Today we got a new desk top to repace the acient comuter that blew up last week. This computer is a refurbished HP, but it is 4x everything what my old computer was. We were able to buy an upgraded monitor with the savings we made in getting a refurbished desk top. The only thing we haven't gotten yet is Office. A friend of ours can get office at a cheaper price than what it sells for in the stores, so we are going through him to get it. I don't have spell check until then. Sorry.Monday, August 9th 2010

It's just that I tend to over eat the carbs like most people.Thursday, August 5th 2010
So far my biggest problem that I am going to have to learn to deal with is pacing my food out so I won't get hungry. Once I learn how to do this I think I will be ok. The middle of the morning, 4pm, and 10pm are my hungry zones. I know I need to plan for snacks to deal with these times. Most of the time I manage to do this, but sometimes my meal planning isn't perfect. Then there are the times when I just don't seem to get the right snacks that satisfy the hunger bug. I also have found that I am...Tuesday, August 3rd 2010
I'm glad I got in my 40 minutes of exercise today or I would have been way over on my calorie count for weight loss this week. This is the advantage to the CK dairy verses just using the FP4H tracker. I also was conservative on my calories burned during exercise even though my heart rate monitor said I used up more calories. Sometimes I'm not sure I calculate my calories right when I make a dish so I like to allow some room for error here too. Good news is I have been doing well these past few ...
