I'm so glad you pop-in law is feeling better!

Food looks great, and good for you for getting out there for a run, even if you felt kind of sore from your other workouts!

Have a great weekend!

Well guys, the theme for my weekend eating was: carbs, carbs and more carbs. Not even gonna post it.

Back on track tomorrow, hopefully.

Tomorrow is my FIRST day at my new job! It's actually same job, same desk, same everything...except I directly report to a different person and my paychecks come directly from the Federal Government. I have orientation tomorrow morning and I'm not sure when it'll be over. Hopefully I can run out somewhere & pick up a salad for lunch.

WISH me luck, peeps!!!

Hi Kim!!!!

Hope your first day at your old job was great!!

Don't stress over the weekend eating. Tomorrow is a new day!!!!

I'm still thinking about running that race in OC this summer . I just have to see that it doesn't conflict with anything here!

Take care and keep on running!!!!

I would go over, but she never invites me

I did talk to her on the phone for a few minutes today though--didnt tell her were about to send out a search party! ill hunt her down if i must hahaah

 

[kimwim8]

awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. I'm so loved.

I'm sorry guys. I've been pretty blah lately. I'll DEFINITELY check in tonight.

 

[toystoryduo]

Kimmy Kim. I hope everything is okay, sweetie. Sending some your way.

 

[kimwim8]

Thanks so much guys. Love ya lots!

I'm ok. Work just stinks right now - I can't wait for Janine to get back. But I did go see Skyelar at lunch today...so she made me feel a little better.

Running hasn't happened in a while. I have new hours at work, which unfortunately make me go in earlier...so I'm finding it harder to run in the morning. I need to sit down with DH and come up with certain nights that he can come home by 7 and I can head right out for an evening run. All I need is 2 nights/week and then I can run in the morning on the weekend. It's do-able, right?

I'm also frustrated with myself for all of the crap I've been eating. This is gonna sound lame, but July 5th (we have 2 nights out and 2 parties between now & July 4th) I am going back on strict Nancy plan. I am pulling out the old food journals I had to hand in to her every week and I'm buying that food and eating exactly what I did when I was strict on the plan. If I do that for a month, I should be able to get the 6 or 7 pounds back off or at least be very close to having it off.

Ok, I'm feeling better now. It feels good to get it out there. Sorry be so down the last couple of days, and I won't disappear on you guys anymore.

Thanks so much for checking in on me and for concern. That's why I love you guys!

I'm going out for happy hour with the girls from work tomorrow night (including Janine) to celebrate mine and Janine's new jobs. And Saturday night, DH and I along with BIL and his girlfriend are going to an AC casino to see "Movin' Out" which is a Billy Joel tribute show. Should be a fun weekend!

 

[traceycooper]

Hi Kim

Have a great happy hour (or 2)

[Blueeyes101817]
