GOOD NEWS...

I survived my first weigh in! I lost 7 pounds. I am very happy. I sure wish that would happen every week, but know it will slow down soon.

What has been your average weight loss per week when you stay on program?

Setina - Goodluck Saturday.. I assume that is your weigh in day?

Punky - It has been the coldest days of the winter here in Washington State.. yesterday AM is was 8 degrees... brrrr.. glad to hear it was warm SOMEWHERE!

Traci

Couldn't get in here for a few days................lots of posts!

Welcome Traci!

Hi Setina...

Good job Michelle

Pj..building a house...a victorian home with a wrap around porch..sounds like a dream! Hope it does not turn in to a nightmare! Won't power..that is what we need alright!

Julie...do you know how many pts regular rice krispy treats have made from the recipe on the box..... ( 12 servings in a 9x13 pan)

Bren......We had another winter storm....snow this time and it is blowing terribly and soooooooo cold! Hope it doesn't come your way!

Tara..hope you are feeling better, my sinuses are acting up too but no medication except nose spray. I hate those headaches! Sorry for the loss...........

I am into a sweet potato thing now, they are supposed to be better for you than white potatoes. The same amount of points though.

Hello and happy Hump day. So hard to believe that it is the middle of the week already.

As for our scanner, not sure why it makes the computer act the way it did. We were able to use it, but the computer would not work right, it also would not let us shut it down. Strange!!

Well it is almost the end of Feb. and we are finally getting our winter. Boy it sure has been cold out lately.

Hope you all have a great day.

Julie

Good Morning Owls!

Traci-YEAH! 7 pounds! You go girl! I am sooo happy and proud of you and yes, Saturday will be my first weigh in day since staring back. I hope I do as well as you did! Stay Warm!

Candice-Glad to see you post. Hope you warm up too and the sinus problem gets better soon!

Julie-I can't belive it's almost March already! We are at 24 degrees here in Hotlanta GA this morning so that's chilly for us.

I better get to work. I have an all day training class.

Have a nice day!!!!

Setina

Candice,

About the point value of those rice krispy treats, I'm not sure off hand what the point value is but all you need to do is break down all the ingredients, get the point value for each and then divide the points by the number of servings you get from the pan.

I don't have any marshmallows here for me to figure them out, if you want to, put the recipe here that is listed on the box and I will try and figure them out for you.

Julie

Morning!

It's busy in here - I like to see that!!

I had a really good OP nite last nite (I start my day with dinner) and plan to do great today too. I have WW tonite - wish me luck! I didn't do too bad so hopefully the scale will be kind. But I am back on program -- so next week will DEFINATELY be a good one!!

Candice - I feel for ya - sinus problems are the WORST! I hope you are feeling better soon. How is the Fibro going?

Traci - I firmly believe that quote at the end of my posts. I will never quit - ever. I may fall - but I will get right back up. Congrats on your 7lb loss!! Great job

Bren - How is your new job going? Yeah its been very warm around here too - its odd though! I mean don't get me wrong - snow is the pitts but still. I wonder what the summer will be like!

Setina - Damn that aunt Flo! LOL I am sure WI will be great for you. I am sending good vibes your way!!

Julie - That scanner is just being difficult! You may just need a new updated one. Is it old?

Ok I need some H20 -- off I go. Have a great OP day everyone

Tara

Just popping in at work in case I don't get a chance later on.

Setina, good job on staying on program, I am sure your first weigh in will go well. So glad to see you back to your old self again.

Tara, the job is great most of the time. Sometimes it gets very boring when there isn't much to do but that is very rare. I am working on a show right now so that is keeping me hopping.
Yes the weather has me a bit worried too, will it be a blistering summer? Maybe!! How do you like starting your day with dinner? I did that for awhile and liked it, might try it again soon.

Traci, hi and nice to meet you . I hope your weight loss journey continues to go well, things do tend to slow down after awhile but it goes along pretty well most of the time if you stick to program.

Julie, good to see you in the nest again. Sorry about the scanner problems, did the computer start freezing up? It may have been a conflict between software problems.

Candice, I just love sweet potatoes, have you ever made sweet potato fries, sooooo awesome. Just cut them up, spray them with pam and bake in the oven til cooked, you gotta try em.

See Ya Everyone

Brenda

I almost forgot to say...

Candice - Sweet potatoes are my FAVORITE! I don't have them as much as I should (I need to work on that!) - but there is this restaurant that has them and I LOVE to go there Its like eating candy....and its good for you. YUM!!

Brenda - Glad to hear the job is going well. How is your daughter doing? Is she really going to have the baby?

Ok back to work.....

Tara

Tara, Yupper, baby is for real. She goes to the doctor finally on March 1st, says she has the insurance all set now. I will believe it when I see it, she has told me she had an appt like 3 times, but hasn't yet. We will see.

Bren

Well it is Thurs. already. Where does the time go? Just a few more months and my son will be graduating from High School. I'm very sad/happy about that.

About that darn scanner.....it is only about 3 years old but when Meghan downloaded it, it cause the computer to not want to shut off. You had to sit and wait and wait, and then when you did shut it off, a sign popped up saying that you will lose any unsaved information. Then when you tried to get on the internet.....you had to go to the "my computer" then to the internet thingy, click on that, they it would start up...to much work

Kevin is really busy getting the race car ready for the races that start in May so I'm not sure when he will get a chance to check it out.

Well everyone, have a terrific day. I'm off to work for WW in Marinette and Oconto.
