Hello Ladies!

Its getting kind of quiet around here! How is everyone? I am doing okay. Its been a little stressful with ds having no school now. I don't get a break before work. Somedays they don't even want to let me use the bathroom alone! I definately need to find a day job.

As far as food Its been okay. I think I will have a loss tommorrow. But not going to stress out about it.

I hope you all are doing well! Hope to here from you soon!

Beth

When you are done with the laundry over there I have a HUGE pile that is calling your name.....

Worked last night until 1:00am and then had to get up at 5:00....

So nothing is being done today.... I am hoping I can stay awake until 9 so that I dont wake up at 3am.

How is everyone doing????

Hello All!

Just a quick Hi! How is everyone??? Jennifer, Ideal, Winnie, Sandy and Angel?

Its the weekend time for all the busyiness. Of course I am starting it out right. We are going to a Hamburger joint for work tonight. It is none for the mammoth hamburgers it makes. I have also been salivating about the omellette and pancake I have almost every Sat! So next week will mean bootcamp for me!

I lost 2.5 this week at TOPS. No one said anything more about me losing to much. There kick this week was that I should take vitamins. Which they are probably right but I have never been a pill taker! I am ashamed to admit this but I did not even take prenatals. I have a thing about pills.

I also went to the doc today she said my weight could range fro, 105-140. Very Broad. So I am shooting for 125-135. We shall see. I know the 105 is absurd!

I hope you all have had a great week! and have a great weekend!

Beth

Hey everyone!!!!!!!!

Weighed in on Wed and I loss 4 more. Well it was a little more my weight was 183.5. Only 3.5 to go and I get highlights!!!!!! Yeah.

Angel, methinks that I would rather have someone else come here and do my laundry.

Beth, WTG!!!! You are doing great! I understand about the pills. Esp the vit. They hurt me so much when I take them.

I am having a really hard time emontially now. There are many problems here and it has brought my spirits way down. The good thing is that I am not eating as much. Everyone keep me in your prayers.

Hey Everyone!!!!

My computer has gone into a coma I think and I have been having problems getting on... sorry I havent.

It does seem alittle quiet around here. I wonder if this is the summer thing.

Sandy, I hope you are doing OK.... what is going on emotionally over there.... you can always chat with us. Your weight lose is going so great I am real proud of you.

Beth, You sound like you are going in the right direction just keep going.... as for vitamins. I am with you - I am not a big fan of pills and I need them.... so I started taking Flintstones (dont laugh) .... it does help.... also they have liquid vitamins but I am not a great fan of it..... tastes like dirt to me.

Thanks for all the compliments on the pictures.

Anyway, I hope to see yall soon.... I hope to have my computer back.

OK here is the cliff notes on what I am going thru right now.

Last week dh told me that he loves me but doesn't want to be married any more. He says the he was single for too long(we got married when he was 40) and wants no more responsibilites and to come and go as he pleases. Since he has told be that he is nicer to me than he has been in a long time and every now and again he says things to indicate that he has changed his mind but I don't think that his integrety(sp) will let him. So now I am trying to figure out what to do. I can always move back in with my mother but I really don't want to do that and I don't make enough to pay the rent and all the bills here as well. I have made some contacts and if this one contact does as he has promised I will be moved up on the hud list and possibally get to stay where I am at and get help with the rent. Right now I can use all the prayers that are out there.

Hello All!

Sandy I am so sorry you are going through this! I will definately keep you in my prayers. I hope you get everything from him you deserve! Have you thought about Habitat for Humanity. They build houses for people. My sil is a single mom of four. They built her a four bedroom house. Very nice. It might be worth checking into if they have it in your area. She pays based on her income. Another thing she did was take the test and got a job with the post office. She makes good money now.

Well I am getting ready to leave for our family reunion. I have a four hour drive ahead. Hope the dks are good! or at least bearable! I used to torture my mom in the car so I guess I am just getting my due!

Here's to an OP weekend!!

Beth

Unfortantly there is nothing like that here for me Beth. I am in a very backwards area. What help is out there is based on who you know not what you qualify for. Thanks for the information though.

Hello Ladies!
Angel is your computer still down? How is everyone else???

Sandy I am sure things will work out. One way or another we always seem to make it. One thing is for sure I would make sure you get everything you deserve from the divorce! He shouldn't be allowed to leave you high and dry. He knew what the word marriage was all about! Maybe things will still work out if that is what you want. But it sounds like you are not waiting around to see. Which I think shows what a strong women you are. He is going to see this and be sorry in the end! ((Hugs))

Well my weekend was a lot of fun. We went four wheeling. Never had drove one before. It was so much fun. Dh and I are ready to go back for another visit!

Food was exactly what I expected not so great but I am back on track today. You are going to have times like that and I think its how we deal with it that matters.

I guess I should say i had a1.5 lb loss last week. The count is down to 50! Here's to an OP week!

Where is everyone???? You are welcome Sandy anytime.

Well we got some bad news last night. My sisters dh left her. Well he may be back by now. I really hope not. I could go on and on about him. But bottom line is my family knew this day would come. My sis married this guy she had her own new house, new car, and a good job. With one year she had lost it all and had a baby. He is the biggest habitual liar I have ever known. For my sis and the dk's sake we all pretended to believe him. He is now accusing her of having an affair. He claims the new baby probably is not even his. He threatened to take the dk's and run away. He claims his family knows the mafia. I know my sister is not perfect. But this guy has been fishy from day one!!! It just scares me that he could pull off some of the crap that he says he can. He hardly ever pays attention to these kids. He never gets up with them, doesn't help with there care or around the house. My oldest nephew is autistic and there is a lot of stuff involved with that and my sister does it all. But she also has depression and he will not pay for her meds or for her to go to the doctor. So now he is claiming that he can prove she is crazy and unfit. I am so glad that she did not move to Pennsylvania and she is living in town with my parents. They can help her through this. But I am scared that her dh is going to drain my family dry. I can't believe this is happening. I really hope she leaves him for good I know that is awful to say. But I for one will be glad this jerk is out of our family I am so tired of pretending to like him!!! I am just afraid he will make up with her and lull her into comfort and then 6 months from now take off with the dk's. I know I am sounding paranoid now but this guy is nuts!!! Im telling you he is lucky to have my sis. I would not have put up with him from day one!!!! I would have kicked him to the curve long before now. I am sorry to go on and on about this. I have just been so worried and upset. I can't believe this is happening. I told my dh this am how much I appreciate him.

I hope everyone else is having a better day!

Hey Everyone!!!

Computer is still on the blink..... UGH!!!!!

Beth- I wish your sister all the luck... how unfortunate to go through something like that. It is awful to be involved with men like that.... I hope she stays strong.... there is a light at the end of the tunnel and I hope he is gone for good like you said.... she needs to go ahead and get the courts involved to at least have it on record about him threatening to steal the kids.... also maybe she can go ahead and get some financial support from that creep.

Sandy- 13 years ago my husband came home one friday and told me he was tired of the house, tired of the cars, tired of the cats, tired of the dogs, tired of the kids and tired of me..... and then he left.... we hadnt been fighting or anything.... it came from left field. I found out he had been planning this for 3 months.... he had quit paying the mortgage, cleaned out our savings account and left me with a 2 & 4 year old with no money and I was only working part time and going to school..... within 2 weeks I had to sell my house, put everything into storage, send my kids to my mothers for 2 months, and rent a room out of some guys trailor for 75.00 a week.... I lost EVERYTHING in 2 weeks.... it was devasting.... starting over when I thought I had a safe little world.... I tell you this to let you know that I made it through.... it wasnt always easy - I wont lie to you - but I made it.... I worked on my education in patches, got my self a crappy job, then a better job, then a better job until I knwo have a great job, I bought my own house 5 years ago and have two great kids that I have raised without the child support for over half of that time. My ex-husband calls my house a mini mansion and resents that I now live better than him..... that is the best revenge of all... to live better than him..... you can do it.... I know you can.... you have the strength inside... I will pray for you....

We will be here for you....

BETH - 50#'s YEAH!!!!!!!!!! I wish that was me.... Great Job!
