Wuv, love your avatar pic! You are looking good!
Endless Dieter!Finn posted a mini meatloaf recipe on his thread here: http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/idea...inland-14.html Off to the health fair this morning to get my blood work results. We are expecting winter weather later today, up to 3 inches of snow, wind gusts and COLD. Winter is back.....sigh, we had TOO MUCH WINTER LAST YEAR! |
Finally my home scale is moving in the right direction this week as I finally got a Whoosh! love it because it really helps me stay motivated for the weekend.
I have some challenges today that are going to be tough and keep me surrounded with food, but I am feeling strong and just keeping my Tuesday weigh-in front and center in my mind. also going to remember how good that number on the scale looked this a.m.! |

Today is my big challenge too as it's my son's Bar Mitzvah this morning and his party this afternoon. However I'm not worried at all as all of my out of town friends and family have been here since Thursday and that means lots of eating out for us. But it's been fine and in fact I got on the scale this morning and I'm down 2 pounds since they arrived on Thursday. I guess I've been too busy talking to everyone to really pay any attention to their food.
Have a good Saturday everyone! |

We had our first snow on the mountains yesterday. Are you ready for the snow? Good luck on your results. |
Dana : That is great being down 2 lbs during the bar Mitzvah celebrations. Hope your event goes well today.
Boyz4 us: That is good news about the scale going down during your busy social weekend. I used the WI day as a reminder also..just keep going so I can have a good weigh in. WUV..I like your new picture. You are looking great! Last night I tried the Zuccini apple recipe from the Thanksgiving ideas thread. You use Walden Farm apple butter over zuccini soaked in lemon juice. It was quite good. I think I will use it for Thanksgiving. Have a great day everyone! |
Good Morning IPeepers!
Today was my first day of Phase 3. Greek yogurt, 10 cherries, toast and 1 T peanut butter, yum. However, my stomach is not feeling too great right this minute, we shall see. I was so missing my yogurt, it is so good for me and my digestion. I will still be on 3fc as I will go back to phase I after the first of the year. I am a slowwww loser,, so I figure I will be on phase I again for about 4 months and then back through to final maintenance, hopefully in the April time frame. :) Wuv, so sorry about your Aunt, so hard to watch ones we love suffer. Wuv, you look great in your new pic. Yvettski, Congrats on 40 lbs that is awesome. Freezing here, and my thoughts are going out to those who are still without power, we would have to go somewhere, since we don't have a generator and our wood fireplace got converted to gas. It was below zero last night. Hope you are up and running as we speak! |
Morning. I posted this on another thread but I'm so happy, I had to share it again. I had my WI this mornign and I'm down another 2 lbs. I'm getting really close to where I want to be. I'm not sure what the number on the scale will say, but I want to fit into all my old clothes again. That may be another 5-10 lbs but I'm not sure.

Good morning, hope everyone's having a great week-end so far!
wuv, you look amazing girl, wow!!!! WI#14 this morning, -3. So glad that having a restricted every day doesn't seem to affect my WI Its getting quite cold here and i had bought a beautiful fall/spring coat in the spring and now its way too big that i look ridiculous with the belt tied and i have a hard time moving in it as there's too much material so that really bums me out but happy too :) Have a great OP day! |
Good morning. I have my 8 yr old nephew sleeping over for the weekend. Lotsa different challenges. Survived yesterday. we usually have spagetti bake, lotsa cheese, mmmmmm. I made it for him, but I had a miracle noodle, hbrgr, stir fry. was sooo good. Went to the movies and saw Puss n boots. mmmmm popcorn. Did not have any! I had my own fizzy lemon water, and was satisfied w that. Did not cheat @ all :) So proud of myself :) Gonna have a weiner roast with him today, fun. And I have some veggie dogs to cook on the fire and i will roast some red peppers on the fire too. I just love this site for the inspiration and support to stay on track. Thank you :)

Thank you, I got a text from one of my aunts daughters last night. She was alert and talking last night. They had her so medicated on Oxy-cotton she couldn't function. She knew we all went visit her and to her she was talking but nothing was coming out because she was so drugged up. Quote:
