I got home from work about 10:30 tonight and I have been eating ever since. I haven't done this in a long time now. Fried chicken, laughing cow cheese and crackers, fruit, nuts, whatever. I just hope I don't get sick from it. What on earth was that about?

Hope - it's so odd, isn't it, when we don't KNOW why that happens? I did the same last night - no idea why...

Hang in there, hon.

Good to see you Sassy!! Feel even better soon!

Everyone else - have a great Tuesday!

Heather

G'day ladies.

Hope - TOM? That's usually what makes me go crazy with the munchies.

So... There's an ice cream social today at work. I'm NOT going... I'm Not going... I'm not going... My coworkers are boys and can eat whatever they want, adn they keep asking me why I'm not going and telling me how good the ice cream is. Blah! One of them told me I'd break down and go - which is good becuase now he's challenged my will power and I have a point to make so I can't give in. Incentive is good.

Coffee time!
Have a great day!

Good morning y'all! I'm overloaded with southern peaches here. What do you do with all these peaches? Maybe grilled chicken topped with warm peaches served over rice? hmmmmm

Hello all........
Well.......I need a couple of new pantsuits, so went shopping. Gee....if anything can depress a fat woman like me, it's shopping. Didn't want anything I tried on. Bought a couple of things that I'm probably gonna take back! I think I'm in the right place.........because, I'M REALLY DEPRESSED!!!

Gotta get serious with my weightloss!

Hope you all have a great day.

I haven't shopped for the longest time... it really sucks seeing a nice dress on display, walking into the store, trying the largest size, but STILL being unable to fit into it. Totally kills the self-esteem, or whatever t'was left of it.

Sighhhhhhh.

Good Morning

I agree, shopping for clothes is the pits. Even at my thinnest I could never find anything that looked good on me. I have rounded shoulders and that combined with my height... shivers !! lolol I do like buying my pants online at Roamans, I seem to have good luck with that store as they sell "tall" sizes.

Well lol, with that, have a good day chickies

Well...I was right....spent this morning returning.
Just about ready to give up.

I've got to get serious about my weight! I got let down a couple of weeks ago, and it threw me. I had really tried to lose a few pounds. My clothes were looser, and people were actually commenting that I was loosing. Then, I weighed at the drs office. I had lost 3 pounds! I know it was just a start, but, I actually thought I had lost more. Anyway, it got me out of the mood. Since I just turned 60, she reminded me it was harder to lose, especially with all my meds.

Enough about that...........gotta go look for something to wear.........

Momof4 Happy Birthday!! Hope you have a great one!!
Enjoy your camping.

Hi everyone,
It looks like they have most of the two fires contained and I just saw that people can return, but some are still on alert. Only three homes lost so that was good. Hopefully the winds stay down and they can get them 100% out. Not sure when the inlaws will go home, but I'm sure they will want to check out how much smoke damage they have to deal with.
We are having some beautiful weather here, total open fire ban for the weekend. Hubby got all the grass cut last night so it smells so nice out there.
My relaxation group is done not sure what the next one will be. It was kind of nice as 10 people were signed up for it but only three of us showed up consistently.

Hope and Sassy how are you feeling today?

Angel yes, shopping is one of the worse things going. The lighting in the change rooms sure doesn't help!!

Heather glad to hear you are feeling better and still time to rock a bikini this summer!!! Go you!

Well I have to go clean my kitchen, didn't feel like it last night and evidently no one else did either.


Take care everyone
K

Hello Ladies..

to all our newest member. It nice to meet everyone

Leenie ~ Sorry for your loss.

mom ~ turning 30 is really just another day. I turned 30 this year on March 8th. The only time it even bothered me was when my friends picked on me because I was thirty. Other then that the day just went by. Now most of the time I forget about it and don't think about being thirty. Have fun camping. Hopefully everything goes well with your foster daughter.


Hope/Heather ~ Eating all day long happens. Sometimes you don't know what or why your are doing it. I sometimes think that your body is telling something and it wants food. Sometimes it can be the men in your life It seems most of them can eat whatever they want and not gain weight.

Marbear ~ Sometimes having a treat like ice cream isn't to bad as long as you don't have a lot of it. But its even better when someone challenges your will power and you can prove that you can do it.

oogi ~ peaches are yummy.

Angel ~ Shopping is horrible especially when your overweight. I refuse to buy anything else until I lose some weight. I only have about 3 shirts and 2 pairs of jeans that look right. I don't like wearing shorts anymore or even capri's. I hate to look at myself in the mirror when I buy anything. It make you seriously depressed.

Coming home on Monday from Maine didn't seem to work out. I actually ended up staying a few more days and got home about 3 hours ago. The weather was pretty decent tho. It only rained yesterday. As for my diet. It went completely out the window the whole time I was in Maine. There was constant cookouts and so much good food that I think all I did was eat.

I did learn how to make this really good pasta salad. Its easy to make it low calorie and low fat.

I did exercise two days in a row. We went swimming in a stream and it was so hard to do. The current was unbelievable. You could barely walk across with the current pulling at you. So it was like weights on your legs. Then we swam up to wear it wasn't so bad. There was a rope swing which I wouldn't go on but the guys did. The best part was floating back down stream to where we started. We had to work at keeping ourselves above water all the way and it was a workout on the arms.

Tonight for dinner I said I wasn't cooking. So we ended up getting Chinese. Yum. I had Chicken & Rice Soup and 5 Crab Rangoons.

Then of course today is my daughter's 6th birthday. I still can't believe she's 6. I don't get to see her today but I talked to her. I will be seeing her on August 1st. I can't wait.

Have a good night ladies.

Hello All!

First wanna wish Momof4 a Very Happy Birthday!



I sooooooooo did not wanna get up for work tonight...... its one of those rainy nights that you just wanna sleep........ Oh well at least its my "Friday"!!

Angel -- Yes I agree as well, I hate shopping for clothes for both me AND my DH who is not just "big" but very tall. That combination isn't easy to find, esp if you don't wanna spend a fortune at the Big and Tall stores! I'm the complete opposite of him I am short and fat! lol. I usually order my pants offline, it seems easier to me. Esp once I have a place I like. Shirts are pretty easy, but sometimes it can be a challenge esp if you like a certain style and they only have it in teeny tiny sizes! Have you tried womanwithin.com? That is where I get some of my clothes, not too bad. Anyways, on the 3 pounds weightloss! I see it as a loss is a loss!

Buddly -- Sorry to hear about your inlaws, hope its not too much damage! I am feeling better, thanks, but I think I gave it to my DH as he is now sick.

Purefire -- Glad you had fun in Maine, I've always wanted to go there......Mmmm Chinese..........I love Crab Rangoons!!!!

Well take care everybody!!!!
