Chris1979's Journal, 08 July 2010

I'm going to do my official weigh in tomorrow for the week. I'm excited that the scale is moving downwards! I'm working on cutting the carbs. Today I switched my normal bowl of cereal for eggwhites with a sprinkling of shredded cheddar cheese (reduced sodium). For lunch I brought strawberries, raspberries, a banana, and a clementine. I will consciously be drinking as much water as possible. Salem told me I look like I'm losing weight. It's great when the person who sees you the most can see a difference. :)

He's off to Baltimore w/ his best friend Lou today for their good friend Matt from HS's bachelor party. He told me they are going to a strip club. Awesome! Just what your fiance wants to hear. I was just like you can look but please don't touch or give our hard-earned money to any of those chicas. ;)

This is going to be an expensive pet month. Tomorrow Lily goes to the vet for her annual visit and then both her and Howie are getting groomed at PetSmart on Saturday. I don't want to even think about the bill! But they are 100% worth it.

THREE THINGS I'M GRATEFUL FOR TODAY:
1) Coming to work by myself this morning meant I could relax/ take my time
2) Some "me" time this weekend
3) The awesome people on FatSecret

Have a great Thursday! :)

Chris it does seem to give us a boost when someone notices our losses and our efforts. You are lucky to have someone as in tune as Salem. I’m sure you don’t have to worry about the strip club! Lol Boys will be Boys! Congrats on the loss!!! You are definitely headed in the right direction.

Yay! So true that it takes a lot for someone who sees us everyday to see a difference. I'm sure you're looking great. My husband wasn't in a crew with guys who were big into the strip club thing (in finance you really can't escape that world). But his brother was running his bachelor party so I knew what would happen. I just said I didn't want to ever hear anything about it. And, yeah, vet visit suck!

Christina it is so wonderful to hear you feeling so positive about YOU!!! Glad you are feeling motivated and healthy!! Are you still working out? Tomorrow sounds like a group weigh-in day!! Me too!! I'm not all that excited about it though ... but I will face the music and embrace it as a tool, right? As for the Strip Club ... all I can say is too bad you can't join Salem!!! Some of those places are quite a bit of fun for a couple ... there is a place in Portland we have gone that also serves an incredible $6.00 steak dinner!! LOL!!!

Hey Chris.... Doesn't it feel good to get some alone time? LoL... I'm sure by the time Salem will return he will notice all your hard work in the weight loss section =) Keep up the great work.

Christina you can't believe it but the $6.00 steak is actually good!! It comes with fries or baked potato and a trip to the salad bar. Yes, believe it or not there is actually a salad bar in this place!! The place has almost as many women in it as men ... not counting the dancers!! It is a real hoot and we always have a great time there!! Okay ... so now you are thinking ... we thought we knew Moose ... what is she up to????
