wrapup points:

Debbie: :bravo: :bravo:

Good afternoon everyone!

Cathy: I probably could afford the parking meter and that would be it. As long as I didn't get that creepy basketball player as a free throw in! I told the ladies once before, my weight loss is making my body look like wax that has run! :lol: There is only so much tightening when you have lost nearly a 100 lbs.

Donna: Good to see you today! Hope you are doing well!

Debbie: We are ALL very proud of you! That is terrific!

I got a good mile and a half walk in today with my poochie! He loves for me to take him and it makes me walk faster cause the little booger GOES! I also stayed on plan today though I got right to the edge and got my water in so it will be 4 for me tomorrow.

Everyone have a nice afternoon and evening and I will see you in the morning!

Faye:)

SUNDAY, The Poll...Celebrities...Beyonce from the waist down, especially from the Crazy video. For sure. She is looks so strong with great thighs! Chest: Maybe Penelope Cruz? I can't remember for sure, but I think I have the idea. Arms: Madonna today.

Faye, Donna, thanks for the greetings, I am going to send my photo off right now for cropping!

My current plan is just to write down everything I eat and calculate the points on it, I'm not ready to start controlling again. And to exersize. But today, Sunday, is my day to just stretch, no aerobics or pilates. So it's pretty mellow now. But even when I was controling my food perfectly I never wrote it down. So this is the big challenge. Write it all down!

Last night I wrote up a 16 week exersize and diet plan that I think is realistic to keep to. I am ready to do it. This is the first time I have really written down what I plan to do!

Being here influenced me to go write my stuff down! Thanks!

Good Morning!
Got 2 points for yesterday, water and op. No exercise, ds and I were very busy finishing the display board for his science fair project. He tested how fast several kinds of christmas trees caught fire from an electrical short in a set of lights. A 13 yr old and setting things on fire---what a combination! It was a lot of fun and he learned something too. Never let a Blue Spruce dry out!!! They go up in seconds. BTW, we didn't test whole trees, just branches.
Anyway, our poll--just give me Marilyn Monroe's whole body and I will be happy! Voluptuous sounds good to me.
My mission is to get my butt moving. I NEED to make time to exercise, maybe shift my schedule so I go to be earlier and get up earlier to exercise. Right now I stay up kind of late to have alone time, after my son goes to bed, but I guess I could do it in the morning. It's just so hard to get out of my warm comfy bed! When do ya'll exercise and have your alone time?

I have finally gotten serious about the weight loss since Jan 1st and am now back down to 226.5...woo hoo...although before Thanksgiving I was down to 217 so I still have a ways to go before I am back where I was working my way down to onederland....cannot wait to get to 199, well more like 198 or 197...199 is still to close....

Good morning!!!
 

I FINALLY got 4 points for yesterday + I even went to church!!!
Carri, so sorry about your dh grandmother.
Judy,That science fair project sounds like it was a lot of FUN.
I have not been exercising yesterday was the first day,
I have the walk away the pounds and some richard simmoms tapes.
I do not have my vcr connected up, but that is the plan for today, I am going connect up the vcr and get out those tapes and start using them.
I did not get anything done around here over the weekend, so today I have all the laundry to do , plus the dusting and vaccumning etc. etc. so I had better get to it!!!
Hope everyone has a wonderful day.
Donna

Good Monday Morning everyone!

Boy, I'm gone for a couple of days and you gals get chatty! Can't possibly catchup on everyone, so I hope you are all doing super.

I was sooooo good last week! And then came the weekend....dh and some friends threw me a "surprise" early birthday party. It was so awesome, cuz I've never had anyone throw me a party (like since I was a kid). I love mermaids, so they had an ocean theme and dh cooked (by himself!) over $200 worth of seafood! OMG, it was amazing! We had lobster, and two shrimp dishes, salmon, cod, chowder, crabcakes, scallops and rice......I ate sooo much, I just love seafood! I don't think any of it was particularly bad for me, but I did pack it in! So, I weighed in this morning and I didn't lose anything from last weeks angelic behavior. But, that's ok given the weekend.

I'm back to journaling all the food and exercise....so, I'm looking forward to a great week.

Well, gotta fly. Middle daughter is sick and I have to go get her prescription.

Check in later,
Julie
