Hi Ladies,

I have missed you. I am back from camping again.LOL And I am ready to get serious. I am so big I feel so uncomfortable and my clothes don't fit and I am depressed. So now is the time to do something to turn it around.

Coco,

Sorry about the surgery. I am so glad everything came out good. I bet you are sore. You take it easy and know you are being thought of. Like christie said don't worry about the weight right now your health is more important. You will be back on your feet in no time. Thanks for updating us.

Christie,

Glad you came here instead of eating the other day. I am ready to join you with the WW today. How was your first week of it? It takes your body a little time to get used to not eating as much that is why you are hungry. In time your body will adjust to the amount of food you are eating and you will be fine. Hang in there. I will be back at you tonight I will call you girl and check in tonight.

Camping was fun. But had to go to work for a few hours on thursday then with all the running around I had to do afterwards I never got to camp until 2:30. Then had to go back to the store on friday and I wandered and went yard saling. Got some good buys and it was fun. So my trip wasn't very long compared to theirs. But it was still nice to be away from here.
Came home to a very hot house and no water. We had power failures all over the northeast and it blew the breaker for the water pump so we had no water. Then I had to take megan to my brothers house when we got back for a party. Gave her a bath over there. On the way home the motor went in my van. So yesterday was not a good day at all. But I did manage to go get some of those avon bars I like so much to start eating them.
Today is a new day and a fresh start I have managed to make it way up to 197 I was only this heavy while preg before. So I have a lot of work to do. We did a lot of walking at camp this time so that helped and I worked out one day as well. So the exercise isn't a problem just have to get the food under control and I will.

Talk to you all later.

Sherri

Hey Sherri!
I did great over the weekend and am SO excited that you will be starting with me today I almost gave in to temptation several times but I held up and never went over 25 pts. We also found out that our 10 year high school reunion in in October so now I am even MORE motivated than ever!!! I HAVE to lose at least 10 pounds by then to feel comfotable seeing everyone. Well I hate to run off for now but we are headed to the waterpark.......
catch you ladies a little later!!

Hi Ladies
Boy am I tried today. Took Son back to school yesterday. Dad went and picked him up for me on Friday. Was afraid i wouldnt feel like making the trip. So I told Dad I would take son back Sunday. Maybe should have let Dad do that too. Son only has this week and maybe next week left of school. Then he will be done. Or should be. Son was in the blackout too. Wasnt a real happy person. But at least it came back on before too late. Then he was all right.

Christie and Sherri Thanks for thinking of me. Glad to be getting the stitches out tomorrow. I guess. I figure it will hurt a little. Then I figure it will be sore for a couple more days. I will join you ladies with the WW thing. Will have to dig my stuff out. But I think that will help.

Not alot going on here today. Not as humid as it has been. But still warm. Probably wont get into too much today. Just having a lazy day. Well I am going to get off here for now. Will check in later. Have a great day everyone.
A TOPS PAL

Christie,

I am sooooo proud of you girl for staying on plan all weekend. It will get easier and you will still have days that you want to eat but remember you are stronger then the urge. Just pray through it girl you can do it.
How was the waterpark today? I am sure it was a great day for it. Aren't the girls back in school yet?

Coco,

I am glad you are taking it easy. It shouldn't hurt too bad when you get the stiches out. Normally it doesn't hurt. You will be fine. I will help you with the points if you want. I think that is great that you are joining us with the WW. It is so good to have others doing the same plan as you are. I know it really helps me to stay motivated. We can all struggle through together.

As for me I had a great first day on plan. I ended the day with 18 pts. I did get hungry this afternoon and I had a cup of green tea with lemon and gingsing that curbed the appetite for me. Thank god.LOL
I looked at a van tonight and signed the agreement. I am hoping the bank approves us for this one. They are giving us more then what we owe on our truck which is a great thing. They are a customer of ours and they love us and my dad deals with them. So I went right in and talked to the owner and asked if he could help me. And he did. I don't like the color (dark green) and it has the 2 bucket seats in the back instead of the bench but for those 2 things I will adjust if we can get it. It is a 2001 chrysler town and country. So I should know tomorrow. I will let you know.

I am tired and ready for bed. Talk to you all tomorrow.

Sherri

Well Ladies! here I am again. I am kind of down b/c I can not get my motivation going. I am glad everyone else is doing so good. I want to beat this and get back to where I was before I got pregnant. I guess I need to just get off my butt and do it!
I will write later ........... Penny
