Wow girls, thanks for all of the ideas!! I do have to do some research and have to cite some works...so I will be making a decision today!!!

Holy Smokes! I leave for a couple of hours and look at this!

Sorry I don't have time to comment a lot but it's really nice to see so many folks and our new folks posting!

I love my car dealer! He handed me a coffee as soon as I got there - milk and sweetener plus the Ottawa paper! They fixed a problem with the wipers that I wasn't going to mention. I just love personal service. Now if he's just give me that lifesize cutout of Wayne Gretsky for my bedroom, I could die happy!

I am definitely going to vaccuum my downstairs this morning and will be making broccoli soup for lunch. It's cold and drizzling and a good morning to cozy in! Lighting the woodstove will be my reward after I get some work done!

Catch y'all later!

Good Morning everyone!!!
Ruthie: You are too cute....Wayne Gretsky =) I'm glad your wipers are fixed!!
Kye - good luck on the paper!!
Princess - be patient....it will come off.
Oh crap...maintence guy is here to fix the dishwasher....see ya later

Avon calls done, a few new orders...7 kids romped for 2 hours outside, now playing with cars in the basement. Lunch is soon and then 3 nap!!!

I will make those breakfast muffin with some turkey,cheese veg in them. I need quick food when feeding the minions.

Breathing. I may have to pick up some decaf coffee. I LOVE the warmth, the taste but I dont need the caffeine, hmmmmm.2 real coffee in the morning and then decaf later in the day for the comfort. I do drink tons of water too.

HUGS chicks.

Hi ladies,

I missed you. I admit it. I strayed from the beach this weekend, but I have my feet back in the sand! I had a stressful weekend and it just kept getting more stressful. I kept my neice for my brother, so I had a 3 and 4 year old everywhere I went. It was hard, but if I can't handle that I don't know why I think I can have a second one of my own. I couldn't go to the gym b/c of my neice (they won't take them in kidkare unless they are your own). So, we just played outside when the weather was nice. As soon as I get a chance. I am back at the gym!

I weighed today to see what damage the weekend had done to me. But, no loss/no gain. So I can't complain. Especially since TOM should be here at anytime.

I hope everyone is having a good day!

Pioneer Princess -- Don't beat yourself up girlie!! Those 2 lbs are gonna be a faint memory in no time and you'll wonder what you were so worried for. ((((BIg Hugs))) You can do it. Increase your water today if you have not been drinking enough, eat your veggies, and just hold on. You are worth the effort!!

Well, I'm also kinda just flying by today. I've got a friend from Jacksonville coming up today for a few days and I still have to straighten up the house a bit. I have been op and plan on staying op while she is here. She eats very similarly now so it should be no big deal. I will be nice to have her here and to have the kids distracted too :D.

Hugs-n-love to all!! I'll be back around later.

Hiya
 

A quick dash through, I still need to get ready for class, I just got back from my run.....I wonder if anyone would mind if I went sweaty. TOM is a real plague right now, pretty miserable.........(don't need any of you guys wine, I've got plenty of whine of my own)

Anyway, hugs to all!

I'm really having trouble sticking to the diet still. I haven't cheated, but I think about cheating constantly. I can do this, though. I just wish my family could be a little more understanding. They invited me out for pizza today. *frowns*

Hey ladies. It's been a while since I have been around, so I thought I'd stop in. I'm trying South Beach again (and again, and again...) and I'm doing alright. Only day 2 of Phase I though. Hopefully, I can stick to it. I usually do so well then a week or so in, I'm back to the junk food. Ah well, we'll see!

Kyemom- The only idea I had when I read your paper assignment was society's view of women and their weight. Maybe you could argue the horrors of the Pro Ana community and the lengths women will go to stay in the public op of beautiful? For the counter argument, explain the health bens of being NOT a skeleton. I teach English (albeit high school), if you want to PM me any ideas you want to throw at someone, don't hesitate to ring me up.

The rest of you ladies have a great day!
