Hi Beach Bum, I hit post too quick before. I live on Long Island, I see by your post you use to live here where about on LI.

Hey Chicks-went to see some patients this morning, and now I have the munchies! I'm staying on core, but eating crazy stuff! Since I've been home I've had watermelon, popcorn, blueberry muffin, and a ww ice cream bar. I am still feeling hungry! It's not my tom, but I'm not always sure (almost 50 and things are starting to change). I'm watching "The Bucket List" with my kids right now, so I hope I can stay distracted until supper.

Wish me luck! TTFN

Hi Everyone
SLOANIE Is the Bucket List any good. Thought about renting it. And you didnt say anything wrong about my Mom. It just really hurt. She nows I try. And I have had a weight problem all my life. Even when I was young. She would put me on a diet. And make comments. My sisters are thin. I was always the overweight one. Mom just is always being negative in alot of things I do. But alot of it I try to overlook. But then I think well she is my Mom. So I dont want to say anything bad to her. Maybe one of these days I will get the courage to say something to her. I know her sister is trying to quit smoking. And she is afraid to tell her. Because of what she will say. Thank you for your support.
BEACH BUM No planter fascitiis isnt the same as a planters wart. It is pretty painful. Starting to feel some better. Been doing the exercises that the Dr told me to do. And taking celebrex.
Try to give blood today. They finally got there bag full. But then they couldnt get the 3 tubes of blood they need afterwards. So they said they couldnt use my blood. Said it was clotting too much. I know as the bag was filling. The girl had to keep playing with the needle. So dont know. Maybe the next time.
Well I hope everyone has had a great day.
Am thinking of each of you.
Have a great evening.

Hey chickies! I went to ww and wi today and I lost 1.8 pounds! I'm excited because I finally hit my 30 pound mark. 31.6 pounds to be exact! I am getting closer and closer to my halfway mark. I should be there soon!

Coco, sorry to her that your mother is the one who made those comments. I also hope I didn't offend you with my comments. But I still think it was a mean thing to say! Also, sorry to hear about your foot. Just do as the dr says. I have never had this but from what the others are saying, it will get better as long as you follow dr's orders.

Sloanie, good luck on your munching! I have had my days too. I just try to make it core and it usually gets me by.

Sloan.. hit the protein when those munchies hit.. I had to have 2 eggs between meals today to not be hungry.

I am 142 today!! I think the exercise has started to make me burn more
because I have lost 3 pounds this week I think.

:bday2: Nancy!! What did you do to celebrate?

Tracie, :woohoo: on losing over 30 lbs.

Coco, I am sorry your mom's not being supportive. As to "Bucket List"--we saw it and loved it!

Sloan, some days are just like that. I like Nancy's suggestion about eating protein.

Hi all-we loved the Bucket List. It was a bittersweet story.
Thanks for all your encouraging comments! I won't tell you how it turned out, ;) but I will say that I'm okay and will be op tomorrow. You chicks are great!
Nancy-congrats on your loss and happy birthday! :hug: I feel like I'm going so slow! I guess if I stayed op more consistently, I wouldn't feel that way :(
Tracie- over 30 pounds! :carrot::cb::dance::dancer::hyper::twirly::cheer3: :broc::cheer2::woohoo::congrat: I'm so excited for you!

GTG finish paperwork from my nursing visits today. I've been procrastinating, so I'd better get busy.

Nighty night

Who figured out I had a birthday??
When I went to the beach a few weeks ago I celebrated
there, but I thought I never told you guys because I was away.
I am wondering if when Sloan gave me a :celebrate: about my weight
everyone thought it was a birthday???
My Grandma was right , when you are sneaky you always get caught:dizzy:

Tracy..you should be so proud of yourself!!!!!!
Give yourself a reward like new exercise clothes.
When I hit my 1/2 way mark I am eating pizza :hun:

Good Morning ladies:)

I have to run and get ready for my ww meeting,after that Leo & I are heading for the lung doctor for a 1PM appointment,should be back around 3PM.


ThinGirl-I used to live in North Bellmore,south of East Meadows Long Island.Its got too expensive to live there so we moved to the Cape instead.


CoCo-Sorry that you in so much pain. I though it was the same.Glad that you're feeling better today.


Tracy-:carrot:Big congrats:carrot: on your 1.8 weight loss.:carrot:and your 30 lb mark:carrot:What can I say your doing terrific :carrot:

Have to go have a great morning I see you gals later

Hugs :) BB

Hi Ladies:)

Went to my WW meeting and I stayed the same. In one way I'm happy I didn't gain after last weekends birthday bash. I'm going to stay on the core,but watch my WPA's going to allow myself 3 per day if needed.That would be 21 pts for the week.

Hugs :) BB

Nancy, maybe I have "Lucy" powers. When I read your post about being 142 yesterday, I thought you'd said, "I am 42 today." The funniest part is I just had to delete a post to you teasing you about forgetting you'd told us you'd turned 42 yesterday. (I used to teach reading. Guess I need to teach myself to be more careful.)

BB, congratulations on staying the same. I'll bet your body's getting ready to shed some ounces.

So? What are all you Chickies doing today?

Hey Chickies! Thanks for all the :carrot::dance::cheer3:cheering you guys gave me! I couldn't have done it without all of you! YOu've all helped me so much.

Nancy, at my halfway point I am eating chinese. Not the chicken and broccoli kind of chinese, but the crab rangoon, eggroll and sweet & sour chicken. I love it but have stayed away from it. But I will eat it soon, just once in a while for a treat!

I will be hanging out by the pool tonight, relaxing. One more day of work and then the weekend. Can't wait until I'm done for the weekend.

So, Sandra: what am I doing? More of the same. Will the fun never stop?

One more meeting of senior administrators tomorrow and then it slows down. Tuesday is Canada Day and the University gave us Monday off too. SO, there is a four day holiday starting Saturday. I'm going to take it all off!

This is a big weekend in Toronto. It is Gay Pride Day with a parade that you would not believe. Millions- I'm not joking- millions of people come and watch or participate. Rain is forecast but nothing will dampen the spirits. I won't be going because I really can't handle the crowds anymore. I'll be at home trying to get some of the never-ending chores done.

I hope you're all having a great evening.

:wave:
Rhonda

Rhonda, I'm glad you're having a 4 day weekend. Enjoy every minute. I'm not into big crowds any more either.
