Amazing!
 

Do I :listen: POOL PARTY! :dancer::dance::high:
That doesn't even look like the SAME pool! ;)
:woohoo: I'll be at your place on April 1st to christen that POOL! :woohoo:

Here is a sign I think you should put on the fence....

Love the sign!!! I think I may just have to make one like that to put out there... Yeah, I couldn't believe the difference in it from day one to the end. I have a hard time seeing how things could look. I took pictures from Day one through Day Eight. It actually only took them eight days to get it done but it was over like a month and half. I know my Dad would be smiling knowing that I took part of the inheritance and fixed it up. He always enjoyed having his. I don't think mine will be warm enough the first of April but after having it uncovered and letting the sun warm it up for a few weeks it should be ready. Just hope the weather is nice enough the first part of April to uncover it.

WooHoo!
 

I hear you on that... And I just saw where there are lots of people without power in Oklahoma---and you know they have to be miserable. I'm in the house with the fireplace going and still cold! And yes, the poor farmers, that is so sad that they are having it so rough. And that will pass down to us by the prices in the grocery store. But we really shouldn't complain too much about that as long as we have the money to buy---- the farmers may lose everything. Sad..

Argh! Where is the "Shift"!?!?! I feel really yucky today and I'm pretty sure I am getting enough fat and protein. I'm ready to go to bed and it's only 4:20 ET!

On the bright side I did notice today that my skin looks much better! I can always tell when I've got too much sugar in my system because I look extra old and tired. Today I looked a lot better. I'm just too tired to move. Help!

:wave: Hi Kim, Gosh, I should have figured that out, I wasn't thinkin' I guess. :thanks: Carolis said you would like the Ezekiel bread machine recipe?
I would be happy to share it. :comp: Today is my 4th day on this crackin' and my energy is way low. :faint: Only 3 more days to go. I can do this.:carrot:
I've lost 5.8 pounds so far. Congrats. on your 3 pound loss.
Have a great day,
Blessings,
Linda H. (cajungirl)

Hi Linda, That bread recipe sounds like something that I would like also. Would you like to put it in the thread for the recipes here. Kim started a thread just for recipes.

Did you say you have been on this plan for 4 days now and lost 5.8 pounds? That is great.. Congrats!

My books didn't come today maybe tomorrow.

Hi SkinnyK10: I'm feelin' yucky today too:dz: Hang in there...it will get better!:yes: I have 3 more days of the Deplete and then things should start looking up? :bike:
Take care,
Linda H. (cajungirl)

Thanks for the encouragement! I appreciate it!:hug:

Hi Ladies,
I was not feeling well today and then realized why! At least we're ll in the same boat and know what to expect!!!
Thanks to KIm and everyone else for the info and support!

Hang in there - SHIFT is right around the Corner!
 

A BIG Ditto on that, Karen! :hug:

Yep, the "SHIFT" has NOT hit me yet...:faint: So to keep my somewhat energy going today - I made sure I ATE all 6 meals - come on SHIFT!!!! :dizzy:

:woohoo: Yes, that would be GREAT if you would post that on our Recipe thread - here is the link for it, just click on it and post it, OK? :thanks:

My :goodscale: doesn't do fractions - so I have to use the good old whole number. I guess I can live with that - not going to buy another scale till this one gives up the ghost! ;)

:cry: Maybe it will be soon, deliveries have been STRANGE this time of year. :hug:

GREAT JOB Bonnie! :dancer:

Ok, I got through this day pretty well, but had to eat all SIX meals to do it. My energy is sluggish too - but I KNOW that "SHIFT" is just around the corner! ;)

That will be super if you post your recipe for the EZ bread on the recipe page. I know if you and dh enjoy it, it must be delicious. :carrot:

:congrat: on the 5.8 pounds!! :bravo: :cheer:

Your more than half way to the second week. How's dh doing? Don't want to leave him out. Here's a :hug: for him. ;)
Well, gotta hit the sack.

Looks like everybody is doing great this week.

Carolis :broc:

HI all y'all - just checking in! Good luck to everyone finishing out the deplete week this weekend. WE CAN DO IT! I'll post my loss on Mon morning. Hope it's a good one!

:cry:No books again today--- but I did have a pleasant surprise when I got on the scales this morning---- down 4 pounds. YAY!!:woohoo: I haven't even tried to get started on the plan yet but have been cutting back on carbs and maybe this will help prepare me for the Deplete week! I would like to get a scale that shows fractions too-- but my goodness there are so many to choose from..any thoughts on these? Also something I wanted to ask about-- my hubby likes the skinless chicken breast which is fine but I was wondering if buying the thighs (for me) would be more in line with the portion size? I want to get everything set up for success!
