Hi PiC's!

Hope everyone is well today. I woke up and did WATP 2 miles :carrot: Then I went to have an adjustment and massage. My back seems to be getting better very slowly but I'm not letting it keep me from exercising!

Dee... I'm sorry I don't know how to put a DVD on to MP3. I'd like like to figure it out though! Sometime I want to put something from Sirius on to my ipod.

L2L I hope that you're feeling better. So many colds going around this year. I'm fighting one off myself. I'm taking airborne and zicam.

Curly, Petra and everyone else I' hope you're doing great and staying OP today! :)

Hey All,

I hope everyone is having a great night... errr day by now for most of you lol. It's been a good one here. Busy at work, and I managed to walk right on past the fresh homemade banana bread Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyy... I'm drinking my water again and recommitted to myself :)

Curley~ You Rock! Yummmm again lol.. that jello recipe is good too.. You wanna move to Cali and become our chef? hehehe... I tweaked it again tho, to match what I had in the house. Using sf raspberry jello and sf chocolate pudding and ff coolwhip (I can't find it sugarfree). It's pretty tasty. I'm excited to try it with the vanilla pudding tho. Even better for my sweet tooth than the sf Klondike bar.

TLB~ *giggle* I think I got it right ;) Have a great day and study hard.

Petra~ I'm gonna try the canola oil... it probably won't be the same, but hopefully will quell the sweet desire. lmao, between you n Curley I'm gonna lick this thing yet!

Val~ Darn... think any of the old gang may have any clue how to do the dvd to mp3 ( or know if it's possible)?? With some of the audio geeks there maybe someone would... I should visit there *nods*.. Keep up the awesome work GF. I'm so proud of you :)

L2L~ Nice to see ya again... I hope you're feeling lots better. All I can offer is big hugs right now... if there is anything else, just hollar.

Good Day to every single Partner In Crime out there!!! :grouphug:

chocolate & raspberry ? now that sounds really yummy!

ONE-derland
 

This is a quick fly by to let you know it is official. I made it to onederland.

I'm on call this weekend and I'm expecting it to be unpleasant. I already have to be at the hospital bright and early to see a kid (and I don't see kids) so you can see how it is starting out.

Mornin' Chicks,

I had to install a new motherboard, but I've got my balky computer up and running again.

curly.....Jillian's AMR formula is BMR x Daily Activity Score + Exercise Expenditure = Active Metabolic Rate. Is that what you needed or do you need more info?

Momx.....The pictures are awesome!

Jennie.....You are so close to onederland, you will soon be there.

Petra.....It is great that you take the time to share all of your research with us. Congrats on reaching onederland.

Greetings to all PICs. Hang in there. We are winning!

zoey

Petra congrats!!! That is so great you're now in one-derland!!! :carrot: :flow2: :balloons: :cheer:

thanks Zoey can u give me the formula for the BMR also?

Curly it is 655 + (4.3 x weight in lbs.) + (4.7 x height in inches) - (4.7 x age in years).

zoey

Petra: wooooo hooo 198 :cheer:

Zoey: Thank u so much for the formula!

Ok guys last night i guess i had a relapse or being sick & working this week finally got me.. but i laid down @ 7 and went fast asleep till today! But now I feel like myself again!!

Did an hour of circuit training and went hiking today with a friend for an hour!

went to GNC and got myself some PROTEIN POWDER!! some vitamin c. and cod liver oil capsules (arthritis)

LOL i forgot how good it feels not to be sick!! still have a lil bit of a croopy cough but just a smidgen... thank goodness i got my energy back!!

I had one crappy day! I got 10 consults!!! I actually didn't do one because the secretary didn't give me good information about where it was and I thought it was in a different hospital and by the time I got to it, the patient had been discharged.

I did have one neat experience. I got off the elevator on one floor, and the unit clerk there hadn't seen me for awhile and she said Wow! You must have lost 40 lbs! You look great! I said Yup.

I hope tomorrow is a better day. The law of averages says it should be.

GDay PICs !!

Hope everyone had an enjoyable Friday. The weather here was awful.. wind and rain.. although I was pretty happy about since I was stuck in side reading a tax book !

Petra ~ congratulations !! :bravo: This group is really pulling out all the stops and having some big losses.. I look forward to the day when I can do the same.

Curly ~ sounds like a good nights sleep was what you needed. Hopefully you get rid of that cough soon.

Zoey ~ :wave: glad that your computer is back with us !

Dee ~ well done in resisting the banana bread and getting your water in :cp:

Where are all the other MIA PICs ?!?! Hope you are all doing well and sticking to it!

Well I am off to have me some :hun: tonight it is a small pork chop, half a baked potato and a half a plate of veggies.

TTYS :D

weighed in this morning.. grrrr exactly 240.0 then went back to sleep for @ 2 hrs and got up and checked again and it was 239.0 :cheer:

Since i have been in the 240's since late august I am taking the 239.. if only for my sanity!! lol

Good for you curly!!!! You really hung in there for a long time and you didn't give up.

zoey

KNOCK KNOCK......Who's there? Well if it isn't ol' Angel-eyes!!!!
Its sooo good to be finally back! I've got a few more pages of catchingup to do but I wanted to say a quick hi, and Congratulations to Petra!!! Woohoo...Onderland !!!

My friend left on Wednesday and what a time we had!!! You know some friends you don't have to talk to everyday and can go sometimes months without talking to them, and then pick right up where you left off. She's been my friend for over 30 years (gosh that sounds like I'm so old...hehe) and we had a blast. Shopping was fantastic here for her, and she left with 3 prs of pants and about a dozen new tops!!! First day of shopping, we only hit 2 stores and we were gone 8 hours!!!! She brought a belly dancing dvd and some coin shawls and we were a shaking and laughing all at the same time. Thankfully she helped me more than once with the boys as dh was out of town and I came down with the flu/bronchitis. Not pretty and I still have a wicked cough. Hopefully Monday I'll head back to the gym and start up again with my weights. Food wise I've still been OP although Gail, (my friend) was apt to have a bag of chips and a glass of wine everyday at 4:30!!! I'm not a big chip person and wine is a no no for me.

Yeah for you Curly. It's about time. :carrot:

Good to have you back Angel. Glad you had a good time with your friend.

I'm having a freakish day today. I've only had one consult all day. I even went to the office twice and checked the printer and there weren't any others. It has me scared that I am going to get slammed tomorrow so I have tried to take advantage and do groceries, laundry, pick up the drycleaning, etc. while I had the time. I have Chicken Paprikash in the slow cooker. Hope it turns out good.

Hope everyone is having a good weekend. Talk to you soon.
