Hi,
Well, things are going much better now with ebay. I have won 4 coats and I wanted them all, so that is the good part. 2 for me 2 for dd#1, but I still have bids in on 3 more coats. Hopefully, I can get one for dd#2 and then, I'll just hang up my ebay bidding sign for a long time. The 2 I have for myself so far is one dress coat and one everyday coat. They both originally cost around $150 each and I got them for 56 combined, not too bad.
PLease, please try this, it is soo good
Lemon Pepper Cauliflower
Steam one head of cauliflower until tender.
In a small saucepan combine 2 tbs cream, 2 tbs butter, 3 tsp lemon juice, 1/2 tsp lemon pepper, 1 tbs parsley. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Place cauliflower in a serving bowl and pour sauce over. Mix gently or mix a lot and it will be like mashed potatoes
Add salt to taste.
I've done really bad with my eating the last two days and yesterday I even had a bowl of ice cream. So, my weight is up from last week. Still, I'm at the weight that I wanted to be which is 207.8. I wanted to get to 207 by the end of the month of Oct. I started at 216.6. Next month, I'm going for 197. I don't know if I can do that, it's kind of wierd, almost like it's impossible. Still, that's my next month goal. I'm trying to lose 2 lbs a week (one is acceptable) and my ultimate goal is to be at 157 by the end of March. That really seems like a stretch, but I've got my mind made up. The only thing that will stop me (besides donuts and ice cream
is if I start to look too thin.

at 203, wow. I was thinking sometimes when you eat lots of carbs when you haven't for a while your body will actually let go of some weight. Something about your brain getting some seritonin that it needs. That's why Dr. Schwarzbein says to eat 1/2 a potato a week. (Silliest thing I've ever heard. If I could eat just 1/2 of anything, I wouldn't be in this shape). Anyway, that was her idea.
My gazelle squeeks and so does DD's and she is only 150 lbs. I've read on other boards that many people say they squeek.
I have my Christmas shopping done. And the shopping for their birthdays which are Dec 29th and Jan 27. I tried to keep it simple this year, the one big ticket item being the purses. For their birthdays, I bought them one really nice thing and then a fragrance set that they have been wanting.
Guess I'll close this chapter of the novel that I seem to be writing here
Have a good day, Good luck with Davids visit Anne, Nikki
