Woohoo right after i typed that i went outside to check because earlier my dog was barking and there it was waiting for me on the doorstep!! so tonight im goign to go shopping and sunday i will make food and monday i will start my chaleneges and doing it yay!

Sarah: I think I did the 6 week body make over a few years ago. I just wasn't ready to commit. I had to reach 300 before I decided to try again. I think it was a good plan. I just didn't stick to it. I threw it away when I was cleaning out my closet. I would love to have all the money I've wasted on trying to loose weight. It was always ME that failed. I just didn't stay focused.
Enjoy your walk with your furrbaby.

Sarah:

YOU GO GIRL

I am here!! All is well.
Hubby and I have been at it in a quiet war of wills but he seems to be coming around to the wiser side, LOL!!!

I broke out in hives this morng and took a bendryla nd then I napped but DD kept climbing all over me. I asked her to leave about a hundred times. She then told she just loved me to much to go......brat>>>connned me and it worked. i did the farmers market til noon. I have a friends daughter for the nihgt. She is a sinlge mom wioht no family to give her a break. I take her daughter once a year for a weekend. Good kid. We were preggers together.
Sunday School christmas lunch tomorrow and then Avon follow up calls. Mega orders to put in online.
I am clearing tables a wedding in town at 6:30, our church is catering. I cant wait to see dresses etc.

Food has been random. It is the least of my worries this week. No binging but content is not great.
HUGS ladies.

Wow, Everyone has been on this weekend. I don't think I have read this much in a long time. I did weigh in, but we had pizza yesterday for dinner. I did not gain, but I did not lose either (I think it is the salt). I stayed op today, and have had 80oz of water. Did not exercise, but went to work, had a pretty quiet day. Plenty of walking(and sitting) Have to run and get kiddie ready for Sunday!

Hi, Does anyone have a family of five to loan me? Because i just went to the grocery store and i bought enough food for them.

Sarah: I'll give you my 27 year old son. He also loves to sleep a lot...LOL
He eats like a big man but he's a 155lb'er Just send a self adressed envelope
and he all yours...

Upswife: That water will pull that sodium out. Just don't get discouraged.
You'll really drop next time. I ate pizza also.

Hello everyone! I was wondering if I could join you, I am currently at about 205- I have been going up and down a few pounds, the closest I have gotten has been about 203. I have just been stuck at a few pounds above that 200 lb mark. My goal before the new year is to hi 190 but I know that hitting 199 would be a major milestone and would give me the motivation to drop the last 30+ pounds.

I started LA weight loss a little over a month ago and I have lost a little over 16 pounds but the last couple of weeks, I just CANNOT seem to get any lower. I have been kicking my own butt with exercise the last few days and I haven't noticed a change yet.

Debbie, Ill take him! Is he cute? perfect age, perfect sex, and he will eat my cooking Where do i send the envelope?

Sarah, I totally understand what you are saying.
Once a month I give myself a lazy Sunday.
Just the same I stay in bed, and sleep and/or watch movies entire day. I allow myself to veg out yet not eat during that same time.
The rest of the days I make a plan: how? during the week starting with Wednesday I ask myself what are my "must do" things like cleaning and other choares. Then I outline when i plan to do them, next step I figure out a set of friends I want to go do something with, and preplan that. This way I have a reason to get out of bed on the weekend.
There also helpful challenge threads like a 21 day, I don't think it will be a bad idea to give yourself a challenge to get up and get dressed by a certain hour for 21 days. As they say, after 21 days it becomes a habit...
Good luck and I'd be happy to tell you ore.
I am alone myself, but have quite a big number of married friends, it is painful to see them, yet I know one day when I loose the weight i can too be with someone. I've been with a few great man, and one of them is my ex, who is just a friend. If I'd started this back then, may be he would not be waiting for his Russian Bride now (fyi we are both russian)
CBETA
p.s. i saw him today... it is sad, i can see he cares and missess but my weight is turning him off.... :-( (may be I am wrong, but I'd like to believe that was the only problem that lead to the series of others, such my innability to wear sexy clothing or take a long walk in the park and ect.)

Hi lucky! congratulations on your 16#s lost you will be under in no time! keep working at it! your body probably is just gaining more muscle while losing fat because you are working out so its kind of balancing out. but building muscle is good :smile:

Well i dont have ANY friends so its hard for me to make plans, I have one friend that i dont realy like though. I dont like many people. You shouldnt worry about that guy, if he is worried about your weight he should try to support you and be with you and try to help you. Because working alone is a lot harder than having someone help you, and it takes longer. Well when you get The body that you want and feel good about yourself and sexy, he will look at you and want you back, and at that time you can tell him hes shallow. because really the only difference between a friend and a boyfriend is sex, so he cares about you but wont.... you know... or .do anything physical because hes not attracted to you. So when he is you can just tell him that you want to just be friends because its worked out so far. Ive tried waking up in the morning, its hard. im sorry i go on rants sometimes and say things that dont make sense. im probably saying m ean things about him that will upset you or someone else and i dont even know him so just dont worry about it.

I hear you.
If you have 1 friend that you do not even like, I think it is a perfect time to find some new ones. Seriously. 1 is not many, even 2 is not many!
i think you will feel better about yourself, if you are not alone... just think about it for now.
As far as him, he is not all bad, he is trying to help with what he can.
For exmaple tomorrow we are going mushroom picking. yes yes, a long walk... yet I know and I think he knows that he is the only person I would go on such adventures with. 2 weeks ago we went on a walk at the Angel island... he helps me get out and see beatiful nature, plus takes absolutely beautifil picktures of stuff and the best shots of me...

Cbeta, Yes i agree i should have more friends, but im picky and people dont really like me. But thats good that hes helping you and going on walks with you. I have NEVER had a friend that did ANYTHING with me. nothing like that anyway, only bars and bad things. or just hanging at home. No one ever did anything with me. My ex boyfriend was an idiot he never went out EVER. I dont think we ever went on a real date except for dinner once or twice. but other than eating we never did anything else together. no movies, no nothing. and when i do have friends they are the same way. I dont know.

Good morning everyone, We finally got our cold front. Our weather is crazy.
They go that big grass fire out, I'm glad. We had our important stuff ready to evacuate. Glad that wasn't necessary.
We plan to just veg-out today. Till dh leaves for work this evening then I plan a big cleaning on the living room. It got put off yesterday.

Lucky_me: Glad to have you. Congrats on you loss so far.

Sarah: Friendship can't be forced or faked. You will find someone who you like and like you, but just try to get out some to find them.
Dang it! ds not wanting to move. sorry...LOL
Somehow I always thought kids grew up and left home..Not
He left while he was married for 3 yrs then came home after his divorce and seems settled in for a long stay.


Everyone have a great Sunday.
