    I hear ya Steph, my weight has been going up, since my routines are all over the place this summer.
    We leave for our sailing club cruise tomorrow after my hair apt. I have to pack today and will be at yoga this morning. I am still trying to keep up with exercise, but the scale is not cooperating. My mini goal
    is September at my next doctor apt. I hope I can lose some by then.

    I got on my bike yesterday and did 6.7 miles and my knee was okay but still a little achy. I am doing
    exercises to strengthen it.

    Have a good day!

    Hi everyone,

    Connie, Congrats on soon being a NANA. Hope all goes well with the pregnancy.

    Shirley, I hear you with my routine being all over the place. We have been doing flower beds this week and last.
    Getting ready for the July 4th. Our lake community puts on a great celebration with live music, boat parade,
    food and a gigantic fire works show to top it off. We will boil shrimp and have friends here for our meal. A lot of work
    but worth it. Fortunately have been getting my exercise in most days.

    Marie, How's it going with your starch solution? You have some good looking meals.

    Hope everyone is doing good.

    Nancy

    Hi everyone,
    Here is our first tomatoes one grape and one cherry. This is it, other than some green ones. I go Tuesday for my pep scan, I found out they are looking for it in my lymph nodes, apparently it is already in my lymph vasucular space, this means it's more aggressive, I talked to the nurse practitioner there and I didn't ease up.I knew they said it was somewhere else other than cervix that long day. That's why they want to do radiation and chemo other than radical hysterectomy, also the tumor is 3 cinemeters and they are afraid that I will have to go thru chemo and radiation anyway. What a mess. I just wanted to vent.Janice

    Good morning, losers!

    My, my Janice and Marie...you guys are burning the midnight oil!! :) I guess one of the reasons I'm up so early is that I go to bed early, huh?

    Janice...love your kitchen table!! Good you are persistent. The docs need to give it to you straight because you have to be informed...the good, bad, and ugly! Glad you decided to let us be your sounding board!

    Nancy..your community celebration is going be so fun! Enjoy!

    I am back down under 200 today...need to get farther away to make it stick. I am eating more protein and the full 1500 calories. Time will tell. Going to run errands today.


    Make it a great day, losers!

    hi all,

    yes connie, i have been following all of those em2wl people. it is really interesting. kind of liberating....just don't know if i have the mental capability to watch the scale go the wrong way intentionally...i actually think it is good for you to eat the full 1500! i actually lost weight when we started this whole merry go around by increasing my cals. i really don't think i have had a day under 1400 calls since we began.

    marie, glad the starch solution is still working for you! i bet you look great:)

    nancy, hope all is well with you and your husband is doing well!

    janice, i am sending huge cyber hugs your way. it sounds like you are wrapping your head around the issue and there is a good plan. keep coming here to vent, we are here for you!

    everyone, try and have a great day! i have not lost a lb this challenge but haven't gained either:)

    Stephanie

    Hi everyone,

    We just finished cutting the grass and doing other outside chores. It's hot but less humid and a nice breeze
    so we decided to take advantage of the nice weather and get some outside things done.
    Need to clean pontoon but that will not get done today.

    Janice, You can certainly vent all you want to and we are hear for you. I think of you often and send hugs and prayers
    your way.

    I am watching what I eat and the scales are remaining about the same. I am so much more active lately but seems to
    have no effect on my weight.

    Have a good day.

    Nancy

    Thanks everyone for your hugs, prayers and concern. My husband and I are trying to handle this, he was saying tonight anything you think about, or need, I will get you. It was so sweet, he is being very supportive. He is worried I will be so tired and wants to buy a TV for bedroom and a new tablet for me while I am getting chemo instead of my phone. I told him I don't plan on being bed ridden. He was teared up, he says he wants me to enjoy the sun and pool because I may not feel like it, later. He is trying to be so strong, so am I. He is planning on primming the car this weekend , so he can put it aside, so he can take care of me. I hope I don't need much help. Tuesday is just around the corner, another holiday worrying about this without treatment. Than j s again. Janice

    Janice..... <3<3<3 sending you hugs and plenty of prayers from Alaska. And they say everything is bigger up here than anywhere else.


    My weight has really been going nowhere according to my scale however my clothes are fitting better and better. My "other daughter" (Shaundra's best friend) commented today that my 2X shirts are way baggy even across the boobs. Shaundra last month called me saggy belly because all my shirts a saggy around the middle now. Sadly my shoulders have not shrunk at all and I wear a 2X because of the shoulders. I had to order a new dry suit because the other one started leaking. When it came it was rather snug. I called and they accidentally sent me a men's large rather than an XL!!!!!!!!! That was an awesome NSV!!!!!!!!

    Morning, friends! Happy Friday and Fourth of July weekend!

    Janice...your husband is a jewel, that's for sure! I think it's wonderful that he voices what is in his heart rather than hold it inside! Difficulties are better endured when they are shared. (BTW...I love my Ipad!)

    Hope y'all have a great weekend! Stay strong and enjoy your food choices!

    Ladies! I did it!!!! See pic below. I need to get far away from the 90s though because I know it could very quickly tic up and over again.

    Here's hoping the 80s go by quicker than the snails pace of the 90s.

    We spent yesterday at a 7 hour swim meet at Georgia Tech. I'm totally exhausted even though I wasn't the one swimming. It was my youngest's burthday, too. He turned 9! I can't believe it. Both kids competed in the championship and did well.

    Janice....I know the waiting is hard. Very soon you'll begin your road to recovery and we are all here to help you through!

    Thanks, Connie for the pic idea.
    Keep telling myself, if not now, when?

    Ruthie

    Hi,
    Ruthie-Congratulations, I hope the 80's go fast for you. I went thru the 90's fast and the 80's slow, in fact I am back in them. I'm sure you will get there quick. I like the toe nail polish. Thanks for your support

    Connie-Your right, my husband is a jewel, he has really been trying to be here for me. I feel he opened up more last night. I already have a Samsung Tablet, it's has really gotten slow. That's why I started using my phone, it's faster.

    Happy 4th of July weekend.
    I don't have any plans yet for the weekend, he had mentioned going away, and I said I didn't want to right now, it suppose to rain here Sunday and Monday. Thanks again everyone for everything.Janice

    YAY Ruthie!!! Congrats on the new numbers! You soooo deserve it. Yes...if not now, when? BTW...love the nail polish but too chicken to step out of my comfort zone! ;)

    I so agree...it takes so long and I need to get waaaaay past the first five numbers of the new low. I am hoping for a new low of 197-6 by mid July. I think once I get to195 I can breathe easier with no fear of sliding back to 200.
