RE: {Kids are almost all grown and hubs and I are planning on moving and shaking for a long while, I plan to do a lot of beach visits.}
lazylion; I'm happy that U got to read my post before it deleted
The reason my BC/BS paid for the operation room/anesthesia is because our deductibles were paid-up for the year & so we were left w just a 20% co-pay on my surgery bill. Things happen to us in life & get crazy & What is Important is that we 'Can Fix ourselves' & we Do-it! U raised your kids & this is Your turn to sparkle again... Some ppl bleach their teeth or get boob implants, do what gives U pleasure. My friend called me 'tiny butt' in my bikini bottom, so I bought a bottom w ruffles to make me look bigger; it turned out that her dh was getting hot seeing me in my suit & my friend wanted me to wear a 'bigger bottom' so he would stop watching me
Please your dh & yourself & follow your Christian morals. I believe in U & I know U will achieve your Goal. Please remember to 'just eat 1 serving size portions' during meals unless U r eating 'raw veggies' then splurge on those
It does help to lift hand-weights @ home during tv commercials, etc. because muscle burns fat even when we r sitting & sleeping too
Your beach season is coming next summer, get a Vision board w swim suits on it
that U want to wear! I know those boards help & so does a pic on a mirror or fridge. U r going to b @ goal & Luv your bod again
In 2015 dh & I want to go to Hawaii, @ the island it rains least/it's dryer side; I read March has the most & June the least rain. So 6 mo. prior to making reservations we'll research the islands weather more.
PS: At parties/cook-out bbq's I don't drink beer/booze instead I take a bottle of cold 'Skinny Girl' Bethenny Frankel has a line of drinks made w agave & the cals/carbs r veryyy low & U won't put on any extra pounds. They taste great & U can add your own fruit to her Margarita's, I take a bottle of hers or Moscato wine to not b a party-downer & everyone likes them too, so I have to share. My 24 yr. daughter-inlaw drinks the beer straw-rita which isn't terrible, but the fruity Moscato & SkinnyGirl drink is still better & it only takes me 2 drinks to catch a buzz & I'm done. My dh & kids laugh @ me because I can catch a buzz from regular soda-pop & its high sugar content if I haven't eaten any breakfast/lunch & then drink soda
U could Add me to your buddy list if I'm not here daily & U want to b in touch w me.
Cheryl, I agree w your list & I Luv it
Maui, U r soo close to your goal 'Congratulations'!!! R U living here on the mainland or do U live on the big island/Hawaii? The Packers thing confused me
Friends r coming soon for a cook-out & swimming w us; I gotta go prep the salads now, hubby has ribs on the grill started & I hear music now. I hope everyone has a fun & safe weekend
