Red face

Hi! I had to go back and read the end of yesterday's thread.

Joyce, you did good at the luncheon yesterday! <high-five!> Good luck today when you weigh in!

Pat, you won tickets to see Kenny Rogers? And you're taking your grandkids to Hershey Park on Monday and maybe being in a commercial?! Sounds like a lot of fun!

Christine, YOU DID WONDERFULLY YESTERDAY--I knew you could do it--stay on program! <high-five!>

Emmy, ummm...the boardwalk art show...its in June...the weekend of Father's Day that I do know! AND you did GREAT yesterday also--everything was fried?! Oh my. I've been to Piccadilly Cafeteria (Norfolk, VA) and I'm sure you can stay OP there!

Judy, how many more days until Sam's visit?

Sharon, Don't forget to take a break today!

Okay today is my challenge...I'm going to a luncheon/meeting type thing. I signed up for the pasta bar as I thought that would be my safest bet: 1 cup pasta and 1/4 cup sauce, tossed salad, salad dressing on the side, I'll have to stay away from the garlic bread and the dessert table. I can do this!

Morning All! You know I'm glad yesterday is over. It was tough fighting to stay within my points. I'll keep myself together today because tomorrow is WI. I just had a PB sandwich for breakfast and now I'm sitting here eating some lucious sweet strawberries. Yummy.

Emmy - You did Fantastic yesterday girl! You are a good influence for me, thanks.

Gail - Sounds like you've got a plan. Wasn't it Judy who said something about loving a plan? I thought when I read that about the A-Team. Not only do I love a plan but...."I love it when a plan comes together!". ROFL Said in my best immitation of "BA".

Yes it's an icky icky day here too. Just started raining. I made it to the building on time. Hopefully it'll clear off because Justin has a game tonight. He pulled a muscle in his back and I don't think he should plan but he insists. <sigh>

Good Morning all

Sure wish you could send some of that rain out here!! Sure could use it. I guess some the plants only have about 10% of the moisture they should have. Snow pack in the mountains is very low meaning not enough runoff for the farmers and ranchers That fire is still out of control and is up to 2100 acres. It won't ever get to where we live but we do get some of the smoke. They are speculating that since it started near the high school up there that it was a careless teen and his cigarette that started it.

I made it OP too. Sounds like it was a good day for all of us. YEAH!!!

Pat - I still am in awe that you won all that stuff. WOW I agree with Emmy, the right guy will come along when you are least expecting it. I know that doesn't make it feel better right now, we go thru this with our one unmarried son - he gets a little jealous that his 2 brothers have families already.

Christine - Good morning. I love pb and about every other night we have an English muffin with pb and some B&B. A good dessert for 4 points.

Gail - I made it through lunch yesterday. It's your turn today. I couldn't believe all the fried foods and the hot veggie was peas -yuck. They did have a good salad bar - thankfully - but I didn't have to worry about salad dressing - didn't see any.

Judy - 5 more days? Feeling the excitement building!

Gonna go for now - hope I can get in more than I did yesterday. I'm gonna have to come visits to keep me awake. This editing stuff is VERY boring.

Good morning PINKIES

I finally managed to get into the CAFE this morning. I'm having trouble with my computer since last night (not the cable modem this time believe it or not) and I'm using my son's. He was nice enough to offer it. I couldn't remember my password for 3FC though. Anyway I'm here now...whew.

You guys are the greatest...counting down the days with me! yes! we're at 5 !!

It's rainy and dreary and chilly here too. But I think it's going to clear up a little later, hopefully we'll have a nice weekend.

Gail Sounds like you have a good plan for today. My plans for last night's supper fell through a little, but I still did good. I ended up working a little later than I intended so they already ordered the pizza before I got home, which was fine with me, but I wasn't able to stop on the way home for salad fixin's. I called George before I left work and told him that I was just leaving...he said, "could you please just get home, I can't listen to this woman another second." The guys usually hide in the basement while that couple is visiting, I'm sure to get away from the woman. They didn't want to be rude and abandon her, they were waiting for me to get home. Gee, ain't I lucky to get to be the one to converse with her. Actually, she's not as bad with me as she is with the guys...she nags her bf something awful. George says he thinks he sees a connection as to why the bf drinks. Anyway, to finish what I was saying about my plan. I ended up having 2 pieces of pizza instead of just one, and I didn't have any salad, but I still did okay. I just like to be able to stick with a plan when I make it, ya know?

Christine {high five} for a great day yesterday! Yup, it was me who said that about a plan. You can see from my post to Gail how much it irks me to have a plan changed. I thought I was a little more flexable, but I guess it's different when it comes to working the program. I really do have more success staying OP when I have a set plan.
Hope Justin is okay...back pain is the worse!

emmy You did great on the food choices! Good for you! {high five}
Yes, I really want to look into an album for the PFC I think it would be great! Gail emailed and asked about everyone emailing pictures to me. Yes, email them to me and I'll save everything to disk. I'll send the email address that I'd like everyone to use.

Pat You may think you should've done better with a loss, but it's still a loss. You've been headed in the right direction (down) every week. Good for you!! So proud of you!
Wow...Kenny Rogers! I use to listen to his songs all the time. I had a Kenny Rogers Greatest Hits tape years ago. Some of those songs were sooooooooooooooo romantic.

Joyce That's just awful about the fires...so much land burned up. So much destruction because of one little careless act.
You made some good OP choices yesterday...good for you!

Sharon You should be very proud of yourself...you made some good choices too. Yay for you!

I'm going to pour another coffee and continue to enjoy a little more time for myself this morning.

I'll be back a little later.

Hey PINKIES. Will you all do me a favor and send a note to the following email in order for me to get YOUR email addresses. This is also the address that I'll ask you to send any and all pics for the PFC album (which I'm still working on). Thanks!

Pat that has happened to me time and time again. I finally started copying it before pressing the send button. If I lose it then I can paste it back! It's frustrating after you've typed a long post isn't it?

Okay PINKIES I'm on my way out... don't know if I'll have a chance to check in tonight but I'll try.

Looks like everyone has a plan goin' on today, so lets kick some OP butt!

*raising my water bottle*

Have a GREAT OP day!

Yes Judy, so upsetting.. I will have to remember that! Glad to hear your son is letting you use his computer. 5 days, wow, I bet your seating on the edge of your chair, just waiting. Any big plans for her when she gets there? Did you did well last night. I haven't had pizza in a long long time. Have a good day at work.

Joyce I hope the fire gets under control soon. We need rain here too, but it's getting to be too much now. Need some nice weater so I can walk! I love to try to win, and it's not cause I'm lucky, it's cause I try.... if you don't use your finger and dial that number, you never will win. Thanks for your support in regards to the "right" man, is there such a thing I know for one thing, the "housemate" I have now, it's the right one. That is why I'm going to go as many places I can and do as much as I can, because I enjoy being out and if it's "free" it's even better

Emmy You did great yeseterday. Wow all the fried food and you just walked away, that is willpower! Hope you have a good OP day at work again today.

Gail Yes, I love trying to win tickets...Brad Paisley I didn't win, but that should be win on Sunday. The Bull Ride Mania starts at 2pm and then Brad sings later. Going to see some nice looking guys there . I know you can do it today. We are right there on your shoulder, Yes, Gail, you can do it....

Christine Well, no walk at lunchtime, maybe next week, cause I leave work at lunchtime tomorrow for the dentist and won't be back in till Tuesday You can do this, I know you can, if I can, will no planning, going by the seat of my pants and lossing this much, so can you! Toast to you, with my 32 oz WW cup.... ice and all!

Sharon Come up for air, hope to see you here soon. I know you're working way too hard!

Wink

I am victorious! I went to the luncheon...worked the buffet...and came out victorious over the food!

I ate:

1 cup (guesstimation) pasta = 4 points
steamed vegetables over the pasta = 2 points (because there might have been some oil in them)
tossed salad = 0 point
1 T (if that) Italian salad dressing = 2 points
iced water

NO DESSERT! I passed up carrot cake, brownies, and assorted cookies!

I'll be back later...
