Then, after the WW meeting, I went to the fancy-dancy specialty running store (where only the REAL runners shop....
) and had the whole biometric foot thingy done in order to get the right type of running shoe for my foot. (Everything I have been reading about running says that having a properly fitted shoe by a specialty running store is critical...and that running shoes should be like a size bigger than your regular shoes, etc. All this stuff I had no idea about.) I bought me some new sneaks for my new running feet. Now, though, since I took the whole morning running around to meeting and shoe shopping, I don't have time for my run!
I am going to try and fit it in later today.
More to follow....(aren't you just thrilled at the thought???
)
You do belong in the fancy-dancy running store. Way to shop! We are proud of you!! When you decide on a shoe, and have worn out a pair or two, check into buying them from Road Runner Sports or shoe buy. RoadRunner has a .com and a really big store in Portland Oregon. You'll get a better deal. My husband and I were fitted at a Jock and Jill in Seattle a few years ago and they outfitted him in a good shoe for his foot, but not I. I hope your new shoes are great, but don't be afraid to go back for help if they are not working. Take a look at the socks too. I like these ones from Nordy's, and they are great for WDW too. My cousin is working hard to one day qualify for Kona, I'll check out his array of running catalogs and mags. Ask around for a really good athletic podiatrist. A doc who works with orthos. maybe in the same office. So happy you got new sneakers. I put a pair of new outdoor running shoes on yestersay. I really feel like I can run faster and jump higher. Way to go runner. Happy that WW is better at your new location. I love snow, I love snow. I can't say it enough. The dry snow, not this wet stuff we once in awhile get here. I grew up in Eastern WA and the snow there is dry and beautiful. I envy your beautiful snow, but I can't imagine the cold. The cold here is wet cold that chills you to the bone. Yes, I would move to Maine in a heartbeat. There are LL Bean outlets, right??
Munk- Can't wait to hear about your trip when you get back!!
Grumps- Welcome back!!
Kat- You are beautiful!!
Our Beautiful Bride- Enjoy this special time! You will make good food choices.
Dawn- Please tell everyone again about the Disney Tupperware. The other thing is how great tupperware is for portioning out salads, veggie servings, fruit etc.
You know- we tend to count calories, fat grams, minutes and miles exercised, but we need to make sure we get fiber, servings of fruit and veggies. Tupperware helps us buy veggies, and keep them fresh. The snack cups are great, but I like the cereal bowls. I put a cup or more of frozen berries (usually blueberries or triple berry mix) in the morning into a cereal bowl-put the lid on and then at lunch slice a
banana
into it. The berries are thawed, but really cold (not Maine cold, but cold) and it is such a treat. This can be done the night before, in the am or a few bowls at a time. This is a great trick of ours when traveling.
Those sheerly elegant bowls look great for salads.I love the quick shake container, THE FRIDGESMART are the best for helping us eat healthy foods!, and just maybe some people might be able to drink water out of a princess or tink cup a little easier, or at least it might be fun. Yes, Mrs. Miller is known for her princess tupperware, I miss eating lunch with my kiddos. I always had healthy food in the tupperware. I want those Mickey Pops to make berry pops. I have a set of the plain ones and use them for WDW travel-Jewelry, Meds, vitamins, Q-tips (they are great for Q tips). You could even use the tray and have it set up. Yes, I can't wait to pack for a WDW vacation. Many months from now.
Sept.-Yes, you get to go shopping!! You go girl!
Susan- Hope all is going well
Bird- how is your Grandfather?
Goof- You are doing a great! Great attitude! Way to stay away from the treats.
Sept. -We are all losers!! Thank you for the encouragement
To All- Have a great weekend. Happy Leap Year!
Fun ipod tip- I have a couple
Christmas songs
added to my mix it makes me happy, grateful AND how much weight I will have lost by December!!!
I was already late for my meeting, so going around to the street was NOT an option! I did manage to make it down and back up in one piece and was only a few min late. I took the STREET on the way back!! 
I am so sorry. I hope that you can find something else that appreciates you, or get this place to figure out what a good employee you are. I have been there and it really, really sucks. My advice is that you gave the place 3 years, maybe it is time to see what else is out there that may move your career forward. After all, you have to look out for you! 
But I was heartbroken when I saw this picture. This is me at my worst. 
It doesn't help that I had a horrible hair cut and it was early May so I had no tan and no highlights in my hair either...but it is the weight that kills me here...
