Howdy
Good afternoon ladies. I was dragging some tootie this morning but I did eventually get my work out in and some lunch. I'm hoping to add a little dancing. Zachary found out he likes 80's music. I was feeling a little moody yesterday and I danced for about 20 minutes. It really boosted my spirits.
Solly..woman you have got this! Right this second right this minute just decide that you are worth it. No matter what you feel like, not matter what things seem like, you ARE in control, you are in CHARGE. Like the song you are WOMAN hear you roar. And you are loved, by your family, by us and by our precious Savior. He will fill help you get the jump start that you need. I pray that his precious Holy Spirit just fill you to overflowing and that you walk in his peace and joy. I'm so sorry that the dizziness came back. On a positive note it left. That means it can leave again. I truly believe we have the power to move mountains. And I pray that God will move this mountain and you will be back to your new stronger self soon. :hug::hug: Ellen...I would have been one whiny camper if the UPS man showed up at my house that early. I am not friendly first thing in the morning. I need time to get moving..LOL Maybe you can still make something Indian that isn't that strong in flavor. I've never had Indian but it would be like saying you don't like Southern cooking. It is so varied. Your new church sounds like a perfect fit. God is so good. Did you make it to the WA? Toni...Are you bored? If so we need to get you excited..:dizzy: You too can do this. You are one of the sweetest most precious people and you need to put you first. Get moving to keep that heart healthy and make it healthier. Moving also keeps us flexible and mobile. Make eating fun again. You can share ideas with me. I like healthy food but sometimes it seems a little bland since I'm eating "clean". Must be why I ate half a bag of chips the other night...shhh don't tell. :) Mercee...You are a rock star lady. I hate that when I get to my replies I don't have a lot to say but I think it is because I just need to get to know you a little better still. I know you are super and really seem to have this eating and moving thing down pat. How are the temps in your part of the world? It is just plain hot here. Back in the 90's for the next three days. I want fall back! :dizzy: I've been sitting at this keyboard for awhile. Somebody needs to give me a kick in the rear to get moving. Love you guys and hope today and this week is AWESOME!!!! Love and hugs, Crystle |
Good morning 2 ladies. Still doing fine. Woke up with a crazy headache this morning. Maybe it was hunger. You all will get a good laugh out of this one. I can't button any or my pants so I have resorted to wrapping a rubber band around the button an button hole. at least it helps them zip. I will get back in them. I am determined.
Crytle :hug: you are so sweet. I always have to hit rock bottom to get me motivated again. I just wish I could walk or do some type of exercise. The last time I lost all that wt with SB I didn't exercise until I had lost 50 lbs. So I can go maybe 20 w/o it and them hopefully I will be able to walk and do something. I think any kind of movement like dancing will help your mood. It at least takes your mind off stuff. Ellen, my doggie was freaking out this moring. The winds are really high and we are suppsed to have tornado warnings or watches later. I will check out those sites. I just need something or maybe I don't. SB is pretty much good eating. Maybe you should tkae that lady some of your Indian food and she might change her mind. I definately think you should paint Tom! Toni, you know how to do this also. I guess we just have to ask ourselve questions before we eat something. We can do this together. Come on. We have only gotten a sprinkle of rain in the last 2 days but supposed to be high winds and I guess some rain today Hopefully, but I could do without the tornado warnings. At least I have a few things to do this morning so I am off to eat my Greek yogurt and fruit. Have a great one. |
Hello Ladies:
Just wanted to stop through and say hello and see how you allare doing. Solly-You can do this. Maybe instead of just focusing on your weight focus on your health. I know they work together believe me if you focus on getting healthy the weightloss will follow. When I made the decision to really get my diabetes under control the weight is an added plus. You have achieved your goals before in this area so you can and will do it again. Toni- You can do it. It is hard to stay motivated when we are not seeing the results we want but you can do this. Let's press on. Ellen- Glad you are happy with your new church. Sometimes God leads us to another church. Crystle- Thanks for all of your encouragement on this board. We don't always have to say alot to each other but I know we are cheering each other on to victory. Once before I stopped posting because I didn't feel I had much to say but I decided this time I would stick it out. We all will get to know each other better as time goes on. We are having a wind storm here today and tommorrow. So far I have not got blown away. LOL Well back to work. I will talk to you ladies tommorrow. We are suppose to have winds of 50-60 MPH. Have a great day. |
You Ladies are the best. We can't win this race unless we choose to finish. Let's keep going.

Hello everyone! My computer has been acting weird for two days now. I think it is my wireless mouse though. I have found I can navigate with out the problem if I use the arrow keys. It is annoying.
I had lunch with an old friend today. We ended up sitting there talking for almost three hours. I think they wanted us to leave already... :) We went to a Chinese place and I got Moo Goo Gai Pan. It was mostly meat...which was weird. Very few veggies. It was good though. I only ate half or less of the rice. My cat has decided his best place for a bath is on my desk in front of my monitor. sigh....cats! I will try and get back here later to finish up when I can see what I am typing with out a furry orange head bobbing into my field of vision.... |
Just watched BL and I'm sorry for who they sent home. But then I always hate to see someone leave. Been a nice day. Celebrated DH birthday. I ended up having some pizza. Wish I would have had a salad instead. Tomorrow is another day and I hope I weigh in and get it over with. Maybe that will be my new start. Sorry I didn't do replies.

Ok, I am back, sans cat! Plus, something seemed to fix the problem I was having. I am not going to complain....I am just glad its fixed.
MERCEE: Yes, God does often lead us to a new church and this is undoubtedly the case here. :) There was a lot of changes at our old church, plus a good bit of what I can only call 'crap' going on. Its much nicer where we are. We took our time moving, and spent a lot of time praying about it.... SOLLY: I hope that dizziness has diminished a good bit, or gone away now. I smiled at your rubber band button extension. You are going to do this...back into those pants in no time! When you are tempted to eat junk, go put a pair on. :) COUNTRY: I did not have to greet the UPS man...I did not need to sign for the package, he just put it on the porch and rang the bell. I WAS up...just hanging out in my nightgown. I mean, really! Why should I get dressed before 9:30? Right? TONI: Hope all is well with you... |
:balloons: HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Toni's Steve! :balloons:

Good morning ladies! Hope the metal monster is good to all of you. I think I am down 3 lbs. Many more to go just to make the pants fit. ha-ha.
Crashed on the couch last night after the baby left. I was not feeling good and my head was so heavy. Better today except for my legs. One hurts from my back and the other foot is bruised or something but it hurtd to walk on it. I wish I had a day where I didn't complain about something. I bet you all do to. Mercee, I was wondering if you got blown away. I heard it was going to be bad in Chicago. My co-worker's DD lives there and she called and all we could here was wind. We actually had 2 tornadoes touch down and I think we had 80 mph winds at one point. Thanks for your encouraging words. I have done this before and I know what to do, but tht was 8 years ago and I am not as motivated as I was then. It will probably be slower this time. Ellen, I have to hit the reset button on my mouse and on my wireless connection sometimes. Then others, it is the battery. Your computer got fixed like our fridge. Went home last night and all was fine. Everytime I want to eat I really think about it and think about the pants. How is your foot? I saw in amagazine last night a brace for PF. It pulled your foot back. You could do that with a beach towell just as easily. Toni, hindsight is always 20/20 but then you would not have enjoyed the pizza. I make a veggie pizza from a ww pizza crust that I buy. It's fill the bill for me. Wish Steve a happy birthday for me. Crystle, hope you are having a blessed day. Are you still walking? Off to start this day. I had to get my lab work done this morning, but that is a piece of cake. DId I say cake? That was easy!!!!! Have a great one. |
Good morning
Woke with a sore throat again this morning. But other than that I'm feeling just fine. Had a good eating day yesterday. I'm still under for calories but getting there. Still doing videos every day. Yesterday was the three mile sleek walk. Not one of my favorites but a nice easier walk. Waiting on two more to come in. I have got to stay away from ebay. There are two at her site that I want but they are not in the budget. But they'll be old one day and on ebay..LOL :dizzy: Down one pound this week.
I'm running behind this morning so I'm gonna get for now. Be back later. (((Everybody))) Love and hugs, Crystle |
It is raining here....I am wondering where my cat is hiding. He is terrified of thunder. The old one is inside, looking at me like the rain is all my fault.
I hopped on the metal monster. I was up 1/2 a pound. I am hoping that is because my morning routine has not completed... hehe.... So I am drinking hot espresso hoping to speed the process up. I hope to report a 'same' at least... I have an appt. with my sleep doc this afternoon. I tried to get the card from my machine read yesterday. My insurance has changed their policy and now I am supposed to call THEM before I can take the card over to have it read. Makes me SO mad. When I got the machine, they told me I could bring the card in 'anytime' to get it read. Its such a racket! The first two times I did it, I was not charged. I think the insurance company is doing this so they can deny it if they want. Its MY machine, MY health, and there is NOTHING about the printout that would be detrimental for me to see with out a doctor explaining it...I can't even change my pressure. So why can't I just read the thing myself with my card reader here at home! Its stupid. THIS is the areas of health care I would love to see fixed...the incredible greed of the companies... So anyway, I got a late start and missed my water aerobics class. With the rain I don't think I will be walking. My foot is still bad anyway. I am feeling rather frustrated with it. SOLLY: I have the boots for PF. My friend had three and brought them over. I did use them some, but my AK Chiro told me not to bother, and gave me a few other things she wanted me to do to help it. I walked on Monday, and it really hurt yesterday, but the pain was not as intense as it has been...plus, it seemed to clear up with just a little rest and ice. Its not all better, but I think I am seeing some improvement overall. I go back to her on Tuesday, so I will see what she says then. Right now she has me icing it, and she told me to always wear my birks, always. (except in bed!) She also told me to pick stuff up off the floor with my toes. This exercises and strengthens the foot as well as works the tendon to increase flexibility. Tom was uber impressed by that because its very progressive...hehe... WAY TO GO on the three pounds! Its a great start! I know you are going to do great. |
COUNTRY: We were posting at the same time. I am sorry you have a sore throat. Will be praying for a speedy recovery. Does it subside after you wake up? It may be just from being dehydrated over night? I have that problem some...its better now, but it IS frustrating.

Good morning. Brrrrr.... its cool this morning. Coffee tastes good. Wish DH would get up so I could make some oatmeal. I'm going to weigh when Steve gets his lazy tail out of the bed. Know I've gained and want to get it over with and start fresh.
Crystle- sorry about your sore throat. Hope it clears up today. Solly- Congrads on the 3 lbs. That is great. Hope you're feeling a bit better today. Thats a good idea about the veggie pizza, I would have liked that too. Ellen- thanks for the happy birthday to Steve. I think he had a nice day. Are you going to paint today? I just really loved your onions. Mercee- Did you get the high winds? Are you still walking? Going to get off of here my computer is acting nuts. |
Morning ladies:
Solly- Congratulations on the 3 lbs.that is great!!! Crystle- Hope you feel better soon. A lot of people are getting sore throats lately. Toni-We had the very high winds yesterday. and a few tornadoes touhed down in surrounding areas. I don't walk outside much anymore I go to the gym. Thank God. I am not really interested in the Biggest Loser this season. I am behind 4 episodes. I will catch up one day. LOL Ellen- I hope your appt with DR. goes well. Insurance companies can be petty sometimes. Well I am down 1 pound this week. I feel great and I have on a skirt I brought 2 years ago that was to small so I could work toward getting into it. Well I made it. I feel great. I will keep going day by day until I get to my goal. Have a great day everyone. Congrats to all the losers!!! |
Weighed in and it looks like I gained 5 lbs. Next week will be better I'm sure. Right now I'm just depressed about how bad I'm doing.
Ellen- I'm sure your next week will be much better. You're probably retaining water. Mercee- congradulations on the loss. And fitting in a smaller skirt, what a good feeling. |
