Hello friends. I hope you all have a wonderful day. The weather is absolutely beautiful here in WV. It may reach 80 degrees today! :) I hope to get out during my lunch for a quick walk. So far this week, I have had OP days and hope to do the same today.

Hope everyone has a great day! I managed to stay OP yesterday, after being off for 5 months. Whooohooo, found my motivation again! Summer is just around the corner. Looking forward to sporting a hot new bikini!

Hi! Have a great day and hope you have an easy OP day! Summer day here in Maryland!

ARG. I gained 2lbs from being stupid. Now I know that I can't have "just one" and that carb control ice cream is a no no. Arg. I can't wait until my new food gets here because Atkins is just too permissive for me. I can't do it.

Also, I'm royally ticked because our puppy came upstairs, looked me in the eye, and then proceeded to pee on the rug in my bedroom. Apparently that was the only reason she came upstairs too. Oh well, now I can get rid of the rug.

Good morning all!

Another day....hoping to get through the week soon!


Nothing new here- have a good day all!:)

Morning everyone!
I hope every one of you have a great and 100% OP day! One day at a time!

I got on the scale this morning because after my last WI of -0.4 lb on Saturday, I was worried that I was going to have another bad week.. I couldnt help it!! My wii fit says I am 129.2! That's almost 2 lbs gone so far this week! This is the first time i've actually weighed myself outside of my weekly WI and it gave me peace of mind that i'm going to have a good loss this Saturday AND keep me even more motivated to stay OP! AND I'M IN THE 120's!! WOW does it feel great!
:dance:

Can't wait to weigh in tomorrow..getting so close to the end of P1! It really does happen!!! At first I thought it was light years away...and then I blinked!!! Keep it up everyone! :)

Way to go CassiR!!!

Morning all. My huge NSV was that for the first time in years I didn't take any insulin last night. That's right, no more injections for me! My blood sugar was perfect this morning without it and I simply couldn't be happier. :D

Have a great day!
