You will do well. Just think about how good you will look. That should be a confidence booster for you. I'm sure you will do better than you think. Let us know how it goes.

Happy Mother's Day everyone, even the furbaby mommas! Hope everyone has a wonderful day! I plan to lay low today, it is my day off from exercise, so I will be watching my calories. DH asked if I wanted to go out and I told him I prefer to stay home, grill out and eat outside on the back porch. I think I can keep what I eat in check a little easier that way. It is very rare that we are all togther around one table, so I look forward to it! Maybe a campfire or a family bikeride if the weather holds out.
Everyone stay strong and stick to your plans!!!!

Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers out there! I really wish I could be spending some time with my mother but im stuck here at work .

Last night my cousins and I treated our mothers out to dinner and a movie. For dinner we went to Texas Steakhouse. I'm so glad that I stuck to my plan mostly lol. I forgot how delicious the bread was lol. I had a few too many but o well...it was mother's day lol. I tried the baked sweet potato for the first time and it was ok. I should have told them to put my butter on the side because it was way too much on it! Next time I will know lol.

After work today, my cousins and I are cooking dinner for our mothers. Should be a pretty good day!

Quick post...A few posts stuck out to me...

Larry - Congrats on the pound!

Berry - Congrats on 213!

Everyone else - Hi!

Sounds like y'all are doing well. Happy Mother's Day!!!

Happy Mother's Day!!

Berry: ENJOY THAT BUFFET!!! I love love love Indian food.

MzJuicy: I simply cannot go into TX Roadhouse without gorging on their bread.

Larry: Congrats on that pound!! I'm half tempted to tell my husband alllll about you! You're losing weight AND you've had heart surgery!

To everyone else: Hi!!

Today I had a small slice of hamburger "pie" for breakfast (about 1/4 c. hamburger, fresh mango and habanero blended up for sauce, and spices in a pie crust) and a ham sandwich for lunch. Hubby just headed out for my Mother's Day treat, Chinese food from my favorite place.

My workout was moving an entertainment center and TV from one room to another and setting up our new TV. LOL. I swept, mopped and cleaned house after that. Having all hardwood, vinyl and tile floors STINKS sometimes. It gets so dusty SO fast, and I despise having things stick to my feet when I'm walking in my house barefoot. I'll probably do some Just Dance later. I just HAVE to try it out on the new tv.

Hubby's grandfather bought us a TV. Good thing, because our tv was a hand me down from his grandparents, and the color had started going bad. When we were first told he had ordered one to be delivered to a store near us, we thought "COOOOOOL!" then when we found out it was a 47" flat screen, well, I'm speechless. I cannot thank him enough. It seems like overkill, lol, but I'm getting used to it. Hubby is beyond thrilled with it. He's already called friends over to check it out! LOL!! It's massive and very sleek looking, which doesn't quite fit with our current style. But hey! It's nice and it was a gift, so I'm not complaining!

Everyone have a great day!

Hi Everyone! I hope you had a great weekend.

I didn't count calories today. I did a 5 mile mall walk as my exercise. Have a great evening. See you tomorrow.
