Hello everyone! I have been MIA again....
My daughter's car is definitely dead. They are using mine, and it is crazy trying to get everyone to work, home, shop for groceries, go to the post office to ship out pottery, go to meetings, etc. with ony two cars for five drivers! Argh! The pool water has warmed up enough for me to get in it, but unfortunately, last night the temps really dipped and it was too cold to get in today. I went grocery shopping and had coffee with a friend today, so I really did not have time. Eating has been fairly good. I have been feeling kind of blah, but so has everyone else, so I guess it is something going around. Off to finish up some chores around here! :wave: PEGGY: For cocktail sauce, take a legal ketchup and add prepared horseradish to taste. That is all the commercial ones are...ketchup and horseradish. |
Good afternoon. Just popping in for a quick hello. Eating today has been fine. I'll be having lunch soon. Made some sugar strawberry jam over the week end and its so good. And so easy to make. Since I'm the only one that eats it here it was the perfect batch with 5 little containers. Tonight is pork loin chops and green beans. Might also make some zucchini baked with whole wheat panko crumbs. We're expecting lots of rain. Well have a happy afternoon.....

Hi Ladies,
Sorry I have been MIA. I have been using every spare minute to work on securing things for my silent auction in a month. So phone calls and letters have taken all my time. Eating is so so. Still not 100% back on track. DH found ot his blook pressure is high so we need to get back to the gym on a regular basis. They are talking about building a gym here at work. But I will believe it when I see it. It would be nice though. Hope all you moms had a great day. We did, but it rained the entire day and 45 mile winds. Toni, so you sen tyour son my way huh? I assume he was going to Fort Knox? So glad you got to see him on Mother's day. Country, I am so jealous of your garden. I wish I had one. Ellen, your DD needs to find a car fast. That would drive (no-pun intended) me crazy. 155: :dance: another 3 lbs is awesome. Ashley, what a nice breakfast you had. I love the fingerprint in the food. Laurie, where are you going on vacation? You can do this Weekends are hard. Gym, your new job sounds like fun, you will be good. Determined, :wave: Peggy, you are doing good on this WOE. Your fish sounded good. Hope I didn't miss anyone, but I have to run. Be back as soon as I can. |
Hey everybody! This was my long evening and eating today was terrible! I think it may be PMS, but whatever it is I am craving salt and sweets......like chocholate candy bars of all things!
I am off to bed... hopefully tomorrow will be better on the eating front. I am still smoke free........that MAY be affecting my appetite, too. Have a great Wednesday, all! Michele |
Morning Friends! Well, I have not tried a single recipe I had planned to try and that frustrates me:stress: to no end. I guess traveling is not conducive to the SB WOE. The trip was such a short one it barely seems like we were there. Gatlinburg was nice, the wildflowers are beginning to pop up everywhere! I never knew columbine came in so many colors! The hosta we transplanted from Alabama took hold well and it was really pretty. We hung a big orange T shaped birdhouse (for the Univ of TN) several months ago...and we were elated to see a blue bird had nested in it! Emily was facsinated by it.
Michele ~~ Are you just going with :dust: to stop smoking? I know I really need to quit and I dread the thought! It is going to be really hard to do since my husband :smoking:smokes and so does my son and his GF. It sounds like you are doing great! :bravo::cp::cp::cp: SOLLY~~I have to admit that fish was pretty tasty! I am having a problem with portion control though. I am giving serious thought to a couple of things...using an ice cream scoop to measure my food and buying some cute solid colored smaller plates to use. Anything to help me lose the weight I need to lose. Breakfast seems to be the hardest meal for me so I am going to cook up some of the breakfast foods I have found on here and freeze them...just to see if that helps. Toni~~LOL, call me dumb but what are ww "panko" crumbs?:shrug: Ellen~~I hope your daughter's car woes ease up soon, I know it makes it hard on you. :stars: I will try the cocktail sauce you suggested, it sounds easy to make for sure. I also have a recipe Rice posted and I want to try it too. I have the "blahs" today....are you contagious? LOL 155~~ I am wishing you luck/or break a leg...whatever you say that brings good results when someone is doing standup comedy. :cheer3::cheer2::encore::encore::encore::goodluck: If I remember right it is tonight! I tried to send you a joke on here but I think I goofed. I am only a month on using "boards" and I don't know my way around it yet. I admire your courage...I could never do this! And another 3 lbs lost! You go Girl! RICE~~ What a blessed :val2:Mother's Day you had! I have this thing about fingerprints...I used to clean clean clean to keep my glass door free of any prints at all, but somehow they mean more to me now that I have a cute little redheaded GD putting them there! No One has said anything about how nasty my windows are yet...oddly before now I always thought clean glass was SO important! :mag: HEARTMOM~~ My weight is up too :mad: but I am not going to beat myself up over it. Mother's Day I :ink:pigged out on pizza (3 big slices):hungry::jeno: and I refuse to feel guilt over it...so there! LOL, just means I have to work harder on getting it off AGAIN! COUNTRY MOM~~ I think you know by now how envious we all are over your garden! :carrot::broc::carrot: Mine is tiny and in poor soil to boot but we are working on amending the soil. Emily has Pumpkins that crowned from the mound and she is excited over that. When you talk of your garden it brings back memories of when I was 16 and helped my inlaws for many years with their huge garden. I loved it and I miss it so much now, just as I miss Vera and Robert, who have both passed away. GYM~~ :high:Thanks for the compliment on the weight tracker, I thought it turned out really pretty too. I have calmed down a bit over the ADHA Dx but still reading everything I can get my hands on about it. Any info you can give me will be greatly appreciated. Where is BOB? Ok I have to get going, cleaning out my garage today for the new freezer (an upright) that will arrive tomorrow. I think it will help alot with all the new things I'll be cooking up! Have a great Wednesday everyone! |
Good evening everyone. I didn't get on the scale today. I just am not ready to face it. Isn't that pitiful. I hope you all are doing better than me. We're supposed to have a really nice sunny week end so I'm hopeing to get my herbs planted and some of my tomatoes out. I'm really enjoying the sugar free jam I made last Sat. I'm going to try while we're out tomorrow and grab somemore of the ball freezer jam packets so I can be sure and make peach jam when peaches are ready.
Peggy- Its so hard to eat right when you're on the road. Hop back on to good eating now. Sounds like your trip was fun. Michele- Hope your eating was better today and the cravings are gone. Solly- sounds like you're busy, busy.... Yes Scotty went to Ft. Knox. It was a wonderful Mother's Day..... Well good evening all. |
HEy Everyone,
Just saying a quick hello. As per the norm my work schudual is crazy. My sister is away though so it's peaceful. HAHA Even though my eating hasn't been grand..I somehow still have kept off the weight and managed another pound. Must me the busy schudual and going to the gym. That gym saves my hiney let me tell you. Congrats to everyone who is loosing..I'll check back later!!! |
Good morning ladies....I have been MIA again. Just have had one busy weekend after another. I still have 2 busy weekends left, my cousin's wedding on Sunday and then a birthday party the following Saturday. I'm so happy for my cousin that she finally found the right man. She just turned 40 and I know she was thinking it may never happen for her. Those of us who have been married for a long time might think lucky girl;)!! Just joking.
Still no luck in the job hunt-very frustrating, but it will happen when it's right. I have finally reached the 50 pound loss mark as of yesterday. I feel so much better than I did hauling around all that extra weight. I'm also not dreading getting a dress for the wedding as I normally would be before the weight loss. I still HATE shopping, but at least things fit when I try them on. I have to run to the bank and post office, so I better get my butt in gear. If I don't get back to the boards tomorrow, have a wonderful weekend.:wave: http://www.3fatchicks.net/img/tulip-...6/155/166/.png |
Sorry I have been missing again. I have been pretty down and just dragging. I have not thrown in over a week, and just don't feel like it either. There has been a lot going on in every aspect of our lives, and I think I am just tired...my brain is tired too. A vacation would be lovely. Ain't gonna happen anytime soon though.
Eating has been very good. I have not weighed, but I imagine I have lost a little. I will try and get back on more regularly as soon as possible. In the meantime...hang in there! :grouphug: |
Hello everyone. Just checking in. Its awfully slow here. And I'm lazy about writing. Think I might get my herbs and maybe tomatoes in there containers this week end. I just can't wait. Our weather is turning nice. We've had so much rain I think we're having some warm stuff this week. Eating has been so so........
Ellen- I know just how you feel. Its the same here. Chris- good to see you posting again. Gym- Miss your newsy posts.. Have a good week end all. |
I'M BACK!!
HELLO FRIENDS!! I've been completely off program for 4 months and gained 4 pounds. I've decided to get back in touch with all of you and stop this weight gain before it gets any worse. Feels good to be back. Cheers! |
hi everyone..sorry i haven't been around much...just been really busy around here...my daughter graduated from kindergarten...it was a very cute graduation..and she felt like such a big kid! we had a little party for her too which was nice. I was a bit disappointed today, because i weighed myself and only lost HALF A POUND this week!!! And, I have NOT gone off plan at all! Not one bit of cheating!!! uggh, and to think I passed up so many goodies this past week..especially at the party...so, I feel a bit discouraged now. But, congrats to those that have lost weight this week. I hope to have better news to report next week's weigh in.
Peggy, you should try my recipe for the spinach pie for breakfast..its yummy and easy...and one of my fave quick breakfasts!:-) I'm jealous of the pizza you ate! lol |
Hey, everyone. I wanted to let you all know that I have resigned as a moderator here on 3FC. I have found over the past few months that I am really struggling to find the time to do my mod job, and therefore, letting it slide. I felt this was unfair to the board and other moderators, so I have resigned. I will still be as active as I can on the board, but I am assuming Suzanne will assign this forum to another moderator.
I have enjoyed my time here, and been immeasurably touched by the friends I have met here. I wish you all the best! Ellen |
Oh Ellen I'm just sick and sad you're not going to be moderator anymore. You've just been the best. Thank you so much for all you've done. Please come often. And be happy.
|
Ditto Toni! I was just getting to know you Ellen and you were great as the moderator. Please don't stay away! Best wishes!
