Pearl - the thought of losing my wallet is awful! Sounds like you've done everything you can. Not sure if you want (or even can) put a fraud alert on his account with the credit bureau companies. Hopefully the wallet will turn up.....have you checked everyone's socks???? (okay, that's just where Kristen's family likes to hide things). He's probably pretty bummed about losing the park cards!
I'm stuffed after lunch. I suppose I can expect that initial gain that the others posted about after switching to this new plan. The COD counselor stated that she was losing 4 pounds a week on this new plan. I thought well it sure don't look like it. I know, I'm bad, but you know you should be able to tell if someone has lost 12 pounds in the last 3 weeks. Right?
Amy – were you having problems losing on gold? Is that why you COD moved you to green? The reason I ask is my COD told me I would never move to green. Prior to having my baby, I was at 143 lbs and I was struggling getting to my goal weight of 135 lbs so I asked if I could move to green to help with the last few pounds and they said no. Maybe if you were not having problems on gold your center could move you back?? Just a thought.
Nicole - sounds like you had a terrific day yesterday!!
Pearl - sorry to hear about the wallet thing - I went through that years ago but now I keep a strict eye on it. Too much work these days if you lose it.
Today I just have a day at home. Started my new meds today so I didn't want to go far in case I reacted or anything but so far so good. Holiday up here today and I also have tomorrow off. I got some laundry done, something in the slow cooker chugging away since this morning, in the process of making a dill potato salad - just waiting for the potatoes to cool down a bit.
I go back to COD tomorrow after 2 months away. I am looking forward to it actually. I called them friday so they know I am coming. The girl I talked to on the phone is one of the ones I like so I didn't make an appt but she did record that I was coming in. Then to the store to stock up.
I stay away from the dollar stores unless I really need stuff cause I just come out of there with too much!!
I am going to be talking to the bank this week about being able to get my own place instead of renting and then hopefully I can start the housing hunt. I am likely just going to get a minihome but I might look at a few condos or townhouses too.
Dawn: When they moved me to the new FF menu, they dropped me down to what would have been a green plan. They took away a veg and fruit. No explanation, just did. I was within 20 pounds from goal weight. But today they moved me back up to what would be the gold plan's equivalent on the new menu. I am happy about it, but don't want to gain in the transition. I was upset that I hadn't lost since last week, cause my scale showed a reduction this a.m.
I should do fine with all this food, if I can still continue to lose while eating all of it. )
Amy - I'm glad they moved you up a plan.. don't be so sure you'll see much of a gain.. When I was on the old Blue plan and my WL basically stopped, they moved me back up to Red and I started losing immediately.. Of course, guys are different from girls, but you never know.. Just make sure you strictly stick to your portions...
