Heather pp: Is been a long time that we don't chat. Just want to say
Milca- Good luck with the house hunting!! How exciting.
I probably have 12 boxes of tea in the cupboard right now, but don't let Kristi fool you. She has 3 times that many teas in her cupboard!!! I think that I may be getting old. I worked hard in the yard yesterday, and I took care of 13 kids. Last night I was so worn out I went to bed at 8:30. I watched TV with DH for a while, but it didn't take long for me to be sound asleep. Who goes to bed at 8:30? It is a good, skinny day. I love these kinds of days where I am feeling skinny. I also loved being able to weed the flower beds yesterday with no trouble bending over. Lets have a great, skinny, POP day everyone!!!
My favorite tea is blueberry by celestial seasonings. Put a little creamer and sweetener and you are eating blueberry pie. I need to buy some raspberry and start drinking for my uterine health...supposed to strengthen your uterus, which I need after a c-section.
Kristi- So the tea addiction runs in families, eh? Sounds familiar....Please tell me you don't drink your tea alone...
Sherry- Let me know how the spreadsheet is helping you!
I had enough of No BM whatsoever! I took laxatives before going to bed last night! I only do these in extreme cases but i couldnt help it! At work i am having a very chaotic day! I am helping the boss with a huge project that has to be done (mind you, 50 times) by tomorrow! He is freaking out! I will WI today and let you guyz know if i am back at 181 or not! My scale said so but CODs scale doesnt always agrees with mine!
Hi ALL!!! I am back and glad to get caught up. I hate to sound like a broken record but I don't want to WI today--my home scale is the same 165.5--UGH--I know you are sick of my whining but geez.... I know I wasn't good this weekend--not perfect but not gorging either. We ate Mexican food twice (my fave) (even 1 margarita--no salt) and even though I know I didn't eat nearly what I used to it sure caught me yesterday and I was sicker than a dog! I am seriously going to check into the colonix--I feel terrible. I guess that's what I get and I should be happy to stay the same but I'm not--I've been the same for close to a month now. DH LOVED the races and we now have a tire from Eliot Sadler's car in our garage--when his shop is finished guess where it's going!
So glad everyone is doing well--lots of CONGRATULATIONS to those losing--or maintaining or even getting yourself back on track--all difficult tasks and we should be commended--I keep telling myself it will eventually pay off for me. Here comes the whine again.
Love all the "I'm getting too old stories" I'm with you but must say lots of things are getting easier.
Milca--good luck house hunting--how exciting.
So glad to see the new gals--you have found the place to be. I will get more personal later--off to the other threads to see what I missed--I missed visiting will all of you. Later gators!
Lea Ann - OK, we have way too much in common. We have 4 tires IN our house (our basement is NASCAR themed). 1 is from Jeff Gordon's car with a certificate of authenticity - it is hanging on the wall and will eventually become a part of the dart board. The other 3 are from Hendrick (don't know which cars) and are hanging from our ceiling as the light over the pool table! All 4 of the tires have rims, so look really cool. This trip we are going to be getting 3 or 4 more to make tables. It sounds pretty corny, but so far they look really great - nothing redneck!
DH and I had a number of great talks last night about my mood swings and weight loss. He asked me not to give up even though things are moving so slowly and I am getting frustrated. I love LAWL and hate it all at the same time. I had Minute rice for dinner yesterday with chicken breast and asparagus and felt guilty because I was eating white rice (which I have been told is in the book, but I shouldn't be eating it). This weekend dinner is ham and scalloped potatoes - neither of these items are on plan, so I feel like I am going to fail before I even get started. With my perfectionism, this causes me grief. I also think that when I am in NC, there is no way I can follow plan as written. With eating out for every meal for 15 days it is going to be extremely difficult. As it sounds like the maintenance part of the program is much more lenient, I am going to ask my COD for that book before leaving on vacation - I will be OK with just maintaining given the challenges I will face.
I have been in your shoes in a sense...we were away from our home for 2 weeks at Thanksgiving. i played a little fast and loose with my portions just because I didn't have that many options, but I brought my own fruit and bars and tried to count stuff the best I could even if it wasn't technically on plan (biscuit=starch, fat...etc). I ended up only gaining a pound, but after I did TO when I returned to get rid of all the sodium, I ended up losing a lb or so. You can do it!
Suzanne--can my DH come live with you?? It's perfect for a gameroom and doesn't sound redneck at all--remember I am from Texas!!
I swear we are sisters--we seem to share the same issues and I ge tthe same lectures from DH--remember the goldfish rescue? I am so easily frustrated, too but have to stay with it. I know it will be hard while on vacation for so long just remember it's choices and if you blow a meal just move on and try to be good for the next. I haven't found a restuarant yet that doesn't have a pretty decent salad (grilled chicken caesar is my favorite). I would consider maintaining a success while on vacation. You will do great.
Julia--I love california rolls--I have eaten them on plan but just guessed the count. Might be part of my problem--all the guesstimating! I don't think there is enough protein or veggies (at least in ours) to count much--I mostly think about the rice. Sorry--no help, really.
