be extra hard for you both whenever one of you is having trouble.

so its monday, i have tons to do but i guess i like challenges...i'm always on fire when it comes to that lol. i just prepared two projects and am just waiting to talk to bosses if they want to add something. so i'll be finishing that up today or tomorrow. which is why i won't be able to go to my aerobics class, but i hope i'll do some walking at least.

my menu for today:

breakfast: dr. oetker muesli with low fat yogurt
snack. 0.1% fat fruit yogurt (330 grams)
lunch: lettuce, 2 tomatoes and 1/2 cucumber with balsamico dressing
snack: probably won't have one since i'll be working, i i finish early i might have ice cream
dinner: pasta with tuna
 
well i'm almost done, the bosses said they don't need anything else added so i'm just waiting for several professors to give me their signitures and then i'm done. i won't be at work for next three days since i have meetings at university headquarters. and i was hoping i would be left alone for awhile. but what can i say i'm popular lol.

my food for today:

breakfast: dr. oetker apricot muesli with low fat yogurt
lunch: sandwich from caffeteria (not what i wanted but i didn't prepare anything since i got home late from work and went straight to bed lol)
dinner: pasta and beef goulash
snack: soy vanilla pudding

so i'm getting some pampering today :D i'm getting a pedicure :) feet gotta look god for the summer hehehe
