Been really busy lately - one of my coworkers is on vacation and I have to cover her job while she's gone as well as do my own. Oh well, it keeps me out of trouble and away from food, which is a good thing as I have hit the dreaded "p" word for the last 2 or 3 weeks, gaining and losing these same 2 pounds. It's getting really frustrating to the point that I almost left COD in tears the other day. However, I still did manage to resist the drive-thru at Tim Hortons this am and avoided that donut - even though I wanted it realllly bad. Now, if only I can make it through the weekend. DD is in a horse show this weekend, and healthy food choices are extremely limited there.
Happy Birthday dear Tina:celebrat e:
Maybe Angie will make you one of her famous cakes YUM!
I feel like it's my birthday too today, as I finally worked my way back into Onderland!!!! My WI this morning was 198.8. Now, the trouble is, I am leaving to go to Wisconsin today..........and I NEVER do well at my mom's house........but I am going to try try try to at least lose 0.2 lbs while I am gone. It may be a lot to ask, but I never do..........I always just tell myself I will be good. Maybe with a goal in mind, I will actually do so. Ok, I am now only 10 lbs away from where I was a few months ago......and starting to feel a bit more confident that I can do this. For a while there, I was really beginning to doubt that I could do it anymore.
Well, I should get packing.........haven't really even started yet, and I have to be ready at any given time, as DH is fixing the air conditioning in my Suburban right now, and when he is done, I will have about 1 hour. I like to live on the edge
Have a great day today, and a fun, ON PLAN weekend!!! Monday's WI will be sooo worth it
XOXO
Good Morning Everyone. I haven't posted much this week - things are crazy, crazy at work. Oh well, it's Friday. That makes everything much better. I'm going to my DD's this weekend in St. Louis and we are going to the Melting Pot. Does anyone know what this is and will they have anything I can eat? I asked my DD and she said it's mostly fondue. Hopefully that will mean veggies and fruit. I also asked at my COD and they just told me to do the best I can and drink lots and lots of water. I've been stuck at 178 going up and down the dreaded 1 to 2 pounds the last 2 weeks and I'm hoping that with this little outing I don't end up gaining a bunch. Maybe I'm just paranoid about this. I just did FF the last 2 days so won't be able to do a TO for a couple more weeks. Thanks for letting me get this out. Maybe I can get a better grip on this since I've written it down.
You guys and gals are just awesome with all the support and encouragement and the kick in the pants we all need at times.
Laurie..........be ready to melt....and not at the melting pot.......it is horribly hot here. I am outa here this weekend, going to the nice shores of Lake Michigan.......where there is a cool breeze and where the temps go down with the sun!!!
Nicole- I am having an absolute blast shopping! I'm buying size 10's in dress pants, 12's in jeans, they dont give like cotton does! LOL
I took 3 pair of pants and a couple of skirts in the dressing room the other day all size 12 and they were all too big. I'm not used to having to go back for SMALLER sizes! My brain has to catch up with the smaller sizes!
Thanks for the happy birthday wishes. I just got back from my manicure...it was really nice! There was a little girl there whose birthday is today. She turned 5 and was getting her fingernails and toenails painted...too precious!
Kim - that's fantastic! I've been enjoying clothes shopping much more lately. I told DH that I wanted a gift card for my birthday so I can buy some clothes, but I keep changing my mind on which store is my favorite. So he gave me $250 cash and told me to have fun! WOOHOO!!!! My first thought was...I need new underwear and a pair of flip flops. I know, I'm a wild and crazy girl.
Hi everyone! I hope you all are having a very blessed day! I WI this morning (dreading because of TOM) and I was down 5.0! I was so happy! I had gained 3.0 while on vacation last weekend, so I lost that, (again) plus 2! I am really starting to get motivated now. I am almost at my goal of losing 10 lbs by Aug 15.
Is anyone else having trouble changing there tickerfactory tickers? The website wont load for some reason!
Hope everyone has a POP weekend! God Bless You!
Oh, and Happy birthday Tina, and congratulations on all of your weight lost! Buy something pretty for me!

Reason: To add something
LOL Tina! You could buy a lot of underwear and flip-flops for 250 dollars!!!
I used to laugh at my DD, shes addicted to panties. Everytime we go in a store she has to have a couple of pair. Wellllll since the weight loss and the TT I've gotten quite fond of sexy undies too! LOL I wore granny panties for so long that I'm having a blast buying something that doesnt come past my belly button! LOL
Kimberly! WOW good for you, thats an amazing loss!!!
