I started my first day of work today which went fine. It is helpful to be putting what I learned into action. I still have a lot to learn, but it went well. I will really have to be careful about the eating though. They welcome me and the other new girl today by making a sausage and egg casserole which I had a very small portion, then there was leftover pizza for lunch and then they got Dairy Queen as a special treat to welcome us in. I got a small sundae as opposed to a blizzard- so I think about 7 points versus a whole day's worth of points- as most people ordered. Even at that though, those things will still add up and I need to watch it. I was planning to finally get to the gym tomorrow morning before work, but found out my daughter has an award ceremony at school she really wants me to attend. So, that comes first. I've been walking, but it's not the same results as the gym and my belly is getting squishier. Don't worry, I am not feeling down, but just know I need to get back it things hard or I will go back up. I will figure it out. I want to see 139/140 at the end of this month. I will need to get back counting points to get there. I will count tomorrow!!!

I used to think it was tough being a stay at home mom having a big ol' house full of food to myself but then I went back to work and discovered it's even worse there! I'm glad you were able to make some healthy choice amongst the calorie laden fair. Getting back to counting points is a good idea. I stopped for a while there and did good to start but then started slipping back into old habits. So I know of what you speak! And I'm certain you will be able to lose 3 or 4 pounds by the end of the month. You can do it!

thanks for the comment on my journal, it really has been difficult to get to 135 and keep it, it goes way back up and down. i need to record it! anyway, you are being so good, gym or not, you are staying aware and keep on w/ a walk, you are going to leave the 140's soon i am sure of it!

Although it's hard to have all that food around you, it sounds like at least you have a good work environment-- friendly people welcoming the newbie :) Your willpower is awesome-- you will hit your 140 goal, I'm sure! Have fun at your daughter's ceremony!

Sounds like you made the best of things when presented with such a tempting array of goodies! I'm sure they'll get over the excitement of you starting soon and stop plying you with treats!! Have a good time at your daughter's ceremony! :)
