Lili's Diary

ham, grapefruit, and rye bread--OK I'm not digging this menu as much :) Good day none the less.
LOL funny man
Hi Skinny! I thought I'd stop by and see how you were doing.
Man, your workouts make me exausted just reading them. I feel worn out just from the walking I do. Congrats on being way more dedicated than I am!
You are halfway to your goal. Congratulations!
Hi Jeff, thanks for dropping by! I'm going to check your diary out to see how you are. I'm no more dedicated than you...it's all good
You sound busy :). Good job for today Skinny!
Thanks Blancita. It was busy and I was feeling really blah today about a work project and then some guy told me I exude savoir faire...whatever that means. So I looked it up when I got home and it literally means "knowing how to do". He thought I exuded confidence...boy I sure have them fooled. Oh well. They say fake it til you make it. I started a project over a year ago, which involves working closely with another government department...except they are very pompous and annoying and can set you up for all sorts of falls in political forums...so one has to be quite alert with these sheisters. I will use my savoir faire on them. ha ha ha
 
What a fantastic compliment! Everyone says that the sexiest thing about a woman or anyone for that matter, is confidence! Therefore, if you exude confidence, you exude sex appeal. haha hell yes! I admire you for even being able to work in a government/political environment, I'd go totally insane.

Yummy food, is your Lentil soup the Progresso kind as well?
 
I buy canned lentil soup, but it's not Progresso. I actually don't even know what brand. I should make it home made because anything tinned has too much salt.
LOL Totally insane...yes, my friend, this soul-killing bureaucratic job is indeed slowly turning me thusly. Bwoo ha ha ha:eek: I have a fantastic boss and excellent co-workers who do a wonderful job of putting up with my bitching.:D
 
I know about the canned stuff, it makes me mad actually. I've recently realized that anything processed is never fully healthy. It's either sodium, aspertame, sugar, massive doses of weird chemicals, dyes, and/or a combination of everything.

LOL I'm sorry! I'm so happy you work with cool people though, that makes all the difference.
 
Take a chance, take a chance, take a chance, chance, chance. My first reaction to the new avatar was that it was a band :)

My first thought when I hear ABBA is Muriel's Wedding, one of my all time favorite movies. Oh my god, I love Toni Collette!
 
ooo i hated Muriel's wedding. God that drove me insane!

ABBA is all good, lol love the av :D

lukewarm: aint that the truth, i still do aspartamine, but not the rest.
 
Oh I know, unfortunately I sort of end up ingesting all of them in some form because I'd be going to the grocery store every single day if I always bought everything fresh...and also I didn't know there was salt in lemon pepper seasoning (duh me) and didn't realize it until after I sprinkled it all over my fish tonight. Cannot get away from it! Salt nightmares.

And the new avatar is great! I didn't catch it at first!
 
morning Ms Skinny!! I'm happy to see I'm not the only one on here that eats fried eggs. I love mine sunny side up! I know it's gross right?? Well, my hubby gags when he knows I'm cooking them, OH WELL! I never cook them in oil, I have some good pans from Pampered Chef that I use and I don't have to put anything on them when I fry. YEAH, keeps the calories down. I don't eat them all the time, but I do love them! I hope your day is a good one, and that work is good! I'll stop by later to check in!

Really ugly day ahead of me tomorrow with work, a meeting I dread. Afraid I fell off the wagon and ate my face off for supper, won't say what, in case it tempts my dear readers. I don't feel bad about it. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Tomorrow is another day and I plan to take real good care of myself including a workout tomorrow night. I should have seen it coming though..this morning I felt really rebellious against my food. I looked at my apple on my desk and ... I ... HATED my apple!!!! I am so bored with my food. Need to change things up starting next time I buy groceries. And I've been upping my veggie and fruit intake and that's been getting to me. Plus I have had insomnia lately, so everything combined is making me a little edgy.
Breakfast; 2 slices of rye toasted with 2 tbsp. peanut butter, 1 cup grapefruit juice, small apple.
Lunch; tuna sandwich on rye bread, mayo. 1 cup sugar snap peas, 2 rice crackers, 10 almonds.
Supper; ridiculous
Walk the dog 1 mile.

Tomorrow as I drive to another city, I'll do some mental preparation and deep breathing, as well as take my dear friend Rufus. That way after the meeting, I can hug my puppy and all will be right in the world. My boss is such a dear. I phoned him on his cell while he was on the road and he was a real support. He said with a group like this (angry, unpredictable, negative) I should remain calm and no matter what they say, just make sure I get my message out. I've learned a lot from men by working alongside them. Then he said come visit him in his office after I get back to town. He's got such huge things to deal with, far more politically charged situations than mine, yet he still has time for me. I love my boss. He said don't lose sleep over this, you promise? ha ha he knows me well. Gotta go walk the puppy. Bye!

Hey Skins, good attitude about the dinner. No harm done in the grand scheme of life. We all deserve a nice meal sometimes dont we.

You're lucky about your boss, I also have a love of a boss. I've worked for him for over 10 years now and he is so sweet. During my pregnancy he'd call me at least 3 times a week and tell me to work from home and I can basically come and go as I please as long as I get my work done.

I'm sending good vibes your way for tomorrow. I have full confidence in you. Just relax and be yourself! That'll get you through.
 
Your fine, and you have eaten well for weeks, so this one over done dinner is not going to hurt you. Plus, your already syked to do better tomorrow. At least you walked your mile and that's still getting some exercise in, so don't beat yourself up over it. Meetings can be stressful, so hang in there, it will probably fly by tomorrow, and think of it this way, it's almost the weekend. Enjoy your night!:)

Hey,

I agree, you do have a good attitude about supper and not feeling bad about it. That's how it should be, because everyone deserves a treat especially after working so hard and guilt should not follow that! I must admit I'm super curious about what your supper was, lol.
 
Hey Anna, good luck with the meeting. For me, I don't have that sleepless night after the meeting........I have my sleepless night before in dreadful anticipation. So I show up tired, cranky, and dreading the day. I think bringing the puppy along is a brilliant idea. No matter how the day goes, the puppy will just cuddle up to you and think you are wonderful, brilliant, caring! And the good news..............the puppy will be right! Heck with the rest 'em!
 
You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life

LOL thanks for making me laugh. Would you believe I won $25 one night as karoake Queen? :rotflmao:

You can sing in my diary ANY time T2!
 
Boo meetings. Hooray puppies!

I think one of the most important skills in life is not staying on your feet, but being able to pick yourself up when you fall and keep on going. Just because you lost a battle doesn't mean you lose the war.
