GOOD MORNING LADIES!!! I hope everyone is off to a good start today.

Well, I ended the month with a 1/4# loss since I turtled last night, but it is still a loss and I am thrilled after what has been happening with me the past few months. I'm not going to be able to make the meetings for the next few weeks, so I'm really going to have to 'tow the line'. Next week is the Special Olympics dinner/dance for dd, the following week is visiting 2 chapters and spending the night with dd at college and the 3rd wk, dh is having a prostate biopsy done [again]. GEESH! Alot going on, on top of everything else, and I can't let my emotions and eating run away from me.

The knee is a bit better, but I found out that one of the therapy exercises I was given was actually making it worse. I was terrified it was filling up again last week, but it settled down. I hate not being able to move like I want to. Puts a huge crimp in my exercise plans.

Sherrie, you have had a great weight loss month. Good for you!!! Work has done wonders for you. Enjoy your life away from home during the day!!!!!

Eleni, hope you're feeling better. I think you'll do fine this eve at meeting.:

Wanda, what is the theme for your SRD this year? Sounds like your chapter is very active. You're fortunate!!!!

Nita, you are having a great loss for Jan also. I am so proud of you, cause I know you were having a tough time too. Thought of you when dd said she is going to Vegas for spring break. I think it should be warmer by March for her.

Coco, Linlin, Wanda, Marie, Christie, Wendy and everyone else, may you all have a great on plan day. We are worth it!!!

Good morning all, just stopping by to let you know I am still here. I have most of my voice back but aggravating cough is still with me.
I already know I will not have a loss. We have 1 free weigh in for each 6 months and I may use mine. I will wait to see how much I have gained. I have not been taking my water pill and thyroid is messing up again plus a lot of stress right now. Not good for losing weight. But I will get it turned around. I am disappointed that hypnosis isn't helping me better. I do good for a week or two and then I start gaining it back. She is coming to our meeting next week. I will call her and let her know I am not losing. Maybe she will give me a discounted recharge. I may be one that has to go several times for it to really help.
Hello to all the new names I have been seeing and much love to all my old buddies.
We can do this. I am just not sure when.

Hi Everyone

Summer... We went to Las Vegas one time in March, when our son got married about 8 years ago, and the weather was nice, (we just needed a sweater) but there was still snow on the mount Charleston and the ski slope was open if your dd likes to ski. She'll have a great time. There is so much to see there.

Eleni...Sounds like you are really having a rough time. It's really hard to concentrate on losing weight when you are under a lot of stress. I know a little about what stress can do to you. I think it is the reason that I gained weight the last 2 years. I feel so much better this year and I think that I will lose this year, too. So hang in there and when you get to feeling better things will turn around.

Sherri....You had a great weight loss this month. Way to go!

Coco, Wendy, Virginia, Liz, Wanda and all of you that I missed, hope you have a great day.
Good luck with the weigh-ins tonight. I'll know tomorrow if I'll get my 6 weeks in the black.

Hi Everyone
Boy we had a nice day here today. The sun was shining and it warmed up to 30. Suppose to get even warmer over the weekend. May get a chance of rain/snow mix late tomorrow night into Sat morn. But suppose to be close to 40 Sunday. YEAH!!!!!! Spring Fever. Ready to get out and get the flower beds ready. LOL!!
Well got my all my veggies cleaned for my veggie tray for tomorrow night. Boy does it take a long time to clean them. But they are done. Also got my pickle tray done and cheese tray. So getting things pretty well under way. Then all I will have to do is pack everything up and take to church.
Sounds as if the board is getting "lighter" Congrats to all the ones with a loss this week. That is wonderful. You all keep up the great work. Sherri I know what you mean about the weekends. I can do pretty good most of the week. But when Sat and Sun come its like. Ok the weekend is here lets eat non-stop. Just want to pick alot. So have been trying to keep hands busy. That seems to help. But once I go in the kitchen. Look out. I am into the cupboards or the refridge looking for something. So try to avoid the kitchen. So maybe this weekend with it being nice. We can get out of the house some. I think that will help. Just been in too much.
Well Ladies. I am thinking of everyone. And am glad that everyone seems to be on plan. And I know that I gained. But I know what I did. I got the pickies. But am going to try and do better this weekend. Well I need to see if the dryer stopped. Had towels in. Everyone have a great evening.
