Vickie, my patience gave out. I have had a food-filled weekend. So far, I'm not upset. I've enjoyed every bite. The fish fry just started it. Today we went to Pappadeaux's Seafood Restaurant after we finished competing. We even shared a dessert. Guess this was a side trip on my weightloss journey. I will get back on the road tomorrow.

Vickie, I talk big but I don't blame you for being upset. I would be, too. I was just trying to give you encouragement. Guess I'm needing some now. Congratulations to you for being the truly patient one. You've been staying the course.

Most of the time my bone spurs don't bother me but lately they've been "acting up." They are all over my feet. The heel spurs aren't really a problem. I've had 5 cortisone injections in my feet and have had a few spurs removed surgically. This condition runs in my family. It's just something to deal with--and to keep going. I wear orthodics (sp?) most of the time as well as SAS shoes. I sleep in socks. Now how sexy is that? My feet hurt worse when I'm lying down. Guess it has something to do with gravity. Socks give them support and help ease the pain. Sorry about the complaining. Rhonda, does Doyle have feet problems? Our grandmother had really bad problems.

Maryann, the best thing I can do for my feet is to lose weight. You'd think that would be good enough incentive to get the job done.

Rhonda, dinner watching the sunset sounds sooooooo romantic. Makes me smile.

Donna, you're right. Those teens had a blast. They were so cute sitting back watching the little ones hunting eggs.

Hi Ladies

Just here to wish you all aand hope that you dinner come out Delicious.

Nothing new Watched the Vigil Mass on catholic TV form 8=10PM not going out this morning. The pain moved up to my lower back,thigh, calf & ankle.Its going upward. I think it might be the sciatic nerve.Hope the doctor will fine out what it is and cure it before my DD & DGC come up this week.

PAULA-We're so lucky here on the CAPE we had rain instead.I'm going to the doctor tomorrow to see what wrong with my ankle or leg.


TECH-That a great goal and a wonderful idea to get back on that bike and ride to WW. My leg is still i pain,when siting to long I have to ge back on the couch and rest it.



SANDRA-I don't know as I turned my ankle in a funny way when going down the basement stairs with a huge laundry basket in front of me.



Have a great day,see you gals tomorrow in the AM.

Enjoy every morsel!!

Rhonda

Hi Everyone
Sorry I didnt get back on here yesterday.
But I want to wish everyone a
Got my turkey breat in the oven. Then going to put a sweet potato in for hubby and me. And a regular one for son.
I was bad a church. I ended up eating one of the biscuits wrapped around a sausage link. But other wise I did good. Took egg beaters with onions, green peppers and mushrooms in for hubby and me. I fixed them last night. Then all I had to do. Was warm them up in the microwave at church.
Now I will have to be extra careful the rest of the day. But I did do alot better than in the past for the church breakfast. Usually would eat a big helping of scrambled eggs. And 6 of the sausage biscuits. Even though I am not crazy about them. And them some ham. I didnt even touch that today.
Well I better go catch up with everyone.
Hope everyone has a wonderful Easter.
I will be back later.
Thinking of everyone.

Everyone! Like Rhonda said, "Enjoy every morsel." And might I add--Don't feel guilty."

Hi there
Well I am trying to stay awake. Been up since 4:00 am.
I was doing pretty good till just a little bit ago. Then I sat down. And now I am sleepy. But dont want to go to sleep now. Wont want to sleep tonight.
Had a nice day here. The sun was out. But the air was cool.

BEACHBUM I sure hope they figure out what is going on with you leg. And if it is the nerve thing. I have had that. And that is painful. The only way I could be comfortable was to stand. Or lay flat. Or keep stretching my leg. Hurt. But felt good.

ONTARGET Hope your feet are feeling better.

TECHALUM CONGRATS on getting the bike out. I havent been on a bike on about 20 years. Well a stationary bike. But not one you ride outside. I would need training wheels on one now. Hope you have a great week.

TEJAS The sunset sounds like it was beautiful. It is nice to watch those sometimes. Congrats on the exercise. I went and bought me some walking poles or trekking poles. whatever you want to call them. Want to start walking. Now I have to get me a pair of walking/tennis shoes. I have one pair. But I use those to wear to town. And I dont want to ruin them for that. So might try and go to Wal Mart tomorrow and see what they have.

BLESSEDWITHSARAH Glad the scales are going down. I am afraid they will go up for me tomorrow. I am hoping for a maintain. Hope you had a great time with your family.

VICKIE how are you doing. Hope everything is ok. Well didnt get to go to Wal Mart as early as we had wanted too. Son had to help the fire dept do something. And it was suppose to be only a hour. Ended up being 3. So he wasnt a happy camper. But did make it. And it was kinda busy. Got the egg beaters. Then fixed them last night. I added some green peppers, onions and mushrooms. Then put them in a bowl. And just heated them up at church this morning. Hope you had a great Easter.
Well I am going to get off here for now.
Hope everyone had a great day.

Thank you, Coco. They hurt all the time, but I try to ignore them. Maybe the pain will go away if I deny it's there. Get some rest.

Coco, I was up at 4:30 myself, with no good reason! I did take a nap though.

So, we had deviled eggs, ham slices, sweet potatoes, spinach and coconut pie. I had small amounts of everything. Not too bad.

I hope you all had a good day.

Rhonda

Good Morning Ladies

Hope you all had a great holiday.Our was quite but nice.

Its finally "D" Day I go to the doctors to have my ankle/leg checked on.

My sister gave me a scare Eeker last night when she called and hoped I didn't have Achilles heels as she told me" if I don't get it right away they have to operate and I might limp for the rest of life." She's all good news!!!


Than on the better note she told me that my DD Her DH and my DS and the family had a wonderful time at her house. The kids like plain rigtoni noodles as the put them on there fingers and eat them from there.At least that made me laugh.


W-I and I gained as expected.Even if it was.3 it now brought the scale up 1-lb.Hope its water retention from my painful leg muscle.


COCO-We had Rouladen a German dish that's almost like Braciole but we put onion slice,small carrot, pickle & bacon inside the meat before rolling it up. With that smashed potato and Brussels Sprouts.Thanks I will find out this afternoon.


SANDRA-Enjoyed my meal but this morning the W-I was good Up.3but than I had meat and it take meat to go though the colon over 24hrs so I should be down tomorrow.

Have a great morning,will come back and report my results from the doctors.
