Hi and thank you. Today is a terrific day.

ez
Nice to see you are going to be closer to home.

momo
Glad to hear the results were good. It is tough having things done in the office. I will take loop me up any day of the week. Hope you are feeling better soon.


Alyssa
Nice to have you with us. Glad to see you are looking at getting healthy with a good view. This isn't about wearing a size 0. This is about eating the required amounts of the four basic food groups. Staying within some good basic ranges for your selfs and exercising ( or what ever healthy plan a person chooses ).

Hello, we have a great group here. We love to hear from each other and sure like to give support and encouragement. My week always starts on Sunday. I have found, a little prayer, a little song and a whole lot of animals and rice makes the week go pretty darn peachy lol.

Just
I have never known there not to be room for " just one more " at God's table. lol. Everyone around here has decided they love animals and rice. Use to be Sunday was beef, Monday chicken, Tuesday fish, Wednesday pork, Thursday chicken, Friday fish Saturday pot luck. Now every other day just about is chicken, beef, pork and fish lol. Because that is all the animals in the animals and rice lol.

Need some encouraging buddies!
 

Hello everyone, I have started today on my way to losing 50 pounds. I am a college student so i am on the go alot. I do not have alot of time to cook. I also need some ideas for snacks that are ok to eat. I would appreciate an suggestions! God bless you all!

Hischild
We are happy to have you. Veggies are great snacks and they help to fill in one of the required amounts of the four basic food groups for the day. Fruit is also another great snack but remember they do have a lot of carbs so don't over do on them. I happen to like the reduced fat townhouse crackers also.

Hi folks—I keep reading that there is always room for one more—must be a really large table!! I am hoping that since there is room, that I am allowed to pull up a chair and join you? My name is Alison and I have already done a “profile” in the 100lb club. I cannot place a link to it since I have not met the minimum post requirements yet, but let me know if you'd like me to paste it in this forum...

Anyway, I had lost 9 pounds over 2 weeks and hubby came home with cake and chips this past weekend…I’m afraid to step on the scale to see how much I gained back…Is is amazing how just one day of bingeing can cause so much damage, not only to the numbers, but to my psyche. I am hoping that this group will help keep me on track…what do you think? Y'all ready to do a couple laps with me?:^:

:wel3fc: HISCHILD & ALISON ~ there is always more room at GOD's table; I think that it miraculously grows on a daily basis ~ LOL!!! And ALISON, just get right back up on that horse and keep on going. There might not be too much damage; maybe you'll just stay the same, and that's OK too.

HISCHILD ~ yah, nursing is a very hectic college course with all the practical work and lots of extra studies. I had friends who went through for nursing and I remember how tuff it was for them.

SHY ~ yes, they are the fab four, aren't they??? LOL! But there are also beans, eggs, cheese, and meatless; but DH is an meat and potatoes kind of guy, so that settles it for us really ...;)

We had a gorgeous sunny day; we went into town for errands and shopping. Boy, there goes the day; but what a fun way to spend it ~ LOL! Anyways, they are predicting a mega-snowstorm, but I'm hoping it is just an April Fool's joke, but it was getting kinda windy when I took PIN PIN out at 10:00 pm. We can always pray that it will miss us, right??? :D

ANYHOW, hope everyone is well and had a great weekend; time to get down to the serious stuff again; lol! Take good care, your fellow encourager :hug:ROSEBUD:hug:^PRAYERS^ are flowing for you and yours ...

I am blessed to have found ths group! How was everyone's day? Mine was well! So I am not on any specific diet, I am just taking suggetions. I have really cut don on the sweets and moved from reg. mountain dew to diet. I know as soon as I say i can't have something, I will crave it. So, anyone have suggestions?

Hello Alison
God has the biggest table there is and he has given a leaf from it for our chat room. There is always room for one more. I am always ready to do a couple of laps with anyone lol. Next time tell the hubby no thank you. Nothing tastes as good as thin feels :). Unless that snack fits in to what you allow yourself for the day.

Just
My daughter love the fat free French dressing on just about everything it seems lol.


doit
I have become a celery nut. I eat the stuff all the time lol.


Hischild
I have a can or two of caffeine free mountain dew a week. I make sure it fits into what I allow myself that day. Have to have my DEW lol.

SO GOOD TO SEE NEW FOLKS! KEEP POSTING........BUT........

Good morning all! I am so happy I found this thread because I was just telling a friend that each day I have to pray to my higher power and ask for help! I am on day four p1 of the fat smash diet and I am doing pretty good! My main goal is keeping and having faith because I know I can do all things with the help of my higher power! Looking forward to getting to know all!

Good morning Matilda--
