Hi Everyone
Not much going on here.

The sun was shining today. Was a nice day. Compared to yesterday.
SLOANIE Congrats on the loss. Enjoy your break.
BEACH BUM Congrats on maintaining. That is wonderful. If you are like me though. You want to see the numbers coming down. Sorry you had to quit your WW. But remember. Through this time with hubby. You have to take some time for yourself. I know from experience. You both are in my prayers.
VICKIE Where are you. Hope everything is ok.
ONTARGET how are you doing.
TECHALUM How's the headache. Glad you are getting some rest. Glad hubby is starting to feel better.
TEJAS how you doin.

To everyone else I am thinking of you.
Well I am going to get off here for now.

Just wanted to check in before I go home. It's funny how good it makes me feel to be reading your posts. I can't wait to check back in on Tuesday.

Tech-I'm proud of your work on the socks. Hang in there, you will love them when you are done. My sweater is coming along. I'll let you know how it's going.

Have a great weekend y'all!

Hi chickies! I wi tonight and my weight is exactly what I changed my ticker too!! Exactly. That was purely a guess, close to what my scale said. So, I have my work cut out for me. But I'm pretty confident that I'm back on track. I should be losing next week!!! I hope so. I will be very good!!

Hi Everyone
Not much happening here.
I did make some potato soup today. I know I have to count the points. You can have a cup for 1 point. And that will be my potato for the day.
TWESTRA Glad your scales are close to the WW scales. Mine are never right. I think I have loss on mine. And theirs I gain. So I dont trust my scales. Maybe I need to ask Santa for a set of WW scales.
Well I will get off here for now.
Just wanted to check in.
Thinking of everyone.
Have a wonderful day.

Hi Ladies

First time on my own,and so far doing great eating wise. I'm going low on carbs just veggies,fruit and starchy veggies and see what happens.I not going to touch the grain carb for s while and see if the numbers will come down. My sister is pre-diabetic and I think I heading there also. Am I using to much insulin when eating the grains. Or maybe I'm allergic to whole wheat & grains. Have an appointment with my doctor for a cholesterol blood test at that time I'm going tom ask him to check my glucose tolerance.

Went to the Orthopedic doctor yesterday and I had rotary cuff tendentious he gave me a cortisone shot and if that doesn't work I have to go for a MRI next month.

So theres a lot happening in Leo & my life. My friend & I were going to see Beverly Hills Chihuahua today but she has an insurance adjusted coming to the house and I not feeling well with my shoulder,so we decided to go some time next week.

SLOAN-So sorry about your DH with this rotary cuff tears,hope the surgery come out fine. Oh Gee!! that some pain to be in.My sister has a torn rotary cuff ,but she still hasn't called the doctor for the surgery. Don't know what she waiting for.Hope your DH heals fast. Crossing my figures that your 3 lbs are going to gone soon.

COCO-I felt bad losing all the friends that I made there but after being on WW for 6 months and not see any results on both programs.Its nonsense to continue when its so expensive. I know what I have to do,and you guys can be my meeting room.

TRACIE-Heres to a good W-I next week.I'll be wishing that for me also.


Have a great afternoon

Hugs

Hi
Just thought I would get on here for a few.
Well I guess I wont be making the potato soup again.
I got out of control on it. I ended up eating 3 cups of it.
So guess I will have nothing but veggies and fruit tomorrow.
BEACH BUM hope the shoulder is feeling better.
Well I am going to get off here.
Go and make me some tea.
Hope everyone has a wonderful evening.

Rhonda and Doyle are here. We're having a wonderful visit. It's so good to see them. Life is good.

Congratulations, Paula and Coco. I am happy for you both. Those are good losses.

Puffin. You're going to have a fun ride doing Core. Enjoy your weightloss journey.

Maryann, I think you'll do well on your own. You know what to do. Just keep coming here for support--and keep journaling.

Hi, Sloan. Good to see you here.

Good Morning Ladies

Nothing going on today except for me getting my hair cut. Going to exercise indoors again as the winds are strong by the beach,I guess it that time of the year.Some how I'm getting every tired and sleep longer in the morning then I do in the summer time.


COCO-My shoulder is getting better in fact i don't feel the pain anymore now that I had the cortisone shot. Glad that I caught it on time. Yes,I'm thinking about soup myself, for supper today. I going to have chicken stir-fry for dinner at noon. NO RICE.

SANDRA-Thanks for letting me hang around, but than again I quit the meeting not the core plan.Whats the sense to go to meeting when the leader doesn't know anything about the Core Plan I think I know the plan better than she does. I journal and I have the food list of allowed a& npt allowed so I should do ok with it. The only problem is PORTION CONTROL. Going to keep some of the Froz entree plates and use that for measuring my portions.

Have a great morning, will come back later and see what gals are up to.

Hugs

Morning All,

Well, I fell off the wagon and got run over . Wed I was still feeling ichy so we ordered a pizza, not too bad but all the wine I drank was. Then Thursday dh had a temp so we had to go back to the ER. He had an pocket of fluid near the surgery area in his pelvis. So they drained it. We were there Thur evening and all day yesterday. I did not make good choices food wise, and missed WW

Today I plan to get back on track. I'm headed up to make venison stew for dinner (we've been eating around 3 for our big meal it seems to work) before I leave for knitting class. Then hopefully I can get the work done outside today. I want to set up the tent and wash the floor then pack up all the camping gear and put it away. Also I want to take out the garden and mow the grass. Luckily my folks are going to come over and help so we should be able to get it all done.

Weather's supposed to be beautiful maybe I can get in a bike ride tomorrow if we get everything done today.

Paula, Coco, Sloan - Congrats on the losses.

Maryanne - Good luck on your own. I've tried that and it doesn't seem to work for me. But I know others who can do it that way.

Sorry I can't respond to all, I've gotta get moving. Have a great day everyone.

Maryann, I knew what you meant. Sorry if I was unclear. When I was talking about your coming here for support, I just meant that 3FC could be your "meeting." We're all here for you all the time. Now I need to ask, can I stay here? I'm not op at all this week. I don't have a clue what's wrong with me unless I have been excited about Rhonda and Doyle's coming, my audtioning, and the homecoming festivities. I've been eating like I was celebrating. Guess I am celebrating. We have been enjoying Rhonda and Doyle's being here so much. I'll be glad when they move back to Texas and don't just come here for short visits.

Donna, . Now will you post me a ? I need one, too. I got run over by that wagon several times this week.

I got a part in the play. I'm Helen Armstrong, a largish 50ish woman who always directs the Christmas pagent. This year, however, I tripped on a long telephone cord and broke my leg so another lady will direct MY play. (Do you think I am type cast?) (I have even directed this play 2 times in the past.) I promised the "real" director I would stay out of character except when I'm onstage.

Hi everyone! I've been hanging in there and pretty much staying op. I did have some cocktails on friday but I also had wpa's to cover them. I have been eating a lot of core chili though as I have it made and it's so easy to reheat a bowl for lunch. It's made with extra lean ground beef(so I only eat it once a day), and I'm hoping that eating beef pretty much everyday won't hurt my weight loss. Next time I think I'll make it with ground turkey. At least I won't be eating beef so often. I want to make some vegetable beef barley soup and vegetable chicken barley soup, but just haven't had the time. I have been so busy.

BB, Good luck on going it alone. You really aren't alone, because we are all here for you.

Sandra, congratulations on your part in the play. That would be so much fun!! Tell Rhonda I said hi!

Donna, we all fall off at one time or another. Mine just went on for weeks!

Coco, my scale is very close to ww scales so I always know if I am going to have a gain or loss. I'm never exactly sure how much, but I usually know if it's a gain or a loss.

Sloanie, hope your dh is feeling better.

Hi Ladies

So far so Good,with the program,but its the night time watching tv that still the problem with mindless eating. I try to stock the frig with veggies & fruit but I always wind up with mixed nuts, as I need something salty.. I can't see why Core doesn't allow them as some of them are healthy.I know I could use my points, to stop that craving.


DONNA -Oh My,I love pizza also but the wine I could do without.Sorry that your night out turned into returning to the ER. Hope your DH is doing fine after the liguid was removed. Thats a scary ordeal.Just do as best you can with the eat wise you have so much on your plate right now. Once this part of your life is over you can go back to OP.
Leos goes for his cat scan on Tues and if the cancer is gone We will be his last treatment. Crossing:crossed my fingers and saying lots of prayers that this is so.


SANDRA-OH of course I understood you, I was just being polite.I didn't leave the core plan just the meeting room.Some times the change of seasons make us look for comfort foods,at least that happens to me. It also could be the excitement of having RHONDA and her DH visiting. Sending your some so all goes well.


TRACIE-I love home made beef & chicken veggie barley soups. Leo doesn't like barley,so I leave it out for him and than I add the barley for myself. Don't know if it effects you,but eating to much beef always put my weight up.But than again Leo like ground beef and I like ground turkey. What can I say hes a meat & potato man. Thanks thats what I thought,I think I can do this WOE by myself,don't need a meeting room for that, but I still miss the friendships that I made in the 6 months.



Have a great evening


Hugs

Maryann, thank you for the . I certainly need a truck load.

Rhonda and I had a final visit yesterday afternoon. They left for Toronto today. I enjoyed her and Doyle's being here so much. Life is good.
