Good Morning Everyone! Happy April Fool's Day!

Just thought I would get things started this morning. I am up earlier than normal, but have got a lot to get done today. I am off today, and wanted to get started on my cleaning early where I will have some free time this afternoon! The nephew's got another baseball game this afternoon, so I am hoping I can get everything done in time to enjoy that! I stepped on the scales this morning, and I am down 2 lbs. The lbs aren't falling off as quickly as before, but at least the scales are moving down instead of up .

Star: Is your surgery today? Sorry, I couldn't remember what date it was! Good Luck with it, and hope you are seeing clearly very soon!

Hope everyone has a great Wednesday, and I will be checking back later this morning!

Welllllll my chickens came yesterday. 4 baby chicks ahhhhhhhh unfortunatly I am thinking one wont make it.
Just think 5 months and I will have farm fresh eggs.

Weight is still doing good NO aGAINS yahoo

I was really craving something sweet yesterday so bought just a few jelly beans and said I would save them till after work. ( due to the effect they have had before) 9"30 came and it had passed so I will save them for a rainy day.

Eggs hardboild with mayo right now is my favourite thing which is sof unny as all my life I would not eat an egg if life depended on it LOL.

Hope everone has a good day and I learn to type LOL sorry for all they typo's I am to lazy to fix

"I swear officer I didn't see the bread coming, if only I had swerved to miss it!"

Oye my head is a little this morning. Yes, there was wine involved. Took dh out for his birthday last night. Dinner was fine, except for the giant loaf of fresh bread that they put on the table and the amount of alcohol that was consumed. Oh well, on with a new day.

Since my tummy is not at it's best today I just brought some cheese, sunflower seeds and a low carb bagel to eat today. Just didn't have the strength to make a salad.

I will check in later for personals.
Have a great day.

Morning all!!

I ended up working out last night instead of taking a bath. Did the pilates basic tape to get the moves down..... it was pretty fun so I guess I'll be doing that for real next time I work out. I'm kinda proud of myself.... I still have hairy legs.... but I worked out instead of taking a bath! Go me!

And for all of you interested... all the planets will be in alignment this morning at 7:40 Illinois time. This means that the Earth's gravitational pull will be weakened and we will all weigh less!!!!!! Also, if you jump into the air at that time, you are supposed to feel a sensation close to weightlessness.... not that you're going to float off into space or anything! This will only happen once in your lifetime so go ahead... JUMP!

Jane: Sorry to hear you're under the weather. Make sure to take advil Ya just gotta "let go" once in a while and DH's bd is one of them


jjcj: I wish I could have chickens here. I'd have 4-6 of them. But our township decided if you don't have 5 acres or more you can't have anything "farmish". Does that include those pigs you see in houses? Probably Was tempted to get one just to see what would happen. lol


Lisa: Happy April Fools to you too Yup, I wouldn't complain about 2 pounds dropping off every week. And wish I could claim that again. Keep up the good work.

Isn't Star having her surgery on Friday? Or did she say it was Thursday? If it's today: Good luck Star!

Well, forgot to mention yesterday that while I was getting dressed DD pointed at my belly. I couldn't figure out why so I asked her. I prepared for a snotty comment. She's like "look at it, there's ridges". OMG, you can tell where the stomach muscles are supposed to be Well, it's a start. Now if only the belly would disappear so I could see what it's like to have muscles there too. Don't think I've ever had stomach muscles show before. Way cool!! Now trimmer and thinner and more defined is where I wanna be (As the theme to Green Acres runs through my head ).

Shimma: YOu snuck in on me. Hi there. not sure if this white woman will jump. I'm not a jumper. Have a good time jumping

Morning All,
Happy April Fools! Miserable weather today, I could barely get out of bed. Not such a funny joke on Nature's part. To cheer myself up I checked the weather in Las Vegas. It's going to be 80 by the time I get there on Wednesday! I'm pretty happy with my workout routine (either running or eliptical machine for 35 minutes, then weights) but today I'm going to be changing things up as the roomie and I have decided to take up squash. Neither one of us really knows how to play, but I'm going to look it up. This could get humorous.

Mrs. H- Congratulations on the scale moving in the right direction!

Jane- Hope you feel better. With this weather sleeping the day away would be a piece of cake, er... low carb cheesecake?

Shimma- I can't believe I missed a perfect alignment of the planets by only 20 minutes! I'm going to be kicking myself all day. Also, what part of Illinois do you live in. I myself am a native of Chicago.

Brenda- Aren't unexpected, not even really intended as compliments just the nicest. I'm sure you'll have a six-pack in no time.

Well, now I must dash to get to my one and only class of the day!
Abbie

Good morning to all! The weather in Houston is outstanding! I am really beginning to love this WOE! The only thing is that I have no appetite. I have been skipping meals because I am not hungry at all, and I know I can't do that, so I have to force myself to eat. That is a first! Usually, I was forcing myself NOT to eat! My moods are so stable now. I ordered the Walk away the pounds dvd yesterday, and that will also improve my moods. I can't tell you how much this board has helped me. Support groups and things like this used to be so corn ball to me, but, I don't think I would have stuck with this WOE w/out all of you! Thank you all so much!

Abbie: Have a blast in Vegas! I commend you for doing the eliptical machine. That bi**h nearly killed me!

Mrs. H: Contrats on the loss

Jane: I hope you feel better. Can I safely assume you drank good wine and not house wine?

Shimma: Contrats on working out. You go with those hairy legs! I don't think I will ever feel close to weightless!

jjcj: I hope the little chickie makes it I think chicks and ducklings are adorable!

Brenda: You go with those six pack abs! Compliments like that make all of the hard work and sacrifice so worth it!

Star: Here is something for you before your surgery You are in my prayers.

Has anyone heard from Tummy lately? Tummy, where ever you are, we miss you!

If I missed anyone, I am sorry. Have a wonderful day!

Good Morning!! Well, this AM it's still raining! What fun! Some of it was even ice! Yuck!

The good news...It has been a very industrious week at home. Tuesday we cleaned cupboards in the kitchen and sent a whole box of HIGH CARB foods to Agape Ministries (Like good will). Yesterday, we cleaned practically the entire house. AND we folded and put away the (cringe) 10 loads of laundry that had been patiently waiting! I tell you this working mom thing isn't all it's cracked up to be!! But I knew I would have no time this weekend to do anything so I rallied the troops and we got quite a bit accomplished this week! It is awesome to have so much energy!!

Also, I started taking Vitamin E, Evening Primrose Oil and L-glutamine this week. I'm trying to get some facts about these if you have any. The first two Vit E and EPO were recommended to me because I just had 3 cysts drained in my breast and there is a bit bruise (hematoma) in the deep tissue. And I started taking the L-glut becuase of working out and this WOE. Anyone else taking supplements and might have any info on these??

Oh, my youngest son also lost his first tooth Monday!!! Such excitement!

Ok, I'll stop rambling now!

Hi Lori!

Can you come clean my house and do my laundry? I don't know much about those supplements, but if you go to google, you should be able to get some info.

I checked around a bit on google yesterday. Problem is all of the retail is what i hit on most of the time. They don't have just a ton of facts or research on their sites. Or any facts that I would believe anyway

I know what you mean! Researching stuff on the web used to be easy. Now it is nothing but ads! I don't know if you have a Whole Foods store in your area, but you may want to call them and ask for the nutrition department. They are really helpful, and it dosen't cost you a thing to ask. I also just thought of something. You may want to visit the weightlifting fourm in this board. I know they probably have pretty good knowledge about supplements.

Catgirl67: Oh it was good wine alright...too much good wine.

Hi ladies, Running late this moring so I don't have enoughtime to personal everyone but HI!!!!

JJ we have chickens too, 3 hens, 2 plymouth rocks and 1 legghorn, we had 3 others but a racoon ame and massacred them (lesson have a roof on their coop!) BUt the eggs are wonderful and fresh!! The yolks are a healthy orange instead of yellow.

I am having a crappy morning, I know my body is re-configuring but I con't seem to get past 239....it goes up to 242 back down to 239 and i have been so good!! I am anxiuosly awaiting a WHOOSH which I know is coming but hurry up already!! Then Howard Stern was off the air this morning and nothing makes me more grumpy than that!!! It was an aprils fools joke but still it made me GRUMPY!!! So I am now trying to get myself ready to work....

Talk to you ladies later, Have a great day!!

Love TG

Jane: This should make you feel better!

TG: I am sorry you are having a bad morning. I hope your stall ends soon! I am sure it will. Keep up the good work. It will happen!
