Good morning. I got very little sleep last night. My daughter called me from college very excited about call backs(she is a double major in theater directing and performance), and wanted to talk. That was midnight, oh my. Oh well, it is not the first time I have gone on little sleep and tonight is a quiet night at home.
I have a promo to do at lunch for a singing valentine group I am in. It is at the country club for local chamber of commerce to drum up interest. It will be fun, but I switched to alto because we are low on that part and I got the music two days ago, gulp. Oh well, wing it. We need to wear white on top, black on bottom, and luckily I bought some new black dress pants that fit last weekend so I will not be tugging those up.
Wish me luck!
Sounds like so much fun - good luck!!

Hope everyone has a great day!
That is fantastic - you are doing a great job!!
Hi to everyone -
Starting my Day 1, first time ever and I am ready!!!
Yesterday was interesting as I introduced my little guy to sweet potatoes. Boy did he get so excited. When i picked him up to give him a bath after our little adventure his little hand snuck into my mouth and grodie baby food..... eh not to worry. Day 4 of my reboot and doing really well. Have one of my cousins and her husband OP and it's nice to hear her success and how she's adventuring.
This morning added 1/8th teaspoon of coco powder to my spinach shake and dang... i forgot how chocolaty that make things.
Something I used to do when I was on here before was post a daily inspirational quote:
So here's today's.
I'm not losing weight, I'm getting rid of it. I have no intentions of finding it again.
Well Aunt Flo's in town so a small loss this week. Didn't quite hit 145 yet. :/
Eh, don't sweat it. 145 is awesome - getting close to it - amazing! Congrats!

Got some Quest bars the other day - love, love, love the Cinnamon Roll and Strawberry Cheesecake ones, yum! Unfortunately, so does my son...
Yeah, I have a hard time with the carbs too. I tend to cycle them in and out -not always having them. Depends upon my daily.

It was the sweetest compliment anyone has ever said to me in regards to the weight loss. I'm passing that compliment down to you because you look so happy in that picture!
Aw, thank you! And congrats on such an awesome compliment to have been received! Hold that one close to your heart and, in those trying times, remember it. It's true!

Aw, shucks. Thanks! These photos made me realize that I don't mind having my photo taken. ... especially when - literally - some construction guys went by and did cat calls. I will admit I liked it a little bit as it was all nice stuff like "Aw look at that smile."
You were correct about direct messaging. I was just asking if commenting on what people say 20 times...was what I needed to do in order to be able to then direct message someone.

Haha, oh yes. Responding to threads will build up your posting count!

Ladies, I am near tears right now and need to share. My size 12s have gotten loose and baggy so I went shopping at lunch. Got myself two pair of size 10 pants and am ROCKING them. I can't say this out loud to anyone in real life, but MY BUTT LOOKS FANTASTIC!!! I am so grateful to IP, and to all of you on this forum. I'm just in shock.

Sarita Thanks Doll! Your new pic is fantastic. You have been such a great influence on me thru out this journey. Seeing that you also have a budding career and busy schedule and been able to keep on track is a HUGE motivator for me (and yes I'm a little competitive. )

That is AMAZING! So happy for you!
So happy for you!
