I am so happy I copied and saved as I wrote today. When I hit submit... it took forever and I knew I was going to be kicked off line... and I WAS!!! I would have been soooo mad if I didn't save and lost this whole post. Thank God for small favors.
I think maybe Michelle and I were posting at the same time.
Michelle.. I wrote myself an email and I will get that info to you this week... I promise. I have been on here too long already today so it will have to wait till one of my 2am writings. LOL Hopefully tonight... but I promise this week.
Here is the original post that I got knocked off line with.
Grrrrr... I got knocked off line AGAIN !!!!! I am taking out the color and see if that helps.
And AGAIN... 4 times!!!! What the heck is going on here???!!! I guess I will change my picture this time. I am getting tired of this.

Grannie... of course you can join!!! Anyone who calls us "wonderful" , we will nominate as queen of the group.
You have done great so far. You have lost 27lbs in 3months or so. You said you have been in a stall for 3 weeks. Don't you just HATE stalls. I sure do. But they are as much a part of this process as losing is. Once you accept them as a time for your body to adjust , yet keep on your program, you will enjoy this journey again. Some people say they kind of "shock" their bodies by doing something different for a week. For most it is cutting out ALL sugar. But it is different for everyone. For me it is carbs.
The one thing you must do when in a stall is
be honest with yourself. Is it truly a stall... or are you making poorer choices.??? When I do that... usually my choices are to blame... not a true stall.
Anyway... we are so glad to have you join in.
Michelle... that dreaded popcorn. LOL. I just have to stay away from that stuff. For me it is the dreaded "Movie Popcorn".
We have 2 theatres here that serve the "BEST" buttered popcorn. My mouth is watering just thinking about it.
The other theartes popcorn is only so so. Even with butter. I also love the can stuff at christmas too. It is like a tradition or something I am giving up... not just the popcorn. LOL
I too am still struggling to get that water down. It is so much easier in the summer. They say it is harder in the winter because the water keeps your body cool and we want to be warm. They suggest drinking it a room temp or even heated if you can. I got probably 80 oz down yesterday. It is better than 32 but not my gallon that is my goal. Actually, 100 is my goal and a gallon the icing on the cake if you know what I mean. LOL
It is snowing here still today. I am not going swimming till Friday. I just don't want to slip and slide myself there and back home. I probably am using it as an excuse
because I have driven in worst weather than this many times. But.. it is the choice I made... right or wrong.
Today is weigh-in Wed. I think I may measure myself today since I can't weigh myself. I am suppose to do that Sat since I decided to measure once a month and Sat is the start of DEC. But I just may do it today instead. If I do.. I will come post the results.
I am going to go eat an on program meal now. Yesterday my meals were really good... even though I "wanted" to
EAT !!!!... I didn't. That is part of that being "honest" with yourself. My choices since Thanksgiving had been "legal" but not the best choices for a steady weight loss. I would rate them more of a maintain choice level. LOL.
Today...
I want to LOSE !!! And I am willing to make the choices needed to do that.
Have a great day ladies. I truly miss all of you that are not posting anymore. I hope and pray that you come back soon.
