Thanks you guys for all your advice. I do feel better today, but am still sad on and off. I guess I should not be so upset. you all are alot further than I am but regradless we all can not just run over to those peoples homes at anytime. Anyway Angie you are right too, I need to stay focused, and not let my feeling bring me down all together.Marcie I may take you up on that sometimes it is nice to know you can talk to someone in the same boat.

Marcie congrats on onederland!!!! It's the best feeling. Your doing great. Your picture is beautiful. Dj's mommy and angel eyes, keep up the great work we can do this. Angie congrats on the new size!!! Well I feel like I did good yesterday. All day I only ate 0 point veggies so I could splurge last night. I had a few bud lights and from the buffett I ate some veggies off the veggie tray, boiled shrimp, grilled grouper, and 1/2 a crab cake. And I didnt clear my plate. So hoping that will make up for Friday.

My other 1/2 wants BBQ'd Ribs & Potato Salad today for dinner. Maybe I will just have a BBQ'd Chicken Brest and Salad. I dont know what im going to do to stay good with him around.... I have my close Friend's Birthday lunch on Monday. We are going to this great place on the beach. They have this Shrimp Salad with a coconut dressing it is so yummy. I dont know how many points it is though.

Anna,
how did you do with your food at the xmas party last night. that was good the first one you only had one plate one cookie is a lot better than what you could of had. you are doihng a good job the holidays area very very hard time to not induldge in all those foods we love but, you know its better to induldge yourself every once in a while otherwise i think we set ourselves up for failing and binging you are doing a great job. today is a new day . you can do this girl. I believe in you.

Michelle that is a great attitude focus on what you can control your physical self i'm a very very emotional person to where my heart on my sleeve always have. i hope things at work get better. great job getting in two workouts.

Morning all!! The days already drizzly and grey but nothings gonna rain on my parade!!!.....I lost another 2.5 pounds!!! That puts me at 25 lbs lost!!! WHOOO WEEEEEE!!!!! The difference is incredible, using that fitday site. I must have barely been eating 1000-1100 calories before and not realized and doing the starvation mode. I'm eating soooo much more and quite a good variety of whole grains, fruit and lean meat. I think the added protein (ie..powder) has also helped. THANKS for all the support and motivation!!!! Last night while I was making dinner, I was trying to think of the last time I even had potatoes. Couldn't remember. I'm sure thats also helped. Another added bonus are my workouts.....I'm loving the treadmill these days. Its like a puzzle with all the pieces coming together to complete the picture. FINALLY ITS CLICKING and I'M NOT MISSING OUT ON ANYTHING!!!

Marcie, Angel-eyes, Angie...EVERYONE! You're all doing terriffic! Keep up the great work. We've all come this far, there's no way we're turning back now! We're on our way to healthier people. YAY!
Well, I'm back on track. I've lost 5 pounds, and closer to my Christmas goal, and ultimately my big goal, so I'm happy! I want nothing more to get out of the 150s and get in the 140s. I can't wait.
Take care, ladies! Have a good Monday!
Molly

[huntersmommy]

Seems like I missed a few posts

Angel Eyes -- thanks for the breakfast tips. I bought the waffles and will try the fruit and cottage cheese! It just frustrates me how expensive food is

Michelle -- HB stands for Honey Bunny. I guess I should explain. DH does not apply to me, since I don't have a husband and DB doesn't either, since I am not with a guy. So rather than type my girlfriend or fiance each time, I dubbed her HB. Sorry -- forgot I never explained that.

Marcie -- CONGRATS!!!

I had a good weekend and stayed OP mostly. Walked a few miles too!!! Now, no gym tonight but tomorrow for sure. HB and I go food shopping tonight to put my new plan in effect!!! I am going to menuize our week (for me, B L and D. Dinners for just HB) and buy only those foods needed to make those meals, as well as some snacks. Wish me luck!
