I have some sad news to begin our month's thread.
Susan's baby died on Monday afternoon. Seamus was almost 3 months old.
There's no way I can imagine how Susan is feeling right now. My prayers are with her.
Tina
I am so sorry to hear about Seamus!! My thoughts and prayers are with Susan and her family. I can't imagine losing a child or grandchild! Makes the things in my life fall a little more into perspective.
Tina, my stress is still high but I am dealing a little better with it. I didn't go to WI this week but my scales show staying the same. Thats ok. I feel a little more in control right now. We'll see what next week brings. Hope everyone has a good week end...Sis
Hi, I need some encoragement and thought y'all might like some, too.
This has been a very busy, quick week for me.
I have eaten fairly healthy stuff. I just don't seem to be able to keep the weight off. I lost 3 pounds but here it is again.
I've got to get committed before I am.
Hi there - I've never posted on this thread before and am actually pretty new to this site. I weigh in on Wed. but there's noone on that thread......I hope it's ok to post here. After reading some of your it really puts things into perspective for me. The support you show for others is amazing.
So this is how my week went. I lost this week, which is great. However, I was way off plan and am worried it will catch up with me at weigh in next week. So my goal is to stay on plan this week and to make sure I drink all of my water.
Welcome to jorninsmama
We are so glad you are with us. Don't worry about next week. Just start back on program today and drink your water. I say that and I have a hard time doing it.
again---we're glad you found us.

Hi ladies just down one pound in the last 2 weeks, I am starting to get bored and we seem to be eating out a lot lately. I have confidence in all of us though, we can do it. I finally had a talk with my leader and she thought staying with my short term goal was doable and when I get there we can see how I feel. My short term goal is to get to under 200 so Hopefully siometime in this next year. I will have to rely on all of you for support, because I can't afford to go to the meetings past the end of the year.
Tina you have done so well in the past I know you will (ARE) back on course.
I think we all have the squirrel syndrome (gather all the food before winter) these last few weeks too. I notice that the group that I go to on Wed. night has slowed down in the wild clapping sessions. Lets all remember how far we have all come.
Well, I was down 1 3/4 of the 2 1/2 I gained last week. I'm ok with that. At least it was down. I'm feeling a bit better about things. The main stresser is still going on but I am dealing with it better. Hope everyone has a great weekend....Sis
T.G.I.F,
Mimi, being down a pound is fantastic!!!
Of course, you can rely on us to cheer you on.
Sis, Wow---you are getting rid of that weight. I'm so happy for you. And, you sound very positive and I like to hear that, too. Have a good weekend.
Tammy, we miss hearing from you sooooo much. Maybe this weekend, you'll be rested enough to let us know what's going on.
Susan, we are here for you, let us help you.
jorninsmama, have a good weekend.
I'm very positive this morning. I think the cooler weather helps. It was 59 when I got up today. Of course, it'll get back up to 80, but that's okay. I got out the afghan for our cat. He made a nest in it at the foot of the bed.
Does anyone have a good stew recipe ? Would you share with us, please!
Tina, I was on the go with the band Friday and Saturday. Sunday was spent sleeping almost all day. Back to school yesterday, and meetings last night. I wanted to be in bed by 9:00 tonight, but it's almost 9:20. I haven't even graded papers yet! They may just have to wait.
The colder weather is really causing me to hurt more. I don't know if that's part of the deal with Fibromyalgia or not. I guess I need to find out when I go to the doctor again.
Well, I didn't WI this week. I was going to but my scale show an gain of 1 lb. I was so bummed I didn't go cuz I KNEW I hadn't gained! I had been so good and walked 2.1 miles twice that week! The next day my scales showed that I had stayed the same, I'm better with that. I am getting so bummed, I have to get myself back in the mindframe I started all this with. I DONT want to gain what I have lost. I keep telling myself that. I have had my thyroid levels checked since my surgery and they say that its ok so I guess it can't be that. I just have to get motivated again I guess. We'll see what next week brings. Hope everyone has a great week end...Sis
