I woke up to snow covering my car this morning!! ITS NOT FAIR!! We had 80 degree weather saterday here and it was nice! I wore shorts!

My shoulder is ok they moved my surgery to june 9th. Im not really looking forward to it but its got to be done. I will probably be absent for a few days after so please dont leave! Angels is wonderful and a handful at the same time. I love her so much already! When I get to goal I dont know what i want to do. I have tried to think of something but I never have settled on one thing. I was hoping to be at goal by the end of summer but I am thinking that the surgery putting a damper on my exercise might hinder that. But as long as I dont gain I will be ok.

Well the snow didn't stick here, but is was cold. DH asked for a snow mobile suit to finish the lawn in. Well I hope you think of something totally endulgent. SOmething that you would never do for yourself!
I have started the Dr. Phil book again. Recognizing that if for right now I can stay the same I will be doing well. Get these 2 internet classes over. Things seem to be stable at work. Just need to keep things in perspective. The personell issues are the worst.
ANd I get too worked up over them.

Sorry about the surgery being delayed, glad about the puppy.

Oh I will be here

I have heard alot of people say that even if they dont like DR Phil that his book has alot of good points. I personally have not read it. I hope it does good for you! Have to take DH to the drs today he lifted too much weight last week doing squats and now he can hardley walk. I hope he didnt tear his ACL. IT wouldnt work for me to have shoulder surgery at the same time he has knee surgery! I wish you a warm and wonderful day!

No that definately would be a bummer! But its great that you both have been working on getting healthy!
2 more weeks and I am on a much needed long weekend! One of my course wraps up next week and teh other the week after!
Cannot wait

Hey there chickie! It has been hectic here this week between the hubby milking his leg for all its worth and trying to help my mom get all her stuff in order and trying to fit in the gym and grocery shopping I am on the go alot! I am so looking forward to the kids being out of school because then I dont have to plan my life around dropping them off or picking them up from school!

Speeking of school how is classes going? Any big plans for summer?

Hey girl! I love your avatar. School is 2 weeks out! Cannot wait till it's over. I hope this summer will just a time of redirecting some energy towards health. But other than a few vacations. nothing grand. How is DH knee?

DH is being a big baby and can find the strength to do the things he wants but if I want to do something his knee hurts too much! I am headed to the gym tonight then got to come home to make something for dinner but I am not sure yet what I am going to make. It was very nice here today not too hot and not too cool! I am looking forward to swimming and playing in the pool tonight.

Ok girls I am not totaly lost. I have been here but not here if you know what you mean. i have not even lurked. No time.

Julie I am so proud of what you have done you are my IDOL!!! half plus your body weight gone!! I will check out the pictures. OnePhatMan lost huge amounts of weight and so did another person that I know the other man was going to have plastic surgery but his doc told him that it would reabsorbe. I thinkk that has a lot to do with ifyou exercise or not.

Pat I was so afraid that i would have lost you from hanging in here. I am so glad that julie did keep you company. I hope to be around much more. swimming is back running. so there is much down time for me. I have internet on my cell phone but do not know how to use it. maybe I can learn and spend that hour chatting in htere!! I do have my note book but OMG how dumb can one get?? I erased one of my drivers and now I can not get it to work!! I do not have backup of them so it is a vicious cycle!! way to funny. I should be crying.

so girls tell me where you have been this last few months???

I am ranging about 215-220 15 down from the begining of the year.

Welcome back Sue!! I was afraid we were going to abandon ship! I will be absent for a while next month so Pat will need someone to keep her company since I will be having shoulder surgery. I am enjoying the warmer weather and finding less time for the computer but i try to catch up at least every other day because it helps keep me focused. Please keep posting!

Hello all
Sue I was worried! Glad you are back. Julie has been great!. Isn't her loss awesome. Check out her pictures too!

Hey Julie, The warm weather sure is a godsend. I am almost done with my class. Then vacation!

Hey Pat did I tell you that my hubbys leg wasnt just sprained? It was actually a stress fracture in the tibia! I told him not to go overboard with the weights but he didnt listen....

Hey all
This is the last day of my class! Can't wait til it's over.
Boy Julie, I hope Dh is OK!
Now Sue where the heck did you go?
Looking to get on some track somewhere this week
Have a great weekeend

Sue???? Where did you go again!!

Hubby's leg is feeling much better and wont use the crutches anymore even though he is supposed to be on them for 2 more weeks. My surgery is 2 weeks and counting. My friend called tonight and her husband who is in Bagdad call her from the hosptal today. His group got hit by enemy fire and he has some cuts but not bad enough to send him home but they lost 2 of his crew and 2 more are hurt enough to be sent home. ITs been really busy here, my oldest son is turning 7 thursday and been trying to get ready for his party.

How is school winding up Pat? Almost over and then you can relax a little bit!

Good morning!
School is out and I am on vacation. The weather is supposed to improve(it has been cold and rainy)
I am sorry about DH not using teh crutches. I hope this doesn't slow his recovery down.
With all of teh distractions gone I have been able to concentrate on what not to eat.

I am glad your friend's husband wasn't too seriously hurt although I am sure she wants him home. My DH works at Fort Drum, so he knows people and families that are away or just got back or are going again. Very stressful.

Well 2 weeks away from your surgery. ALmost there! How is your mom doing? I hope she continues to feel better.

I am off to do some shopping.
Thanks for checking on me

Mom is doing great, still a little lonely when she is home alone but she is getting used to it. I usually go spend the weekend with her but I wont be doing that this weekend due to Jeremys birthday party. Hubbys leg seems to be fine and I have given up trying to get him to stay off of it. I plan on making cupcakes tonight but i am budgeting in the calories for one.

I need to start getting plans in action for my sugery and recovery. So far I just know my mom will be with me and i have a few easy clothes to put on after. Im glad school is over and you are on break. When do you go back?
