Good Morning
4 points again!
Here's what happened: So last night I was doing my usual wednesday dinner thing where I usually pig out and I saw that there wasn't exactly the healthiest meal provided, nothing fried or anything...just not the best. BUT I put food on my plate, I ate it, and I did NOT go back for seconds and thirds as is my custom for those nights. So I consider that a victory! and therefore still claim all the points.

Its been sunny here all week but I dare not say "Spring is here" or it will grey over and start to drizzle and I'm not ready to give up this weather yet! there are FLOWERS!!!! I heard crickets the other night...and birds yesterday morning! YAY

Have a good day one and all, I'll be back this evening.

EVERYONE IS DOING FABULOUS! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK. POINTS:

Just made the pedicure appts for my niece, my sister and myself in Vegas. It should be interesting as neither my niece nor I have ever had one! I am looking forward to it though as something I have never tried.

Went back to the eye doctor and everything is hunky dorey. On the other side of the coin, besides our checkcard, we have ONE and only ONE credit card and the company keeps screwing everything up. Now they just issued an over the limit fee when we aren't over the limit. In fact, we rarely use the darn thing because the interest rate is high. As good customers, we were supposed to get a $100 bonus added to our credit card back in January (that is besides our credit line increase) and they never did it. On top of that, the morons called here while I was gone and I guarantee it was because of the overlimit fee. The card is in Jack's name so they won't talk to me, but I am about ready to blow my stack, cut up the darn thing and tell them to shove it where the sun don't shine! I better get this taken care of before it becomes more of a mess.

For two days straight my poor kitty has gotten locked up somewhere. Day before yesterday he was in my office and I shut him in here for about 8 hours. He was sitting in my chair when I came in and then last night I heard a thump and a meow and he was locked in my closet! SOOOOOO, I went and bought him the cutest little red collar with little gray kitty paws on it and a nice red BELL! He was so funny when I finally was able to get it on him. He would shake his head to try and get the collar off making the bell ring and then he would look all over for where the sound was coming from. BUT.... we now know where he is all the time! Right now he is sitting in my window sill talking to the birds. My dd says, "yeah, he is talking all right, something like: Hi guys, if I could catch you I would eat you or bring you into the house in my mouth to show my owner!"

I met a new friend online that lives only a couple hours from me. We are planning on getting together at the casinos probably in June. It is so cool when I meet friends here or by way of my website. You ladies are my dearest sweetest friends of all!

Everyone have a great night.

FRIDAY: Today is Fabulous Lbs Down Friday! Did you lose this week?

Check in later ladies

Faye

Morning All

I was only down 1.5 pounds this week...it is better than nothing but I am used to more...I guess things are slowing down, but coming up real soon is TOM so it may be that....I hear normal safe weight loss is 1-2 pounds weekly....so I should be happy about the 1.5 pounds, so I am !!!

I had another 4 point day yesterday !!! Exercise and all .... and I was frozen solid the whole way...we ended up not walking as much as normal because it was like 39 degrees, brrrrrr ...

I am excited today because my little sister ( she is 19, I am 30 ) is coming to spend the evening with me and we are going to go out and eat ( something low fat for me of course ) and then do a little shopping. It is hard to get some time with her between college and boyfriend, ya know how that goes when you are that young...

Well I will check in later to see all of your pounds down!!!!!

Hello...drumroll please...I am down...5.5 pounds. Can you believe it? I can harldy.
And its another 4 points for yesterday...that makes a solid week of 'em! I'm on fire!

Carri - have fun with your sister. I'm 20 and one of my older sisters is 32, almost the same age difference, but she is the closest person to me in the world!

SUSAN - CONGRATS on the "5.5" pounds !!!!!!
Great Job!!!!

Carri: Have a grand time with your sister! I sure do miss mine and can't wait to see her in 3 more weeks. I haven't seen her in almost 2 years and we are really really close. We used to work at the same law firm, have lunch together everyday, and every Friday night the four of us had dinner together and or went to high school football games. Sure do miss that a bunch!

Well, got the nasty shopping all done and put away for another couple of weeks. As usual, I had to go to three stores to get everything, but it is all done now so I can quit griping and Jack didn't have to go with me. He hates to grocery shop but always goes with me without being asked.

I think I am going to nap for about an hour. It is tom and I have this whole thing that goes on. I don't take my progesterone for that week so I start having monsterous menopausal symptoms then add cramps in and a general feeling of ICK! I did go to the gym this morning and did a hard workout on the treadmill, cramps or not and walked all over the stores than dragged everything in and put it all away so I got lots and lots of exercise! You know I am feeling icky when I don't go and get my nails done!

You ladies have a great afternoon. I wonder what happened to ANNA? Maybe I can go back and find a post and get ahold of her.

Faye

Hi Ladies

Susan WTG! 5.5lbs thats fantastic you too Carri, Well Done

You can add me in with the losers Faye with a 4lbs loss this week

Only a 2pt day for me yesterday would have been 4 but we had company and so i had a few drinks Walked another 3mls this morning

Cat: you get and great job on the loss

Total for those reporting in 11 lbs this week. SPECTACULAR ! I don't weigh until Monday and who knows with TOM, I could be ballooned! I have been trying to stay away the scales so I don't become obsessed!

Everyone have a nice evening and I will check with you tomorrow. Have a funny those STUPID true Sunny Thoughts Saturday story to tell you that Jack told me last night so look forward to that!

Faye

SATURDAY: Today is Sunny Thoughts Saturday. Do you have anything to share to make us smile?


**Here you go: Somewhere in the Atlanta area just a few days ago, a woman walked into Walmart, loaded her cart with approximately $1700 worth of things and went to check out. She gave the cashier a Walmart gift card, but when rung up, it had $3.50 on it. The cashier told her there was not enough on it to pay for the goods so she pulled a bill out of her purse and handed it over. It was a 1 million dollar bill with the Statue of Liberty where a president's face would be. The police were called when she made a fuss and wouldn't pay correctly and it was found that she had 2 more of the bills in her purse. The moral is: Make sure if you are going to pay with a gift card, it has enough on it, make sure if you are going to pay with phony money that the government MAKES that denomination and lastly Make sure the whole store has enough money to give you back your change! From the Truth is Stranger than Fiction Collection or the DUHHHHHHHHHHHH! Files

Hi Guys!

WELL DONE CARRI AND SUSAN FOR YOUR WEIGHT LOSSES!!!

Love Amanda xx

Good Morning!
Its my TOM too, I find it quite funny that a lot of us have it at the same time.
My Sunny Thought is that I got to go to the beach last night! A group of us planned it all out and we drove out there (about an hour), ate sea food, and had a fire on the beach. We roated marshmallows (wich sadly turned out to be stale...but ok if you roasted long enough) and ate smores, and were out there really late. It was great. It was perfectly clear and the stars were fantastic.
Obviously I didn't get food points yesterday. I let pretty loose the 2nd half of the day so only 2 points for me.
oooo another sunny thought. CLASSES ARE OVER FOR THE TERM! I still have finals...but still.

Great job on the 4 points Amanda

Cat - Awesome work on the 4 pounds!
