Welcome Almost there!!

Wow I can't wait to be your size. I'm soooo jealous. So how did you lose the weight? My sister joined WW. I may switch to that. I'm just counting calories right now.

On a grumpy note .....I had some horrible info said to me today. Someone asked if Nani, my sister, was my daughter!! Nani is my older sister by 6 years. She is alot thinner. All our lifes people have always thought I was the older one because I'm more busty. She is very petite. At 16 I was wearing a C cup while she was wearing a A. I really think this weight is making me look older than I am. I realize I'm getting older but SO IS SHE!!! It's one thing to be over weight its another to look so old while I'm there.

Well, I'm done whinning. But I am not a happy camper. I'm going to take a shower.

Kiwi

Good Morning everyone

almost there glad you are going to join us.

Kiwi don't let that nasty e-mail get you down - you know who you are and you are a great young woman.

Well I have to get busy now so I can keep my

Good Mormning Everyone

Almost There!!!! Glad you are here! 128lbs? Wow good for you! I have to admit it too, I am with Kiwi and a little jelous but I do understand reaching our goals and worring about packing on the pounds again. Sometimes when we get down on the weight chart the regained or stubborn pounds will only come off with EXTRA excercise we will support ya, however you have to get those stubborn lbs. off

Ivy: Loved the pictures..you looked so cute in your platinum wig

Kiwi - OLD? I went to your myspace pics and girl you do not look old! but I know how you feel, my GF is 5 years younger than me and she has a little one 3yrs old and 2 times these mean women asked me if I was GRANDMA ...like she looks like MY daughter..please...
You look beautiful, it will be hard to improve perfection once we loose all our weight girl!

Have a good day!

welcome almost there! This place is a great place to be. Y'all have already helped me a bunch.

I kinda stalled on the water thing cause I'm a wuss. My water bottle won't fit into my bag, and it's cold so I don't want to carry it. How sad is that? Luckily, my super busy days with class and work oncampus are over for the week, so I'll be in the room more. Come here water!!!

Good news...I've lost 7 pounds this week. 5 of them are the ones I gained because of tom, but the other two are all me! And that's without even really working out. yea! There's my motivation for the rest of the week

have a great day!

Thanks Dannie, I love Halloween and the kids always have a blast.
Welcome !!!! Almost there we would love a new loosing buddy!!!
Hey Kiwi did you see my pictures I? Just feel a bit awkward you haven't posted any comments for me yet? Are you ok?

Well I hope you guys enjoyed my family pictures.
I had a hard time figuring out how to input them

Its my son's B-day hes 10 today. I will be going to take cupcakes out to school to celebrate his B-day.

Take care,

Ivy

Good Morning,

Sorry about that Ivy. I guess I was too busy whinning about what that lady said.

Yes I saw them and they are great! You looked so cute in your outfit. I once dressed as Lil Bo Beep when I was working. I havn't dressed up in years. My daughter dressed as an Angel to take the kids out. I'm trying to down load them on Myspace so everyone can see them. I'll have them up by tomorrow I hope. Ivy why don't you get your myspace set up? I'm still waiting on it.

Anyway I hope everyone has a great day.

Kiwi

Hey, Kiwi
I can understand where you are coming from about hurtful comments
I just happen to have a father in law who thinks he is a comedian and I will never forget what he told me a few months ago....and he had said this same little joke a few more times in the past.. "SOON IT WILL BE FASTER TO JUMP OVER YOU THAN TO GO WALK AROUND YOU". Hows that? But hey now that I have lost a total of 32 pounds I have yet to get any kind remarks from him or my mother in law, and that hurts me so much you cant understand
My husband has even gone to the extreme as to say something like "hey have you noticed how Ivy has lost weight and how good she looks" My in-laws didn't even respond I'm just to nice and people hurt me to easily I just hide it very well. At times I feel like exploding but I never do.. I have always treated them better than my own parents with utmost respect. Now I cant wait to move far away so that they don't just drop in unannounced like always (they live about 10 min away) Shoot will never commit that mistake again my next move will be far north 2 hour drive...Is that too mean?

Sorry had to vent

Danni I'm not sure if you have actually seen what I look like or not. Unless you saw the picture of me sitting with my DH on the hay stack. Then you prob. saw that glamour pic. After that lady said what she said I came home and removed all the pics of me except that one. I tried to put up some new ones but i'm not a photogenic person so all the newer ones I looked huge!!

I am having a bad week. I'm going to work on my myspace.

Ivy you are looking great. The final results of your weight loss will say it all to your In Laws. You won't have to say a word to them. There silence is just saying "we noticed and we are quitely eating our words."

Your Magesty Scalewatcher, I hope you are having a great week.

Hi all
Thanks for welcoming me in your group. I signed up for Weight Watchers today so now I will really behave . I cant wait. I weighed in at 127 pounds and she said I should be no more than 120 pounds but average about 110-115 pounds for my 4'10" height. I am looking at losing 12-17 pounds before Xmas, thats my goal.
How is everyone else doing?
KIWI- you mentioned joining weight watchers. Its all about what works for you, if you are doing well with counting calories then thats good. I just need the thought of knowing that i am going into get weighed, and when i step on that scale i want to lose weight, not pay money to find out i have gained, thats just how it works for me. I also like the thought of being a lifetime member once you reach your goal.
I would love to see some pictures of everyone, before and during if you have or even just current pics. I will attach a before of me and a current one aswell.

Good Morning,

No weight change. Which is good considering I cheated alot this week. Lets just say I made $15.00 this week and ask me no questions!

Danni your score is great!! Proud of you. I promise I will do better this new week.

I'm leaving today for Jacksonville My son has his final game of the season and then we are going to stay with friends. The couple who lost there daughter Oct 2. They are doing fine but now have reached the stage of "self blame." You know what I mean? "What if I had done this or that" So its good for us to spend some time with them because we are all pretty close.

Anyway, I may not be able to post while I'm gone, at least not as much. So everyone keep up the good work and I'll be back on Sunday maybe Monday.

I redid my Myspace. I have new pictures and alittle bio that explains who the pictures are. Check it out.

I love myspace. I found a friend I haven't seen since the 8th grade on it. Its really nice to reconnect.

Hello Ladies,

Congratulations Queen Scalewatcher and New Queen to be announced this week.

I apologize for not being here! I was overwhelmed at work with this project and its is complete NOW. YEah. I'm ready to go ladies.

Kiwi snap out of it. Bring all that energy back that you have. Do not get discouraged over someone comment. Turn the other cheek and keep on moving and improving.

Hi danni Outstanding numbers for the week.

My weight this morning was the same. No change. This weigh in is so I can compete for this coming week as queen. I want the Crown.

Almost there you look awesome. How much exercising are you doing and how often? What kinds are you doing?

Well, here's mine. I'm sure I've forgotten stuff cause I stopped paying attention to water toward the middle of the week. I did pretty well on cheating though, so I'm excited about that.

$1.00 = Post 2max per day = $6.00
$.25=8oz Water = $10.25
$.25=15min/inside exercise = $3.25
$.25=per mile W/R = $7.00
$.25=2miles Bike = $0.00
$1.00=per Lbs. Lost = $2.00 (I didn't count what I gained because of TOM)
$.50=per offence = -$1.50
<b>Total $ Week = $27.00</b>

Hi girls
Just got off the scale I'm down 2 more pounds weeeee
Even though I did cheat with some chocolates ...and had some clam chowder I guess all that power walking I'm doing is paying off.

Drink plenty of water and exercise
