Hey Jen!

Congrats on the new job!!!! Before becoming a SAHM, I was a fifth grade teacher and I loved teaching! I'm homeschooling my DD this fall and I'm so excited about it! I hope you enjoy your new job!

Just keep swimming Jen! The scale will cooperate with you soon!

Take care and have a wonderful week!

Sorry you weren't feeling well Jen. I have noticed that since I've stayed away from foods that the first time I have tried them since the last time I did they upset my tummy and just don't taste good to me - that happened to me the first time I had chicken fingers after not having them for a while. Good thing it doesn't happen with chocolate because once in a while I have a bite sized almond joy to get some sweet and choco in and so far so good!!!!! Hope you are feeling better!

Hang in there - the scale will move again and release all that water you probably gained!!!!!

Keep on
Chris

Congrats on the 1.5 pound loss! That is awesome!!
Your dinner sounds yummy! I always just have frozen dinners, mostly because I am following the eDiets Jenny Craig diet, but I might have to start looking at your dinners instead!
