Hey everyone! Good to see ya!

I tend not to post too when I'm not following my plan, but I figure I should be posting my good and bad days just to keep myself accountable. It's one thing me knowing that I am messing up and it's another thing you all knowing I'm being bad.

Don't we really know if people are doing bad if they aren't posting though? I post whether I am doing good or bad.. I have no shame.. lol.

Nice to see you all posting! I will catch up soon.. but for now I am off to work!

-Aimee

Just a quick HELLOOO

I think EVERYONE should post on good AND bad days! I'm like Aimee, I have no shame. ****, right now I'm eating ramen noodles. Do you have how much freakin sodium are in these things?!

Not as much sodium as soya sauce! OMG 920MG per TBPS!

I just went for lunch, we went for sushi. I love sushi and things alike and I think I did very well.

I had:

gomae (Spinach with sesame)
grilled tuna
and one roll! (salmon and cucumber)

WOOOO Usually I would pick much unhealthier options!

Yay, everyone is back. We're only missing enygirl and Jen now. I have to admit the reason I stopped posting is because it didn't seem like anyone was around. I did join the TBL challenge, but I don't know anyone there so I feel to shy to post. Dang I'm glad to see ya'll

As for new names what about Keepin it Straight in 2008, Great in 2008, Slimming it Down Sisters, or Talk of the Scale. Can you tell I'm bored?

WOW those are all great!

I feel really depressed right now, like I just want to go home cry and then and sleep forever. I really hate feeling like this, in fact, I hardly ever feel THIS depressed. There is just too much crap right now. I still feel good about eating right today but at the same time I feel like it doesn't even matter any more, like nothing matters. What's wrong with me

Tomorrow is weigh in day, not looking forward to upping my ticker by over 10 pounds, probably almost 15!

Hi everyone! Ive had a pretty good day. Havent exercised yet, but im still sore from yesterday. Im almost done with my water, which is good, but I feel like im turning into a fish! Ive been drinking so much water! I actually start feeling sick if I dont have any water. My food choices have been great! Im still under my points, I saved some so I can have a little treat later. Tonight is our PTA meeting at school, and one of the mothers always brings in homemade treats, but she makes them LOWFAT ! Shes wonderful!

Its getting kinda creepy here. Im in Oregon, where NOTHING happens, weather wise... Well yesterday at the coast (which is about 2 hrs away from me) there was a 6.5 earthquake (luckily in the sea, about 100 miles out) ..which was weird cuz we dont get earthquakes...(no tsunami either) but today, about 50 miles from me, there was a flippin TORNADO!!! We DONT get tornados here! What will happen next?

Ok gotta go to my PTA meeting..

Have a great night ladies!

Randee - we are thinking of going to the Oregon Coast in March.. so hopefully all that stuff is DONE by the time we go!! Yah thats pretty crazy .. this weather stuff just baffles me! We've had a really mild/snowy winter.. sounds weird right? But it'll snow and be melted in a few hours and then it'll POUR for days! Glad we live ON the mountain and not at the bottom of it!

Rosario - work is good, still getting some nice free stuff, heh. I am starting to get greedy though! I want SO much and yet still can't afford to buy it myself. Did you watch Newport Harbor at all? OMG, love that show, and SO happy they did a "home for the holiday's" update!

Courtnie - this is my pep talk.. you cannot.. CANNOT focus or even THINK about your weight gain! It happened, it's done, and now you just have to get it off. Stop thinking about it!!! You gotta think positive, its the only way you are going to get outta this alive! You know what you want to do, it's not going to come off as fast, but you can do it in a way where you are eating MORE! Also, more veggies - I've been focusing on more veggies and have been impressed with the results. K.. all done!

hsmom - great names... start a thread!

-Aimee

Courtnie- (((hugs))) Sorry I forgot how to get the little icon faces and things. You do deserve your best and sometimes life makes it hard. Vent away if you feel like if maybe getting it off your chest will help. Let me know if I can do anything to help out. Don't worry about this weigh in. It's a new starting place so you'll know where you are. Glad you liked the names.

Purplecrush- It sounds like you've had a great day. Way to go. Keep up the good work.

The dr. went up on my thyroid meds and referred me to a GI. The GI now has be scheduled for an outpatient procedure. I'm down 1 pound at weigh in. Now, my total loss is 25.6#. So I recieved a charm for my 10% keychain, another 5# star, and a 25 # magnet.

Which name do we want?

I really think that "Keepin it straight in 2008 " is really catchy! Whatever you guys want.

Aimee- Oregon coast is beautiful. Mind you though, its not like Cali, where the water is warm and you can play in it...our water is FREEZING lol and you can get into it to your ankles and its too cold so you get out! Most likely you wont see girls in bikinis and men in shorts..pretty much everyone is in capris and a windbreaker LOL

Sorry, I am not depressed about the weight gain. I mean I guess I am, but hardly! I am just depressed about everything else, the weight gain is the farthest from my mind right now.

I am feeling a bit better now, I had a veggie/pasta dinner and a weight watchers chocolate cake for dessert and still stayed within calories (hoping my calculations from lunch were correct) - My mom had a really bad day too, I tried to talk her into going out for dinner witch would of been a disastar! But I had a big cry on the phone with her, then another big cry when karden got home - and I had a bath and snuggle with my puppy.

Just the quick version of why I feel like crap:
My boss is quiting, I love her bits and I think my job is going to go to the ****. I am not worrid about losing my job, just about me giving up and quitting. There is so much more to then that but it is long and boring.

Also, my mom helped my Grandma move into a 24 hour care nursing home today. She just couldnt look after her anymore. Last August she fell and fractured a vertebra - everyone said she would get better then the vertebra disintegrated and all the bone fragments were floating around in her spine... while still are - and there is nothing they can do for her they thought there was, but now they can't do it (got that news yesterday) - so my Grandma who was perfectly healthy until she fell may spend the rest of her life in a nursing home

Anyway, thats just the brief nots. blah.

I agree that Keepin it Straight in 2008 is really catchy but kinda like Slimming it Down Sisters better. Most of us have been chatting for well over a year now (almost two some of us!) and I feel like some of you are almost sisters!
