Unhappy SORRY GIRLS

Hi Ladies
Sorry but I feel that I let you down. I gained last night. Gained 1/2 lb. Hubby stayed the same. So I will have to try really hard this week and get that 1/2 lb off. I am getting back OP today. So hopefully I will have a loss next week. We had a contest going. We had a pen pal for 6 weeks. And we were seeing who lost the most weight in that time. Guess what?? I WON!! I don't know how. But I did it. I won $20. I only won by 1/4 lb though. I thought this other girl won. One week she had a 10 lb loss. So I figured she won. I lost 11 1/2 lbs she lost 11 1/4. She is a newbie.
Had our elections last night. I think we will have a better leader now. Cant wait until she takes over. The girl that got co-leader I think she will be ok. If she doesn't let it go to her head. She can be like that. She gets something then she tries to be kinda bossy about it. I have known her for a long time. So we will see.
Well I guess I better get off here. Today is my sons birthday. So I need to get off here and straighten up the house. I figure he will have some company tonight.
Everyone have a good day.
A TOPS PAL

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MICKEY!

Hey Eleni,

Glad to hear you are doing good. How is the exercise going for you this week? Did you get back into the swing of things? Have a great day. Your special day is coming soon also.

Summer,

Thanks for the info. I wrote it down. We thought we would do it the first night and get it out of the way for the time change. I agree with you that still people won't stay but it would be good for the majority and I think they will be happy with it. We will see how they vote. If they don't want to change the time then we won't no big deal. We are just thinking of them.
I also realize that you can't change any of the tops rules. We didn't plan on doing that. I even told the other girl that we had to be familiar with those rules and use them as our guidline like eleni told me. The biggest changes we are going to make is that we will have a meeting every week and a program of some kind and we are going to include everyone this year and recognize the ones that never get recognition. In hopes to get people moving in the right direction toward their goals. I know it is ultimately up to them to do the work but we can help them. Right now they get no support.
I am glad that melissa's feeding tube is working out. Will she have to get this one replaced eventually also?
Good luck going back tonight to your meeting. Let us know what the scale says. I know this must be scary for you because you have not been there in awhile and don't know really where you are at. But you will be fine.

CC,

What can I say girl. Congratulations to you. You deserve all the praise in the world to have lost as much as you have and you continue to have a loss every week. I truely don't know how you keep up those great losses. But it won't be long now and you will be at your goal. They say the last 10 lb is the hardest to lose. I am a long way away from there so I wouldn't know. But you will be able to tell us if that is so won't you.LOL At least you can see the light at the end of the tunnel. You have to be so proud of you. It is like you have become a whole new woman for the good. I am so proud of all your accomplishments. Keep up the great work. Hey have you found a name for wendy yet?

As for me,

I am still doing good. I did exercise again yesterday. My scale is down again so hopefully it will be down at tops this week. That would be a great thing. We are trying for a 1 lb loss for each memeber in our group for the whole month of march. Tomorrow we start a contest and we all put in .25 a week and whoever loses the most at the end of the month wins the money. It won't be much but it could pay dues for one month which would be cool.
Today instead of buffet day we are doing a shopping day. I have decided that I have to stay doing good if I am to reach my goal like CC is doing. So instead of going out to lunch I am giving my daughter the $6.00 and we will go to walmart after class and go shopping. I told her she could save the money until next week when I give her another $6.00 and she could buy a bathing suit or whatever. So we are going window shopping today to see what she wants to buy with her money and see how much we have to save. Plus it is showing her that she can save for what she wants in life. That is a much better experience then just using the money for food. Then we will come home and eat lunch and I can stay on plan. I knew she would choose shopping over lunch any day. She is 3 and a shopaholic.LOL I hate to shop. Her god mother taught her well.
We went to see a pop up camper last night. It is brand new but they are selling it as used. The people bought it and then they traded it back in for a tag along. They never used it and it is a 2002 model. So we will see if we get it. I hope it doesn't get approved in a way. I don't want another bill right now. But he really wants the camper. So we will see what happens.

I have to get to work myself and I am not even showered yet. Have a great day all.

Think thin and you will be in mind and spirit.

Sherri

Happy Birthday Mickey

Good Morning All...

Coco....Congratulations on winning the contest. You did really good losing 11 1/2 #, during the contest. Keep up the good work.

CC....Congratulations on being elected treasurer and on losing 2 more pounds. You are truly an inspiration to all of us. How many weeks is it now that you have lost, 32, 33? Hearing how well you are doing and coco losing 11 1/2 pounds helps inspire me to stick with it.

I got my walking in this morning, and am still counting my points. I have been working with another woman who is really having a hard time eating sensible, I thought if we were buddies for a month, maybe it would inspire her. I worry about her because she has so many health problems related to her weight. I call her a couple times a week and we have agreed to work on just losing 1# this week. Then, we'll work on another pound next week and the next.

My husband, Jim, is doing pretty good. Summer, you mentioned his appetite yesterday. He has not lost it. He still loves to eat. He feels good for several days after the chemo because they put him on prednisone for about 5 days, then when he goes off that, his energy really drops and he is tired. They did a catscan on him last week and the mass has shrunk from 5 cm to 3 cm. The Dr. was pleased. I want it gone!

Sherri....It sounds like you have some really good ideas. Sometimes we do armchair exercises at our meetings. Most of our ladies are older and some of them have bad knees or hips. You can get a good workout just sitting in a chair. We have a woman that comes to the Florida SRD and gives those exercises. She really gives you a workout in about 15 minutes. Everybody loves her.

Summer....I've been thinking about those poor little chickens in that -38 degree weather, laying their eggs ssoooo slow. LOL
I guess their feathers give them some insulation or they would freeze. Hope it warms up for you soon.

Nita

Default good morning all

I stayed home today, not feeling well again. This weather changing is messing with my sinuses bad. I may end up going to the doctor over it.
Mickey, Happy birthday to you. I hope it
is special.

Nita-what a way to be a friend. You hang in there, you can do it. Great Job on counting your points.

Coco- congrats 11 1/2 pounds is awesome. The extra 1/2 pound will come off. We all have have gained before. Just think you are still weighing less then you did before the contest start. You day, new weigh.

CC-congrats on your weight loss to. sounds like we have a bunch of losers here, and really great friends here. We are awesome women aren't we.

Eleni-hope you are still doing well. Take it one day at a time girl.

Sherri, good idea about the shopping. Go idea, to start showing the value of a dollar, and good girl time. I need to apply that to Brandon.
I know what you mean about the camper thing. He wants one too, I don't want the bill. So we are going to use my sisters this year, unless we win
the lotto by then, and the chance of that happening is (zip, notta, ect.) Gotta play to win. But we can still dream. Boy would everyone in our families be happy if we did. We come up with what they would get before we do ours. And it seems as though the lists get bigger. Oh well.

Not much more going on here. I haven't eaten hardly today, but not feeling well. You all take care.
Ps, I have two names i'm debating on so far. I tried chaning it, and it wouldn't let me because of the same email address. So I emailed the ladies, to see if they could help. The names so far : ShortStack, or RedhotChiliPepper, any other ideas i'm very much game for.
Thanks for all yor guys help and support here, you all are truly awesome.

Hi,
I am having a good day so far. I did almost 30 minutes of walking at work and just finished 20 minutes of Richard.
I am looking for a loss tomorrow.
Thank you Sherri for my heart. You know you shouldn't have but I appreciate it. I am back on track again. I got a real good idea for a contest that goes all the time. I will send you a small sample. You will have to make it larger. I like the pot luck $.25. I may try that too.
Kermie you are doing great. You should be very proud of yourself.
Wendy Hope you are feeling better. My 1st pick would just be Wendy but I like ShortStack the best of the two. It is cute
Nita Our SRD will be here before we know it. It will be nice to see you again. I want to try and remember those chair exercises we do this year so I can use them. Your husband is getting better but I know you want it gone. You have a lot going on right now. Wish I could help. I am going to really push to get our group to do more to support of each other.
CC You are such an inspiration to us all. You leave some big footprints for us to follow. But you show us it can be done. Everytime I look at your picture next to my computer I remember how good you have done. You will be a KOP real soon.
CoCo-You are also doing great. I know you worked hard to get it off as I know how hard it is. Keep it up

hello to Summer,Christie,Donna,Marie,Mickey,Penny,Bev,Clair e and everyone else.
I need to come here more often but some days there are not enough hours
I love this little guy I am easily intertained

and this one
