Hello everyone. Well DH & I are talking of selling bike :( I cant ride it with the way my neck & shoulders are & he hasnt had time to go get his motorcycle permit/license plus we could use the $$. A friend of mine told us that his Uncle makes trikes & bare Min runs around $4000. So we will do that when we get the $$. I did start a new job. Its an ongoing Temp job but I choose what days just have to commit to 8 hours. Its easy work but hard on the body. Im on my feet twisting turning stooping all day long. Last week I came home exhausted. DH hates it. He hates how I feel I need to work & that we made a booboo in the account & it got to this. Hes ok if he thinks I did it cuz I want to work & to pass the time but also hates it cuz I come home sore & bruised up. I bruise easily most of them I have no idea what I did to get them.

He likes my new business. I've been doing much better with it & am currently working on hosting an event on FB that is now over 40 business reps. If it goes over well we will have another before Christmas. I was shocked at how many people wanted to be a part of it. It went from being a thought to having 20 people joining it in 2 days & now up to 40. Ive seen other people do simular things but they wanted people to pay to be a part of it. I figured why pay? If everyone shares & invites their friend & posts in other groups it should get a lot of customers. I just hope it works out like that.

Oh I also found out from working that I need a belt to hold my pants up :) Nice to know that I have not gained to where they are to tight or anything like that.

I thought I would share some photos with you all. I love being able to see the progress threw the years. Sad thing is usualy when people lose weight they dont seem to hurt like they used too, not me I it seems like no matter what I do I still hurt. Some days are better then others but just so frustrating! Hope you all are doing good. And have a chance to ride! I think I will be selling my bike :( DH & I are talking about a trike so then maybe it wont be such an issue for me. Sad cuz I remember what I went threw with EX to get it.

Hi girls, well we thought we weren't going to make it to Sturgis this year but we did we took off on Friday and came home on Monday of last weekend :) Glad we went it was so nice, Tuesday they started getting rain and last a few days.

Dawn sad to hear you might be selling your bike, but hopefully you can get a trike soon and you will enjoy that just as much as you did with your bike. Glad to hear your jewelry and candle business is going good.

Holly I see your toys for tots had a great turn out! Its always nice to get the community envolvement :)

Tammy yes we are still coming to BBBQ but we are going to stay in Branson but come to AR to do the riding (no helmet law) and Fayetteville is only 80 miles not sure what rides we are doing on what days but we will roll into Branson on the 24th then ride on the 25th, 26,th and 27th and come home on the 28th. So ready for some vacation time! I will keep you more informed.

Well kept the granddaughter overnight last night she is getting so big.

Oh and I got news from our youngest - his girlfriend is expecting in March, doesn't seem that those 2 are getting along so I guess we will see how it goes!

Well better get off here, Sunday Funday :)

Everyone must be pretty busy. Been quite on here lately. DH has been offered a job in NC. He starts Sep15 BIL & I will be stay here till our lease is up the end of Oct. They will be paying for our relocation which is nice.

Yes it has been very quite.....

Congrats on DH getting a new job- that is going to be a big move and quite the distance. But warmer weather and less to no snow!!!!

How's everyone else doing?

Not much here just hanging out working and keeping Karly a couple nights a week and then at least one day during the weekend. I guess she thinks she needs to go outside so off we go

Congrats Dawn on your DH job. Hope it gets y'all out of the slump.

Reda, you and Carly sound like buddies-- I bet she has a blast w you.

Well I took a Jon in Memphis-- and waded off knee deep in overtime. It's a long story but a group of doctors split and their stuff had not been coded-- so we are weeding through it now. My eating is fair but my exercise is not. I walk a FEW minutes on my lunch-- but it's not much.

Yesterday was my 6 months since surgery. Since I started I have lost 80. I have 5-10 more... Just gonna wait and see where my body lands and maintains without killing myself.

DH had surgery Monday.... He is having trouble moving his toes-- so we will see how it goes.

Holly, Colleen, Sunster, Aaron-- I hope you all are well!!!

Gotta run (not literally)....

Dawn, NC is great but I am partial of course!

My parent live in Salemsburg & my sister in Clinton. Their area is very different then what we are used to & wondering if Mooresville will be like that or more of what we are used too.

Hi girls- boy didn't realize it has been quite some time since I have stopped by.

Tammy looks like you are pretty much at goal that is awesome! How is DH since surgery? Only 8 days and we will be heading to BBQ, but if I haven't said anything we have decided to stay in Branson, MO and take one day to go to Fayetteville and the rest will be riding some of the rides that we have searched online. We will be getting into Branson Wednesday afternoon, not sure what day yet that we are heading to Fayetteville but I am guessing either Thursday or Friday :) So ready for vacation

Holly I suppose you are getting ready to go back to the winter job soon-

It has been just above freezing here at night and of course its like really its only mid September to early for this crap!!

Well gotta go - take care

Reda,
My dr wants me to stop losing right now- just cause I am losing sooooo much hair... And now I have low blood pressure. However I am really close to goal.
I don't think we will make theBBBBQ. DH did have surgery- tomorrow is 4 weeks but he still has a heavy limp and bad swelling. The dr said it is "normal", but his physical therapist says it is not.

How is everyone else? I am pretty busy-- the new job in Memphis has me working a lot of OT the last couple weeks of month. I need to do it.... But at this age I sure don't like it!!!!

OH shoot Tammy was hoping to get to meet up but I totally understand- So who do you believe DR or PT especially after 4 weeks?

I wish I could be getting some OT it sure would help the pocket book :) oh well, not complaining one bit as I am loving my job and not having my phone ring all the time! We start shooting darts on the 29th I wish it didn't start for a couple more weeks especially since this weekend was last weekend for races and if sure would have been nice to have a weekend to just sit home and do nothing... but again shouldn't complain as this coming weekend we will be in MO-AR for the bike rally :)

Well I suppose I will check back in later-

Hello Holly, Colleen and Dawn

Hi guys. I've been locked out of here for months! I never did get back on with 2times2much. I had to reregister!! Even a request for help got me nowhere. So anyway, here I am. The summer started with lots of cycle riding! About 8000 miles. For anyone not knowing me--that is motorcycle riding!

I miss the conversations on 3FC. I have been HORRIBLE with my eating! I did so well back in the day... maybe with this new account, I should start a new everything else too!

Not that this should make ANY difference, but it still really bugs me when I had been doing so well, and had slipped up one day, posting my cookie struggle on a different posting to have someone tell me to "get over it!" It was terrible. Like being punished! I about lost it. It was all down hill from there.

Looks like in reviewing the posts from this summer that you have all had a very busy last few months. I have kept up with a few of you via FaceBook.

Hope to be able to join in on some of the conversations again.

Colleen - so weird to see you as a Junior Member!!! sorry you lost your 2times previous status. Hey when you posted somewhere else was it this forum?? I have seen this forum change ALOT over the many years I have been here, folks are not as kind and supportive as in the past. Some folks i should add.

Hello everyone!!! sorry I have't been on, just busy with work, and only have 1 day off a week, but still love the summer job, and I have only about 3 weeks left there :( but I developed new recipes which were well received, and have spend alot of hours in the kitchen doing prep work for the chef, because no one else would, but get paid well for peeling carrots :p

Colleen 8000 miles is awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D

HI Reda!!! I do like seeing your stuff on FB, makes me feel like it's ok that I haven't been here on 3FC much. Colleen too!

Tammy whoa 170!! with your height that is skinny!! congrats!

and Dawn is tiny with her 120's!! :D

I have gained, and I have worked out 'maybe' ONCE a week, for 4 months!! I have some strength and muscle tone but nothing near what I used to have. but good new, Hubster is on board with a no carb or low carb eating so I have to try hard to do the same, hard with the pastry baking job but I've done it before. Just sux to keep repeating the cycle, doesn't it.

We had a hard frost, 27 degrees one night, but since then awesome Indian summer weather! So still riding to work as much as i can.

I will try to keep in touch better!! I usually visit alot more when I'm trying to be on the straight and narrow.

Hi Girls

Sorry I tend to not be on much either lately, same boat here but no exercise, no food control, just totally off the wagon :( !!!!!
Need to get butt in gear as I will be in a bathing suit end of January and need to get a few pounds shed before then. I do believe I am going to start the low carb thing as well, but it is so hard, but gotta do something and quick.

Holly glad to hear DH is on board with you, that helps a lot.

Colleen, I only put like 6000 miles on this year plus whatever I have rode with DH, which seems to have been quite a bit this year.

Well Karly is coming to see us today keeping her from 12-6 so better get house picked up before she gets here- Sunday Funday

I suppose chips and onion dip was a poor choice for supper...made me think of 3FC though! Work has been a big stress.

Had a fun weekend of cycling, movie, casino and dinners. Next weekend is sounding like work! Leaves need cleaned up, camper needs winterized, and landscape blocks need moved off the driveway (and turned into a raised garden!).

in regard to falling off the wagon, I guess we should all hop back on for a hay ride!
