Hello Vixens! Everyone having a good week-end so far?

Deanne - Thanks for sharing the experience! I can't wait now, I want these clothes to be here, between my hands, so that I can look at them as a constant reminder! I'm sure it can work better than just knowing that "someday, I'll have these clothes".

Diane - Welcome in! I hope you can drop the pounds you wish to drop for the baby showers

Little lesson of the day: next time that I go at the restaurant, I need to check the size of their salads first. The one they served me as <i>entrée</i> was HUGE, and I couldn't even finish my main meal after that (fortunately, said meal was a piece of duck, so it's not like I forced myself to gobble down French fries). I couldn't even squeeze a dessert in my stomach, which tells a lot

Talk to you later Deanne.

Kery- Duck? i dont think i have ever tried it. Yea when i go to restaraunts ive noticed those salads are getting bigger and bigger. and you have to have dessert, what did you have?

I think i may be able to leave, someone is coming to fill in, yay im so excited. I am starving i think i may have boston market.

Well if i dont say bye later, bye for now

Jessica

Oh I bet Jessica...you know you were callin us hoes!

Love,
Deanne

lol your crazy deanne.

Does this mean our next thread will be called Curvey Hoes?

Jessica - I didn't have dessert, actually My BF and I anyway needed to depart earlier, as we had friends coming over and taking + eating a dessert would've made us late (with said friends waiting at the door under the rain). So this plus the lack of hunger gave me a good opportunity to not eat an ice-cream or something. I didn't even <i>want</i> one, in fact, which was a nice feeling.

DUCK!!! I owned a pet duck.... she was killed in feb by a fox
I won't rattle ya too much Kery... but she was our family pet..... the best pet I ever had...
reminds me of the afflec commerical.....

We went to see the amityville horror and it was very scary. I jumped out of my seat twice..

Hey curvy hoes...oh, i mean VIXENS...

Last night when I was posting, something was wrong with the thread on my screen. Some of the posts werent showing up. Anyway, I missed what Kery was saying. So, Kery, that must've been a HUGE salad!! At least you didnt eat those french fries...or dessert! See, so it was a good thing. That poor poor duck. Ducks are sooo cute!!

Ok, how did everyone do on their eating yesterday??

Love,
Deanne

Oh yes Deanne, it was a huge one. I really didn't expect such a size, I thought it'd be some kind of small mixed salade, some lettuce, one egg, a few bits of ham and cheese, nothing more. Yuck. Even though it was a salad and it was very tasty, I still have the same feeling that I had when binging on packs of cookies and other things like that. I think I don't like feeling that full!

Good morning Vixens....brrrrrr it is cold here this morning in Texas very unusual for this time of the year.

Today is a combined birthday party for my 3 yr. old and 14 yr. old Grandsons. My daughters husband has a huge family and they celebrate everyones birthday big time. There should be around 50 or more people there. I come from a nearly non existent family, my parents died when I was 6 and 7, nine months apart. I had an older sister by 12 yrs. so she and her hubby adopted me when I was 8 yrs. old. She passed away in 2000, so I felt as if I lost my Mom, Sister and my very best friend. We lived in the same town and were together all the time and that began my weight gain journey. She died of lung cancer at the age of 60 and I smoked also so 3 wks. after she died I laid them down which was the best decision I could have ever made but I packed on the lbs. I don't know how I got on this subject. Well anyway back to the party I have got to have some major will power not to eat a piece of cake since sweets are my downfall.

I did really well yesterday with my eating but got on the scale this morning and I am up 2 lbs. I know, I know stay off the scale and that is something else I am going to have to work on. I have been put on a new antidepressant and it is known to cause weight gain, so I am weaning myself off of it and going to see if I can go without them. I have been on several for over 20 yrs. and I think I will try to get off them if I can.....we will see. I had a partial hysterectomy when I was 21 but I still go through pms even at this age and it always comes close to the last of the month. My eyes are swollen and I have a big zit on my nose, of course that would happen right before the birthday party.

Ok I have rattled on enough this morning, have a good day everyone. It is nearly 6 am so think I will get up and go to WMart and do my walking before it gets busy. Yesterday those dang shoppers kept getting in my way.

Hey girls!!

Kery- Do you have Tesco brands in France? I know they have them in the UK but some of our stores import their products here. I love them!

Diane- Im sure you will do just fine at the party. Just have the willpower! All have to do is get through it! Oh and if you dont mind me asking, what kind of antidepressant are you on? Im on Effexor. I have been on numerous other kinds though. Its been hard to find the right one for me.

Ok, y'all have a great day! I think Im going to go get some movies.

Love,
Deanne

No I don't mind you asking Deanne, I am on Lexapro. I am so hoping I can do without any medication at all, time will tell.

Have a good one girls, as you can see I haven't got off my butt yet to go walk.

Hugs, Diane

Hey! I was on Lexapro almost 2 years ago. It didnt work for me though. I have heard very good things about it. I have been on Effexor now for a week. I really like it. Its the only antidepressant that has suppressed my appetite. It gives me this huge energy burst. Anyway, how long ago did you get on lexapro?

Love,
Deanne

Oh where did you get your pictures of the lady running? That is too funny!

Good Morning Vixens, well i am back here at work , i would much rather be at home in bed. It is really chilly here in tx. Yesterday all day it was kind of cold and then this morning, thats wierd, but we always get wierd weather here in tx, could be 80 degrees one day, then the next morning it is snowing, it happened on easter here lol. But we love it right Diane.

Well yesterday when i got off of work, i went with my sister to her hair dresser and just watched her get her hair done, then we went to eat at a mexican restaraunt, i really didnt like it too much, which is wierd cause i absolutely love mexican food. Then we went to my grandma's and i fell asleep. Then just went home and waited for joe to get home (my boyfreind). I didnt eat anything that night just didnt really want anything.

I was just wondering, how do you know if you need antidepressants? from the dr? or just the way you feel? Well i will be here all day, so looking forward to hearing from you all.

Jessica
