Luan: Sounds like your new job is going well.

Xena: How is your vacation going? Yippe to you for loosing almost 4 pounds!!!

Brenda: So glad that you are back posting! Here is a hand up back on the wagon. That is what we do for each other here.

Kayley: Congrats on the new job and on another -3! Excellent job. Hope your dinner with your dad went well.

Luxorbea: Welcome! Wow. Going from 310 to 288 is a wonderful surprise! I did Weigh Down Workshop and The Lord's Table last year. I did well on it for a while but I was suffering some depression problems and went off them and gained back my whole 40 pounds. I am now trying to fight my way back to those 40 pounds and beyond. Looking forward to this journey with you.

Sharon: Congrats on another -3. You will be back at your ground zero again soon. Feel better.

Zelma: I recently bought a CD for the computer and taught myself how to knit a little. I am making a soft scarf too. I think I will keep my first one. I can't wait until I feel the cold like you do! Sounds silly but I hear ya on that one.

Crock: Whoop Whoop! Congrats on another 7 pounds gone!

Dusty: You are close to your fist goal! Good luck and I know you will get there soon.

Ammi: Whoop Whoop to you too Wow! another 4 pounds gone. You are so close to being in the 2's. I'm so proud of you!

Suemarie: Okay, I'm gonna give you a big Whoo HOO because I know how hard you have been struggling with school and to loose another 4 pounds on top of all that!!! Congrats.

Ladyhawke: Welcome! So glad to have you with us.

Sorry I was MIA all weekend. I was busy looking at houses. No good prospects so far but, God is good and He will provide us a home in the perfect time. I can be patient! My back is much better thank you all for your prayers and good wishes. I am going to go to Curves today. I swear I never thought I would say that I miss exercise! I love it. LOL.

Blessings all,
Dogpal/ Annie

Good for you Annie!

I missed like 9 threads awhile back so forgive me but are you looking for a new house in a different place or just because you want to move?

AmmiUK – I definitely will have pictures of the backyard up. I took some pictures of myself as well. At my 343 mark. I don’t think there will be much difference between this and my 350. But I may just post them anyways. Congrats on those 4lbs gone

Lady Hawke – WELCOME!

Wyllenn – Congrats on those 3lbs gone!

Zelma – This is a short week for me as well… It’s the last week of the school year. Many of my students asked me to go to their graduation ceremony (graduation from 8th grade). I have an exam today in class so I will not be able to go :’( I really want to. I’m at such a rock and a hard place. I am hoping my instructor will allow me to take the exam early so I can get out in time to make it for the ceremony. I definitely have a lot of work going on with the backyard. We can’t afford another house with the way prices are right now. Maybe when I get my full time teaching position, right now I’m an RSP Instructional Assistant. I figured, if we are gonna be here a while… I’m gonna make it paradise At least a paradise I can afford *grin*

ThinThinker – It’s an amazing feeling to come out debt free from college. Although my scholarship paid for only tuition, the books really hurt. I have a pretty hefty credit card bill, but it could have been worse if I had to pay my tuition as well. Working part time, has helped to keep the bill down, but its not paying much off right now. With gas prices now, it seems like I’m only working to pay my car’s gas! All in due time tho… About setting a date I think part… James wanted to talk but I wasn’t sure about what heheh that’s why I said I think. Unfortunately I was up til 1:30 this morning finishing up a paper and we did not get that chance to talk. Another week and half and I’ll be free for the summer. Phase 1 down, 3 more phases to go.

Going to Loose 200 – I know how you feel. I went off program and thought I was doing well with maintaining, then I found I gained back almost 15lbs of the 30lbs I lost. The most important part is, you have gotten yourself back on the wagon! WELCOME BACK!

HpNotg – I hope all is well!

Luxorbrea – I’m so glad to hear things are well with your daughter. I know when I first had my asthma attack it was horrible. I can only imagine how your daughter felt. *big hugz*

Dogpal – Thank you! I will be a free woman by June 13th! I’ll have more time to work on myself AND landscape I’m so glad your back is feeling better! Don’t over exert yourself at Curves! Take care!

Today at 1:15 p.m., I have my luncheon on work for my Diet Club. I have my final weigh in on Thursday this week for the club. I’m looking forward to seeing all the losers that came out of the club. I know many of the ladies have lost around 10lbs each the last time we spoke. Many of them only needed to loose about that much to get back on target, but good for them for getting there!

Tonight my 8th graders are graduating. Unfortunately I have an exam tonight for one of my classes *cry* I’m going to speak with my instructor when I get to class. He’s very understanding, we shall see what happens.

I gotta run. Gotta get ready for the luncheon. I wish everyone well!

Take care…

Brenda -- I totally get it. However, it doesn't do us much good to bemoan what could be -- though I think I do it frequently!! Allow yourself a very small pity party and licking those bumps and bruises. And then go back to knowing what you can do.

While I'm not expecting it, I realize how easy it is to fall off plan and off the wagon. If it happens to me, would someone please give me similar advice to think forward to my thinner future, rather than back to where I want to be??
