  • Hi

    I have been so busy these last few days car shopping that I haven't had time to check in. I hope all of you have been OP this week, I have!! I will check back in later.

    Make a great day!!!!

    Synergy: Congrats on your loss!!!!

    Terri: Welcome to our group!
  • Hello girls, I would like to know, Do you know how many calories does each alloted points are? My points are 28, does that equals to 1200, 1500, 1600, or 1800 calories a day? I am just curious.
  • Hello ladies! I have not been on here for a loooooooong time, but I am back and just wanted to say hello! I am ready to start again and this time make it work!!
  • Dale Junior Fan--I've had two days straight being OP for the first time since Thanksgiving.

    Congrats on your loss Synergy!!! I hear 1pt=50 calories. I'm not sure. You could count pts and calories one day and figure it out.

    Welcome Keelygal!
  • Good morning, I weighed in and it was not good. I'm up 4lbs to 225. A combination of bad choices and TOM arriving anyday now. I remember in the past it took my 2 weeks to come back from a 4lb gain. Lets see how long this way takes. I decided to own up to it and change my ticker.
  • Hi everyone! Theres a little something to help keep you on track!
    Have a great day and stay OP!

  • NSV-I have leg muscles again!

    I can use less powdered skim milk than regular skim and reducing my points for my morning cofee, woohoo!

    Learned the scale might not move if I have a heavy walking day the day before, so don't let it kill your day. It will catch up eventually.
  • I am through with car shopping.....I finally got a new vehicle....Christmas came early for me...lol. My Jeep was in it's last days and now I feel safe driving around town again. I know this is a busy month for everyone, we have three more parades to do and two more Christmas parties, so I will check in when I can. I don't know if I will even weigh in for a while, but I am doing the best that I can. Hope all of you are too.

    Keelygal: I am so glad to have you back I was wondering what had happened to you.

    Shay: Good for you staying OP. I am struggling at this point.....and to think I was doing so good...lol!!! You will drop that 4 in no time!

    Jeanne: Thank you for the dust, I need it at this point.
  • Hi Keelygal! Welcome!

    flower: Yay on those leg muscles -

    Shay: Hi! I know the feeling about changing our tickers. Doesn't it suck when you have to move it "up"! Sorry. I think I'll be in the same boat. I promised myself a WI tomorrow. It'll be the first one since Thanksgiving.

    Synergy - sorry I missed your post about calories and points - I think points are made up by a variety of things. Ex: total fat, dietary fiber, etc.........so I'm really not sure either! hmmmmmm

    Daph! - hi! I had a great two OP days! I'm planning on a WI tomorrow. Oh gosh!!!! Wish me luck! I DON'T WANT TO MOVE MY TICKER UP!!!!
    Yay on the new car! What did you get? Don't you feel awesome driving around in a new car! I got a new Toyota Rav last March! I love it!

    Talk to you guys later! Have a good day! Stay OP! And oh yeah, Biggest Loser is on tonight!
  • I got so sick of moving my ticker in the wrong direction I finally just got rid of it. Maybe I should reinstall. Or maybe that would be bad luck??? lol
  • I've been gone for a while, but I am back. My hubby deployed, I started an 18 credit hour semester at school and I moved, sooooo, I have no gym, no adult conversation and no time to do anthing. But the semester is almost over and I figured I should get into shape while the hubby is away. I don't have to cook manly meals for the next year, so I can stay OP! Tomorrow I am buying myself my Christmas present, a treadmill or eliptical. I am not sure which one I would rather have. Any suggestions?
  • Morning everyone! Well as I promised.........WI (the first one since Thanksgiving) was this morning! Urgh! I had a 2.4# gain! I know, it could have been worse! I'm NOT changing my ticker. I will lose the 2.4# within 10-12 days!!!!!!! If I don't (but I will!!!), then I'll change it!!!!

    keelygal - I'll keep your DH in my thoughts & prayers! My husband was in the Navy for 12 years - in his younger years! That is great that you are treating yourself to something special! I love them both! But I enjoy my treadmill so much! Good luck on your decision!

    Have a nice day everyone! Stay OP!
  • Keely, gosh a year is a long time! When my hubby came to FL 3 months before I did, I was very sucessful on my diet. It helps to get rid of their bad habits too. lol
  • Hello ladies,

    Congrats Dale, on your new car. I love the new car smell, It smells so good!
  • I really haven't left. And I haven't been away because of guilt. Hubby and I are on the way out the door to exercise. I'll be back with an update on my past few weeks afterwards!

    to you all!!!!
