Oh gawd... good one, Ruth.

[Ruthxxx]

tee hee - can you tell I'm marking time waiting for Gail to finish cleaning the kitchen floor? It shouldn't take long as I had to wash it yesterday.
Somehow I doubt I'm going to make 194 by next Monday!

[dentrassi]

HEY!! I'm only 15 to 20 pounds OVER 200 right now, and I think it is going to take be a BIT longer than that to reach perfection!!! (Even though I AM wonderful....and humble too!!!)

[squeaker]

I have failed miserably at the September Challenge. I am at 171.5, which would be up about 10 lbs. since May.

[mauvaisroux]

awww....poor Squeak! My sympathies I'm not doing that well either

You could always start fresh and join the Halloween challenge that starts on September 2nd

Hi girlies,
oh Squeakette, don't despair...did I spell despair wrong...it looks funny....lousy speller, always rely on spell check...and no spell check here...(i did, but I came back in and fixed it...think it's right now?)

Anyway, on to the Halloween Challenge Squeak...or maybe you need to make up your own thing...maybe the challenges spark your inner adolescent to rebel...my inner adolescent can be quite a nuisance. She was ornery and fiesty then and she hasn't changed a bit.

Well, my weight is 176.5 today, which is up a half from my last weigh-in...however...still a few days until September 1st right? And I was at the beach eating lots of snacks...so, if I'm a well behaved girl for the next few days and get lots of wonderful exercise, I may be 175 by the first...a girl can dream can't she?

which reminds me, Squeak, maybe you should take a Scarlet O'Hara approach...what was her line about not worrying about stuff...come on Ellis, you're the literary one...

or maybe Blanche DuBois..."why, Ah jus luv comin in here with you lovely girls and chattin about ma weight...you see, I've always relied on the kindness of strangers..."

see you on the first...I'm goin back to the beach...
love, soozie

I think that was Rhett, wasn't it? "... I don't give a damn!"

Squeak, you're still a babe and you're still a NICE person (I mean that in the nicest way ). The fat'll come off. You couldn't BUY your looks and personality. Not to mention your bulging brains.
xoxo

Soozie, welcome back from the beach!

[dentrassi]

FIDDLE DEE DEE.....

[sflake]

I can't think about this today, I'll think about it tomorrow...

[ellis]

I hear ya, Sflake. Me, too.

[mauvaisroux]

It was Rhett saying : Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn!

[squeaker]

Thank you chicks for the encouragment! I really appreciate it. Even if it does make me blush. I refuse to buy new clothes so I need to get my butt in gear for the Halloween challenge!
