Hey All!

Melody, If I ahev one regret when I left my 1 st husband for my second was that I did it way too quiclky and I should have used the time to find out who I am and what I wanted in my life, So when I looked for a new relationship it was something that I wanted not what I thought I needed or should have. Take your time. You are still healing and by getting into a new relationship you can stuff some things away and not deal with them but they are still there and will have to be dealt with eventually!

You are doing awesome with the OPness!!! I think you are our OP GODDESS this week!

Hey Sue, Is it a cold or sinus? I have beeb dealing woth sinusitis all summer and I am about nuts w/it! Hope you feel better. Take care!

Hello Pam , How are you feeling? I hope all is well. I just have to say how much I love and respect your positive attitude! How is DH coping?

You all have a nice weekend

Hello Chickees!


Well I am Op, and I have worked out, and I am happy, and healthy, and have a long rainy day ahead of me...

I feel good about myself, I am happy, and I am focused on what I want...and do not want right now....I do not want another relationship...and I am trying to deal with the baggage I have left over from loser, but by being so dog gone happy, and satisfied with my life all the time it is really hard. I would just like to forget it, but I know I can not...you are right Pat, it will come out sooner or later.

I noticed my hamstrings are looking rather nice, and my jiggly butt is smaller and not so jiggly...I still have a "weigh" to go though...My boobs have gotten smaller too...not that I mind, they were too big anyway. It is wonderful, how fast your body can change when you put some effort into it. I am glad I finally got focused.

Well ladies, Have a great Friday and I will check in later!

Sue- I hope you are feeling well....Pam- I hope Lili didn't get you too wet.

Pat- Thanks for your advice, and your never ending strength!

love you guys!

Hey Pat......I did that to....... went from one Husband to another. Engagement ring in one hand divorce papers in the other. What a dummy I was!!!!! I was somgle for 8 glorious years after my 2nd divorce. I made all my own decisisons, came and went as I chose, had my own little house. Cooked when I felt like it and picked up dinner on the way home from work if I would rather. No one to answer to or for and never an arguement over what to watch on tv. I loved my life and made so many accomplishments. Friends came by when ever they liked...it was good. I had not wanted to ever marry again but God had other ideas. I like my life well enough as a married woman but I am so happy I had that time for me alone. Date when I felt like it or not. To have all the choises, make my own way, be independant, grow and grow and grow. It is a time I shall always treasure. Problems and all. I was a whole person, injured but whole inside when I married this time and God what a difference.
I have been on PremPro now for a week and my weight shot up three pounds , perhaps even four or five and the swelling!!!! Well I am not concerned I knew the old bod would have to adjust so what ever I have to do or whatever adjustments I shall have to make I will. The babies are wonderful and love the Mommy.Mommy adores them too. I look like the pied Piper when I walk out of a room.LOL All is well
Pam

Good morning all!

Well another work week is over!

AM I ever going to learn?

Am I evergoing to learn to control the mind screwing that I do to myself?

Am I ever going to make taking care of myself a priority?

Manage stress???

Well I am in control of the choices I make. I have no one to blame but myself!

It was the october issue...if you can't find it Sue i would be happy to copy the good stuff out of mine, and mail it to you...Just PM me your address...

Thngs here are good, a little boring..,but boring is good...I don't want any drama in my life right now.

I am doing 3 miles today strength training, crunches, sit ups, push ups, alot of working out to do today...

Hip is hurting...I know I have arthritis in it...knees hurt when I run, ankles are popping and cracking...I have a Dr.'s appt on Thursday, I am going to make them Xray me.That is the only way they will know for sure I have osteo-arthritis.

Well ladies...Have a great day!

Good Morning all,
Yesterday I got word that the bank will loan us the $!
Now we will wait and see what the appraiser has to say! As teh loan is based on the #!
This might be a reality soon. ON MY GOSH!!

And let me tell you about cake cravings! DIdn't cave. But I certainly would have if it had been available!

Ate OP yesterday and got in 3 bottles of water.
Still no w/o

You all have a great day

Melody you are doing awesome!!

OH! How the OP Goddess has fallen! I just ate a CREAM FILLED DONUT!!!! UGH!!!!:o Is there no end to the madness??? \

THis week has been rough...:devil: Satan has been tempting me away from my workouts,and I am having a hard time getting back on the exercise wagon. Last night I di 100 crunches, 20 push-ups, and 20 sit-ups...no walking or running....I am such a slacker.

Tonight I will do 3 miles if it kills me!

I got online last night, and talked to most of my creditiors trying to get myself straight. I went to the Housing Authority, and the lady said I was 27th on the waiting list!!! So that is like 3 months more of waiting! I would hate to see what it was if I didn't get an emergency voucher! But that gives me time to get my bills straight and put a little money back. Life may get better after all...

Pat, CONGRATS on the loan! You are hopefully on the downhill now! I am so happy for you!:)

Sue- Where are you chickee??? How is boot camp going?

Pam- Where are you? we miss you!

I will try to check in later!;)

You the OP Goddess are no slacker. You are moving that body.

Satan has been very busy this week! The carbs I ate yesterday, UNBELEIVABLE!!
My pants are getting tight UGH!!

DH got a corneal abrasion yesterday. His eye was so scratched that I could see the dyed scratch with my naked eye! He hasn't been too bad a baby.

The apprasal happens to day. I don't know how long before the bank has the figure but it sure would be nice to know by tomorrow night.

Melody, I am sorry that the housing takes so long. What if it wasn't an emerg!But you are right it will give you some time to figure out your expences.

Sue how goes it. I miss you.
Pam you too.

I got the 3FC newsletter and they have a new lo carb section that talks about teh various plans etc. Looks pretty cool.

Well another week is almost gone. I have a long weekend.

Pat, I hope your appraisal goes well...

Things here are bettr today....I only got to WALK 2 miles yesterday...the days are definitely getting shorter. When day light savings time gets here I will have to walk directly after work or I won't get it in before sunset.


I think I have gained some fat back...I really have got to get soem diet fuel and get back on track...the diet fuel really seemed to help curb my appetite.

Well i will try to check in later...Sue, Pam...we miss you guys!!!!

Okay...Where did everyone go???

You guys are slackin on me!

I walked 3 miles yesterday.....:)

PLEASE READ MY JOURNAL ENTRY....Loser called last night. He is such a loser. I don't know why he even bothers.

I may have rheumatoid arthritis after all....again read my journal entry to read the whole story! SOrry I am short on time...I will try to check in this weekend...

Love, MEL

Well, it's quitting time, and I stop in to see if anyone has posted...and since I can hear the chirping of crickets I know no one is here...Why so quiet? Where are you at?

You guys suck!:lol:




I'm just joking...I love you guys!


Happy weekend....:)

Asleep. I have been asleep for almost two weeks straight back to the Doctor...this afternoon in fact. It may do no good but something has to be done. The dizziness and weakness has been profound! Ah well I have been through much worse at least it isn't a painful thing!!!!!! I will let you know whats up when I do or when I wake up for real. I can barely see the screen but I want you to know I am with you in spirit. Daily.
Pam
