Wednesday Chat 9/1

  • Well, one DD gone and one to go!!! Then it's off to work I go. I liked it better when I had 1/2 hour to myself in the morning OH!! And a step on the scale showed more weight gone--which puts me back to my siggie weight. WOOHOO!!! It's a GREAT day!!!!
    Hope you all have a good day also!!
  • Morning Brenda: Kids around here have been back in school for a month already. Seems like they start earlier and earlier every year here! Congrats on getting back to your signature weight! I knew you could do it! Hope you have a great day!

    Well, I have been MIA for a few days. I have just been so tired I have been sleeping in a little in the mornings and then napping when I get home in the afternoons! I so wish I could get back some of the energy I had before I got pg. I am not the type of person to nap in the afternoons during the week, but seems like I can't go anymore if I don't! Oh well, maybe it's just getting me rested up for the sleepless nights that will be here soon We didnt' make it to the beach this past weekend, because it was so rainy and messy. We just stayed around here and did a little shopping. This weekend is holiday weekend, and will be so crowded we aren't going either. Hopefully next weekend we will be able to make it down! Well, not much happening here today, just work work work Hope everyone has a great day and I'll check in a little later!

  • Good morning

    Brenda: Kids in my area just went back today....buses are rollin again! Glad the scale is moving for you.

    Lisa: I hope you take all the rest you need.

    Scale is moving for me too.......funny.....no cheese....scale goes down I remember Atkins saying that cheese can stall you sometimes. Interesting.....or it is just that I am eating less now that I don't have my cheese and nuts and pepperoni to snack on during the day. I have been bringing celery and cucumbers with cream cheese.
    Going out to dinner tonight with a friend. Hope I can find something legal. The place we are going to puts a loaf of bread on the table!!!!!!!!!!
  • Good morning ladies,

    Well I did OK yesterday, I had a kinda legal lunch when we had a work meeting lunch and I did the best I could, I took one sip of milk last night before I remembered what I wa doing...hahahahaha But I fought off the cravings last night and I know today will be better. Eating sugar is so bad for me, the first day back OP is always the hardest for fighting off those sugar cravings, but if you can get through that it is all good after that. Starting back to the gym today too which will feel nice!!

    Jane: great job on dumping the cheese and nuts, i have the worst time giving it up.

    Lisa, rest....rest....rest my dahlink, you will need it. I hope your baby is like both of mine and sleeps through the night at 1 month old (if you can get through the first month you are home free) that is my wish for you!!

    B- EXCELLENT JOB on getting to sig weight!!
  • Lisa: glad you've been resting. You sure need that. Sorry you didn't get to the beach. There should be more beach weather coming up shortly

    Jane: congrats on the weight loss also. I don't remember the book saying cheese could stall you. Looks like I need to re-read it again!! Maybe that's what my problem was before!

    TG: Have fun at the gym!! Do some workouts for me to while you're there

    Well, the morning HAD started out so well. Then oldest DD missed her bus. How you ask? Well, the stupid paper they sent us said the bus would come at 7:45, which I thought was late, but I figured they knew what they were doing. So at 7:35 we get outside and we see a bus up the road. DANG!! So I'm like, Ok, I'm going to wait until 8:00 to make sure that WAS her bus. So 5 after rolls around and I call the bus garage to see if the bus HAD gone through already. He sounded SO shocked---then informed me the bus HAD gone through......at 7:00!!!! OMG I was SOOO mad. SO of course I lodged a complaint!! Turns out we're not the ONLY ones that missed the bus. A boy up the road did also, so I gave him a ride to school. GRRRRR!!!!!
    OMG. Just realised something...it's the 3rd day and I'm STILL OP!!!! WOOHOO for me!
  • You go Brenda!
  • I'm getting my bike on Friday!!!!! WOOHOO! I am so excited. It is supposed to be a beautiful weekend too! Watch me go!
  • Congrats on finally getting the bike Jane. hope the weather stays nice so you can enjoy it

    Alright...WHY are my lips SO dang DRY?????ARGHH!!!!!
  • Hi gang!

    Sorry I have been MIA the last couple days! I am still adjusting to the new school schedule!

    I wanted to check in and tell ya all that I went to see my OB/GYN today.. I am definitly having a hysto. Looks like October 25 (tentative until the hospital gets back to the doc)

    So I might be a little panic stricken the next few weeks.. but I am at peace with the decision.. just scared about going under the knife again...
