Lori I laughed hard when I read your post. THat sounds fun. But don't be silly... I saw your pictures... you are one of those beautiful people at Ballys! I might try that with breakfast. Agh - i wish my cravings would go away!

Kirsty - I know... I was one of those people. Stopping before goal. Not thins time!

Jayne - I think that's a great idea.. I might make my own mexican stuff for dinner tonight if I can get through the day without giving in to my cravings... although I'm worried I won't make it through the day. AGH!

Jen - it's so great having you back. I hate that you're having problems getting pg. I worry about that - although I'm sure that's a long ways away.

Tonya - way to go at the pizza place.

KO - MMmmmm that cake sounds good. Good to hear you didn't do so bad. I hope Miranda takes Steve back too - he's such a cutie!


And about that Sex in the City... I laughed... it was like re-living the 4th all over again.

Default Hello!

Holy Moly, what a busy board today! I'm glad it has been, it's so much fun when it is. I've been working dilligently today and am just stopping for a few minutes to respond to everyone before I crack the whip on myself again. I had to re-commit myself to work because I haven't hardly done anything and boss will be back in the office in about a week and if she asks what I did while she was gone, I don't think I can say "3 Fat Chicks WW 20's Message Board"...

Quick Question--Does anyone know how many points a bag of Orville Redenbacher's Smart Pop popcorn is? From what I can tell, it looks like it's only 2 points for the whole bag, is that right?

WI is tonight, I hope it goes well. I've been OP for the most part, with the exception of Sunday's Binge-Drinking BBQ. I went to the gym 4 times last week, 2 times so far this week and did Pilates on Monday (which totaly kicked my ***). Eating has been good, so I can't see any reason that I would be up, other than my impending TOM. A girl from work is going to be meeting me there, so I know at least one person will talk to me.

KT--You asked yesterday who writes the Outlander series. The answer is Diana Gabaldon.

Jayne--Hope your ankle is feeling better soon! Ankle pain sucks. My BF is about 6'5", weighs about 260 and one night, we were being silly while we were on a walk and he somehow managed to step on my ankle. It hasn't been the same since, but at least it doesn't hurt. If you want to post a picture of Aaron, maybe you could email it to me and I could see if I can post it for you--I don't have a hubby messing with my computer here at work. PM me and I'll give you my email, if you want to do that.

PJ--Hope everything gets better at work for you! I get frustrated with mine at least everyday, but still somehow enjoy my job...

Cat--There is no excuse for you not to strength train tonight. So get that skinny behind in there and get it out of the way. Then go home and reward yourself however you see fit.

Jen--Hey, darlin'! Glad to see you posting. I tried the recipe you posted for chocolate cookies over the weekend and determined that I am a terrible baker. I'm going to have to try them again--I was low on flour and baking powder, so that might have been why it didn't work out so well for me. Yes, definitely post lots of recipes--I collect them. (I have to call it collecting them because I usually don't actually make them).

Lisa--I don't think that having a big breakfast is a cop out. Sometimes you just have to give into your craving. Chances are that once you give in, you won't want it again for a very long time. Just don't go totally overboard, but I don't think I even needed to tell you that.

Kier--Hope you're feeling 100% better. And darn it, I missed Sex and the City, even after I promised myself that I'd remember to watch it on Sunday. When I missed that, I promised myself I'd watch it last night and forgot that, too. I can't wait to see Goldmember!! I think it comes out on Friday, doesn't it?

Kirsty--Oh yes, most definitely catch up on that lost time with BF. How long has he been gone? (I know you told us but I can't remember). And have a wonderful time, that's the most important thing to do!

Tonya--Way to go avoiding the pizza, that's never easy! And 15 points in drinks isn't so bad, considering how high in points drinks are! And, just be glad that you don't go out and do that every Friday and Saturday.

Lori--Oh, I wish you and I worked out together--we'd both fall off our balls together and just be clutzes together! Your WalMart story is hilarious! I was practically rolling on the floor!

OK, I know people have probably posted while I've been typing up this monster, so hello to all!

i'm cranky, just ignore me.
not really...that would make me sad.

um, so i think i need to reduce my carb intake. seriously. i'm going to still do the points also, but try to cut back on pasta and bread and that type of thing. i get out of control with that stuff
ok, i know i'm not responding to the posts..but hello to everyone! I'll def. be back and read all of the posts later....cant seem to stay away! (this is my fav. forum group on the site!!!!!!)

Wow - busy board again.

I'm so glad my co-workers are back. Oh, and ME! I got a six week extension in which time they are supposed to post the position and I will apply for it and as long as no one with the exact same qualifications and more senority applys, the job is all mine - we'll see.

I got my car back last night to (1800 dollars later - )

well, at least I have transportation now.

PJ - I love this board too - and I'm a carb addict - I deal with it by not having them in the house.

Jess - thanks for the author, I'll head to the library tonight. Have fun at WI.

Lisa- bacon is not high points - 2pts for 3 strips I think - so I say, go for it (although I would do the poached egg thing) and get it out of your system.

Kier - sounds like a great cake - I need one for my girlfriend's shower this weekend and 1/2 the people there are on WW - I guess I could do angel food and low fat cool whip. Hope you're feeling better.

Lori - that's funny. Mums always warn their kids that can happen - you never think it would. I'm glad you can laugh about it now.

Hi Jen (welcome back) - can't wait to see the picts of Emma, she must be getting big.

Jayne - Hope your ankle feels better soon.

Tonya - BF? What about DH?

Kirsty - Have fun in amsterdam

OK - this just took me forever to get through so Hi to everyone else and anyone I missed - Hope you are all having a lovely day
KT

I meant "Best Friend", not "Boyfriend". I don't know how DH would feel about that one!

Goodness girls! TOns o' posts!

Jess - good luck at WI. I bet it will be good news. Let us know. And I think the whole bag is either 2 poitns or 4. I can't remember... either way, what a good deal.

KT - good luck with the job and sorry about the car.

And ladies... I apologize for being so self-centered lately... I'm just so new to this. So I told Brian that I'd rather do lunch closer to work so I could get off at a good time (he wanted to make me lunch at his house... but I was worried about that so I suggested that we not do that)... so guess what he's planned now. A pic-nic at this park near work. Ladies... he really is perfect... I don't know what my problem is. He might win me over yet. He's bringing wine, cheese, strawberries and sandwhiches from a deli near work. I asked what I could bring and he said "yourself."

It's not you, Jess

PJ, it's good that you have the insite and self-control to do what you need to do if you're a carb-addict. I'm not sure I'd be strong enough.

Kier, I used to BE Charlotte. You know, a little naive, always wanting to see the good side of people and refusing to see the bad...then I saw Miranda's boobs and had my big epiphany! She's going to have to marry Steve...just to deal with the "help" if nothing else

Lori, your story is why I don't have the guts to go to the aerobics classes at my gym...tht would so be me! As for Wal-Mart, I'm willing to bet that just about everyone has an embarassing Wal-Mart story in their repetoire.

Jen, that's wonderful that you are maintaining...keep up the good work there. I don't know if you know my story or not, but if you don't, read the thread about what motivates you to lose weight. I too had a LOT of trouble getting pregnant (Aaron is really a miracle baby) and I know how anxious and frustrating it all is. The best you can do is try to stay positive (my OB told me that negative thinking can have a hormonal effect that adversely affects fertility) and enjoy the heck out of Emma in the meantime. Good luck!

Tonya, your night sounds like fun...I'd take the drinks over pizza any night. The only trouble is, if I had all the drinks, I'd find myself eating the pizza without really being aware...

Lisa, you WILL make it through the day! I'm sending you the dancing banana to inspire your cravings towards fruits and veggies!

Jess, smart pop is indeed 2 points per bag if memory serves me correctly. I'm glad you're going to have a WW buddy...makes life easier. I just got a Pilates video from my sister, and I'm inspired by you to try it as soon as I think my ankle can hold me up alone. I wonder if it's the same video you have? It's called Precision Toning. LMK...

Ok, I'm going to try to (with Jess's help, thank you) get that picture of Aaron's spaghetti face posted! Later!

So many posts while I was posting!

KT, I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you about the job. Sorry to hear about your car repair costs, but it was cheaper than a new car, I guess.

Tonya, I thought maybe you and hubby were having a "date night" so you were calling him boyfriend. I'm sure he's glad to hear that you don't have a side order. Hehe, same initials, big difference, I guess...

PJ, DH stands for dear husband and a lurker is someone who just comes in and reads but doesn't post.

Lisa, that picnic sounds wonderful. He's trying hard...I think he's in LU-HUV (read that last part in a sing-songy voice)!

Tonya - that's funny - I too thought you were just having date night but it's nice to have a best to hang with every now and then.

Lisa - Wow - he actually sound intuitive. Picnic is a great idea!
