Hi everyone
Thought I would get on here for a few minutes. Son and hubby are out running around. Got the dishes in the dishwasher. Need to run the sweeper. Will do that after I get off here.

SHERRI My son is going to a welding school. They broke up his time. He went for 1 week had a week off. Then went for 3 weeks. Home for 3 weeks. And then he has 4 more weeks to go. Then he will be done. Glad your eating went well. My goal for today is. If I feel like pick stick gum in my mouth. So hopefully that will work.

MOMPEN. A cream chicken sandwhich is cooked chicken cut up or picked off the bone. Then add seasoning and a thickening. Pretty good stuff. That is what we will have for supper tonight. Always have to have at least one if not two.

FLGAL How are you doing. Are you still having alot of storms. The sun is trying to shine here right now. But have a chance of rain later today and into the evening. Hope it holds off till after the parade. But it never fails. It always rain when the fireman try to have their carnaval. So hope you are staying OP. Am thinking of you. Have a great day.

To everyone else. I am thinking of you. Hope everyone has a great weekend. Not much planed for ours.
Well I better get off here. Get a couple of things done. So have a great day. Hope everyone stays OP. I am trying. Will check in later.

Hi Coco and Everyone,

I lost weight!! I lost 1 whole pound today, which makes me very happy. Hopefully I am starting to lose again. The hardest thing to do is sticking to a diet when you aren't losing. One woman came into our meeting today and commented that it doesn't happen (losing weight) without working at it. And that is so true. We have to have a dedicated plan and work at it all the time to get to our goal, even short term goals. I want to end this month with a loss, any loss will help.

Coco...We have been having storms every afternoon or evening. The lightening strikes and the thunder rolls. Very noisy. It's hard to get any outside work done. Besides the grass being wet, the mesquitos are bad. But it won't last long. Usually in Aug., we have the dog days of summer, hot and dry.
Hope everthing goes well for your fireman's carnival. Maybe the rain will hold off until it is over.

Elen....Congrats on your loss for the month of July. You are doing great. Good luck with this month's losses.

Sherri and Penny......Hope you are both doing good.

Have a good day everyone. Will check back later.

Nita

CONGRADULATIONS NITA. That is wonderful a pound loss. You go girl.

GOOD GOING NITA!!!! Glad the scale moved again for you.....and yep, this sure is work and there is no way around it! You are doing WONDERFUL!!!

Coco, hope you got the things done you had planned and are staying OP.

I finally made it back to my meeting Wed and I gained almost 6#'s after being gone for 9 weeks. I knew I would, actually thought it might be worse, so I was OK with it. Now it is time to put that behind me [yep, it's on my behind also! YIKES!] and start anew. I've been eating so much junk food....sugars.....and the urges when they hit make me want to 'kill' for it. Very scarey to have such a 'pull' at 'wanting' stuff. Don't like it at all. Gotta get this under control.....just need to figure out how.....and stop the stress. Maybe if I become a hermit............................

I haven't been on line much, no time and it takes a back seat to everything else. Sometimes I wonder why we waste the money of having a computer and having a ISP. Will need to go back and catch up on the 'news'.

Am having such a hard time believing that August is here. May we all have a good month where we don't have any gains at the end of it. Even if it is a Turtle, that would be good! Take care all and I am going to make sure that I drink more water........that always helps!
