This weekend is the annual slow-pitch tournament in Edson. My hubbies family goes to it every year, they have a team that is entered to play and usually they do fairly good - especially for a team that only plays once a year! This weekend is kinda like a family reunion/ get together, it is nice cause my family never used to get together for anything except Christmas, Easter and maybe Thanksgiving! Games start Friday and teams come from all over to play, for the more serious leagues it is quite the tournament but for teams like ours it is all about having a good time! There are 24 diamonds and they are usually full from 8am till 8pm, all weekend! They usually have a "home run contest" that I have never gone to watch but have always wanted too, maybe this year? I played once on the team and was hurtin for like a week after! This year I will not be playing even though I am probably in better shape now then I was 3 years ago when I played? I'll play if they need me too but so far I'm not on the list. For the last couple of years our team name has been "Wickedly Awesome 2", we wore bright yellow and orange t-shirts with 6R and 9R on the backs of them so we were the 69R's ! he he This year they are changing our team name and jersey too a farm animal theme, I forget the name of the team but it is something like "Farmer Tator Tot's Team" ? My hubbies uncle is the coach and he will be "Farmer Tator" and all the players will be his farm animals. The t-shirts have different animals on them to depict what they are, there are horses, cows, cats (pussies), dogs (b*tchs), a donkey (a$$), pig and a rooster (cock) oh, and a sheep that the farmer might chase every so often with velcro gloves! -- it should be fun! he he Hopefully it is good weather this year, one year it snowed and we were playing ball with toques and mittens!

Tuesday tidbits ...

I'm so happy I work where I do, my boss has got to be the most easiest going guy around. Most people that work for this company are, they treat you like family, you are more then a number to them, and I like that. I say this because I was suppose to work this weekend but I gathered some nerve and asked my boss if I could have it off instead. I haven't worked a Sat in a really long time and I am probably due too work one. My boss has been super good at letting me go early on Fridays so I can work my "part time" job and very flexible with me working Saturday's. Now I don't need this Sat off since there are no race's this weekend but I was really hoping to go to the Farmer's Market in my home town. They have thee best farmer's market ever!! I bet there are over 150 booths set up, you can get anything from carrots too flowers and even homemade crafts! So I asked if I could have it off and he said yes!! YAH ! So this Sat I will be taking my mom's to the farmers market and then we will stop at a car show that my hubby is helping at. It should be an awesome weekend, especially now that I don't have to work!! ;)




I was mad yesterday .... I couldn't get on Facebook!! :o It's a good thing we were short staffed so I stayed fairly busy answering phones all day! Have no fear .... I already checked and it is back up running today! he he I'm so addicted, plus I was worried that all my info and stuff was floating around in web space for anyone to find!? LOL



I think I have decided that I am done trying to loose weight, I'm happy with where I'm at and I'm tired of always thinking about it. I have increased my food intake, not by much - I've added a fruit and dairy serving for the day, and I have a way bigger salad for supper then I used to. I know these are things that I shouldn't even consider as "add on's" because there is no way you are going to gain weight from eating a bigger salad and more fruit, but I still want to eat healthy. I guess we will see tomorrow just how the week went but I think I will change my goal weight too 170 and try too maintain that weight for now.

Last night we went out for dinner with the hubbies family from Germany, they sure are really nice people. Their English is actually really good and made it easy for us to communicate with them. Of course I was full of questions, which apparently I had already asked at the wedding but I couldn't remember cause I had too much wine! ;) I would love to go to Germany and see how they live, I always kinda pictured it like England where the houses were right beside the sidewalk and no one had front yards but by the way it sounds their property is more like ours with yards and gardens!? After dinner we went back to my in laws for a visit and we went in the hot tub for a little while. They are leaving today but we made sure to get their e-mail address so we can send pics and letters, thank goodness for the Internet! :)




I will be totally surprised if I do well with tomorrows weigh in, with the wedding, having a few drinks and going to for dinners I don't expect to do very well but I feel like I am more in a maintaining my weight then loosing weight stride. I think I need to find the happy medium too maintain but not loose/ gain weight!? I think it will be a little tough to find that happy point, today I brought some extra food for lunch so we will see how tomorrows weigh in goes!?

a little more rested ...

So after going to bed at about 8:30 last night I do feel quite a bit better today, not 100%, but better. It will definitely be another early night tonight. I can't wait to get back into my routine, I don't think I have taken the dog for a walk in a week!




Looks like we will probably be going to court soon! I don't know much about lawyer/ house buying hoopla but I will try to give you a little history first .....
So in Sept of 2005 we bought our first house and the previous owner did not get an RPR (Real Property Report) before listing it, our lawyer said he didn't need one but we wanted one (just in case). This report lets you know if any of your property is over property lines or not where it should be. Well our lawyer was able to get us the house without this report but then about 2 weeks after being in the house Epcor came by to do a survey of the property only to tell us that the shed that is attached to the back of our garage is on their Utility Right of Way (or something like that) and needs to be moved. This wouldn't be an issue IF the shed wasn't attached to the garage. Epcor also told us that the garage eaves is hanging over the right of way as well and we may need to move the garage. Well our garage is quite large, I don't think we would be able to move it without causing damage to it! ?
So anyway -- long story short, it is now 2007 (almost 2 years later) and our "shed" issue is still not settled. Yesterday we got a letter in the mail that pretty much says they were not able to get any type of encroachment for the shed OR the garage eaves and that the other lawyer was willing to give us the $1000 that he withheld from the sale of the house two years ago. Well $1000 won't even buy us a new shed never mind re-side the garage (where the shed was) or pay for dump fees. Never mind the issue on the garage now!
I hated house shopping and don't think I ever want to go through this again, but IF we ever do, I don't want to have to deal with this shed and garage issue then. So we need to deal with it now so we aren't the ones that pay for it later. I feel that the previous home owner is responsible for anything that did not comply because she never got the RPR in the first place and signed the papers saying that everything was where it should be. So now we are on the hunt for a good lawyer cause the one we were using for the sale of the house (recommended by our real estate agent - friend of the family) SUCKS! I refuse to use him any longer then we have too and don't feel that he would do a very good job at getting us what we want anyway! ?
Worst case scenario would be that we have to tare the garage down and rebuild a new one. I know it's kinda weird but one of the main reasons we bought the house was for the garage (I know for a fact that was the ONLY reason why my hubby wanted the house) so IF we have to rebuild I don't believe that we will be able to rebuild the same garage we have now (it would have to be smaller) and that would be no good! Not only would we loose equity on the house but my hubby would be very upset about that! The shed is kinda a minor thing compared to the garage issue except for the fact that it would cost us money out of our own pocket to re-side the garage ($1800). The thing that pisses me off the most is that the previous home owner is denying the fact that the shed IS attached to the garage and she is recommending that we use the door from the shed to fill in the hole that goes into the shed from the garage (but there is n door - cause the shed is attached to the garage, you have to go through the garage to get to the shed). If the shed was in fact NOT attached to the garage why would there be a door going into it from the garage!? We can easily prove that it is attached and we have already sent pics to our idiot lawyer that show how it is attached so it's not a big deal it's the principle of it that pisses me off, how can she deny it and act like we added this after the sale of the house!? Grrrr -- I hate house shopping !! I hope this doesn't drag on for another two years, I would really like to side the garage this year so it matches the house! ?

Nutrisystem changed their website, I'm not sure if like it?! All my information has changed?! It's like they put all my old info on it from March and changed my goal to 170? Supposedly they are getting around to fixing every one's profile but who knows when!? They also don't have their "50 clicks - $10 coupon" working and I was so close to getting one! Hopefully they will bring it back, even though this is my last order. I asked one of their customer service ladies that since this is my last order and I'm not quite at my goal yet if I would have to order another whole order just to get my goal bear!? She told me that if I am close enough to goal that I should just fib on my numbers or get a hold of her and she will make sure I get my bears! he he I do like how you can "add friends" to your profile, and I like the new look but you would think they would have waited till the program was finalized before bringing it out?

It's my hubbies birthday tomorrow (31) and I haven't planned anything for him!!! :( I suppose I should at least get him a cake!? I haven't even gotten him a gift but I think we are getting too old for that?! I told him he could get his tube bender so that will be his gift I guess? Maybe we will go for dinner this weekend to his favorite restaurant ... Red Lobster!? ;)

I don't expect any loss for tomorrow, I blame it on all the drinking I did on the weekend?! And I' not talking about drinking water!? he he They were high sugar and probably high calorie but they tasted good and I enjoyed them!! ;) I will be happy if I end up weighing in at the same as I did last week! I've been pounding back the water yesterday and today so we will see if maybe that helps but the salesman here is suppose to be buying us lunch today, donairs!!! YUM!! I haven't had one of those forever and I keep thinking that I will only eat half but I'm afraid it might taste too good to stop!! ;) Oh well!

Check up .....

My car is in the shop today, nothing major just a oil change and it's yearly 'check up'! We have only had the car for a year so there shouldn't be any problems and if there is it will be under warranty. Even if it wasn't under warranty it wouldn't be a huge deal, because I work in a auto parts store I get all my parts at cost which helps a lot. Usually my hubby also does the oil changes but since it has to go in for the inspection they may as well do the oil change too!



Yesterday was a busy day too, work was crazy busy (seems to be a trend lately -on Mondays). I was exhausted by the end of the day and starving! So after a dinner with a few extra veggies to fill me up I took the dog for her walk. It was beautiful out last night and only needed a light sweater on the walk. After that I had to take those TV tray's back to get them exchanged for a full set, what a pain in the butt! But I got them exchanged and had to drop off the receipt at the aunts house which is fairly close by. Then back home to finally sit and relax for a bit. The hubby was busy working on the Ford that he crashed a few months ago and went over to his Grandma's to pick up our home made holiday trailer! We haven't used it in almost two years!! He made it, frame and all, so it's not pretty on the eye's but it keeps us dry and it's way better then using a tent! We want to bring it out to the race track this weekend and just leave it out there so sometime this week I have to get in it and do a serious cleaning! I'm kinda scared, there might be things in there that should have been cleaned out two years ago!!



I'm kinda excited for my weigh in tomorrow, I think I've lost at least a pound or two! ;) I think I still need to work on my dinner's, I often find that I have no idea what to make!? I need to find more things to make so that there is a little more variety then just wheat pasta and chicken with veggies! I've never really been one to experiment or cook up these extravagant meals - the simpler the better! I am in the process of making my cook book and I'm hoping that I will be able to have a link on this blog so that all of you can also check it out! Some of the recipes I have yet to make but look really good and simple (8 ingredients or less, type recipes). And they are recipes that have ingredients that I think everyone should have in their cupboards! If it calls for something that I have to look up on the internet to find out what it is, it's not in my cook book! ;)

It's snowing AGAIN!! gesh .... I suppose I can't complain too much unless it is still snowing after May long weekend!? We have had lots of snow this year compared to previous years, I hope that doesn't mean that our summer will be more wet then previous years as well!? At least not on weekends! ;)






I'm slightly grouchy and slightly irritated today, in our house I'm the one in charge of paying the bills and making sure everything ticks along with no bumps! Well this morning my hubby called to ask if I had paid his M/C that he uses for his work and with me switching the banks around and making sure that all our direct with drawl payments were changed over I somehow forgot to pay it!? It doesn't help that we seem to miss bills, we only seem to get a bill every couple months, so if I'm not on top of things and just pay the stupid thing on- line I tend to forget that we even have the card? So now the hubby is mad cause he can't buy the supplies he needs on the card and I'm sure he figures it's my fault! I just wish we got the bill every month so that it was easier to keep track of! ((sigh)) Whatever, it's too late now - so much for getting our credit score to go back up!







I also forgot that we have a meeting tonight with the race track, we need to fill out our applications and have our orientation. We go through it every year and every year it seems like we never have enough employees to work the various stations in order to make the races run good!? But every year people show up to help for the pathetic pay that we get, I suppose it's more for the entertainment then the job!? I haven't seen any of these people since the banquet in October, so I'm 20lbs lighter since then and hope to impress a few people with my new look! I'm also hoping for a raise this year, last year I only got $30 per event. It didn't matter if I was there for 4 hours or 16 hours, I only got $30! ! It's not a bad pay if you are only there for 4 hours (minimum wage) but if your there for any longer then 4 hours it's like slavery!! There were no perks last year, we didn't even get a discount at the concession, this year is apparently going to be different? I was thinking of working the Sat., Sun races too just to get extra pay but I think they found someone for that position, so I will just be there for Friday night Street Legals!




I have a somewhat good feeling about my weigh in tomorrow, even though I haven't been 100% with my walking or the eating. My clothes feel a little looser and I just feel lighter?! I'm hoping that it's not just my mind playing games on me, I'm really hoping that my mini-challenge ticker starts moving!




There was a new season of Little People Big World that started last night, we watched it - I like the show it is fun to watch and last nights show was very exciting!! Did anyone else watch this show? Last night for dinner I made taco's (not NS - on my own), I found YVES ground veggie burger last time I was grocery shopping and picked up one that was "Mexican" mix. It is pre-cooked (which I didn't realize until I looked at the cooking instructions). And I must say it was petty darn good! It has only 90 Cals per 1/3 of a cup, only 2.5g of fat and it had like 11g of Protein. Even the hubby liked it, you couldn't even tell it was veggie 'meat' ? LOL Unlike the YVES Veggie burger and veggie dogs I tried and was a little unhappy with, this ground round was really good! I wouldn't recommend the patties or the veggie dogs though, they seemed quite rubbery and bland? I think this is similar to 'Boca meat' that a lot of people on NS talk about but I have not been able to find? Maybe it's Canada's version of Boca? Yves has a pretty good website if you are interested just click on the red YVES link above! :)

New Fridge!! :)

Last night after work we went to Trail Appliances to check out their "big sale"! They had tons of appliances that were on sale but even with their sale the cheapest fridge they had was over $1250 and it wasn't even close to what we were looking for. So off to Future Shop we went. We decided to just go ahead with the Samsung bottom freezer we had originally liked. Unfortunately the Samsung fridge we wanted was discontinued and they only had the floor model left to sell and we might have bought it, if it wasn't damaged!! The plastic crisper drawers were broken and there were dents on the front of it - they would have sold it to us for a really good price but we didn't think it was worth it. They had the "new" model there which almost looked the same but had black trim instead of grey and no side handle on the door but it was $700 more!! YIKES!! NO thanks!!



I picked out a different fridge I liked, it was an LG bottom freezer. The bottom freezer part is a sliding drawer instead of a swinging door and has a slide out shelf in the freezer as well. This fridge is a energy star (so it takes less energy to run) and the shelves on the fridge door are adjustable (where they weren't on the Samsung). It also comes with a two year warranty instead of a one year. It was then next lowest price fridge they had ($1399) but it was also discontinued and the only one left was the floor model. So we thought we would go to The Brick because they also sell LG and they price match. So after dealing with the salesperson and finding out that they can get the same fridge we told him the price that Future Shop was selling it for so he made some calls. It turns out that they don't price match if the product is discontinued!! And they wanted $400 more for the same fridge but theirs would come in a box! I didn't think it was worth it to pay and extra $400 for a box and the floor model LG that Future Shop had was in pretty good shape (just needed to be cleaned) plus because it was a floor model the salesman at Future Shop said he would give us an additional 10% off!! So back to Future Shop we went!



By now I'm starved cause we didn't even have supper before we went shopping and I'm getting grouchy from going to all these stores. We bought the LG from Future Shop with the extended warranty (that the salesman also gave us a deal on) - my hubby dropped me off at home, picked up his truck and headed back to get our new fridge!! I stayed home and moved the old fridge out of it's spot, cleaned all the bunnies from behind the fridge and grabbed a bite to eat! By the time we got the new fridge in it's place it was already 8:00pm!! I fed my hubby and started cleaning! :) By 9:30 I was transferring all my food over -- I love my new fridge!! It sticks out a little further then out old one (it's deeper) so it kinda looks funny cause the counter is farther back then the fridge but it still looks good! I am quite surprised at the size of the freezer though, it looked so much bigger then our old one but I find that it takes way more organizational skills to stack everything in the new freezer. It seems a lot smaller - I guess it's time for us to get a deep freeze and a stove to match the rest of our stainless steel appliances!! ;)

I took Jordanna's advice yesterday and stopped at Costco on my way home from work. I picked up the book she recommended on her blog, turkey pepperoni she also recommended and I saw a 3 pack yoga video that I decided to get as well (I'm starting to get a little bored of my Pilate's one). I wanted to start reading the book as soon as I got home from taking the dog for a quick walk but as soon as I got home from Costco my hubby informed me that he received 2 cheques from the good ole government, they had made a mistake and we over paid them - so they were returning the money to us! YEAH - gotta like when that happens! ;) So he said "let's go shopping" - gotta like that too! So off we went looking for a new fridge, I really want a bottom freezer fridge and have seen some good deals before at Future Shop, so we made this our first stop. We bought our dishwasher from them and so far it is good, I like it. We found a 18.8cu stainless steel bottom freezer fridge that was a very good price but it was made by Samsung and I kinda wanted all our appliances to match (the dishwasher is GE). I also have never bought any Samsung before and am not sure about their quality? I always thought they made stereos and electronics? I wanted to see what one of their stoves looked like cause I figured it was ok if the dishwasher was different but it would be nice if the stove and fridge matched. Unfortunately Future Shop didn't have any Samsung stoves so now I'm wondering if they even make a stove? I now need to decide how important it is to me that my appliances match?! I think I'm more of a value conscious person then a appearance person so I'm almost certain that we will get this Samsung fridge and worry about the stove later - if it matches then that's a plus but I don't think I'm too worried about it (as long as it's stainless steel). Here is a pic:
Some things I like about this fridge that we didn't find on any other fridge is.....
-- the freezer door swings open as opposed to sliding out and has individual draws instead of those little wire bins.
-- there is a child lock for the freezer door (so toddlers don't figure out how to open the freezer)
--of course the price was good ($899)
--and it has lots of shelf and storage space.
Of course we forgot to measure the space where the fridge goes in the kitchen so we didn't buy it yet, in case it doesn't fit. We also stopped at Leons too see what they have, I was surprised to see they don't really have too much in the bottom freezer department but I did notice they had a little upright freezer that we also want for the basement - so I hinted to the hubby that this would be a good 30th b-day present! ;) They also had some good deals on stoves so when it does come time to get a stove I think we will end up at Leons for that.
When we got home I started reading the book and found that it was quite humorous but also thought it was a little odd of me to be reading a "what to expect when you are expecting" type book when I'm not even expecting yet! ? My hubby saw it and asked -"why are you reading a pregnancy book???" thinking that maybe I haven't told him something!? he he But then I explained how Jordanna said it was a good book and that it was funny! So he kinda raised his eye brow, shook his head and walked away! LOL
I have to take the pet's to the vet's today so I get to leave work early !! YEAH!! I think it is good timing for the vet appointment cause of the big food recall I can talk to him about that a bit and he can check them out really good. Kitty needs her nails trimmed really bad but absolutely goes bonkers when you try to clip them, it's like you are taking away her only defence mechanism. They usually ask me to leave the room when they trim her nails, probably cause they have to man handle her so bad that they don't want me to think they are hurting my cat. Last time I tried to help hold her down she bit me, little b*tch! I even bled a bit, so it doesn't bother me to leave the room!
Tomorrow is weigh in day and I'm hoping that I lost the weight I gained last week plus a little extra !! But I'm not holding my breath, I'll take anything as long as it's less then what I am now! ;)

Tuesday .....



Well I think I've had just about enough of winter - spring is just taking way too long to get here! Last night we went over to the in laws to cover a few things before they leave on their trip to Mexico! I'm so jealous ..... I wish I could go with them! MIL cleaned out her fridge and gave me all the things that would go bad while they are gone (eggs, kiwi's, etc.) They also bought a new digital camera, much smaller then their old one, to take with them on the trip. So guess who gets the old digital ! YAH!! :) Gotta like freebies!

Last night I had the best supper I have had in a long time! There was a left over pork chop in the fridge so I sauteed some onions, mushrooms and green peppers. Added the meat to warm it up, put it in a wrap with a little salsa and hot banana peppers!! YUM ! It was so good, I also cut up some tomatoes and cucumbers (instead of having a salad).

I hate the end of the month - every month end we have to fold flyer's that the company sends the customers in their statement. Blah - It is definitely not my favorite part of the job ! And guess who is taking a few days off this week again!! AND it is my early shift again to boot! So that means I get stuck once again working the late shift, grrrr I hate when he always takes days off when it is my early shift!! Even though it is only 30min early it makes a huge difference in the day!

I would also like to welcome Victoria (Carb Addict) to Nutrisystem!! She has placed her first order and is waiting for the delivery! I hope she has just as much success with NS as I have! :)

Tuesday tidbits!


I had a pretty productive day yesterday, I ended up having to work till 5:00 even though it is my early week. :( I was thinking of going shopping after work but I was hungry so I went home first and had supper. After supper I decided to go shopping, even though it had started to snow, again! I went to the Running Room looking for a new pedometer and thought they would have a large selection of fairly good ones. I was wrong, all they had were a few cheap ones, I was specifically looking for the Omron HJ-112 one that it seems like everyone uses. I finally found one at Wal-Mart, it was the last one there. I think it is the same one that Lady Atkins uses and she hasn't complained out hers, so hopefully I'll like this one better then my old one. While I was at Wal-Mart I picked up a cheap DVD player and a Pilate's video for the basement. I was going to buy the video in the pic in the upper right hand side of this post but I decided to get a different one that had 3 levels of difficulty. I'm thinking I should have got the one in the pic cause I can't even find the one I bought on the internet? I hope that doesn't mean it is a cheesy one!? I'm going to try it out tonight after my evening walk, I'll let you know how it goes! While I was out I stopped at Michael's craft store looking for some more of those "rub-on's", they sure don't make very many of them I didn't find any that I liked, I guess I'll have to get some at a Scrapbook store instead? I also stopped in at Superstore to pick up light cheese for my nachos on Valentine's day! I'm so excited - I can hardly wait !! :) I was also going to stop at Old Navy but was running a little late. Jordanna highly recommends checking them out, I never even knew that they had a plus size section or I probably would have checked them out sooner! I need to go to stores that have both plus size and regular sizes because I am unsure of what size I am, I like to have some choices and not be limited to sizes. When I got home I took the dog for her walk and found a comfy spot on the couch to relax for a bit! I'm so excited to try my Pilate's video tonight and for my weigh in tomorrow!! I hope I loose enough to get my 60lb bear!

Trivia


Did you hear there is a new food guide ! I think it is funny how the government realizes that America has a over weight problem and that it has taken them this long to re-map the food guide? Although I absolutely do not blame the old food guide for America's obese issues. I don't think that by introducing a new food guide you (the government) will cure this weight issue and all the obese people will become thin? When I was growing up I don't think I ever listened to Hal and Joanne with their tips on nutrition! Although they did have a catchy song on their commercials and as I type this I find myself humming along to it! ;) Now maybe if the government would put a limit on how many fast food joints can go up in one block radius,that might reduce childhood obesity?!

Lately I feel so good, I think that February is going to be our month! I just feel like everything is falling into place, marriage is good, money is getting better, job is ok, weight loss is making me feel great and it feels like we aren't even really trying that hard for all these things to work! I'm hoping that this month will bring good news! A new beginning perhaps or a fresh start at everything! I know I probably sound like I fell off my rocker but I just feel elated, I do see a light at the end of the tunnel and I find myself looking forward to silly things - like weigh in days and discovering a new healthy replacement for my meals!?

On a side note, my brother asked me if I wanted to go with his family to WEM Waterpark next weekend, it is with his company so it will only cost $5 for 3 hours of fun and excitement !! There are tons of water slides that you have to climb millions of stairs to get too but I think it will be well worth it, I get huge exercise and get to have fun - for five bucks! How can you go wrong? Today is grocery shopping day and I will be going by myself, usually both me and the hubby go but he has to work tonight so it will just be me! I'm kinda excited about this cause I will have tons of time to stop and read labels, compare products and maybe even discover some new healthy finds! When the hubby is there it is more of a - where's the list, get what you need, pay and get out kind of attitude! So rushed and he hates when I need salad dressing because I always stand there forever trying to find a good one. It's like picking out a birthday card.... takes me forever! I pick one up, read it, find another, read it, etc ... till I find one that is just right! He doesn't understand why I don't just buy the same one all the time - find one you like and buy it all the time, is his thoughts! He just doesn't get it! LOL ;)

I feel like such a dummy today, I pulled a Kellie this morning and forgot to put my silly pedometer on! It makes me so mad that I forgot to put the stupid thing on! grrr I think I'm so mad about it cause I know I will be doing a ton of walking today! On my lunch break I need to go drop some paperwork off at the bank and I was going to drop my car off at Bubbles and walk back to work! Then after work I need to do some shopping for Kenzie's baby shower!! Every time I take steps at work I feel like kicking myself in the butt! So needless to say my step count will be super low for today even though I plan on walking a lot of miles! I didn't even record my steps from yesterday in my journal so I can't even post how many steps I had yesterday (I know it was in the 8000!).

For my 10 day 100% challenge with Jordanna I did really good yesterday and stayed on plan 100% but this morning I had no NS breakfast's left so I opted for the hubbies Sugar Crisp cereal, which isn't too bad - 140 cals, 1.5g Fat, but it has 17g of sugar!! I think it is comparable to the new NS toaster strudels? I am also on my last NS lunch - Tuna Salad :( yuk!! Hopefully I get my shipment today and tomorrow I will start again on being 100%. I'm so excited for this shipment, there should tons of new and improved items! And I should be getting my 50lb bear!! :)
