Hey girl! 
Glad you're back to logging. Organizing your meals according to your hunger and activity definitely helps.
I also saw your comment about too many cheats...I will be the first to set up and say YES, too many cheats are definitely detrimental! Until I minimized my cheats, I didn't see the progress I wanted. Now I save them for vacations and social situations that I cannot avoid - but I couldn't make the gains I wanted with a weekly cheat meal.
I'm sure you'll figure it all out

Hi, Roonytunes!
It's good to see you around these parts. 
Hopefully I will get it worked out. I'm like a broken record. Eventually (SURELY!) I will find something that I can live with consistently that works (that I'm willing to stick to).

TGIF! - CHEAT MEAL! WOOO HOOO!!!
Weight Progress:
BF Progress:
Measurements

Mood/Thoughts:
Finally! I stuck to my meal plan yesterday. It's a lot easier to do when there isn't a bag of caramel rice cakes around. Yesterday kinda sucked because the NCAA tournament was playing a block away from work. The fans took all of our parking in our garage, including reserved spots, AND it was nearly impossible to get around downtown. One of them even ran through the gate and broke it, so they didn't have to pay the parking fee! So, I couldn't tan during my lunch break. At least my boss let me go home early (while a game was still going), so that I would miss the crowd once it let out.
The husband and I are thinking about moving closer to where I work, and he is thinking about getting a job there. His school district is one of the lowest paid in the nation (well, one of the lowest paid states, and one of the lowest paid counties in the state), so he would get a job there. They're one of the highest paid in the state, so it would probably be a 10k/year increase at least. This would also mean that I can start going back to school! I need 6 more undergrad classes (4 of which have a lab, yuck!) before I can start working on my Masters. Now I wish I would have stuck with a Biology degree back in the day instead of getting a Math & Computer programming degree. Oh well. Hopefully, if I take summer classes and full semester I can be in Physical Therapy school next year. If we move there, we are also buying a house. There's no need in wasting our money on rent. We did have our hearts set on DC or NYC, but we have decided that we can't put our parents through that. His mom is really struggling mentally, and I'm the last bit of family my dad has. NYC will always be there if we want to visit.
So, I'm excited about house shopping and applying for school! Too bad I know nothing about real estate, how much we should spend on a house, etc. I'm also keeping my fingers crossed that my boss would be lenient with my work schedule. I don't want to have to quit my job and lose my health insurance.
Pretty exciting stuff! I'm still sick, but I'm feeling better today than I have all week.

Thanks, CK! I was so excited, but yesterday my husband had a phone interview with an amazing school in DC. DAMMIT! Right when we had almost made up our mind!

Stats Day! (I need to stop taking stats after a cheat meal!)
Progress (5.1.07 Goal: 123.4 - 11.0% BF)
3.17.07 - 130.4 lbs - 15.8% BF - 20.6 lbs Fat - 109.8 lbs LBM
Mood/Thoughts:
Is that goal date too soon? LOL! Well, it looks like I'm holding on to more fat than when I left off logging. Imagine that! I'm almost where I expected myself to be, though. I can't seem to shake this cough, either. No matter what, though, I am starting cardio tomorrow. I'll walk for 45 minutes if I'm not up for running. Eh, I don't have much to say today. I hope everyone is having a great weekend!
Soreness:
none. Kinda stiff.
Meal Plan - Won't be logging today. I have no idea what we're eating. I'm going to keep it healthy unless we go to the St. Patty's Day buffet and beerfest. lol

So, some big news... I mailed my application and fee to the university this morning for Summer 2007. EEP! I'm so frickin' nervous, excited, anxious, blah. Also, I've decided to lay off the logging and only keep up with my paper log for now. Anyways, I just thought I'd fill you all in instead of abruptly leaving. I'll still be checking in on everyone else's logs.

The Shadow Plan - Week 3
Progress (Goal: 11.0% BF by the end of May)
4.15.07 - 129.0 lbs - 15.4% BF
Mood/Thoughts:
I think it's time for me to start logging online again. I had great results the first week of The Shadow Plan, but last week I really didn't stay on top of the diet. I have a whole lot of stuff going on outside of work right now, and this will keep me focused.
I've decided to go back to school, but I've changed plans. I honestly don't feel like going to school for years again (I had originally applied to a DPT program). I already have enough student loans as it is! I am waiting to hear back from a community college, so that I can take a couple classes over the summer (Anatomy & Physiology I and II, and Developmental Psychology) -- I hope my boss is willing to work around my schedule. Being jobless scares the shit out of me. The husband and I are then relocating, so that I can go to school to be a PTA. I've been corresponding with the coordinator, and they're going to let me apply late. I have to get all of my observation hours AND proof that I'm enrolled to A&P I by May.
Yep! I'm a bit stressed about that. I really don't have much time, and I hope the local community college sends their papers out quick. As of right now, I haven't even got their acceptance letter.
So, that's what's been going on with me in a nutshell. On to the logging!
