Topic: Friday Five

Ladies & Gents, I will be going out of town for 5 days tomorrow and I don't know anyone there that has Internet access. There are no Internet Cafes or anywhere I can actually get online. Miracle, eh? Its really the middle of nowhere and I have no way to describe it. Regardless, my point is that I need a volunteer for the Friday Five this week. I'm sad to say I won't be here to post it. However, I will be relaxing and running away from my life for a few days and that will be nice! Thanks in advance for whomever helps! Amber

Topic: RE: Friday Five - Weekly Update!

1. What types of food did you eat this week? tuna, turkey, steak, pork, chicken, cottage cheese, string cheese, yogurt, green beans, corn, celery, and SF popsicles. 2. What types of exercise did you do this week? Only 1 day at the time gym because of the chest pains I had on Tuesday, Doc said no exercise. I did some shopping and a lot of cooking, that's still burning calories. 3. How much weight did you lose? Total loss? 2 pounds gone, woohoo! The diet is working. 97 total. 4. What was your biggest challenge? My anxiety is through the roof! 5. Can you really "see" your weight loss when you look in the mirror? I seen it up until about 6 months/Christmas time. Now I look the same. I hope I'm not getting that dysmorphic crap. *Fun bonus question: What are your Easter Plans? If you practice Catholism, what did you give up for Lent? Do you have a good Easter memory to share? I went to a barbeque and a dessert party. We had a great time. Lots of good food, friends, and conversation.

Thanks Patty! I'm with you, still no appetite, and it's weird, this past Saturday I was baking for Easter and working so hard cleaning house that I forgot to eat, I thought I was going to pass out, and realized I hadn't eaten anything at all. The Dutch chocolates are very good too, but they along with all the yummy pastries will not be on my menu this time, I'm sticking to the cheese, and plan on bringing lots of it home! Of course everyone wants me to bring chocolate home for them. The cousins we stay with in Holland own an Ice Cream Shoppe, and make fre****alian Ice daily. I've always been in heaven trying all the different flavors, but that's another thing not on my menu this time. It'll be different not sampling all the goodies but I know I'm going to enjoy this trip more than ever before. Jan

Thanks Maryellen - Pictures? Got to work on that, I know I'll have some after vacation for sure. We're flying to London, then going on to Ireland for a 9 day tour, then off to visit and stay with hubbies family in Holland, with trips planned to Germany, and possibly Belgium. We haven't been to Holland since 2002, and have never been to London, Ireland or Belgium. So I'm very much looking forward to going. Jan
