Hey Cysters!
 

Hey Cysters!

Well today was a BAD day. Just one of those days you want to stay in bed and not budge! lol. But I managed to crawl out. Then I went straight back into my bad habits and ordered a *Horror Film Music inserted here* Pizza. :p

Oh will the circle ever end? lol. But Alas! tomorrow is a brand new day! :D I think we all have our "days" and today was mine. That lil Junk Food Demon I've been trying to leave me alone arose today. :devil: BUT at least I didn't eat the entire pizza! I put the bugger away before it could cause anymore damage than it already did. :s:

KSC - Awwwwwww a puppy, what kind is he or she? what does he/she look like? name? Details! I need details! lmaoooooo. Okay so I'm a bit on the nosey side and I'm totally completely jealous because we want a puppy so badly but want to wait until we get a house.......:goodluck: with your ultrasound!

Hi Amanda! :wave: Congrats on the weightloss! :high: Thanks for the kind compliments. :o I enjoy coming here and chatting with ya'all and sharing my day, etc. I'm up for the challenge. Only thing is I don't have a scale! lol. But I suppose I could pick one up when I get paid! :chin: So yes I accept your challege! :sumo: And hey lets make it interesting. The loser, the one that doesn't quite make it as close to the 3 lb weight loss, will have to put the other's name under their signature saying that person rules! Whatcha think? lol.

Congrats, Donna on keeping on your walking! :cp:

:wave: to everyone else in Lurk mode, I hope your all doing well! :D

:grouphug: and :dust: to those who need it!

The puppy is a golden retriever named Jake. He is mad at me right now because I put a collar on him!

I had my ultrasound today and I have 4 good follicles! Yay, I finally caught a break! They are all between 1 and 1.2 cm in size. I have to go back on Sat. and see if they have grown to 1.4 and if so, I have to get an injection.

The exercise isn't going so well. I'm dead tired. The puppy is a lot of work!

Congrats on your follies!! We have a 5 year old Golden named Cinnamon, she is the best!! They are so smart and eager to learn. I took the lab puppy for a walk with me today, it was interesting as he is not as good on a leash as Cinnamon, but poor little guy, he tries, lol!!
hugs,
Donna

Awwwwwwww so when are we going to get to see a pic? :D CONGRATS on the follies! :goodluck: and I hope they grow! Lots of +++++++++++ thoughts! ;)

Dear friends,
I am writing just to say you all a quick good bye before leaving to Vietnam: we will be flying tomorrow morning and in two days we will be with our daughter (her name will be Anna). In these past days I was very bad with diet, and I didn't lost a gram...but I will be more strict when I will be back with the baby!
I will post some photos and tell you the whole story when I will be back, around july 14th; for now good luck to you all

:hug:

Alba, congrats on little Anna!! Can't wait to see some pics!!
Hugs,
Donna

My little egg grew! To a big 1.8 cm. So today I got an injection to help things along. I have to go back next Friday to check my progesterone level and then the following Friday for a pregnancy test. Hubby's happy...it's his turn to pitch in! Hahaha!!

We just got back from the demo derby, hubby got 4th in his heat, and then his rear end broke, so he's done for today. I am so hot and sunburned, and am just going to veg out tonite!!
Hugs,
Donna

Donna - What's a DEMO DERBY? sounds FUN. I too am a little sun scorched. We went out in the boat today. Go easy on the veging. You dont want to hate yourself in the morning.

KSC - My thoughts and prayers are with you. Prayerfully - next will go GREAT and the following week that test will be POSITIVE! We need to see the pup! I am trying to get a dog for the hubby - but we want a particular breed and they are hard to get. Good Luck girl. I know you have got to be excited and anxious.

ALBA - Anna is a beautiful name. I'm praying for a safe trip for you and your little girl. PLEASE - the second you get back after you kiss her face off, send us some pictures. Congrats again!!

DEB/Irish - you still hanging in there?

SHEL - HOW"S IT GOING ON THE CHALLENGE? That's all I am going to say.

Week one for me again trying MET has gone well. it was only a 1/3 of the dose. Monday I'll start 2/3. Let the good times roll!!

I hope you all are doing great! Talk with you soon.

Hi Ladies :wave:

Congrats to both Alba & KSC & my thoughts are with you both! :hug:

Donna, Very cool! My Uncle was big into Derbies and won a lot of trophies. Very fun to go and see. Ouchie, be careful with your sunburn!

Amanda - Day 1, I did go to the grocery this morning when I got off of work and tried to get healthy stuff, but it was tough to find things I can have and will actually eat. Today was a :crazy: day and we got stuck in traffic and it was :hot: and so today didn't start out too well. But there is always tomorrow. :shrug: Hows it going with you?

Take Care Everybody!

Amanda, a demo derby is where a bunch of cars get out in an arena, and smash into each other. It is loads of fun to watch my hubby destroy other peoples vehicles, lol!! I didn't eat anything yesterday until like 8 at nite, and I was so sick from being in the sun all day, that I threw it right back up, so I didn't try to eat anything else. I feel better today, and will go eat lunch in a little bit. Hope everyone is doing good.
KSC, have fun making that baby!! The babydance marathon begins at my house this week, too!!
Sassy, it was cool to hear that your uncle ran derbies too, aren't they fun!!
Hugs,
Donna

Alba::hat: YAY!! Have a wonderful trip and hug that beauty tight!

Donna: Sounds like you have been busy. ~~~~ Baby Dust to you this week~~~~

KSC: :cp: YAY!! for growing eggs! ~~~~ Baby Dust to you this week also~~~~

Amanda: Sounds like you have been busy. Good luck achieving :queen: status next week!

Shel: Hope that you are having a good week! Good luck achieving :queen: status next week!

Anyone I missed have a wonderful week.

---------------------------------------------------------------

I have been :stress: to the max and have not been very good about my eating. I worked on cleaning out someone elses closets on Friday. She is getting ready to move across country and just found out that she has breast cancer. :( So that plus some other crud made this a rough week. I am notorious about letting life get me off track and it did at the beginning of the week. By the end of the week I was making not so great choices but at least I was balancing them with better choices so while I might have had onion rings and pizza this week, I also had lots of fruits and veggies.

We leave for vacation on Tuesday and won't be back until the following Monday most likely. Maybe Sunday night. So have a wonderful week ya'll. I am going to shoot for just maintaining while I am gone. I will be adding to my exercise minutes though because I plan to walk at least 2 miles per day, possibly 4 miles if I can break away from my MIL. I know that she won't go with me because it is too far for her. Then Friday and Saturday we will be walking lots because we are going to the Mall of America and to Downtown Minneapolis.

Have a wonderful Healthy week ladies!

Hey Donna! Yes they are very fun indeed! Our whole family would go out to watch my uncle when he was in them. ***BABY DUST TO YOU & KSC*****

Irish -- Thanks for the support. So far, so good today. ;)
So sorry to hear about your friend. :hug: Have a Great time on your vacation and we'll talk to ya when you get back! Have Fun!

Amanda -- how are you doing? I haven't gotten a scale yet so I have no idea how much I started at. :( So we shall see! TTY Soon!

:wave: to everybody else out there in "lurk land" I hope you all are having a Great nigiht tonight and also have a Great Week this week! ;)

Ugh! I hate drs sometimes!

My dh had an SA in May, over a month ago actually and we finally got some results today but they didn't really give him any information except that it wasn't optimal and his dr wants him to follow up with the RE. The only thing they did tell him is that it could be due to his medicine that he has been on since he was 13. Nothing we can do about that...they don't think fertility is a valid reason to remove him from it since it is more important to be seizure free but I wish that they could have been a bit more clear than ooo well you are "sub fertile" and need to see the RE again.

YaY! I guess I should have made him wait until after our vacation to find out. Especially since the RE's office told us that his test was covered and then his dr's nurse used the wrong code so the test got denied. Now, we don't know if we will have any coverage at all and they are trying to get it straightened out.

:stress: BLAH!!!

Deb

oyah and someone else I know just announced today that they are pregnant again. Yes, it must be something in the water that I don't get to drink.

Irish, I know the feeling about the water, the nursing home where DH works as maintenance supervisor, like 6 girls were pregnant, one of them being my SIL!! She had her baby today, a little boy, 6 pounds, 6 oz, 19 inches long, Jesse Rhoades. Rhoades is a funky middle name, but it was his daddy's grandpa's middle name. He was Frank Breech, which they didn't find out until today after her water broke and she was in the hospital, they had to do a C-section. Her loser ex-husband to be came and didn't even go back with her, he said he couldn't take it, and my MIL didn't get there in time, so his mom got to go. But anyway, he is perfect and tiny and healthy and I love him!! I held him forever and can't wait until tomorrow to go back and do it again, lol. Hopefully my turn will be next.
My eating was bad today, we ran to McDonald's while she was in recovery, and ate, but that's all I ate today, so maybe it won't hurt that much.
Hugs,
Donna
