April, I'm relieved to hear GD's breathing is better. She'll continue to be in my prayers.
Marble - 22" - that is still my idol. You got me to finally measure last night. That was totally depressing until this morning and the scale proclaimed I lost 2 pounds. YEAH!!!!
Cathy, way to go on the jeans. That is the neatest feeling in the world. You sure deserve it with all your hard work. BTW, I'm bad. Really, really bad. At first I was reducing the meds slowly, being that I was responsible adult. Then bam, on Sunday I forgot to take my meds (honestly it wasn't intentional) and since the withdrawal symptoms weren't too bad, I cold turkeyed it. I couldn't help it, I was impatient for them to be gone so they're leaving the harder way. I must admit, I don't regret it. I feel so much better, it's amazing. Even music sounds prettier in my ears now. Everything is brighter and clearer. Was that the AD or the mood stabilizer, I don't know. All I know is that I will try natural remedies in the future. Just like I want Armour instead of synthroid. You are helping you DS withdraw in a much more responsible manor and I think it's best for him, especially since he recently had a problem at the video store job. You're a great mom.
Leenie, sorry about the boss being around. Works more fun without the boss even if you like the boss.
CIN, that shake sounds excellent. I printed out the thread so I would have it for tomorrow - I have to get the pudding first. I love shakes so thank you so much.
SueMarie - the game sounded like fun. I love going to sporting events. It's so easy to get swept into the thrill of it.
KO, congrats on passing up the chocolate lasagna. Just the name sounds sinful. When I am slender and at Olive Garden, I think I'll make a point of having that as a treat. Isn't it sort of fun to watch other people indulge while being good? It's interesting watching other people overeat and know that I'm trying my best to never do that again. It sort of reinforces what I'm trying to do.
Carla, swallowing razor blades sounds bad. Go get a culture. And good for you for seeing a weight loss. I think AD really do pay with one's metabolism.
I had another good day eating, exercising and drinking water wise. Actually, it was a good day overall. I'm making progress and that's the best motivator for me. I haven't had that in a while so this is a nice change.
Have a great night everyone.
Marie
. It's a French-Canadian invention, fries with cheese curds on them and then canned gravy poured over. The cheese melts and it all blends together and tastes SOOO good and has several million calories per bite.
