    Thanks for the welcome! I really enjoy the boards here!

    And yes, you can lose those 10 punds in 10 weeks! We all can...let's do it! Good Luck!

  • Advocare is not sold in stores, but it is worth searching for. I do not want to advertise for them, but it helps me. I passed by "WW" today and really wanted to go in, but my Chef was waiting for me to get back to the office. I seem to always be running for someone else!I told my husband if I could quit my job, I might have a little time for me while the kids were in school, but he didn't believe me! Had to try! I did find the journal area and started one. I would not be sure how to enter what I ate for lunch today. I have several hispanic ladies in my kitchen, and they cook lunch- so I am a bit unsure what it was. I know it was good, but that's about it.

    bye for now!

    I have plan to go weigh tomorrow and we will see....
  • I am up for a challenge. I Vow for 10 pounds. I am going down to San Diego for Easter so it would be wonderful to fit some old shorts again!!!
  • HEY!! You just bought a house! You're getting a holiday, too!?

    Hey! That's my birthday - what a nice present to myself. I'll take that challenge! I've been doing horribly all week, time to kick myself in the arse & get going!
  • What I would give for a holiday- we are thinking Quebec in May...


    OH! Weighed today - down 2 pounds!!!!

    Have a great weekend
  • Yip yip, Sarajane!! Congratulations!!
  • By Easter I hope to be a heck of a lot closer to 200 than I am now! My scale has been put in storage for this month. Last time I looked I was 211.5 - I want to be sneaking up (down) on 200 by Easter time. I also want my BGL readings in the 4-7 range.
  • I should be getting 4300 back from the tax man, 1000 of it goes for our trip. I have never had a real vacation that I paid for stuff instead of mouching. We are doing the zoo, lego land and seaworld. I will be stopping in Vegas to say hi to everyone before coming home. No credit cards is nice! I love only having utility bills in my mailbox. now if the scale could move down, we will be set.
    My last junk was Mcdonalds last night, today I get serious. I am 196 in my nightgown. It is too freaking cold to get naked for a weighin. I am going to do this. ~flower
  • Flower, you deserve a vacation! I'm very happy for you.

    Come on girls... let's get our fat asses in gear.
  • Well I had a terrible eating weekend! I ended up skipping meals and eating fast food on Sunday (McDonald's) which made me sick as a dog about 1/2 an hour after eating it!

    I vow to do better this week!

    I will weigh in tonight when I get home from the gym.
  • I will stop eating goldfish crackers just because they are out for my youngest DD! Why can't I just ignore them like I did before Christmas? From now on I am ignoring them! They are evil lil things.

    You're not kidding, Lidian. Those things are about the most addictive things ever, lol. I like to flip the salty side down on my tongue and suck it off before gobbling it down. I can't buy them, I'd eat the entire box in one sitting.
  • Oh Ladies!!!

    I did it- went to WW (as I see it here) and BOY was I surprised! The scales at the spa were not like the ones there! I 'bout cried. There I was happy because I lost 2 pounds only to find out that their scales say I weigh 12 pounds more.

    I hate to say it, but I plunged into a Spinach Calzone and a frosty- I have read the points book and mapped out the rest of the week, so I say this is my last splurge for a while. Tomorrow I will go to the spa and see what the scales say. I hope there is a difference and heaven forbid I gained weight over the weekend. I did not even have cheesecake!

    Truely a perfect end to my Monday! But- tomorrow is another day....

    Hope it's a good one for you all.
  • It is a conspiracy! Our scales inject fat cells into our bodies through our feet.
    I put mine away Feb 1 when I weighed 211.5.
    Since then I have been slightly low carbing, not having snacks AND this morning I am 206.5! I only got it out because of a challenge from the Journalling group. Back into storage it goes today.
    If you stand on foil wrap, I wonder if that would prevent the fat cell migration? Hmmmm!
