Hi Everyone,

Just a quick note before I begin work again. I was up until 1am this morning working trying to get in some hours for the ones I lost all week.LOL
Anyway I did great at the meeting last night. I lost 1 1/2 lbs this week. I was happy about that. I am going to make it to my 10 lbs by june 4th I know it.
Wendy how are you doing? The clock is ticking on us if we want to reach the 10 lb loss. I hope you are doing great as well.

Summer where are you hiding? I miss you.

Penny you sure do have a lot of people for your challange. That is great.

Eleni,

That is great that you turtled again. At least you aren't gaining. That is a big thing. Keep moving forward and don't look back. Put your plan as a priority in your life and you will see a huge difference. Hopefully things have slowed down for you so that you can do this now. Take time for you. You sure have enough time at work to come up with a plan.LOL I am so glad that you don't have the stressful job anymore. It is better for your health.

Have a great one everybody. I will check in later.

Sherri

Hi ladies! I am doing great today and have stayed on plan all day long I am so physed! My hubby and I are going out to a resturant and to a movie tonight alone. I know it is great! This will be the 3rd time in 2 years I think I have already prepared myself b/c we are going to my fav. resturant. But I am going to order off the sugar busters menu with my water and no popcorn at the movies. I have done it before and can again!

I am rethinking my free night on Fridays. I think I am going to discontinue it and stay on plan all week. Before when I did not have a free week I think I was losing more. I am going to try it next week and see!

Wendy???? Where are you? We miss you and want you to stay in on the challenge!

And Christie! Get your butt back here!!!!!

Eleni ~ I hope you are still taking time out for yourselve You Need IT!

Sherri !~ Congrats on a great loss. You will be at your mini goal and ultimate goal in no time!!!!

Summer? Where are you????? How are things going??

Marie ~ Are you still here? Come visit us

Well, We are having a walk on May5th at a recreational park down from us. We are getting sponsors and walking. We are going to put the money in SRD for next year! That is the same day for the fitting for my brothers wedding and bachlorette party! It will be a full day! I tell yoU!!!!!

Take care Penny

Just want to welcome all the new people.I saw several new names on the challenge thread.
Sherri,Thank you sooooooo much for the gifts.You shouldn't have but know it is greatly appreciated.I ordered some charms a while back and haven't gotten them yet.I will also be getting some from SRD. I will be sending you one when I get them.
You ladies are so good to me.If we lived close to each other we would have the best TOPS anywhere.Am looking forward to meeting the one lady that responded.
I am so proud of those of you that are just doing so good. I am trying to get back on track.I figure as long as I don't totally give up I will be OK. I came very close to quitting the chapter I am in but when I slept on it I decided I was being too sensitive.Also my wonderful husband who always supports me encouraged me to not quit. Did I tell you he is "almost" perfect.
Have to see if I can get a few things done around here.
All of you help me so much.Always remember that

Hey everyone,
I guess I bettter get back on here before Penny comes after me LOL
I had Megans Bithday party last night and this week ws just flat busy!!! BUT I am back on here now
I am glad to see everyone doing good, Great job on the maintaining Eleni!!
I loved the postcard you sent, it is a beautiful picture of how the city kinda melts around the ocean I LOVE Florida!! I have been there twice and love seeing the ocean and swimming or should I say floating in it LOL, And thanks for the bookmark, I will put that right in my Bible You are such a sweetie!!
Sherri- I got your Easter card, Thanks so much, I was shocked when I saw who it was from.... It was a nice suprise
Well guys I guess I better go fix the old man supper before he gets here, You know how tempermental men can be LOL...
Hope everyone has a great weekend!!

I think some of you misunderstood.The only reason I had a turtle was I used my free pass.I actually had a very large gain. It seems like I keep losing and gaining the same pounds over and over lately.
It was nice to see so many new names and also our faithful ones that have just been busy.
I tried to take some notes as my memory is awful.
Penny you are really planning on what and how to do and that will make you a KOP soon.Looks like May 5 is going to be a busy day. I use my journal everyday.In fact I am almost half way thru it.
Sherri and Wendy---good losses
Allanah-I did not do well on other challenge either but hopefully we will both do better this time
Nita--I will be looking for you at Fort Myers.I should be able to find your shirts and then I will start asking where you are.I go down on Thursday also.I am staying at a bed and breakfast so it will be comfortable for my hubby.
Marie-Hope things are good with you
Welcome to Adrienne,Misty,Laurie and Median and anyone else I have missed.
Median-Tell us about your SRD.I am hoping ours will get me going and keep me going this year..
SRD's are always motivation when you see all the people that have lost and kept it off.Unfortunately it can be a downer too when we haven't lost and wonder when we will succeed.
All you new people please tell us something about yourself on the bio thread.
Well gotta go.Hubby and I are going to try to spend some time together tonight.If we can both stay awake.We may play a game of upwords.I love board games

OK Hopefully I won't lose this thread......lol I have to say a couple things!

First thing is SHERRI! Thank you sooooo much for the beautiful certificate. The mail lady drove back to my long driveway today and I said omg. (I am always scared it is something bad.....lol Like I have to sign for something....lol) I don't know why but I always think that....LOL Anyway.... The frame broke into a million pieces BUT I took out the certificate and the charm. Thank you so much. You are just so awesome I tell you!!!!

Eleni ~ I want to help you get back on track. I know you have to be the one to do this but I want to help you! What can I do to help you overcome this hurtle!???

Christie! Your back!! YAH!!! I am so excited to see you! Please join us more often.

And for the rest of ya' where are YOU!???????

I did horrible tonight and could not resist the temptations Instead of the resturant I thought we were going to we went to Semolina's instead. It is a pasta resturant It is excellent but even the salad's are loaded with fat. I ordered my fav Chicken cordon bleu pasta And then to top it off, we walk into the movies and the aroma of buttered popcorn filled the air I am so disgusted with myself. He bought me a med but I did not eat as much as I usually do! I have set me a goal for my scale to read 176 at least one time this week at my home. I was 177.25 at tops thursday so I will have to work hard on it now! Well back on plan tomorrow. I have my sil's shower tomorrow and also a cousin's wedding shower in the same day. Oh great! I better eat first!

I know i know I am rambling........just one more thing.....LOL

You know I promise myself ok you will not eat the (say) popcorn and I can convince myself that I won't but then when the food comes down to it I just can't stop myself sometimes!

I am hoping not to let myself get down!

Penny
