I'm Susan!!

I just joined TOPS (online for now) 18 days ago...again! I was in a Chapter several years ago (6!) when we were stationed overseas, and was the leader of TOPS #IT 24, Aviano for 2 years. I now live in ND with my husband (of course) and our 4 kiddos, ages 10, 5,3 and 16 months.

My goal wt is 155 and currently, I am 217.4. I use TOPS Nutribase and WATP's.

Looking forward to meeting you all!

Susan

Ok, If you saw my previous post, I deleted it, and changed my name. I felt that it could be taken as an insult to the other "Susie" on here...

Hi Susan!

It is great to have you with us! Congrats on joining TOPS!!!!

Don't forget to post your Bio on the top of the page!

How have you been doing on plan?

Don't you just love WATP's ? I sure do!

It is nice to meet you and I hope to see you here alot!!!

Hi Susan!
I'm the "other Susie"...it's nice to have you hear with us. By the way....there can never be to many of us "Susie's!

I also love your log in name. I think we "think" along the same lines?!

I don't know what WATP's are. Fill me in.

It's nice to meet you Susan and we are happy to have you!

Susie,
This is too funny that you are both named close and the screenames are close......how funny!

Is this your sister???

WATP's is Leslie Sansome's Walk Away the Pounds

It is a indoor walking program... The one mile is only 15 so it is very easy to do!

Have a great day! Congrats again on that awesome loss last week!

OH BTW, the other Susan.. Be sure to join our August Weigh In thread We would love to have you!

Thanks Penny for being such a source of encourgement.

I can't believe I didn't know what the WATP's were. I even have those tapes!

They are really good. I use them when I can't make it to the Y for a workout.

Susie..

I do that all the time... For the longest... I didn't know myself.....lol

How are you doing on plan?

Hey girls,

It is saturday and I am working some overtime which is why I can actually be on here on the weekend. It isn't busy either so I am able to do this!

Weight loss has kinda stalled but I am really trying to get back on track and get motivated again. I haven't been weighed in a few weeks because of the training I was in at work but that is all done after monday so I am planning to get weighed wednesday after work. I need to as I need the meetings to keep motivated and keep me going. I know I have to do this for myself but I have to work really hard at putting myself first once inawhile. I still can't attend TOPS as they meet at time I can't attend but I go to another group here in town that is very similar. Weigh-ins and meetings every week.

Otherwise I have been doing good. I got a promotion at work so that now I am fulltime permanent. I was variable hour before that. Now I am guaranteed full-time hours which I really wanted. I also got my 6 month raise last week so all in all it was a pretty good week work wise!

Well, talk to everyone later. I'll check in again on monday!

Alannah

Alannah,
Congrats on the promotion at work

Now get your bootie back on plan!

Hope you are having a great weekend

Hi Susan,

It is nice to meet you. Welcome to the boards. We are all here to help you and everyone in good times and bad. Glad you stopped by hope you stop by more often.

Susie,

How did your date go with the 3 year old? Did you have fun and not overeat? I hope so. You are doing great keep up the great work. What did she get for an umbrella?

Penny,

How are you doing girl? I missed something who is melissa? I had the same idea as you for the card for eleni. I got it the other night haven't had a chance to get it in the mail. I plan on doing it tomorrow finally so it can go out on monday.

Wendy,

How are you doing girl?

Christie,

Miss you girl how are you? Are the girls ready to start school they start this week or next right? It wasn't a good summer here this year it has rained and was cold on and off all summer.

As for me TOM finally returned during the night last night. Now I know why I have been so bloated. I lost 3 lbs just from that today. About time.LOL
I have been getting very light headed for the past 2 days don't know what that is all about. It happens throughout the whole day.
I did great with eating and exercise all week. I didn't go overboard with what I ate at all plus I worked out 3 days this week. I feel so much better no that I am working out. I am sore but that will pass as I exercise more and get used to it.

We went to a birthday party today at a beach the whole family went it was a nice day. I had to go to the funeral yesterday then we had company all night last night they bought pizza for dinner and the kids all played. Megan had a friend sleepover. So it was nuts today trying to get ready for the party we were 2 hours late but they planned to be there all day anyway I called her to tell her. I got home after the funeral on friday (ended up taking Jesse with me) and John had cleaned the whole house it looked great. He did laundry during the week. It was piled high I just had to find time to put it away. I did half of it tonight and changed the beds. Not much else happening here. Just staying on track and tomorrow is my day to exercise again. I am exercising to my 30 min aerobic tape every other day. It will pay off once I get rid of the bloat. Never had a TOM so heavy before it is nuts. I hope it doesn't last for 2 weeks like this like I have heard from others especially since I had my tubes tied. We will see.
I am heading to bed will talk to you tomorrow.

Susie, I originally joined with the username "susiefatbutt", but changed it... hehe. TheChoiceIsMine is the name of my "blog" too..LOL

It is ultimately our choice to be this way, or not isn't it? We probably do think along the same lines! LOL

Nice to meet you all!! You will be hearing lots more from me, as I am quiet that talker!!
