Hi there,
Sorry I didn't post before. Just been going all the time as usual. I got back from my trip to Orlando to meet Air Force daughter, Tracy and her husband, Brett. I had so much fun, being never been to Disney before I loved it. But Trace ran out butts off big time, running from one ride and show to the next. But what fun, didn't do too badly when I came back at WW. Did some pretty good eating there and only had a 2.4 lb gain, which last week I lost 3 lbs so took it off again. Not too bad I thought for all that fun and good seafood, park food ect.
Desiree-Bags all packed now and ready to go? I am soo happy for you, that little one will be here before you know it. 3 more weeks, that isn't long at all and you will be holding that precious new life. I can't wait, yes come on back and update us to what is going on and how you are feeling, ect. Can't wait till you post again and let us know the scoop. Hope you are feeling well and everything is going great for you and you family. Oh yes, I would like your email addy too. Mine is
[email protected]. This is also for anyone else who would like to email me too.
Sylvia-Thanks for the sweet pictures of little Nico you have been sending. My gosh girlfriend, he is getting so big and when I compare the most recent picture to the 1st one, he is not so much a newborn and looking like the cutest baby I ever saw now. My gosh he is such a handsome guy. Oh my gosh, Sylvia, you are not only watching Nico, but your sisters kids too? My gosh how do you do it with a 2 month AND a 5 month. How brave are you?
LOL Well the good thing is that I would think the 8 year old would be a help in even fetching things, diapers and other things for you. Hope I am right and she is a big help. I remember when I had 4 and my oldest, Kelly was 7 and then there was Tracy, 5, Dan, 2 and than Alan, who was a newborn. Man if it wasn't for Kel, I don't know what I would do, she was such a big help and Tracy the 5 year old just caused all kind of trouble. She was sure a little devil though. Although she is the one who is a sargent in the Air Force and just got married and she has turned into the greatest kid ever. So hang on and you will do fine. How long will you be watching them all together? Yes I would say all the running around you do with them should count for some exercise don't you? LOL Thanks for the kind thoughts, saying I am a sweet lady. I hope I am. But you are a sweetheart too, helping your sister out like that is a wonderful thing you are doing and I know your family really appreciate everything you do for them and visa versa.
CJ-Hey there chickie. Loved your picture of you sitting in your new hot tub. I still say why didn't you get that when Ken and I were there? We should have gone out and got one right than and there.
HA HA So you are going to Frankenmuth for you grandaughters wedding? What a wonderful spot and you can be sure you will have one of those wonderful chicken dinners they are noted for. I just loved when we used to go there. Have a great time, when is the wedding? Sorry about your ankle and hope that by now with the help of that wonderful hot tub it is feeling better and you are walking around as usual. Got you recent email to me, sorry I lost it. One of those brain dead moments. But I will answer you real soon. You little brat! Almost DONE with your Christmas shopping, my gosh I haven't even started as usual. LOL Well good for you though, I know how many you have to buy for. Grandkids and all, me? Well no grandkids yet so much easier for me. Well hurry and finish up so you can rub it in that you are ALL DONE! LOL
sweetooth-Boy I'll bet you are sooo glad that your house is almost done now. I'll bet it looks great too. So now you have 5 adults and 2 dogs there eh? Sounds like fun to me. We have my 22 yr old son AND my mildly retarted brother, Jerry who has lived with us for going on 2 yrs here, PLUS 4 cats and a cocketiel bird who runs the roost around here, pecking the kitties noses if they get too close. I swear it is like a zoo around here, but I really do love it and wouldn't change it for the world. How long is the happy couple plus doggie going to be living there? Look at it this way at least there is more excitement in the home now. LOL Congratulations Peggy, on finishing you degree. With all you have going on, that is really great. Kudo's to you! Just stick with us and we will all be wearing bikini's for the holidays. We will do this together. Good for you with your weight loss. Keep up the good work.
Dreamer-Sorry about you having to fight Post Natal Depression. You can beat this Sam. You hit the nail on the button and I think that a big part of beating this is to exercise. I know from experience that will make you feel great afterwards.
I know it is hard to try and make time for yourself but please try and do this. You deserve some time to yourself, no matter what. Let us know how you are doing, we are here for you, we truely are. My gosh your daughters are getting so big, the baby is already 1? Amazing. And how old is the oldest? Isn't her name Charlotte? She must be almost ready for school by now eh? I know you are a great Mom, I just know it. Post again and let us know how you and you family are doing. I always love when you post with us. Miss you and love you lots.
Judy-Hey chickie where the heck are you? You have been MIA for awhile. What are you doing with yourself? How is you Curves going for you? I hope you are enjoying it. Post and let us know how you are doing. Miss you lots and lots!
Jello-Hey nice to hear from you. Lurking around or not, miss you!You hang in there with you weight. Don't worry I know you will get where you want to be yet. It just takes time, look at me been going to WW for like 4 years and only half way to my goal. LOL Was closer last year, but gained half of that weight back again. This time I am doing it slow and steady and I keep plugging away at it. You are like me, travel quite a bit and love holidays and family gatherings ect and all of that involves eating. What else is there right? But we won't quit will we? We can do this Jo, we really can with the help of our group. Keep on posting with us and we will get there I promise.
Kim-You too hang in there and don't let the weight gain get you down.
You just pick yourself up and start all over again. Bit by bit, you can do this Kim, I know you can. I know you have been going through alot with your hubby and everything else. But please take things one day at a time and try to make the best of a situation. Fight this Kim! We are here for you! Don't ever give up, you can do this. You are a wonderful person and we love you. Keep on posting with us and let us know how you are doing and sorry for all you have gone through lately. It has to get better for you and I hope it does soon. Take care of yourself and remember to make time for yourself always.
Julie-Hey girlfriend, where are you? I miss you, so come on back and post with us and let us know how you are doing on that new South Beach Weight Loss Plan you are on. Don't be shy now, just get in here and post and let us know. I hope you and Niles have lost lots of weight on this plan. I am sure you are doing great on it. Sounds like a good plan to me from what I have heard and seen about it. Get in here right now. LOL
Well better get going here. I got up early this morning. Like 5 AM, one of our cats, our orange tabby, Taz was beside me doing pushy pushy-that is kneading me like some dough on my armpit. LOL So I couldn't go back to bed for the life of me after that. LOL Have lots to do, going to Ohio with my childhood girlfriend and her hubby to where they camp. Luckily they have a travel trailer and we should be fine, cold weather and all. I just love fall camping the best, not too hot and hopefully not too cold. LOL There is an Amish city nearby and we will go there on Saturday for dinner and some shopping.
Should be fun, I am looking forward to it.
Take care guys and hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.
Love you, Sharon
