Hello Everyone -

I get 4 points for yesterday. My exercise was weeding. The back of my legs are sore today lol.

Faye - I can't think of anything worse than long term pain except maybe death. I hope you get to feeling better soon.

Cat90 - Something I do to focus my mind when I'm in bed and can't get to sleep is count backwards from 100 to 1 by 1 1/3 or some other number that you have to really think about what the next number would be. It works quite often. It's the old accountant in me lol.

Carri - I feel for you with the headaches. I get migraines and the pain is so bad you can barely stand it. I haven't had one in awhile, knock on wood, but I did go to bed with a headache the other night and got up with it in the morning. I think it was sinus and has since gone away.

I have some good news scale wise for tomorrow as well, but I'll wait until then. Take care everyone.

I was noting the days on-plan before I came to SC and then stopped once here because I was off-plan, but now that I am back on-plan I am going to start keeping track from where I left off.

Oh Julie MEN !!!!!!!!!! I can't believe that he has'nt noticed a difference so it must be a case of just not interested never mind

Good Morning everyone!

Faye - I'm so sorry you are going through so much with the accient and stupid doctors, etc. Good luck! I hope you get better soon. One side note, if your arm is broken, or even just sprained, its not good to keep it in a sling more than a few weeks. It restricts the blood flow through your arm, which will restrict the quality of healing. I've broken both arms 2 times each, and sprained each 3 times. I was a clumsy child, and even clumsier 20 something.

Ok, I got 4 points yesterday, and even had enough calories leftover (about 300) that I enjoyed a drumstick. I don't think I'm buying anymore of those though - I know my BF loves them, but he also likes fudgesicles, and those are better for me than drumsticks. Even though - I could do without either one. I'm tackling one vice at a time - this month is exercise. Once I get through this I'll see what my weightloss is like, and decide what else has to go (or be significantly decreased).

Food - excellente!
Water - wonderful again - you guys are very good for me, becuase I'm drinking water like its effortless this week. Usually I struggle big time!
Exercise - no cardio but I did an hour of pilates, and walked the dog, so I'm going to count it as exercise. I FINALLY after a year of practicing was able to do a seal and stand up at the end of the set. It's been so hard for me to do - I was happy, I did it three times last night, lol.

Have a great day everyone! I'll write more later - its a busy morning.

Hi all!

I got 4 points yesterday - yay!

I had a job interview today, but i don't think I'll get it. it is only a temp job - 18 1/2 hours per week for 6 months, but I think it will really suit me - plus it is 2 minutes away from my gym! The job is as a fostering and adoption social worker, which is an area I am really interested in and some experience would be invaluable. BUT.....it is really hard for me to find work because of my history of depression and long term sick record - people never want to give me a chance. And I attended the interview this morning with raging PMS and only 3 hours sleep, so i think i could have been more positive and sold myself better. Oh well - I trust God, and know he will look after me, whatever happens. iThey are making their decision tomorrow, so any prayers on my behalf before then will be much appreciated!

I haven't got time to respond to everyone today I 'm afraid, but FAYE i am so sorry for the pain and misery you are having to go through. I must admit i take our NHS for granted and we all moan about it here - but the trouble you have had getting your arm sorted is inconceivable here. I will keep you in my prayers.

must go - my cat has just sat his big furry butt on the keyboard, so he must want feeding!

Love Amanda x

Hi Everyone!!

4 pts yesterday!

Here are my Goals for the rest of the day:

I barely have any time!!! Where does it go?? But most of it goes waiting for this slow a*s computer to change pages!!! That's why I might only be on for a few minutes worth of typing, but it takes like 45 minutes in between typing, trying to save it and paste it on microsoft word, aol cutting off 3 or times... by the end of that I may have did one post!! Stupid computer and AOL!!

Well I gotta get to doing something! Quick Comments and I gotta run!!


Julie *~* Sorry about your Dad! I don't have too much to really say on that because I don't want to offend you or overstep my boundaries. But trust me, that's how it is with family and friends....they don't ever recognize how much weight you lose, unless they are honestly sincere about it! Hardly any of my friends said one word when I went to TX. But he is your dad, and he'll be gone soon, you just have to love him for who is is...right??

Amanda*~* On your pts!! on your job!! BTW You are ALWAYS PMSING!!!

Nefertiti*~* Congrats on your Pts!! Take care &

Beth*~* I'm in the Myrtle Beach area. I may be wrong, you might not be that close!! But I thought I heard someone say that Columbia was an hr away! Who knows with me!! on your Pts!!

Cat90*~* GET SOME FRIGGIN SLEEP ALREADY!!! :LOL: :ROFL: :LOL: I got it!!! Knock your self in the head really hard with a frying pan!! Nah, that probably wouldnt work either!

Satine*~* Glad you are feeling better! on your pts!! 3 is still great!! Can't wait to see your loss!

Faye*~* I am so sorry to hear about that crummy doctor and all of the things you are going through because of you getting hurt in that stupid freaking store!!! They should be apologetic and pay for everything you ask! It's obvious that you arent faking, and they are just a bunch of a**holes!!!!

Have a Great Day!!! Bye everyone!!!

I have decided to fire my attorney and hire JAYMI!

Bonni: Thanks for the info on the sling. I usually don't wear it during the day and not overnight anymore just when it is hurting and I wear it shopping or when I know I am going to have to use is in some way.

Julie: Why did he come see you or was it to see the kids? I am sorry it is strained and has not been a nice visit but I guess we all have at least one pain in the butt relative and we all know who mine is.....

Amanda: I prayed before I posted to you so if it is God's will than you will get a call tomorrow! Wishing you much luck!

Beth and Carri: We are waiting with bated breath on your losses!

Have a good night everyone!
