GOOODDDDD MORNING LADIES!!!!!

Thought I'd start us off in the right direction by reporting that I lost 2 of the 4 pounds last night. Now 2 more to go by next Wed.

I had a huge post just about done, thought I'd get cute with the 'smilies'.....have no idea what happened and lost the entire thing. I am soooooo upset. No more smilies for me for awhile.

ANYWAY...................

Christie, I am so happy that you are determined to get your KOPS back and that you joined the gym. There will not be a better feeling than accomplishing that. Must confess that since I'm the only KOPS in my chapter I have been forgetting the words to the KOPS pledge. Embarrassing. It was nice to have everyone in the Circle of Lights at IRD saying it and the words just flowed then. YOU WIll do it. I'm waiting in the wings for ya..........

Sherri, come on, wouldn't you and Christie love 2 handsome cops at your doorstep???? Remember, you're a 'single lady' this week!! Get a little rowdy. Thanks for your word on the 'carbs' and I promise to think of you as I reach for them.......thinking about the ones that would be wiser choices. Don't worry about that angel. She is well dusted off and loved. In fact, looking down at me right now. I'm sure the kids are having a blast. Anyway, you and Christie can take off for a little bit and just have a 'girl time'? That would be special for both of you to remember.

Eleni, piano lessons? GOOD FOR YOU. This is a positive step for having something else to do with your hands besides handling food. That's something I need to do more of, Wish I was a 'crafty' person. Oh, I know, you can come give me lessons on the computer.. Ok, I just had to use a few smilies, but at least I didn't have to click on the 'get more' and screw up again. Glad your eating is going better for ya. Remember, I'm holding your hand..............

Well, today is going to be an interesting day for me. Gotta take dd to an oral surgeon 45 miles from here so he can knock her out and yank the wisdom teeth. She had braces 3 years ago and now the teeth are getting crooked again due to the wisdoms. She's off to college again in only 3 weeks and we have been trying to get things done. All the MRI's and other tests have come back negative for migraine causes..........so that is good, but still would like to know why, especially with the severity of them. Other dd is doing well for all her 'stuff'. YEAH!

Ok, today will be a good eating day and I hope everyone else reading this will take a moment to think about what is being put in the mouth. Is it REALLY WORTH IT? Something to think about when there is a goal out there waiting for us to capture it. Come on, WE WILL LIVE OUR DREAMS and make it to GOAL!!!!! Keep the water bottles handy, too!!

A BIG ' HELLO ' to all our MIA's!!!!

HI SUMMER,

I'M IN MOBILE, AL. I BELONG TO TOPS IN THE TILLMANS CORNER AREA. I BELIEVE IT'S CHAPTER 601, BUT I'M NOT SURE. ONLY BEEN A MEMBER SINCE JAN. ANYWAY, I JUST SIGNED UP TO 3FATCHICKS AND SAW THE TOPS FORUM. I JUST THOUGHT I'D SAY HI!!

I'M GLAD YOU ARE DOING SO GOOD AND HAVE RETURNED TO YOUR KOPS STATUS. I STILL HAVE A LONG WAY TO GO, BUT AM AVERAGING ABOUT 1/2 TO 3/4 # A WEEK.

HOPE TO HEAR BACK FROM YOU AND SOME OTHER TOPS. DO YOU GO IN A CHAT ROOM. IF SO, WHICH ONE.

BYE FOR NOW, BAEDOLL

I just have a few minutes to say hello to everyone. I have been staying so busy that I'm not on the computer all that much. We just got back from the lake, took the grandsons for 3 days. They tell me school will soon start so they have to get in as much time there as they can!

Sounds like everyone is doing well. To those who are struggling, just hang in there. Remember, ONE DAY AT A TIME!

Hope you are all having a good summer.


Summer, 2 pounds gone for good! Way to go girl! You can make it.

Sherri and Christi, sounds like you are having fun. Enjoy your time together.

Eleni, I'm jealous. I have always wanted to take piano lessons, but I guess not bad enough to take the time. I know you will enjoy doing that.

Babedoll, welcome aboard! Sounds like you are doing it right, a little at a time. It seems to stay off better if you do it that way. Just keep on doing what you are doing and you will make it to goal!

I didn't get to weigh in tonight, we had company come in and they kept saying "We really have to go", but stayed until it was too late for me to go. But my scales say I'm down 1 pound.

TOPS HUGS to all,
Wanda

Welcome aboard Babedoll. Please join us any time. The board is only as good as we all make it.....and boy, we all have the same challange with our weight. Glad you joined TOPS and I wish you much success. I lost almost 61#'s to goal....and you will do fine too if you think about what you eat and really wonder if some of the 'goodies' are really that good. I have never done the chat rooms. I can't stay on the computer for long periods of time.

Mickey, glad your having a busy summer and enjoying the grandkids before school starts. I'm happy your scale showed a loss, now, don't let that go to 'waist' before your next meeting. Keep doing well and it was nice hearing from you. I thought of you at IRD because you had mentioned a long time ago that you were thinking of going.

Take care all,

Tops Hugs,
Summer
