In regards to Polenta, after you have cooked it you need to chill 20 minutes or overnight it until it is firm and then slice or cut in the shape that you want and then fry it.

Today was my weigh in, I gained 5.4# over vacation and when we came back had some salty popcorn and could feel the water retention in my feet. Went to the doctor yesterday and I am down 10# from my last visit so am not too terribly upset about my gain. Had a good visit with my brother and his wife in Tenn. whom I had not seen for some time. Anna, hope you can get your polenta made with this help.

If it is to be it is up to me.

vivian, that's good news about being down 10 lbs since your last doctor's visit. congratulations!

[Vickie]

You'll get it back off, Vivian. 10 pounds down overall is great!

Sandra, that is shocking! I'm so sorry that you were one of the unfortunate people to be hurt by that drug. I've always been to chicken to take that stuff.

[ontarget]

vickie, i lost fast taking them. 50 lbs in 2 months and the other 40 just a few months later. i thought i'd found the magic way for sure. however, you are very smart not to take them.

Hey ladies! Hope everyone has had a great Saturday. Can't stay on here too long, got lots to do to get ready for tomorrow morning (DH's big morning at the church!). Just wanted to come by and check on my chicks. Found a skirt today but no top to go with it. Hopefully I can find something before the wedding this weekend. Boy, trying on clothes is so motivating...size 16s were fitting me, which hasn't happened in almost a year, but that belly pooch was sure showing. You know, everything is made so form fitting anymore, especially dressy clothes, it is hard to find something to cover that belly pooch up. Oh well. Hopefully I can find something soon.

Lisa, what an impressive weigh-in! Does that mean you will have a 30 pound loss this week?

Angela, you may have already watched it, but I recommend Spanglish. I thought it was a good movie.

Linda, we didn't hear anything today. Tomorrow is his big morning at church, so maybe something next week. Hope you are enjoying your evening with your DH.

Sandra, it sounds like you have really been through a lot. Congrats on making healthy choices now.

Vickie, glad you enjoyed your recital today. Did you find something for dinner?

Vivian, congrats on the 10 pounds. That's an accomplishment.

And I've said it once, but I'll say it again....CONGRATS KATHY!

Off to find something to wear and to shower....tomorrow's a big day!

[septembersgoal]

Oh and I meant to ask Vickie....do you ever use your wpas? Well, besides for smart balance? It seems like you eat perfectly core most all the time!! Just wondering.

[akiss2you]

CONGRATS ON YOUR LOSS KATHY!!!! Good thing you did go to your weigh in.

I hope everyone is doing well today. Myself I have been so bad today. I have had brownies, hot dogs, A very bad eating day I must say. Plus a I had a couple of drinks last night at TGIFridays.

What am I going to do with myself

You'll do what we all do...pick yourself up, brush off, and jump back in. That's the way it goes! It doesn't make us feel good, but I think its better in the long run. Yep, that's right. I think its better for us to go slow and steady, screw up a few times, and then press on.

Just checking in before bed. I'll be sure to let you all know how it goes tomorrow!

[akiss2you]

Welcome Pearl!!!!! You have found a great group. Everyone on here has helped me a lot with core and support. This is only my 2nd week of core...

let me double check on the weight tracker and I will reply right back on how to do it. I have only done it once.

ohhh, I have a tummy ache from all the bad food I ate today. I guess it's my body punishing me for eating bad....
I know now that I will be good on Sunday.

Ok this is a crazy story. We just found out that Thomas'(my honey) nephew drowned today. Thomas spoke with his SIL and she is not even upset. She told him it will be okay when he got upset. Thomas' brother is devistated about losing his son, which I know I would be too and he doesnt understand his wifes story of how it happened or why she isnt upset.... I dont know what to tell him. I would react the same way as him not her.

[Katpo]

Oh holy smoke! That's horrible!!! How old was he?
