I am hoping for an ok day today. Two of my kids are feeling better, so thats half the trouble!  The stress was incredible yesterday, with them all being sick, and I did it! I made my calories. Good for me. Ok, my son wants to use the computer to look at "dinosaur transformers". He won't leave me alone until he gets his way. Maybe he should run for president. He always seems to get his way.

I loved my kids when they were little...but they are soooo much easier now that they are in their teens.  Congrats on getting through a tough day!

They get even easier when they are gone and on their own! Laughing

Not always, because they can drive you crazy over the phone, but it sure is nice being empty nesters and getting reaquainted with why we got married in the first place!

Its something to look forward to!

Thanks!  I'm glad you like my sugar free jello idea.  Its really helping me.  My kido and hubby have been sick as well, so I get the cranky, strong-willed, sick toddler and the "I don't want to go to work" hubby to deal with.  Ugh.  Why is it only a woman can do what needs to be done no matter how we feel about it?  I have another idea you might like for stress eating, although I'm not much of a fan.  Get a bag of frozen stawberries.  You can only really suck on them for awhile and if you do manage to eat a bunch of them, they are fairly low calorie (and healthy) anyway.  And of course, YAY on making your calories!
