Hi Sonny & Happy Holidays to you!!

Lacey - I've noticed my weight doesn't budge when I don't eat regularily. I know you know this already, so don't be fretting about the gain. The holidays are a wild, crazy time & I'm positive once your days aren't as hectic, that gain will be gone! Your cousin is still in my prayers!

Em - you are definitely NOT ugly at all! I think you look quite beautiful in that picture! I would just try to stay as LC as possible between now & the New Year. I can't remember if it's in DANDR or Atkins Essentials that says NOT to start induction at certain times in your life or during holidays.

OK Robin...now you've got my mouth a'waterin . Steak & mushroom pie...lemon meringue..... YUMMMMM. Had to LOL about the bread machine. I used to make a loaf every morning (we went through bread that fast...or rather I did ). I've used it once since coming back to LC. Congrats on your loss - what a nice gift (along with the skirt!!) .

Well, no Christmas Day surprise whoosh for me. Not surprised tho as TOM is here. A friend of mine must have a really contorted view of me. He knows I have no family & got me a couple gifts so I would have something to open with the kids. Got me a Canadian Girls Kick *** sweater that I love. However, it's an XXL. I like my clothes baggy, especially sweaters, so not a big (no pun intended ) deal. Then he got me a winter coat (why when I have 5 of them??) size 12. Ya...maybe when I was 12 . So...do I look really fat or really thin? Who knows? Not him apparently . Going out tomorrow to buy him a pair of glasses .

Well, have a great evening ladies. I've just about got all my Christmas stuff put away (started as soon as the kids went to their dads), so now I have room to exercise again.

you know.....out of all the goodies to be had today I most enjoyed the roast beef, and the oatmeal casserole bread I ate to sop up the gravy So I made sure I had another serving before bedtime, cuz its going to be easter before I eat like this again I am soooooooooooooo stuffed!!

Ready for the Valentines day challenge ladies?

The sooner the V-Day thread is started, the better!!
