It's the Weekend, Chickies!!
 

Ugh. Up at 4 this morning for a bathroom trip. Couldn't get back to sleep, so I'm down here working on my second cup of coffee. :coffee:

What are your plans for the weekend, girls? :)

Good morning! We must be on the same pee schedule, Ellis.

After coffee and a good breakfast, I'm off to work in the Greenhouse this morning. Our cleanup day at the Church has been cancelled because of the crappy weather. Nobody likes raking leaves in the rain.

Lucy is hollering and I need coffee too. Back later.

my weekend hasnt started yet...i have work today :^:

Good Morning Chicks:)

I had the other bathroom scene :lol: that got me up early on Saturday Ughhhhhhhh!!also.

We got a thick fog this morning, along with heavy rains :yikes: not going out in this mess until it clears.

The cold that I had is almost gone,and it did effect my weight YIPEE :cb: ,as I didn't feel like eating the last couple of days.Down 2 lbs. Hope it stays that way until Tues. Weigh- in.

Good morning girls! Enjoying my coffee too.....just wanted to tell ya'll to have a GREAT weekend!

Hi guys!

I'm taking DS to the museum today to see "Grossology" sounds just what a little boy would like on a rainy day. By the way they are saying SNOW for us this weekend. Did you all know that snow is a four letter word! :mad: I have SOCKS and SHOES on! Hate that! :lol:

Any who - I'm down six pounds and feeling pretty good about it. I have to change my signature today. The meeting in Detroit was for schools like ours and the state government. They have changed some things and now my workload is going to double. Burocrats. (sp?) I looked at my boss (DM) and said - I'm going to need a lap top computer. :lol:

My friend the gourmet is having a party tonight. That means I may get a chance to see that cutie "bad Bob" again. :lol: My goal is not eat any sweets or sugar tonight. I may indulge in a few non-sugar goodies. I'm bringing cheese and red pepper strips in my pocket for snacks. :lol: I sound like a bag lady. :lol:

Hi Everybody!
 

Well, here I am, back on the beach, huffin' and puffin' to haul my beach chair because the few pounds I lost before found me.

It is sure good to see the regulars still hanging in there. Ruth and Ellis: it's especially great to "come home" to your daily posts.

I'm in one of those "getting ready to get ready" to go back OP modes. I will probably hang out on the ww board some because I really need to get back to the meetings and weigh-ins and I have no concept of portion control without counting points!

But, I will still check in at the Beach, don't worry. :cool:

Chris

Good Morning chicks! I'm not sure what my day holds but hopefully I will find something away from here. DH made me really really mad lastnight so I want to run away from home. But since DS is here this w-end I need to run somewhere that will amuse him as well! lol There is a Art Festival type thing in town but it is also 50*outside! The high is only 58 with winds. Where is my spring weather?????????? DH and DD were up and gone before I got up. She was reffin a soccer game this morning. Well I better get my shower and get DS up and hit the road before they return. Have a good w-end all!

Oh yeah sorry... Welcome back Chris!

Thanks for the welcome, Bamiegurl! Another regular...and my, have you lost a few. You are almost halfway to your goal and that is fab.

Wish I could send you some LA weather.

Oh I could use it today! Although I should consider it a break. We have been in the 80's and soon I will be wishin for the 50's. Thanks on the weight. At one point I was halfway but then I bumped into some sugar and it stuck! lol I'm back on now and ready to be a loser! lol

Morning Chicks.

I have had a productive morning. I am just sitting down to cup #2 of coffee, and a ham and cheese omelet. Yum! I found that I can handle the eggs as long as I put a little hot sauce on them.

I just got back from a 2 mile walk with girlfriend. Boy is it cold here. Its like 40*, the wind is the worst part. But we did it, and we even jogged some of it, we sure are adventuresome ;)

Tonight DH and I are having said girlfriend and her DH over for dinner. she is on Day 1 of Phase 2 and is confused on what to do. I am going to introduce her to 3FC tonight, and then I am going to offer her some strawberries dipped in Dark Ch. She is so excited, and so am I. she is down 10 pounds. WOW!

We are also going car shopping today, well browsing. and Louise is getting a hair cut today or tomorrow.

Wheww, I am exhausted just telling you gals about it. Good thing this diet gives me more energy!

Enjoy all your days, gardening, shopping, working, and hanging out.

Jamie

A quick fly by. DH is sitting in the car waiting for me to so we can go to work. Everybody have a wonderful day.

We had thunder and lightening last night with a downpour after having sunny weather all day yesterday. Wet wet wet this morning. Good day to work.

Stay beachy girls! :)

Happy weekend!! I'm off this weekend & I'm thrilled to be off!!! Ellis 4am?! I would of held it! :D
Anchor what's up with this crazy Michigan weather?! IT'S SNOWING AGAIN!!!:censored: I want warm weather!!!
I'll peck in later!!

Hi chickies,

Grossology was - gross :lol: but it was a lot of fun two 7 year old boys. It is the science of the human body made fun for the kids. Burps, Farts, Snot all that good stuff. I took them to Pizza Hut for lunch. They had PP Pizza's and I had wings and salad.

I've had socks and shoes on all day but I'm wearing sandals tonight! :lol: I don't care. :lol: I have a french manicure on my toes, I finished my new black and gold ankle bracelet and toe ring. (I know I have to get a picture posted) I have my new linen outfit from Liz and Jane's and dangit I'm wearing my sexy black sandals.

I was feeling pretty old this week because I needed to get glasses to see the TV. :lol: I have contacts but after wearing them all day I like to take them out at night. Well then I can't see writing on the TV. I have to ask DS to read the words to me. :lol: However DM informed me you're not really old until you need them to see far away and close up. :lol: But then I got carded at the grocery store twice this week! Not joking! I just about fell over. I said - you are carding me? Ha ha - hang on I have to call my girlfriends. :lol:

The last two days I've been short on veggies so Sunday I'm cranking the veggies. Wish me luck tonight with staying OP and hopefully seeing that cute dutch boy bad bob. :lol:

Hi Chicks!

Can I join the coffee Klotch?

so whats for breakfast girls? or do you just have coffee?

I have my 1 cup each morning with a 1/2 cup of Dannon carb control yogurt...I love this stuff!! Raspberry is my fav!!

I will also have ind tuna w/ salad or hummus w/ tomato and cucumbers or sometimes egg salad or an omelette w/ leftover veggies from dinner.

As for my plans for whats left of this weekend? I board dogs as part of my job and I have a 6 month old pup staying for a few weeks and cannot do too much as she is a Boston Terrier and wild!! My 3 dogs are exhausted from her :lol:

Oh, heck! Up at 4:30!! :mad: I must stop having a diet pop before I go to bed. :D

Judy, of course you can join us! As long as you make us all breakfast. :lol: Good luck with that crazy little puppy!

Amy! Carded, twice!? How old are you!?
Ugh, I hate wearing glasses. I try not to wear my contacts too often (did a little damage a few years ago), but I like to wear them if I'm going out. I HATE it if we're watching a movie in bed, because I like to fall asleep half-way through the movie, and if my glasses are on, I CAN'T! :lol:

Soon2b... snow! :yikes: You poor dear... my sympathies.

Bunna, it's been raining here for a few days, too. We needed it, though. And it's forcing me to get a few things done around the house instead of diddling about in the garden. ;)

Jamie, how was dinner with your friends?

Bamie, I hope everything is okay with DH now. :( DH and I rarely argue, but it's so upsetting when we do. Sending you big hugs, sweetie... :grouphug:

Chris, it's good to see you, hon! :wave: I am so with you on the weight loss/gain. :( I think I'm the only one here not losing. curses. I just can't get it together.

Randan, are you working today, too? Have a good one, hon! :wave:

Kellyjo, you, too!

BB, so glad your cold is almost gone! Congrats on the two pounds! :hat:

I'm getting so much done around the house lately! I've reupholstered two wrought-iron dining chairs, restuffed two living room chair cushions with feathers, built some more bookshelves... and a bunch of other stuff. :D
Maybe if I'm organized, my life will "come together", and I might be able to lose some weight. :rolleyes:

Hi! This weekend is pretty busy. Had a cake to deliver yesterday for a bridal shower. Daughter of a friend of mine. I'm doing her wedding cake next month. Then Orchestra practice.. and another cake. Today is fellowship at church which means mucho temptation for all the goodies. I made the no-pasta lasagna with zuchinni. It's in the oven cooking now. Smells marvelous. I'll let you know if anyone notices the lack of pasta...

IT turned cold here and is 37 this morning in Charlotte, NC. I had to bring in my plants. This afternoon DH and I are going downtown for Art & Soul. ITs an outdoor art show. Lots of walking!

Have a great day!

amy

Quickie this morning as the day got off to a bad start! :(

Right now I'm going to take a long soak in the tub and start over. It's raining so I'll spend the day thinking about getting organized indoors! Back later.

Good morning ladies!
I am now on my second cup of coffee....and the house is soo quiet (all my boys-dh included are still sleeping) love this time of day! I weighed in this am....and I am happy to report although I am afraid it is a fluke that I am down 1.5lbs since yesterday...is that right?????????? Oh, I will not look a gift horse in the mouth and go on my merry "weigh". I think I may have even eaten a little more than I should have yesterday....and those rum and diet cokes last night probably didnt help....Hmmmm or did they? Anyhooooo I just wanted to drop in to say buongiorno..and have a great day! Stick with it girls!

Good morning!

Sounds like everyone is having a productive, fun weekend! This has been the first weekend in months that we have had no structured activities planned, or palces to be. LOVELY!! DD spent the night at Grandma's last night so DH and I could have some time together. We went to dinner, then rented a movie and just vegged. Although the house was eerily quiet, it was really wonderful to have some time together. He recently started a new job and is working tons of hours.

Just finishing up a cup of coffee and getting my grocery list together. I haven't been cooking as much with DH's new job, but need to continue to stay healthy for DD and myself.

Have a wonderful Sunday- the weather here is Dallas is gorgeous today. :flow1:

Morning chickies!

I did well on the diet last night. I really just picked. It was all very gourmet but very carb laden stuff. I had few tortilla chips with bean dip and a tiny bit of pasta with chicken. Other than that I stayed OP with food. I do however have the worlds worst headache, I must be hanging a little. :lol: I mixed drinks last night - first vanilla vodka then wine. :p I feel a lot like this little green guy. :lol: Bad Bob made an *** out of himself last night. Glad we never hooked up. He came with a date and proceeded to get trashed. He was on everyone's nerves by the end of the night. I did however meet a single fireman! Who happens to have just turned 40 like me. A man my own age - what a concept. He's cute, his name is Tim and I just love that whole fireman stuff! :lol: He took my number so we'll see if he calls. I wore my new black outfit with the sandals. :lol: It was snowing on the way home. :lol:

Judy - welcome to the beach. Of course you can join us. This is a fun group lots of support and wisdom here. I don't drink coffee - I'm a tea drinker. :lol: I wish I could eat low carb yogurt. It has a negative effect on my body.

Kiko - Sounds like you are doing well. You must be getting close. Take care.

Everyone else - :wave:

Hey Chickies! Just got home from church. I was running late this morning and had no time to peek in. Now I am starving so I am on my way to the kitchen. I think I'll have a Bocca burger. Along with some veggies! I don't have any lettuce leaves but I have some cabbage so maybe I will make a cabbage burger? Who knows.

Amy...You go girl! I'd take a fireman anyday....oh the uniform! lol Just take it slow as you already know! haha Poor Bob! NOT!

Ellis...DH is still in the doghouse with me!

I'm off to get my sloppies on and get my lunch fixed. Take care chickies. Have a great day all!

I managed to fritter away the whole morning by skipping Church and soaking in the tub while reading my book - Olivia by Judith Rossner. Hershey spent three and a half hours sleeping on the unmade bed with her head on my chenille robe. Lazy doggie! She did not set me a good example for getting organized.

Harry and I went to the Long Horn for lunch - I had a yummy tomato basil soup and a ww pita bruschetta - all OP. He had the hot turkey sandwich with fries and beer so it'll be a light supper tonight for sure!

I'm sneaking up on having an afternoon nap - after all, the bed isn't made yet! Can you tell I'm having a lazy day?
