Well I am home after an awful week. Moms surgery went fine but her companion passed away that evening of a heart attack so I have been at my moms all week helping her take care of all that stuff. Too tired to catch up very much so i will be back later. By the way were is everyone?
Oh my goodness how awful for everyone. My prayers for your mom. Take care of yourself as best you can!
I am still here not sure where the others are??
Still OP food wise. But did very poorly on portions and water this weekend. The personel problems at my work cont. to get worse. Sounds like they might peek this week. I hope to start working out again this week. Monday's off to a poor start though!
I did fairly well in the face of hard times and i saw the 170's for a reward today. Mind you it was 179.5 but it was still in the 170's! I know it will fluctuate back up in the 180s for a few days but i was so happy if there wasnt people around i think i would have kissed the scale!
That is totally awesome!!! I think of where you were and to be well on your way to your goal! You are just 20#'s from your goal weight. Did you keep track of the inches lost?
Great Job staying OP its not always the easiest thing to do. Mom is doing ok just trying to get used to staying by herself. She says she is fine but I know it must be weird and lonely. Unfortunaltly i never wrote down the inches i started at but it was like a 60 inch waist or close to it and now its about 33 inches. I need some new pics to update my website i have lost like 20 more lbs since it has been updated. I never wrote down my weights and dates so that sucks but as long as i keep the weight off i dont care! LOL. I really wonder what happened to the other ladies???
Julie My deepest sympathies for your mom. Gosh to have to deal with all that.
Keep strong you are doing just great!!
I was doing just great then a slip here then a slip there and now a slip now a slip...
shall I continue?? I have not seen any upward swing of the scale but will be having carb headaches for a few days. Work is keeping me busy and so is the house. I am at work just popping in to say HI to all. so be good and I will be poping in again soon as soon as I get the internet back to the notebook!! Gave it to DD so she does not use mine!!
Hey all
Work has been ****. Had to fire someone then, as a result of a burglery we had 2 employees arrested. What a mess! I guess I could have been betterOP wise ate alot of fruit today from a fruit platter. Better that cake which is what I really wanted. Been putting in long days at work and there looks like there is no end in sight. UGH!
But enough whining
Sue Great to here from you sorry about the slip. I fear we have lost everyone again HUGE SIGH@!!! You'll be back on top.
Julie, It sure will be hard for your mom for awhile. Do you live near to her? It will be good when she has healed and spring is here.
Sue-I am so glad to see you! I thought maybe you fell off the wagon and bumped your head and knocked you out so you couldnt get back on! We all have slips just pick your self up and dust off and climb aboard again!
Pat sounds like you had a very stressful day! i think the fruit over eating cake is a big improvement and if you are going to stress eat then that is not too bad a choice. I hope everything is settled back down and back to normal.
My mom is doing well and she went to her follow up appointment today and they said everything looked good. She lives about an hour away but we meet about 5 days a week and spend the day together. It will take time to learn how to live alone but we will help her get adjusted. Thanks for the kind thoughts.
Good monday morning to everyone.
How has everyone been?
Had a so so weekend. PMS sending carivings thru the roof. ANd Winter has returned for a visit. It snowed all day yesterday. ANd I had to snowblow as DH has an ear sinus thing going on. It was all just wrong!
I am determined to turn things around at work. I just don't think things can get any worse. But I have thought that before. Well they say things are darkest before the light.
So I will get my water in this week and eat OP.
Julie how are you and your mom?
Sue howwas your weekend. I fear the bus is empty
I am here just not as often as i was since i have been so busy. Mom is doing well she is thinking of taking a trip to visit friends down there, wish i could go but the kids have school and they have missed to much already. I will be getting my puppy in another 2 1/2 weeks, we went to see her saturday. She is soooo cute! I am so sick of yucky weather! I want a nice 77 degree day that i can sit outside and smell the grass and maybe go fishing......
Boy am I with you. It seems like spring is so far away and then it will be gone in a minute! I hope your mom has a good trip. It will be good for her. Had another OP day yesterday. Except for water. Some positive things happened at work.
Great job on the OP day! I am glad some good things are happening at work you have had more than your share of bad things. I had a great work out at the gym yesterday with 20 minute on the bike, 2 circuits on the lower body weights and 25 minutes on the cross trainer followed by pool time with the kids. I felt great going home. Today I go to find out what is going on with my shoulder and if I will have to have surgery.
Julie Great work out. It is nice that you and your children are at the gym together. You are teaching them the importance of health!
Another OP day except for the water part. Boy your body sure does get used to things. I am holding on to 254# The weight is just hanging on a result of my feeling stressed all the time. I might not be getting enough cals too. SUe is a good judge of that.
I appreciate your posting here too. It can get pretty lonely at times.
I hope you don't need surgery but I hope they can help you feel better too.
Have a great wednesday!
Well they gave me an cortizone injection in my shoulder and if that doesnt help within 2 weeks I will be scheduled for surgery. I have a torn labruim and a partially torn rotator cuff. I am hoping the cortizone shot helps but she didnt sound like she thought it would be enough.
Hi ,
Well I sure hope that shot does the trick or at least gives you some relief. I am sure that you want to avoid the surgery, especially with young children that want to be picked up. How did you do teh damage? Or si it something that has just been getting worse?
So so day yesterday, I fell to teh call of PMS. BUt Am back in control this morning.
Again poor planning on my part.
