Hi Girls!
I'd love to join your Thursday way in group. I haven't been able to make my weight watcher mtgs but maybe if I have to answer to you gals I can do it here! Can I join you?

Hi all,
Sherry, we'd love you to join us.
We have this "chatters" thread and the "weigh-in" thread, so, come post on both of them. How long have you been doing WW? I reached goal in '93. At the moment, I'm not within my goal range and am trying hard to get back.

Susan, you are wise not to return to school yet. Please give yourself some time to grieve and heal. It's sure good to have you back posting. How is the exercising going? Are you going back to Curves or maybe to WW?

Tammy, you didn't say how you made it through both those contests on Saturday. I hope you had on enough to stay warm.

Sis, where is your husband taking you this year for your anniversary--or is it a secret???

Maureen, how's it going today? Yuck about your home computer!!!

I am sooo proud of myself today because I'm actually drinking water and not diet colas. I'd thought about going without a D. Coke today. Then, I thought better--I don't want to traumatize my system tooo much.

Stay OP everyone. And, Sherry, once again----welcome to the group!

Good afternoon everyone

Well, day 4 of week one is half over and so far so good. Tina and Susan you ladies make me jealous - here I am in sunny downtown Edmonton and today we're at about 37 farenheit!!! You know I really don't mind winter, but not this bloody early. With all the money I'm saving from not smoking maybe next winter I'll go and visit you ladies.

Well, I hope everyone has a good on program day and talk to you tomorrow

Hi Ya'll,

Welcome to the group Sherry. We have a great group if I don't say so myself!

Maureen, BRRRRR!!!!!!!! that's just cold!

Tina, I've gone back to Curves and started kinda back to WW. I need to make it to a meeting this week. Pat doesn't think I'm ready to go back either plus I don't think I'm ready either.

Tammy, how are you? How is school?

Susan

Good afternoon all

Well just checking in - like I said earlier this week I will keep coming here and posting even if I don't have much to say. I really want to stick to program this time. So far so good. Day 5 without a chocolate bar!!

It's still cold here, but I guess I should expect this after all I do live in northern alberta

Any way I hope you all have a good day and I'll be back tomorrow

maureen

Happy Wednesday,
Maureen, it's so good to see you posting now. NO chocolate bar!!!!!
Boy, I'd love one of those right now. This year, I bought Halloween candy that I wouldn't touch. Larry took some to work with him for his office buddies. He's very proud that he hasn't succumb to temptation, either.

Is anyone going to a party this year? We never do. However, I'm helping decorate our church gym for a party for underpriviledged inner city kids. Decorating is always fun.

Susan, good luck at Curves.
Tammy, are you having a good week, so far?
Mimi, I've missed hearing from you.
Sis, are you drinking your water? I've done good for 2 whole days now!
Sherry, how are you doing?
Tina

Good afternoon

Checking in for today. It's noon here and so far so good. I will weigh in tomorrow & even though I'll be disapointed if I don't lose anything I know I stuck to program and I really do feel a lot better when I do.

I hope you're all doing okay and I'll be here every once in a while to catch up on posts

maureen

HI,

I went to WW today, only to leave in tears. The woman asked if I was still breast feeding and I said "no, my son past away this month" (I've been able to go free since I'm a life timer for 3 months once the doctor released me) She said says as I'm teary eyed "Do you have other children?" I say no. Then she says "Oh, I should have charged you since your not breastfeeding anymore." I tell her no it's for 3 months. She says "nope it's because your not breastfeeding." I give her one of the pre pay tickets (because now I'm just trying to get out of there without crying hard) She says "oh go on" She wanted to know if I was going to go to the meeting and I said "Not now" and she said "I think it would be good for you." I just left. I thought how insensitive can someone be!!! I went out to the car and had a good cry then went on down to Curves to exercise.


Hope everyone is having a good day.

Susan

Susan,
I am so sorry. It's so amazing how insensitive people can be. When you told her about Seamus, she should have been consoling you instead of asking you about other children. And, then to go on & on & on.
Again, I'm so sorry you had to endure that. It's a good thing I wasn't there.
Tina

good afternoon

Well I lost 1.8 lbs so at least I'm going in the right direction.

Susan, I'd report that person if I were you.

I hope you all have a great weekend & I'll be here monday

take care

maureen

Tina, at the band contests last week I was definitely prepared with the right clothing. I've learned over the years!!

Susan, I agree about you not going back to school yet. Give yourself some time. School for me is ok. I get so frustrated at times because the students just don't pay attention to what is going on. Haven't had a group like this in years. The boss is still a pain.

That WW person should be reported to someone. There is no way a person in that postion should act like that. She should have been there to console you in your grief. Let me know where she lives, and I'll get some friends to come and toilet paper her house.

I'm glad it's the weekend.

Hi girls!
Sorry I haven't been back since I posted I wanted to join your thread. I've ahd an aweful week tho. There's this mom at school that has decided she doesn't like me and sent me a horribly mean halloween card! On the outside it said " Halloween is just another excuse for eating candy" then on the inside it said"works for me happy halloween" She wrote under the "works for me part "But not for you!" and then wrote"hope this works" and put a roll of "over the hill thigh tuck tape" I was soooo....upset! I can't believe that a 44 yr. old woman could do such a thing. Then she was at the school for the halloween parties Friday and when she wasn't hanging around trying to intimidate me she walked by me in the hall and purposly brushed against my shoulder as she was passing me. I think she need more to do w/her time.

That's about it for me. The kiddies are trick our treating tonite. I'm handing out candy!

Happy Halloween!

Sherry,
That's a deranged woman that sent that card. Are your children in the same class? Have the children had fights? Boy, I'd try to stay away from her.

Tammy and Susan are teachers. Maybe they can give you some good advice.

Tina

Hi Ya'll,

I just got back from my brother's house. I went over on Friday. We didn't do a bunch. He is really worried about me and I think he just needed to see me. We cried a bunch. He was Seamus' Godfather. I knew from the very first day that he would be it. He is and was so proud of my precious son. It was great coming back home, I REALLY missed Pat and he missed me.

I was looking through the mail and found a sympathy card from the receptionists at WW. I guess she must of thought about what happened and sent it. Her sister is the other receptionist. I thought it was really nice of them to sent it.

Sherry, I would let the principal know ASAP whether you are a parent or the teacher. That is harassment and is not called for. I would make sure that you are never alone with that woman.

Tammy, Some years are worse than others. I know at the beginning of last year, the classes I thought were going to be the death of me ended up being my favorite classes. Take care of yourself!!!! I love the idea of toliet papering. Wouldn't we have a blast and be laughing the entire time?

Tina, Is it raining down there? They keep saying rain but nothing has happened yet. Any trick or treaters? We never have any.

Maureen, Way to go, Girl!!!! Keep up the good work.

Susan

Sherry, I agree with Tina and Susan. Stay away from that woman!! AND let the principal know what has happened. No excuse for that.

When do you want to go toilet papering? With Bob working at Wal Mart, I get a 10% discount so we could really stock up on it. I have a van so I could haul quite a bit to your house. Of course, it might take me a while to get there. Leave a light on for me.
