Hi
My update is, I have started running a bit more still on injury recovery but getting a lot better. Stayed of the chocolate over Lent, had my easter egg Sunday and still eating it but I think and hope I could be of the chocolate again, well by the end of the week. I now feel as if every time I eat chocolate I am just eating fat.
I had gone up to 201lbs today I was 196lbs
Thanks for this thread Lynne

Mr Pat, how precious. Don't you just love the sight, touch and smell of a little baby?

Easter is finally gone, let's see.... food holidays we've had to get past recently??? December - Christmas. January - New Years February - Valentines Day. March - my birthday??? April - Easter.

So that means clear sailing until July, right? Oh wait, next month is Mother's Day!

Actually, with spring here and most of the major holidays over, it's a great time to see progress on being healthy, getting fit and staying active. I love this time of year!

Roy, that must be some huge egg!

Mary, at first glance I thought I read you did some "lap dancing", but it was "tap dancing"! I was thinking, where do you learn lap dancing?? I want to learn that! But tap dancing is fun too.

Eliz, you can do it, even with the temptations around.

Erika - these have been on the market for a long time, but have you had the popcorn rice cakes before? My son and I love them and they are only 30 calories each. Some people may feel it's like eating cardboard, but the popcorn one's are pretty decent and way less calories then so many other treats. My 6yr old loves them!

Well gang, it's Tuesday, lots of time left this week to make progress and make good decisions.

I swear that I could almost live on popcorn! What I really enjoy for an afternoon snack is the 100 calorie individual microwave bag, and then I squirt on the zero calorie butter spray (Parkay) for some added flavor.

I like those popcorn and rice cakes too. My husband thinks it is like eating styrofoam.

Salad and crackers for lunch today.

Well, wait a second. I do like real popcorn popped in oil on my stove and then topped with real melted butter and a sprinkling of salt.

Barb - this is what I had for dinner Easter night. My kids will say "mom, will you make your popcorn"? I can't blame them though as they weren't even home - it is a once a month treat for myself and the dogs.

Oh yes Barb, I remember! Like you said - probably just as well.

I remembered my fruit today! Last night's dinner was a couple of scrambled eggs, 2 english muffins (was only going to have one, but then there was only one left so I thought I should eat them both), and some fruit.

Doing good.

I have read all of the comments on this weeks thread but am a little too preoccupied to remember what was said or comment on the specifics, but I do wish you all the best with your healthy eating and weight control goals. A s for my weight I haven't weighed myself but feel heavier and have eaten more than usual and that combined with tapering means a few extra pounds but I will deal with that after Boston.

Thanks for all of your kind comments about Haven, she continues to improve but is still on a feeding tube and her blood count and muscle tone were a little off. She is scheduled to come home either next Monday or Wednesday depending on how she does between now and then. We can't wait to have her home with her parents.

My DW, MIL and GD Brooke are going to Boston with me and are alot less enthusiastic about it now that Haven has been born and the brutal weather forecast has not helped . . . Oh well this will be an adventure we will all remember.
