Okay, I’ve totally gone into the writing cave, and it’s stocked with chips and popcorn. Not good. And y’know what’s worse? I don’t care at this point because my deadline in 10 days away and it’s crunch time.
This is my biggest struggle, to try and care about what I eat, and to try to be active when I am so deep into my head that I don’t even know who *I* am…only who my characters are.
How are you doing?
I almost think the good thing about kids is that they do, to a certain extent, keep me grounded in the real world. OTOH….if I didn’t have them, think how much cheaper my food bill would be :cursing:
Seriously, not so great. But we were gone last weekend. Road trips aren’t real conducive to eating salad LOL I’m having serious sugar cravings and I can’t figure out why. *sigh*
Sasha, just think, when you’re on your high from finishing the MS you’ll be buzzing and you can use that to workout at the gym 😉
No weight changes here, which is actually a HUGE relief because we were on holiday last week and it was all buffet food. I was worried, and tbh my main goal was to minimise the damage! LOL Luckily they had a great selection of salads, veggies and fruit, fish and lean meat, and I stuck to wine. So, no weight loss, but thankfully no gain either.
Amie – your sugar cravings, is it getting colder where you are? It is here in England and I always crave more comfort food at this time of year.
Amie, I’m in awe of all who write with a family running around the house distracting them.
YAY Saskia on not gaingin while on holiday!! That’s an accomplishment. And yes, You can bet I’ll be pretty determined when this is over. I’ll be at the gym 5 days a week. :sport:
OK, I think I’m finally stating to accept the new boyfriend isn’t going anywhere.
What’s the point? Well, he likes to take me out and I’ve srt of been in well enjoy this while it lasts cause when he dumps you it’s back to lean cuisines for one. :tongue:
Thing is, he loves me and he’s talking houses and futures, so last night when he took me out, I didn’t eat like it was the last meal of the condemned, in fact I brought more food home then I ate and gave it to my kids. 🙂
It’s something at least. 🙂
Better than I thought. But still not where I want to be. I’ve been trying to shake this ‘thing’ making me feel icky. It’s been a bummer.
I’ve been very weak – for about a week. Unfortunately, with the temps dropping I’m wearing more sweatshirts and sweaters. When the bulges are hidden, I’m less concerned about trying to shrink them 🙁 And yes, this time of year most definitely brings about cravings for those comfort foods.
Saskia…YES it has. Fall has finally arrived. And on top of the sugar cravings I’m playing hell getting out of bed *sigh*
Sasha I’ve decided they are old enough to be left alone a few hours at a time so I can go to Starbucks and write. It’s either that or sneak in some writing time at work….I’ve pretty much given up writing with them around and by the time I get home in the evening I”m beat.
(((Tess))) I can relate.
Sasha, I’ve been eating more peanut butter (sometimes with jam) but it’s not helping as fast as I’d like. Oh…. does that mean I should stop eating the peanut butter cookies and those peanut butter daisy chocolates and…. 😳
:fight: I’m still alive! I don’t know what happened to October! I turned 39 yesterday and I have been doing my spa’s (not really work) but it pays my bills and buy’s me books! Any way I can’t believe I have’nt been here since the Sept 26th! I’m not sure about my weight, I’m to tired to check…had a spa tonight. I’ll let you know next Thurs.
