MORNING LADIES!!!!

Sounds like some of us have survived the holiday fairly well. Yea, for those that did and for us that didn't, lets forget what we have done and move forward towards our goals.

I don't think I have eaten all that bad, but the scale isn't being kind. I believe the lack of movement is catching up with me. I know my clothes are tight and some I can't even get into anymore. I am now going to a chiropractor to see if he can help my knee since the MRI was negative, but I had to have fluid drained off a couple of weeks ago. I HATE not being able to move well without worrying about every step and how I hold my knee and that includes when I'm sitting. I'm afraid to try the bike for fear that I will aggrivate it more. Oh well, I'll figure out something. I hope I can at least have a turtle when I weigh in Monday, so I best really concentrate on my intake!

Sherri, thanks for the info on the shots. I'll be interested to hear how the outcome will be in the months to come. For now, I think I will just put up with my pain. Sounds like Megan had a blast. Hope you are doing well.....you know I always wish you that!

Wendy, hope Brandon is feeling better. I had a hard time reading your post yesterday.....a little too much information, if you know what I mean. Sounds like your eating is doing well, don't let your holiday splurge hurt ya, you've been doing too good!

Nita, glad you made it home safely and it's too bad that Vegas was cold. So you went to Dallas too? My brother lives north of 'D' in Allen. It would be nice to live closer to the grandchildren, but all your visits will be special. Think of me when you are in the nice warm sunshine. We continue to be in the deep freeze. It is -6 after midnight today and Wed night it was -20! If we're lucky, we're getting to the low teens for the highs. One good thing is that we have very low humidity [lots of dry skin] so the cold doesn't feel as 'biting' as back East. I remember the winters in Michigan next to the water. BRRRR!!!! Now that you're home, you will get motivated to think about your goal.

Eleni, How are you doing? Hope you had a Wonderful Holiday! I'm thinking of ya, and holding your hand on this 'weighty' journey!

Coco, good to hear from you too. Have missed you. Your scale may be up now, but you will get back on track. Keep focused on your goal also!

Christie, Thanks for your greeting to all of us on the board. Miss you not posting.....how is it going??? Are you getting closer to KOPS??? You must be closer than me. I'm 12 away!

To everyone else that hasn't been on here, I'm thinking of you and wishing you the best. Pop in once in awhile and let us know how you are.

Have a great day all..........all the goodies should be disappearing soon, so hang in there!!!

Hi Everyone,

I lost 1 lb. at weigh-in this morning. I was a little surprised, with Christmas and eating out a lot, I thought I would be lucky to turtle.
We bought a program for our computer and palm pilots, called "balance log". You put in all your information and it keeps a record. I put in to lose 1 lb a week. It tells me that I can eat about 1800 calories daily and still lose 1 lb a week. You log in your food and exercise and don't go over your calories for the day. I didn't use it on our trip, but still got a loss. Hooray!

Summer, I guess it takes time to get used to the cold. I don't think that I could handle the freezing weather that you get. I enjoyed the cold when we were in Las Vegas, but my coat wasn't heavy enough. In Dallas, we were stuck in the airport overnight. We could have gone to a motel, but were concerned about getting back to the airport at 5 AM the next morning, so we just spent the night at the airport.

Well, I guess that it is time to get busy and straighten up the house and do the laundry.

Have a good day everyone.

Hello Everyone!!!

I haven't been on for a while, but I think things have settled down now and I can consentrate on me a little. I haven't done TOO bad while I was gone. I probably have even lost a pound or two. But I had planned to be a KOPS by now...But it is a new year coming up and I am starting over!

I have lurked from time to time and sorta kept up with you all. Had been gone so long I had to reregister before I could post!

Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and that you will have a Wonderful New Year!!!

Eleni, how are you doing? I think about you often.

Love to you all!!!
Wanda
