Beanie - Being accountable to y'all on here sounds like a good idea ... BUT then again ... no one REALLY sees me and all I have to do is stop posting and such ... I need someone to kick me in the pants on occasion

i figured that you had to drink the water too, but was not told, and i was also told that the veggies were unlimited and it states that you can only have 2.

i have not had anything but some tea this morning, so feeling good not hungry at all. getting ready to have my first cantalope and orange. i hope that i am getting enough cant. there were no fresh ones so i had to buy the fresh pre cut ones, but i figured that 1/8 is not really that much, so i figured 1/2 cup. hope that is right.

Burr - it's cold here in the great lake state and is suppose to snow shortly. Really glad I picked up that new wool winter coat last weekend (at half price)

Hey Regina - Thanksgiving at church sounds like lots of good food to me With you record at losing - you'll drop the extra Thanksgiving/Bronson weight real quick. Besides keep in mind holidays are just plain hard for us humans

Beanie - Good for you calling out all the MIA's Here let me add afew Fiona and Audit Girl OH and Beanie, I'm not sure but I think if I remember correctly - I really really dislike TO too.

Toria - I have been eyeing that Magic Bullet for awhile now - so glad you gave it a thumbs up, hum....maybe a Christmas present for DH It won't be ther four wheeler he wants but we'll get more use out of it

Went to the doctor last night, my appointment was at 5:40 p.m. Well I got to see him at 12 midnight...got home at 1:30 a.m. (I'm beat). Anyhow he gave me good reviews, said I'm healing really well. I can exercise again now and have next week (is that TMI) Don't have to go back for 4 months........oh-rah He didn't mention my weight and was just very positive about how good I'm doing.......he is a great doctor/person He also said it was fine to go ahead with my bunion surgery...... That means I will have two weeks to exercise, then have bunion surgery and will be out of exercise commission for 3 weeks again.......dang - I hate it when that happens

Okay I have to run and do something around here.......catch you chicks later.....
Hugs-

Star - yeah, you have a very good point there ... It is my job to be a good role model for them ... especially my daughter, I don't want her to have the struggles that I have had ... but so far she seems to have wonderful self esteem ... so hopefully I am doing something right

Great news on being able to exercise !! Glad to see you getting back into the swing of things ... Is that love of exercise contagious ?

[Mom_of_3_Monsters]

Here you go beanie ... a not so happy face ... LOL !!

[Mom_of_3_Monsters]

Thanks ... Jake has that pout down pat, doesn't he ...LOL I could keep posting pictures, but I wont ...LOL I am sure that y'all don't want to keep looking at my pictures ...LOL I am such a proud Mom ! LOL

[Star]

Norissa - Jake's pout is priceless.......lol
About the exercise addiction bug. I tell everyone this, well anyone that will listen, just start working out, say 20 minutes a day but keep it up becuz it only takes 21 days to form a habit. I think the addiction comes right after that

Beanie - Thanks for the tip on taking it easy with the exercise, but I couldn't work out as hard as I want right now anyhow. I think that has something to do with our bodies knowing more than we do And heck I will enjoy just putting my workout clothes back on........yoga pants, tee shirt, headband, wrist bands, and ofcourse leg warmers -

Hey Everybody.

Well, today is day 2 of TO. I did REALLY well yesterday and I have to say that going through it with a buddy makes all the difference. Beanie, you ROCK. One more day and we are DONE! YES!

TO day 1 went well. I was hungry but not overwhelmingly so. I weighed this morning and was back down to my pre - Thanksgiving weight, dropped 2+ lbs yesterday. Wow. If I lose even 1 more lb on TO it will be time for me to move the big ticker again. That would be so amazing. So amazing. Could my long long long long long awaited 30 lb avatar be within reach? Do I dare say?

Star - Glad that the dr gave you good news. No I don't think that was TMI. I like your choice of icon. Glad you didn't go with the pilgrim and the turkey, THAT woulda been way TMI.

Norissa - Maybe if you weighed daily and kept a log? Either that or used the WI thread here? I don't think you want the butt-kickers visiting...sounds like that could be brutal. JMHO.

Metal - Who was it that said you keep us in line? They were right, and thank you... . There's a reason you're down 90 lbs and on maintenance. Can I get a WOO HOO?

Julie - Working in a photo studio sounds like a load of fun. The way you're losing it doesn't seem as if you're having any problems with the plan, but I can relate to the way things go wrong when we forget our foods!

Here's wishing everyone a POP day. Tomorrow I get food again!!!!!

[Star]

Carmen - WOO-HOO about Metal.....

Mary - Glad you are back and with so much common sense about this plan....throw some of that my way please

[SyracuseNY]

Hi ladies: Took me a while to get through the posts since my last entry, I was still reading from Nov but I'm now caught up.

Carm: Woohoo for doing TO. I haven't done that in a while and I think I'm due. I wouldn't tell anyone from the COD, but I love the taste of TO juice. Good thing for me is that it's so expensive using their stuff.

Star: WAKE UP! Did I scare you? Great news from the Dr, and you must be in great shape in order to heal so quickly. Any restrictions? Remember, you will have to ease into exercising as you are the only one that will know what your current limit will be post surgery. My BIG question is, where the heck did you find a doctor that keeps business hours until midnight?

Julie: Are you enjoying working at the studio? Sounds like fun with all the holiday pictures. Good idea about planning and bringing your own food.

MarBear: Welcome back. So glad that you came back and are doing well.

Work is calling me, be back later. Hugs, Sy

[Star]

SY - yes you scared the heck out of me..
My doctor is a specialist, oncologist/gyoncologist. So most of his patients are refered to him from other doctors, mostly cancer cases. So he works to demand. The first time I went to see him my appointment was at 2:30 pm, I saw him at 8:30. When I got home, went to bed, my phone rang at 12 midnight - it was the doctor telling me that he thought he could be successful with my surgery (after going over all the test results sent to him). That was on Dec 10th 1997, I had the surgery on Dec 23rd and was in the hopital for 6 days.....I had ask him if the surgery could wait til after the new year and he said "you don't wait with cancer."
Anyhow I've had a crush on him ever since....
