Veronique's Diary

Hey Veronique! So jealous you are going to see Eclipse too - Sarah saw it last night you probably noticed. I want to go this weekend and see it so hopefully I can find someone to go - it's always better with company.
That sucks about your job - I hate mine too but the time off, benefits and pay check keep me going - I would never find anything better however I keep looking. The weather has been pretty crappy here too - we had a great May and then June was just crappy- hopefully July will be more like May!
Your eating still seems really good and on track - good for you for not having chips when feeling down! Keep that up and next week hopefully will be sunnier and the exercise will come back full swing! Have a good day off tomorrow - chat with you Monday!

I was almost going to see the movie alone but then a friend heard I wanted to go so she texted me saying she wanted to go as well so Talk about it you never know who will want to join you!!!

After 7 years at my job I have 3 weeks vaccation but there are always like 2-3 days I need to keep for around Christmas when the office is closed, The paycheck is not that great after all my expenses a covered I make like 400$ a month but I still need that 400$. I think I need to go back to school but do not have the budget for it..mabe once the kids are in school full time in a few years then I can think about that. I need to be challenged sitting looking at the wall doesn't suit my personality or the new life style I want so it's time for me to seriously start looking, this job doesn't fit me.

I was glad I made a good decision and did not eat the chips but really I wasn't hungry so I should have gone running up and down the stairs instead burn calories instead of ingesting them, I am a work in progress and I have a time frame for the weight loss but I can always strech it so I have to focus on a day to day thing!

Yes I am hoping for a hot hot hot July I want to take the kids swimming this summer, I need the sun to come out and do his job damn it lol!

Have a nice long weekend chat with you on Monday!

Happy Friday People i can't be on here long so I will make it quick. Weight today 173lb!!!! So I reached my goal for this week!!!! I did 15 min on the threadmill at my parents yesterday and I ran after my kids so that was my Canada day Workout...No swimming since it was cold out really cold My daughter had to coats on the the parad and my son was wraped in a blanket so we didn't go to the park or anything I wasn't feeling too great but ate healthy and stayed under my pts for the day! Other then that LOVED Eclips I think it was worth standing in line for an hour and it's probably the best out of the 3 movies it stayed very close to the book not to many add or anything really cut out!!! I wish I could have seen it on Imax but at least I got to see it!

Today
Breakfast
12 grain bagel with butter 6pts ( I didn't eat it all I ate 3/4 of it then felt full but will still count it as 6 pts)
Coffee 2pts

Lunch
Tofu stir fry it's really yummy I have no idea how many pts it would be so I will say with a 1/2 cup of rice the tofu and vegies 6pts
14pts gone before diner
leaves me with 9pts for diner wich is more then enought I am thinking Greek Salad with chicken I have been craving it all week!

This morning I had planed to go for a walk at lunch time but then forgot my running shoes at home so I decided that i wasn't gonna walk. I have a 1 hour lunch and most of the time now I am alone so I ate and then had like 45 min left so I told my self just to go for a stroll you know just to get out so I grab my I pod and go out and decided I would walk to a certain poin then kept going and I ended up doing the walk that usually takes me 45 min this time I did it in 40min so I am very proud of myself for pushing myself to keep going. I love the feeling of having done something! LOVE IT!!!! Got to do this more often

Good morning
Whoops this is July 05 not 12!
Ok so I was sick again this weekend, apparently bad things come in three so I should be good for a while, I ate way under my pts value this weekend mostly stuck to fluids and I tried to rest as much as I could with little kids running around. Aside from that nothing much to report certainly no exercise, I am gonna try to get back into it but slowly I don't even think I will go for a walk at lunch today I have a masive head ach I think I might be a bit dehydrated so today plenty of water for me and I am gonna try to eat solids again.

Breakfast
I will attempt oatmeal, banana, pb 10pts
I bought a Fuze drink that comes up to 5pts but will drink it all day long mixed with some water I needed something with electrolytes in it to help me get rehydrated.

Lunch
plain patatoes 2 cups I don't know how many pts like 5
1oz of chicken 1pts

wow that is 21 pts I was planning vegie soup for supper so that should fill in the extra 2 pts.

Ok so due to my not feeling well Breakfast was a 1PTS cup a soup. I can't wait to start feeling better! I need to eat reg foods to get my energy back.
 
Aw sorry to hear you are feeling sick again. That is the worst this time of year! It was so hot here this weekend - got up to 32 degrees! I hope to see Eclipse tonight! I had no idea there were more books and movies after this one - I thought it was finally going to be the end, lol! Rest up and got lots of water!

Nope not the END lol One more book and apparently 2 more movies!!! I love it! Out of the 3 movies so far this one is truest to the book. I think this one was made to be a movie or mabe it's just better writting or and directing!

I am trying to drink water but I can't drink the same amounts I usually do but I am trying! It's been very hot here too but at least not sticky no humidity but appenratly that will change today!
 
HAHa I had to go on somewhere and write this down!! A new girl started at work in the mail room today...The job I am very able to do but the boss won't give it to me! Well she was here on time today and then left at lunch and hasn't been heard of since, she lasted only 1/2 a day here...I feel tough lol I lasted 7! Everyone is kind of laughing my boss ain't the best at hiring or making decision but I don't think it would be smart to be to vocal about it so I am shutting up and laughing internally instead!
 
Way to go on meeting your goal for 173! That's awesome! :) Also Eclipse was my favorite of the books AND the movies so far. I saw it twice already... at the midnight showing and on opening day! lol Sorry I haven't been around much but I see you're doing good so keep up the good work!
 
My boyfriend and I saw Eclipse yesterday. Oh wow it totally rocked. HE even liked it! I've read the entire series 4 times. lol That's my guilty pleasure.
 
I really need to catch up on these vampire series. :) So many fans. Love it. I watched a few episodes of True Blood a few weeks back, and loved it. Need to find the rest of the first season. But also want to watch the twilight series (don't think I can read the books). Sounds like fun.
 
Hi Veronique,
Been offline for a while, but good to see you're still here. How funny about the girl in the mail room!

Thank you and I am hoping to be at 171 by friday but I can honestly say I am not gonna work out in this heat, so this week I am gonna focus on eating healthy and that is it! I want to go see it again in IMAX this time but money it tight so we will see how the next couple of weeks are gonna go, hubby is getting lazer eye surgery and he has to be there for like 5 hours I might drop him off and go see the movie lol and come back to after so I don't have to sit around for 5 hours, or mabe i will save some cash and just go walking around a nearby mall we will see. I get that you are busy enjoying your life so I don't hold it against you that you are not online so much, it's summer after all who wants to be stuck inside all day! I am gonna have to check on your journal to see how you are doing!

I read them twice I probably would read them again but I had to give them back to my niece lol!

I haven't seen true blood cause I don't have the chanel for it at home but i am thinking of buying it on DVD but we will see. I have watched a bit of Vampire Diaries and it's good. Love the Twilight book they are easy to read with the exception of the second book that is a bit longer to read. Third movie is by far the best of the 3 hopefully they only keep getting better.

I know we all wanted to laugh cause no one actually think our boss should do the hiring he is just not good with people, they should just let me do the job I am already trained for it I did it for 8month but whatever I am appliying at other companies right now I need a fresh start else where.
 
July 6 2010

Good Morning people....Wow I got to talk about this heat! I wish we had central A/C. We only have a little window A/C in our bedroom wich meant all for familly members and the dog sleeping in my tiny bedroom. My son kept waking up cause he tought it was funny that he could touch me lol He just had to stand in his portable crib and wack me on the butt and then he would laugh and my daughter I had never realised how much she moves at night it's a wonder she doesn't fall off the bed more often, she has a good kick I can tell you that lol! So needless to say how little sleep we all got oh well it's July and I don't want to complain to much abou this cause I hate cold wheather and I don't want to be one of those people never happy with the weather you know!

today
breakfast
banana, pb, oatmeal 8pts
coffee 2 pts

Lunch
frozen diner 5pts

Diner
It depends where we end up being cause it will be too hot to eat at home.
I have 15 pts before diner wich leaves me with 8pts for diner wich is plenty!

I will have no problem drinking tons of water! so that is my fitness plan today water , water , water, and I have to do the mail run so that will be my only walking!
 
Hey Veronique - I totally hear you on the heat thing! We all complained that June was too cold and now it's just too hot - can't win! I agree though I would rather take hot humid than cold snow. They pump the AC at work but I don't think I will get to walk at lunch as planned - I'd get too sweaty to come back and work. I had a hard time getting my usual water in yesterday too but going to try harder today. I loved Eclipse and think I need to buy the fourth book to find out if she ends up with Jacob - I love him!! Try to stay cool tonight and feel better friend!
