Well, Kim, at least they got to root of the problem... Sorry.. That was a little toungue in cheek... Don't you just hate it when people just keep grinding on and on about things? They always gum up the works!!

:lol:... I'm here all week.. Try the veal!

Busy day for me tying up loose ends before taking off the rest of the week..

Doing well diet wise.. Had a chicken bowl with extra veggies and less rice for lunch.. There was probably about two LAWL servings of rice in that (can't imagine what the "full" order of rice would have been), but since I anticipate having a grilled chicken salad for dinner, I think I'll be ok...

Have a great evening, all!

Katy,
Congratulations on the loss. I'm sure you'll make it to one-derland by Christmas! I just got there not too long ago, it's a great feeling! Keep up the good work.

Kim-Glad you got your tooth taken care of. NOW rest and get rid of that sinus infection!

I bought all of the holiday flavors last year, based on Cassi's recommendations. They are really good. I like the gingerbread one... there is a nutcracker spice one that is good too.

Great picture, too!

Dan you are bad! Had me laughing though.

Kim, thanks for the info on the tea. I bet they don't have it in decaf. OHHHH!
I may have to get some anyway.

I'm so sad! I went to Kroger and they don't have any of the holiday CS flavors! I did find Lipton Vanilla Caramel Tea. Very yummy. ALMOST took the place of hot chocolate!

Hi All! Been away from here for a few days. I've have not been POP for quite a few days now and it's getting frustrating. Lots of parties/catered meals lately that make it hard for POP. I had been really good, not POP but good up until tonight when I had about 1/2 a piece of cheesecake at my dinner function. Ugh. I was suppossed to be POP til tgiving! I need to be good when I get home, leave tomorrow night!

I still need to catch up on the posts but hope you are all doing well!

Morning all. Holiday starts tomorrow!!! Last work day of the week today!! WOOHOO Got all the grocery shopping done last night so I just have to put it all together tonight and cook it tomorrow. We are supposed to get a cold front thru today so it will cool off. I'm looking forward to that.
I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving and one thing I'm remembering to be thankful for is the support I get from y'all. Yes I said y'all. You all, youse guys, yousems, whatever you say just stick it in there.

Hey all! I can't wait until tomorrow. I went to WI yesterday (down 1.6 Yeah!) and they asked me again what I was going to eat for Thanksgiving. I told them I was eating whatever my mother cooked :) They didn't like that idea, but I said I was going to enjoy every last bite!!! I may pay for it later, but I am not too worried. I will lose it again! Holidays are such a big deal in our family and I just can't wait until tomorrow!

Anyone planning on going shopping on "Black Friday"? I really hope there are not too many good deals, because I don't want to go. I probably won't end up getting my lazy butt out of bed in time :)

I, too, looked for the yummy tea last night and couldn't find it. I was so disappointed. I have to go to Walmart today, so I will check there. Hopefully I can track it down, it sounds so delicious!

Have a great day everyone, and if I don't get on tomorrow, have a Happy Thanksgiving!!!

hey everyone. just checking in for the day.
yesterday was pretty sad--since DH left yesterday. :(

and on top of all of that, i woke up with pink eye yesterday! can things get any worse for me? first strep throat (which i'm still recovering from), then a horrible cold, now a cough with that and now pink eye. ugh! so, i'm home from work today!

but the good thing is i won't be home alone for tgiving. a good friend of mine at work invited me to his house for dinner. and i'm baking some pumpkin cheesecake bars to take over there for his mom, just to help out with something and to say thanks for having me over. i've never been alone on the holidays so it's kinda weird for me to jump in with another family...kinda would rather be by myself, but i know that DH would hate that.


so, yeah. i'm so sick right now and feel horrible. but the good news is that the scale went down again today! yay!

hope everyone has a great holiday and is conscious of their eating and the lifestyle changes they have committed to. :)

My DS politely informed me that I'll be at Walmart front and center for an XBOX. I swore off black friday 13 years ago and have faithly stayed in bed since then. He's making me break that vow.

Wow Jillian - I have to believe that things will turn around soon for you. By the way, my hubby went into the Reserves when we were first married and I was like you and never had lived alone before. He was gone for over 6 months and I did not have family living anywhere near me. So I know exactly how you feel.

Take care. I know you always do. I am glad to hear about your Thanksgiving plans. I am glad the scale is going down for you.

week 46
LAWL franchise center
Plan 2 with lites
total lost 57 lbs.
Original goal of 50 lbs lost – achieved
New goal to lose total of 65 lbs

Woo hoo!!! I went to WI and guess what! I hit the 50-pound mark!! I am so excited!! I feel like I should make some sort of awards-receiving speech! I know I still have a long way to go, but I am so proud of myself right now!

thank you lynn. i appreciate the thoughts and kind words. :) it's going to be hard for me, but i know that i'm strong enough to get through this and strong enough to take on all the responsibilities i have ahead of me with moving. it all just seems to daunting right now, but i know things have to fall into place eventually.


felicia--congrats on 50lbs lost! :) yay!!! post a new pic of you, i'm anxious to see the change! great job! keep it going girlie!

Isn't it a wonderful feeling? You have done an awesome job! :hug:
