Hi Everyone!!!
I've missed you all! I hope all is good on the diet and health front for everyone. I can't wait to spend some time catching up on some journals.
I am so sorry that I have been gone for almost two weeks!! ARGHH!! I joined all of these challenges and then, just like that, I disappeared. I have just been so busy with school...I didn't have time to fool around on here....And boy, did I miss it! Well, today I handed in a huge project and I thought, "What do I want to do to reward myself?" And the answer was, "Check in with my FS buddies and get up to date on all the happenings." So here I am.
Diet wise, I am doing pretty well. Started induction again (I joined a challenge, after all. And even though I didn't check in here, I was true to the challenge!! :) ). That has been going pretty good. I'll weigh in tomorrow, so we'll see how that has gone. I did eat a couple onion rings at lunch today...but overall, I've pretty much stuck to it.
I'm eating a lot of nuts. They are portable and easy food on the go. Which is hard to find on Atkins. And since I'm going a lot, it has become a basic food group for me. I know that is probably slowing down losses..but its better than the alternative would be - which is to grab chips and sandwiches. And they are satisfying, so a handful takes me a long ways.
That's about it for me. Nothin else but school work in my life these days. I don't know how people work on their master's degree and have full time jobs. I am only working 25-30 hours a week and taking three classes and I am completely overwelmed. I constantly feel like I'm behind. But I'm beginning to realize that I can do this, too. Last night we got back an assignment in our research class. I was disappointed that I got 13 out of 15 points. I am used to getting perfect grades most of the time - especially when it involves writing or analytical writing. But during the break I talked to the other students in the class and I realized I must have gotten the best grade in the class. So I was feeling pretty good when I left.
Have a good evening all!! Its good to be back!!
