I will be glad when it cools down some so I will feel like walking my dogs and etc. Have a great night and an awesome Monday!!!

I can see the problem, there is an error in the code. Go to www.3fatchicks.com/weight-tracker and create a new one. You must use whole numbers, don't use decimals. Then go back to your UserCP and delete the existing signature code, then copy and paste the whole (new) code into the field and that should take care of it

L- Lean gourmet Meal 5

Congratulations on your new jeans!!!!! It is such an awesome feeling, and you've worked so hard to get there~!!!!

I'll post my day later, still debating how badly I want to kill it with a dinner at Applebee's....I'm thinking of the WW chicken sandwich, but my mouth wants the oriental chicken salad that is SOOO high in pts! I wish there was a way to see how much the dressing is, pt. wise, because I know most of the pts come from that...the salad is only grilled chx, lettuce, cabbage, small amoung of chinese crispy noodles and slivered almonds....I know it isn't 19 pts worth!

Hi everyone. Sorry, fell off the radar again over the weekend. Good news is I did fine. I am for sure going to lose this week. I have sent yet another pair of pants (capris) to the garage sale pile. My husband never enjoyed so much the fact that I need new clothes.

Speaking of, Debbie GREAT JOB!!! How exciting for you! My friend works with a personal trainer who has her wear weighted bags that resemble her weight loss thus far. He has her do this when she puts on a pound or two. Just think how many sacks of potatoes you were carrying around before. Keep it up!!!

I told you all that I was trying that Wendie plan this week. I have "tried" it. I am not sure I got my 39 points in on my super high day. It was that day of my mom's retirement party. I was too busy entertaining to stuff myself. Turns out that was a good thing since the greasy Mexican food upset my stomach that night anyway. The party was great. Everyone had a great time despite the fact that the high that day was 116. Yes, some of the party was outside. Can't fit 50+ people in my house easily. I had tables set up out in the back with a swamp cooler and fans going. It was tolerable I guess. Friday it was 118degrees out. YUKK!! Thank goodness I only have to put up with the crazy heat for about 2 months. I can handle anything under 100 with ease.

My eating today has been wacky. I am ok on points, but I have eaten a hodge podge of food. I think I am emotional because my daughter just started 1st grade today. This is her first year of being in school ALL DAY. Thought it might just kill me but I am still here. Also found out that when her brother starts kindergarten next year, it will be mandatory all day. UGH!! That is not what I wanted to hear. I am one of those crazy people who actually likes to have the kids around. All day school is not a blessing for me as it is for some of my girlfriends.

Anyway, I will post my points later. I just wanted to touch base and let you all know I am still around and "kickin."

--Amy

Oh! Jennifer, if you've been good all week..........get the salad. I love the cajun talapia and it is only 6 points. Good luck on whatever you choose.

Hey everyone - I am back! With all the new people - it will take me a few days to get oriented. I crawled to my meeting this morning ashamed (well maybe it wasn't that bad), but I did gain again of the 4th week in a row. I am up to 188.something. I just got back from 10 days in the San Juan Islands with all our friends. It is turning into quite the annual trip with 5-7 couples and kids staying for up to 10 days. When we first went in 1992 there were no kids. Now we have 7 under 4 years old.

I baked fresh cinnomon rolls most mornings and drank wine all afternoon. They make these huge sausage/bacon/eggs/pancake breakfasts every day -- I managed to stay away kind of, but picked at the bacon (which I never buy at home), ate at least 1-2 rolls a day, munched on doritos, had fresh cookies each night, -- all in all fairly bad behavior resulting in sort of a permanant tummy ache by about day 7, although I can't tell if it was from all the rich food or a perma-hangover.

I have no vacations until the end of August and no excuse to stray. The workout scene doesn't look to good. I put my gym membership on hold, it is too hot to run/walk/or exist outside, and I am feeling a little weird about swimming in the lake since they are spraying 2-4 D and Sonar in it to get rid of milfoil (a weed). I have a 1.75 mile swim race coming up in 2 weeks and haven't done any swimming this year. I sort of have to do the race because I am one of only a handful of people who haven't missed a race in 11 years. Finishing this note on - I know that I need to exercise, but have no "set in stone" plans to actually do so. DH is in South America (work) for 2 weeks so I am also a single mom till August 5th.

Today:
latte (2.5)
latte (2.5)
2 cliff bars (9)
chicken (2)
1/2 a block of tofu (3.5)
trisquits (1)
cottage cheese (2)
veggies (0)
peanut butter (2.5)

25 point day

Ok - AJmommy -- I completely take back the toohottoexist temperature remark. Our high today was 98. I can't imagine 120 yikes - well I can imagine it since I went to Lake Havisu in the summer one time, but I don't really want to think about it.

Applebee suggestion: have the dressing on the side. Then just count the points in the dressing based on how many tablespoons you use. That way you can have your salad and eat it too

Sherrin - I am up for an organized chat anytime after about 10:00pm PST(have to get the kids to sleep). Maybe a weekly basis? Makes it tough for the East Coasters since that is 1am though. Otherwise I can't determine a time when I am sure to be online.

Shoud we pick a day and time?

I BEHAVED!! haha...I got the tango chicken sandwich which was 7 pts, had it been thurs/fri of last week I would have splurged on my fave salad, but considering WI is Wed, and I soooooo want to get under 200, I figured the salad would have to wait...
