Welcome to 3FC, Topaz! So glad you decided to post in SAA for your first visit here! :)

Hot, you'd probably be suprised at how many men actually step on the scales like we do! I hope they find their way here if they do! LOL

I'm still on :cloud9: from this morning.. LOL I'm actually afraid to weigh myself now.. for fear that the evil :devil: scale will change it's mind!

Wakey Wakey!!! Shake a Leggy!!! I know it's early ladies...but I'm on my way to the horses and thought I'd say hello!! Gotta do horses earlier than usual today cuz I have to go to the Dr.s for my weekly check up on bloodsugar situation and my eating habits. He put me on his own version of the Atkins diet and we've been tweaking it to suit my needs. So I will post here again once I get back from the Docs!

A-C-K-!
 

Good luck at the Doc's, hotsplashes.. We'll be awaiting your return :D

ceara :bravo: on the pants being looser! I love that feeling.. That means you're loosing inches, despite what the evil pig demon scale says! ;)

ceara- try dusting off the scale-if it's been in the bathroom for awhile it may have collected some dust and hair. This could make a difference!:lol:

Today's weight was down 1.5# (the dusting off helped me) (or maybe it was the bending to do the dusting) any way...have a great weekend everyone!:cool:

That's wonderful Ideal!! Good thing ya dusted it off ;) lol

Hope you have a great weekend too!

HMMM
 

Maybe when it went out to the field to weigh the turkeys it picked up a little somethin'? Nah, smells the same! But maybe I'll dust it/disinfect it anyway! :lol: A little waist exercise can't hurt!

Ceara

Hello My wonderful Losers!!!! I have survived the day. ANd what a day it was.

Ceara!! It's how the clothign fits that REALLY counts sometimes! I've been 140 - 145 and still in a size 6!! you are just gaining Muscle!!! LOSING FAT!! Keep it up, Ceara!!! Way to go!!! :cb: :D

WOOHOO For Idealperson!! 1.5 lbs down!! YAYYYYYYYY!!!!! Heheheh the Dusting comment made me giggle! Yes...I am sure dustbunnies DO contribute to added weight...I'm Positive of it...and yes Bending to Dust DOES constitute as Exercise!!LMAO Keep up the GOOD LOSING!! :cp: :cp:

And now for Shelley, our Pep Squad Captain!! What an inspiration you are!! Thanks for keeping the posting going! And LOOK AT YOU!!! only 15lbs to go for your goal!!! Youl'll be there before Christmas!!!WooHOO think of the nice New Year's Eve outfit yer gonna buy!! YAYYYYY!!! :dance: :dance: :dancer: :dancer:

And now for the Dr. Visit!!! Now I'm sure I'm going to get these numbers screwed up... My Insulin Level for fasting rate was 27......and my fasting blood glucose level was 4.26....or vicey versy. I told Doc that I had been on that diet he gave me for 5 days prior to the tests and he said that it could have affected the tests by possibly raising the numbers but I still showed a bit low in both. Low in the insulin is good...average is 30 to 40...average for the other number is 5-7? So I'm still low no matter how you look at it...and that is good as far as the insulin is...blood sugar is so close to normal that Doc is happy. Said I should stay on this diet pretty well forever...said my condition is hereditary...No cure...but controllable...and all thru proper eating!! Yay Me!!lol

Have a great weekend everyone...I'll stop by tomorrow!

Good morning! The scale won again....somehow I am down to 146.5!! Not sure why it's down from a couple of days ago, but, I'll take it!!

Hotsplashes,

Sounds like you had a good dr.'s visit. Way to go on the insulin levels. My mom has type 2 diabetes.

Shelley,

LOL, I didn't dare step on the scales a second time this morning when it read 146.5! I couldn't believe it myself!!

Hello to everyone...have a great Saturday!

Holly

Ceara.. LOL!! :lol:

Hot--DANG! Wish I could be a size 6! LOL Oh boy how that would be nice.. I'll take my size 10/12 I have though.. I could be a 16 that I was a couple of months ago! :) Glad you had good results at the doc! YAY YOU! Keep it up! :cp:

chikita.. I've been stepping on the scale every morning.. just to make sure that I'm still 145.. and I am! LOL We are truly addicted aren't we? :D

I take that back about my size! Read my journal.. the entry that says "AWESOME"

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :hyper:

Good evening everyone...just a quick entry on all the good news!

Chikitababe...stick with it...yer doing great! Is your mom on insulin? A friend of mine takes 4 to 5 shots a day...Even her dr. says if she ate properly she'd be down to 2 or 3 stabs a day.

Look at Shelley our posting Machine!! WOOHOOO And You'll be a size 6 in no time...I will be very happy to be back into size 8...of course I'll be happy with a 12 any time soon!lol

See everyone Monday...I have a HUGE all day trail rider tomorrow...Have fun ladies...I'm off to read Shelleys journal!lol

I still hate my scales!!! they really don't like me at the moments, but there again i don't like me either.
coz...
I've been away from here for a good few days now as my youngest daughter has been poorly!! So i stayed at home to look after her and ate and ate and ate and didn't do any exercise as i was too busy playing nurse maid!!! My scales and my clothes are telling me i have gained more than a pound or two!!
Here's hoping i can stay on track this week !

Tulip, I hope your daughter is feeling better after a pampering from her wonderful mom. And that weight gain you are feeling, alot of it is probably water. So just get back on Track and you'll do fine!

I ate well today. Cheated a bit with some soymilk - vanilla flavor- because it satisifies my sweettooth. But it's all gone now and there won't be anymore in the house until I reach goal weight. I never new how many carbs were in Soymilk until this diet my doc put me on made me check labels like crazy. One glass of Soymilk has my daily allowance of carbs. Sooooooo...no more soymilk..

I'll see everyone tomorrow!

Hope you all had a good weekend!

:: dreams of size 6 :: :lol:

I'm definitely staying away from the scales for at least 7 days.. TOM decided to visit today.. LOL Though I have a docs appt tomorrow and I know they're going to weigh me.. I just won't look!! (yeah right)

Tulip -- sorry you're having such a rough time! Sometimes we have to put our life on hold to take care of our yungins. We all go through something like that and I definitelty know how you feel! I hope your daughter starts doing better soon and I'm sure you will get on track when you can! :)
