Thanks, Kath! I changed the year to 1991. What on earth is wrong with me? I keep saying 2001 out loud too. Sheesh. I guess I'm just distracted with other things. Would you believe that I was just testing you all?!

I'm glad your finger is getting better. It must be hard to work like that.

Stacey, :cp: :bravo: :cp: to you! Let's see if we can do the same next week.

I feel SO worn out. I have to go. Jim wants me to make a grocery list and I have no idea what to have for dinner. I just took frozen chicken out this morning so it may have to wait until tomorrow.

I forgot to tell you all that I finally found the Kraft Free mozarella and the cheddar at my Super KMart. I've been using the Jewel/Albertsons brand name or the soy cheese. The Kraft brand was better by far; it melted much better and was creamier and had a better flavor.

I'm also still trying to track down the WW cold cereal. Despite what the WW magazine says, it is NOT available in the area. I called WW HQ and they gave me the number of the mill that manufactures it for them. Too bad the company doesn't answer the phone. Sigh. How do companies stay in business?

Kathy, I just saw your post about going to the gym first thing this morning. Good for you. I think exercise and water are huge factors. Was that a low weight for you? I have a hard time keeping track of my own.

No, I had 139 last week one day. Water's good for me but if I exercise, I have to eat more and I have a hard time eating much more than I already do.

I can't find that ONE cereal that's marked Core. They say Super Target sells it but :no: they don't have it around here! The grocery stores have all the others, but I want that Vanilla Puffed Wheat. I had it once, before it was marked Core. If you find some, let me know!

Vickie & Stacey congratulations on the weight loss!!! :bravo:

Vickie Glad Cassie is doing better today!

Good morning Kathy glad to hear the finger is not broken.

Stacey I know Terrace on The Park, Very nice place, I use to live not too far from LaGuardia Airport. AHH 1987, I remember the 80's, I almost got married in 1988 but we broke it off three months before the wedding. I married ten years later to a wonderful much better person.

Kathy, are you able to find your Crystal Light Red Ruby Grapefruit? It's everywhere here now. I'll let you know if I find the cereal. I haven't tried Super Target. I'll look there.

Thanks Niki! Jim was married before. He says he's married to a much better person now!

I've got a haircut and color today. Gotta run!

Yes, I can find it -- actually I always could, but just could never find it in the single serving "tube" packages! You know me, I had to gripe about something! :lol: I make a pitcher every night, either of tea or Crystal Light and the lemonade and RR are our favorites.

Just stopping by,
I make a pitcher for work everyday of Crystal Light. Orange Pineapple and Orange Strawberry Banana are my favorites. Just thought I'd put my 2 cents in.....LOL

Stacey

Oh...I thought you couldn't find any anywhere. I've never seen the tubes. I'm out the door for some pampering.

hi there. i just cooked a "country" lunch for us and we'll take lo's along with a rose bouquet to my mil later. we're just working around the house now. nothing exciting going on here.

niki, i'm a prison break fan, too. curtis stopped watching it last season but is back into it now. i had to do some major catchup for him. lol

vickie, congratulations. l.6 is a great loss. you're right. if we could lose that every week, we'd all be happy chickies. and also congratulations on not stress eating. that's a biggee and i appreciate what you did. i used to fret over my pets, too. i totally understand.

kathy, congratulations to you, too. you're doing great. i'm proud of you for going to the gym so early. that took oomph.

stacey, school starting is a biggee with most parents, isn't it?

it was busy here for awhile today, wasn't it? wish i'd been here then.

i miss melissa.

Good day
 

Hi: It is a good day, is it not? Hope all are enjoying the last few days of warm days and looking forward to the next season. I got home from Ottawa and darn I was going to call Saundra and wouldn't you know it I did not know her last name. She had mentioned we should get together sometimes. We were kept busy though, as our son had us helping him move to Kanata. You would know that area Frouf.

Frouf, try not to worry no one is going to care whether you have lost weight (except yourself I guess) Others will not even notice. I find everyone is so concerned about themselves they don't even notice other people that much.
We took our daughter and family out last night for supper and she was saying that her sister-in-law was going on a Cruise (paid for by her Mother) and was so upset as she felt so fat. She almost did not want to go.
Just be yourselves Froufie and everyone will love you. You have a wonderful sense of humour. :D

Vicki, just try and sail through menopause. It is such a relief to have the monthly over with. I remember I was teaching night school when I was going through it and people would ask me if I had just come home from Florida as my face would get so red. I would just excuse myself and step outside in the frosty cool air and then come back in. We used to all laugh about it.
To be honest I had the easiest time, I am sure some do not.
Hope little Cassie is feeling better.

Sandra my dear friend I am amazed and thrilled at your weight loss. The Dr. refuses to give me any pills. I do have A Fib. which is under control so I guess he does not want to cause any problems.

Kathy you are on the go so much, I guess the fat just falls off of you. You should look good at the weight you are. Congratulations.

When I was in Ottawa I could read but could not post. I notice that Saundra has not posted, and that is unusual. Maybe I missed it somewhere that she was going to stay longer in Picton.

Stacey, I had to laugh at you looking forward to Labour Day. I used to hate it, I loved the kids at home. Actually mine were 8 years apart so I had it easy. My poor sister used to say she never got invited anywhere with her 2 little ones (they were a handful)

Tejas, you are a neighbour of mine, I live in the GTA, East. Welcome to this board, this group of ladies are wonderful. Guess you have found that.
I am not sure about that SANDRA though. JUST KIDDING, she is an :angel: I have known her as a cyber friend for a time now and she is a great gal. I guess you know all that though eh? Congratulations on your coming wedding.

Melisa, it is not an easy time for you now, but this to will pass. :hug:

Congratulations to the gals that lost weight this week. I am sorry to say I just stand still. Oh well, better days ahead. (I hope) I am keeping track of my points on my palm pilot and that may help. I try and eat mostly core foods but I do get side tracked.

Niki hope you are having fun with the money from the E bay earnings. I have never gone on E bay.

Well good folks I am leaving again tomorrow for a few days to the cottage. Those of you who saw pictures of the cottage and beach can think of me there.

Waving goodbye to you all.
Rose

Aw!!! Thanks Sandra! :hug:

I'm actually at home "sick." I'm not sure what's going on with me...I thought I was getting a sinus infection but so far it's a no go. I'm sinusy, congested, feeling super, super tired and a little dizzy, plus some stomach ickiness. My last appointment today got cancelled so I asked if I could leave early. Class starts tonight so I'm going to get in a nap before I have to go do that. I'm looking forward to it though.

Vickie, I'm so glad that Cassie is okay. That is so scary and you know I understand about crying over pets. I cried when I left Murphy at the groomer's that one time. :o CONGRATS on your loss!!!! I'm so proud. :cp:

Kathy, way to go on exercising this morning. I'm really impressed.

Sandra, your "country" lunch sounds good.

Rose, I hope that you have a nice time at the cottage.

I'm going to nap now friends. :faint:

rose, i was surprised when my doctor suggested diet pills for me. but i thought (what the hey?) i do know that diet pills don't work unless the one taking them lets them. i've taken diet pills before with no weightloss. i am very excited about losing weight this time. life is good.

have fun at the cottage. i miss you already.

melissa, i hope you feel better after your nap. what class will you be taking? thanks for reminding me about lunch. i need to go post it on the menu.

I'm still working on my master's you know. It is "Pastoral Care of Adolescents and Children," in other words counseling teenagers. :)
Thanks for missing me, that made me feel good. And CONGRATS again on your loss. I just can't get over how great you're doing.
