I got my walk in, but did the short route instead of to the lighthouse. I was on a Tylenol Cold Medicine high and thought taking it easy would be smart. I take Junior to the boat launch and it's about an hour walk. He can get to the water easy there and we dont have to climb down rocks for his drink. He's become such a good boy to walk.

Bob: I hope you're feeling better after a long nap!

Toni: What exciting news with a baby on the way! I hope you find your kitty soon! Ours is an indoor kitty, which I"m glad of since we have coyotes and BIG owls that would gladly have our cat for a snack.

Solly: You know what they say...no pain, no gain!!

Thin: Here's hoping they find something to help Rachel. How frustrating it must be for you both!!

Monet: I'm SURE your bathroom will be worthy of a Sherwin Williams ad when you're done.

Talitha: YOu are doing FABULOUS!! I hope you find the blanket I sent you. Did you ever call the post office?

Okay...off to drum up something or other for dinner. Talk to you guys later!!

Good afternoon,

Boy...I have had a busy week so far, dentist, Jess's field trip, WalMart, grocery etc but I am glad to have some time to just sit around the house. My meals are not balance today but dinner should be better.

Breakfast : 1 ww waffle and soy milk.

Lunch : 1 piece of quiche lorraine, crust was not legal. (a quick bite)

Snack : 1 more piece of quiche since I was starving.

Dinner : Pasta pustanesca, baked salmon and mixed green salad.

Some replies :

MONET : Hello there, glad you are back from vacation. Sorry your knees are bothering you...take it easy.

BOB : It's about time your boss realized your hardwork

GATOR : Sorry about your pipes problem. Hope they fix it right one time and do it as quick as possible. {{{hugs}}}

TECH : Are you feeling better? Dh uses Zicam too but hadn't hear much about the effect on him. Your turkey sausage sauce sounds yummy..make my tummy rumbly...lol.

THIN : How did Rachael Nutcracker audition go?

SOLLY : We are having some chilly mornings here as well...I love it!!

TONI : Glad you and dh is safe despite the storm. I am sorry about your cat, hope he/she is safe though.

TALITHA : WTG on your exercises. I wish I can say the same for me. Don't you love losing inches?

That's all for now. Time to wake Chris up from his nap, or else, we will be sleeping late tonight.

Good day everyone!

Julia

Hi all,
Sorry its took me so long to get back on. Last week was a very bad week here. The girls had a virus all week and then my step-Grandfathers passing was even more stressing. My eating has been naughty...I have had a chocolate craving like you wouldn't believe. Now I've eaten all the chocolate in the house and am not going to get anymore. Ive been legal with my eating today just to much bread. A bagel this morning then 2 pieces of bread on a sandwich and the spagetti and 2 pieces of wheat french bread. 7 pieces and I should have only 3 eaten 2. I am going to do better tomorrow. Hope everyones doing well this week I will be checking in again. Take care everyone.

Hey everyone!

Just a flyby - I've got schoolwork to do. I've got to go back and redo lesson plans from the beginning of the year because the state and feds are coming into the schools for some monitoring and I had been using my plans from last year. Well, I need to get it all updated - I know I'm going to do all that work for nothing! But, better safe than sorry!

I also have another rant but I don't have time to post it now - I'll have to fill y'all in about my "red a$$" another day! I also want opinions about what I should do.....

Well, I have been reading just not posting - I just wanted to say hello!

Missy

Ummm...I'm hesitant to be ecstatic, because the glass cover over the numbers on my scale broke some time ago, so my scale could be wrong...but it registered at 150!! this morning. I'll go try on some smallish jeans in a little bit and see if they're loose and then I'll consider a three pound loss from my all-time low. I'll let you know. I've been 95% legal all this week and I've walked twice. I can't see why that would be so great because I've done that before and not lost, so we'll see. But I'm keeping my fingers crossed!!

wait a minute...if I'm at 150, then that would be a SIX pound loss? I have to go look again. My scale must be not working right without the glass thing on it.

Got my walk in, had some Fiber One cereal for breakfast...about to hop in the shower. Then we take off (IF I can get them up and moving...) to visit Justin's kin folks up north in the mountains. We will leave tonight to drive halfway to the funeral.

I may check in before we leave....

TECH: A six pound loss would be awesome! BUT, if it IS a six pound loss, I would suggest you think through WHY. Unexplained weight loss can be many things. I had that, was ecstatic, then found out it is a symptom of diabetes! And sure enough, I gained it back once I got my blood sugar back under control. Now I am having to work as hard as ever to lose. Life just isn't fair!

Morning. Just a quickie. My lady is here doing my house. Sure does need it. The weather has turned cool and we have the heater going this morning. My eating has been awful the past couple of days and I haven't been walking. So I'm struggling.

Monet- So sorry about the death in your family. Be safe on your trip.

Tech- Oh my gosh I hope that 150 is real that would be so great! Keeping my fingers crossed for you!

Missy- Hope all goes well at school. Sounds like a pain in the butt to me...

Thunderwoman- Boy must be the seasons changeing, I'm craving chocolate too. And even though I've eaten legal chocolate I've had to much. I'll be glad when its out of the house.

Julia- Its so good to see you posting. Sounds like you're a busy bee!

Bob- I hope you get some rest....

Off I go now. Have a good day...

Just finished my lunch...more WW spaghetti with leftovers from the other night. I just weighed myself and the scale says 155...which, if my scale was being honest with the whole 150 thing this morning, that would be about right after exercising and eating lunch. I'm always way less poundage first thing in the morning.

I have to dry my hair and get to the library for the knitting club. They told me about this last summer and I"ve been waiting for everyone to be out of the house so I could go. It starts at 1 and I have to dry my hair first and gather all my things. I started trying to knit this weekend...got about four rows in...so I'll ask the experts how I'm doing and some questions I have.

I went for my walk to the lighthouse, but made it about 3/4 of the way and came home because it was raining. NO blisters this time!

Back atcha later!!

It's almost time to go home and I am just getting on here. It has been so busy here. I hardly have time to eat.

Got in about 45 minutes of gym time last night. Tonight we should go too unless DH just wants to walk our 3 miles. I think it is good to mix it up a little.

Sorry for such short replies.

BOB, hope you get some rest tonight.

Tech, sure hope that new low is right. How exciting. Good job on your walking. Glad you didn't get blisters.

Julia, enjoy your free time.

thunder, sure hope you don't catch that virus. Did you have more than 1 step GF pass away? My condolences.

Missy, can't wait to find out what this is about.

Monet, sorry about Tom's uncle. It seems we are getting to that age when that starts happening so much. It seems we are at the funeral home a couple times a monthly lately. Have a safe trip.

Toni, don't catch that cold. Drink lots of OJ or take extra vitamin C. I bought some raspberry vinegarette salad dressing (fat free) from a restuarant by us. I fell in love with it. 2 T are only 1 WW point. So whenever we go out, I measure 2T in a small container and stick it in my purse. We are going to be gone next weekend, so I will be taking a lot with me. I have a container I keep at work also. Get back on that , you were doing so good.

Have a great evening.
