Too lazy to come here and post. I am the same.It is very hot here so I stay in as much as possible. Nothing new going on. Bill is painting my kitchen finally. It is a very small deary kitchen.Now it is much brighter with yellow walls and yellow cabinet doors. If i can have a pink living room I can have a bright yellow kitchen.Ha Ha Can't find the right knobs tho. I want white with a small sun flower in middle.Ok that's it for me.We jsut got back from grocery store and I need to put stuff up. I buy more stuff now than when kids were all here. I guess because I can. Have a good day

HELLO ALL....I have been among the missing too... the weather here is finally cooling off (NY)... I believe this has been the hottest summer I remember in a very long time... the breeze is a real blessing today....

I am still struggling away, not doing so bad really..... the Southbeach diet seems to work for me, I have not been swelling as much as usual, didnt realize carbs would cause major bloat in me but guess they do....

I weigh in on monday nights, this week I was a bad girl, got into the coke ( soda) so I hope to break even... and I have repented, no more soda ...... I didnt join the labor day challenge as i am already in one at the gym... so I hope I make my 100 mi by then..... maybe the next challenge, possibly halloween I
will join in......

Our TOPS group is very busy.... we are having a fall rally and the ttheme is "IF it is to be, its up to me".. we are using a Bee Theme... .I havent seen the skit yet but there is a lot of talent in our group, one lady is a retired music teacher.... It sounds like a very nice program....thats not til Oct.....do other groups have the fall rally also????

well I have gone on long enough..... have a wonderful week... India/Barb

I've been missing for a while. Just been so busy with the kids being home from school this summer and so forth. I've missed a bunch of chapter meetings too because of the kids being home for the summer. I also haven't lost much of anything...haven't been sticking to the plan....been eating whatever whenever. Also it's been so hot and humid this summer that I just haven't been active much either.

Anyhow I hope to come more often and post again....especially once the kids are back in school(Sept 6 is first day back).

Glad to see there are folks here! I have been in TOPS two weeks, had been going many many years ago and enjoy the friendly group I'm in. I like to check in here from time to time to see how others are doing and what ideas they have for meetings. I sure need some inspiration, have 80 pounds to lose and seem to be going nowhere.

Hey ladies;
Glad to see the board start to move again

Jen- I am sure once school starts you will get to where you can get back in focus, It is so hard when you have to be on the run all day...Hope to hear from you soon.

Kathy- WELCOME!!! Glad to have you on board...looks to me like you are doing VERY well for being in Tops for 2 weeks..3 pounds!! That is a container of Crisco girl Pick that up and look in it..it will motivate TRUST ME

Penny- Will all the boys be in school this year, or at least pre school??? You wont know what to do with an empty house...Hey then you will be like me LOL

Indiacatz - Yes we have fall rally too, ours is in September and I am really looking forward to it, I weighed 165 last time I saw our area captain and she was wanting me to hit my Kops by Christmas, so we will see....It feels good to be competitive

Eleni MOM- How is the exercise going?? I bet the pool is feeling good about now

As for me I am doing pretty good, I am on the Body for Life program and about 7 days in to the 12 week challenge, and I feel great about it, I know I can eat 6 times a day for life LOL, but seriously, I can and exercise is what I need all along, Hey I will have grandkids in the next 10 years Unless they wait past 21...Boy I hope the do
Well hope everyone has a blessed day, and I will be checking back in often
