Hey!! Angie, I've always gone by my mom's recipie of baking fish in a glass baking dish with shredded carrots, celery, lemon juice and margarine...plus whatever seasonings you want to put on it...turns out rather yummy especially with the zing of lemon juice. Hope you enjoy!! Down another pound, MAN!! If I could only be this good when hubby is HOME!! grrrrrr

Hey missy

Thanks for the advice on the fish exept for the margarine. No more margarine for me.. or butter. I haven't had any since June (except unless they unknowingly put it in my meal in a restaurant). I love my fish with lemon :smug:

I find it easier to plan when hubby isn't home too.. but I'd rather he be home.

Okay where is everyone? There's gotta be some military spouses out here!
We were going really well with this thread when it started.

I'm having a good week.. doing lots of walking, staying on plan, etc. Nothing to complain about at the moment which is nice.

Hope you're all doing fine. Just say hi if you're around.

Good Morning Ladies!!

Amber~ Wow!! That was very sweet of your hubbs to send you some roses and a balloon. I bet you were on cloud 9 :)

Missy~ Congrats to you on loosing another pound :bravo: :cp: Keep it up!!

Angie~ :bravo: :cp: Congrats to you on your weight loss as well. I see your weigh-in on 9-21 with the 4.5 pounds. Way to Go!!! :)

Hey ladies!! Sorry I've been MIA this weekend, hubby returned from the field and we spent quite a bit of time away from the house out and about doing things. (plus he kinda banned me from the computer so I would spend all my time with him, hehe)
Nothing to report here, other than I am going to start going to an aerobics class on Mon & Wed with a girl I sit next to at work. This will definately be nice to have an accountability partner, no excuses because I'll have to face her the entire next day!! We'll see how it goes. Not looking like I'm going to meet my Sept. Goal, but weight lost is weight lost right??
~Amber-AWESOME suprise from the DH, glad you were able to talk to him for so long :) Don't ya just love those times??
Everyone else, congrats on sticking to plan!! Keep up the awesome work ladies!

Happy Monday Everyone!!:)

I know Monday's are usually the big blah day because of it being Monday but I do hope everyone has a good one.

My hubbs and I are so excited. This Saturday night we're going to see Mariah Carey in concert at the MGM Grand. :cb: I went this weekend and got me an outfit for the concert. I'm really excited about this. This is the first time in a VERY long time that we're going out without the kids.

Everyone.... Keep up the great work!!!

Hi Guys

I wasn't on the forum all weekend either!! We were out walking and sight seeing most of the weekend, since the weather is still great.

Nice that you'll be going out and that you're excited about it :D
I hope you have a great time!

Missy
Let us know how the classes go! It's nice you have a buddy to do it with that always helps!!

~ Angie

Okay where is everyone!

Hope everyone's doing well. Keep in touch!

Hey ladies, I've been so busy this week, and the stress-eating has been a big problem for me, so I've gained a couple pounds back, but I'm not willing to admit it on my ticker, so we'll just see what sunday says and I will update it from there.
~Angie, LOVE the new pic!! You're so pretty!! :) I love your hair, it's gorgeous!
~Jenn, you lucky duck!! Have fun @ Mariah for me - take some pictures to show us!!!
Keep up the good work ladies, and PLEASE kick my butt for not staying on track this week, I need it!!

Hello ladies, I've got famiy visiting this week so I've been pretty busy. My In-laws have never been to Vegas so after I take my oldest son to school, I've been taking them all around town sight-seeing and checking out the strip. I feel like I have walked 20 miles these past few days. *hehe*

Angie~ You look so beautiful in your new pic!!!

Missy~ I can't wait until the concert. It is going to be so much fun. I think after the concert we're going to hang around on the strip and who knows, I might get dangerous and pull out my pennies for the penny slots. *LOL*

Everyone have a good Thursday and Keep up the good work!!!

Hi Everyone!

Hope everyone's doing ok!

Missy ... yeah stress can do that to you. I usually bite my nails which I HATE but on the upside.. I don't EAT them. ew, I know. gross.

There have been a couple of times I went up a few pounds after putting my ticker down but that drove me to get them back off. I did not move my ticker back up cause NO WAY I was letting that happen. My gains mostly seem to be from water fluctuations, mostly from not drinking enough. A couple of weeks back I gained a whole 4.5 pounds over the weekend just from not drinking it!! Took me all week to get rid of it again (that's the week you see "0" as my weight loss)

You'll get rid of the couple of extra pounds you took on. They might be water pounds. :smug:

Hey.. I know that disrupts things when people are staying with you! But the good news is at least you were out walking!

We got married last year in Vegas and I found even those penny slots require quite a few pennies at a time so it goes fast!!

Thanks everyone on the comments on my new pic. That's sweet of ya! :D

Anyway just dropping in to say hi before i get down to work for the day. Talk to you all soon! Keep up the good work guys! :carrot:

~ Angie

Hey ladies!! Hope everyone is keeping up the good work!! I am going to be REALLY busy this week ,so excuse me if I'm MIA. We have the MP Ball on Friday, and we are having a dual birthday party on Saturday - so I will definately try to keep you posted through this week...keep in touch!!

Good Morning Ladies!!

I hope everyone is doing good. I had a fantastic weekend. We went and saw Mariah Carey in concert at the MGM Grand here in Vegas. She was awesome. We had great seats. We were probably about 5 feet from her. My hubbs is a bigger fan then I am, I think he was about to faint. *hehe* Such a fun weekend!! :)

Missy~ We understand... Have a good time at the MP Ball. I know it will be alot of fun.

Apolline~ Glad to see ya back. I've been MIA myself but I'm trying to get back to posting more. I find myself more focused and doing better when I visit here.

Angie~ I agree with you on the penny slots. They still go pretty fast. I'm just glad not as fast as the quarter slots or even dollar slots. Before the concert started, we did have some extra time so we went over and played the slots just for fun.

All you ladies have a wonderful day!!
