Hi everybody. Sorry I have been so quiet lately. I have been busy here at home and I didn't read any posts for a couple days.
Marie...... So sorry to hear you fell again. You really need to be careful. Glad nothing more was hurt than just your pride.
Shirley...... Glad you had fun sailing. We have sailboat races every Wednesday during the summer months here. If my knees were better I would crew on one. The owners are always looking for volunteers to crew
And everyone else....... Keep going you are all doing great

Good morning, losers! Happy Wednesday!
Marie..sorry to hear that the dye they injected for the nuclear stress test made you sick. When I have mine, I sometimes get a little nausea. Did they tell you not to eat before coming? Hope you are feeling better today. It's amazing how our spouses will step up to the plate when they have to! Good for Jerry!
We had rain last evening and it's muggy and cloudy today. They say it will be cooling down soon which means I can get out for a good walk without the humidity.
I am down .06 this morning and will take it.
Going to the gym and will check back later.
Stay strong, losers!

Yes Connie I could not eat anything for 4 hours before the test no coffee or caffeine for 24 hours you are losing petty steady now . that is wonderful. I was losing some too until my eat in plan got disrupted
we had rain early this morning and the kitties love it..
We are headed to walmart. tis morning.
I think Our new neighbor's had a baby girl last night. for thhe front porch has pink balloons all over it tis morning..0 -
I got up early today and made some tomato sauce, we had alot of tomatoes, and I have already made salsa. Plus I made another tomato casserole, I have enjoyed not having to buy tomatoes this summer, they keep me busy either making something with them, or taking to my sisters and sharing, before they go bad. Next year we're going to do less tomatoes and somethibg else easy to grow. I bought a new battery for my scale yesterday, later on I'm going to compare it, the battery is probably 7 yrs old in it. I have been surprised how it has stayed in the same area, I just want to make sure the memory feature isnt malfunctioning, plus I'm sure the new battery wont hurt it. Its rained some today, and suppose to later on, the temperature is suppose to cool off here, too.
I hope everyone is doing good, tommorrows my husbands birthday, and instead of cake I may get him a pumpkin pie, he was talking about one last night, and I really dont like it enough to overeat it. But not sure yet, I already bought cake mixes and frosting, however I wont have to make the pie, I will just buy one and cool whip. Well I gotta run, I still have to figure out what to buy him for his birthday. Janice

Good Morning Misfits,
-Connie, Great loss!!
I am just staying the same and trying not to get too discouraged.
Working hard with no results is tough!
-Marie, Sorry you had a bad experience with the dye for stress test but glad they did get to finish the test.
Finished my exercise for today.

I had lost my post twice now so I will try one more time.
Everybody seems on track and back at the battle of losing weight again. I have started South Beach Phase 1 and
will probably be on it for a month to give myself a kick start. I have gained quite a bit this summer with
all the eating and boat cruising.
It was a lot of fun but glad we are winding down and back to a more normal
schedule. Just like school!
I went biking today with Hubby and we got caught in a rain storm and got soaked coming back. So our
designated plan got cancelled and we had to head back earlier than expected.
Marie - Sorry about the test and the awful reaction you had. I hope you get a good report.
Connie- You are doing great and steady at your weight loss.
Nancy - Are your tempertures getting cooler yet?
Esther - We have boat racing on Wednesday's here too but we are cruisers and not racers.
It's hard to find crew that will do it all summer.
Janice - We had a ton of cherry tomatoes this year. I have had to give some away.

This morning I saw the chiropractor who told me that I was healing but it would be slow. I was so happy to hear that there wasn't anything seriously wrong beyond what could be fixed with patience and moderation. In the afternoon I saw the women's health doctor about my bone density results. They are worse than last time two and half years ago but not yet osteoporosis. I am considering the drug suggested by the specialist I saw two years ago. Jake went with me to listen to what she said and ask questions. He thought that lifting weights would be dangerous for me with bone density issues and she put his mind at rest by telling him that lifting weights was the best exercise I could do, even better than walking and dancing.

Good morning, losers! Happy Thursday!
Shirley..glad to hear you are back on track! Vacation is great but structure is key!
Barbie..glad to hear your hip is healing and also the affirmation that pumping iron is again the way to go!
Nancy, Janice..good to see you!
Marie..hope you are doing well today.
Not much for me today..shopping and errands on the agenda.
Make it a great day, losers!

Went for a 50 min walk. I wanted to use my pedometer and replaced the battery to get my miles but its not working. I will
have Dave take a look at it. He is rebuilding the fence in our backyard replacing boards. They are slowly rotting out.
Not much going and that is fine with me. I did more groceries for South Beach and will be getting groceries until I have
all the staples together that I need. I got some new recipes on Pinterest today for the Phase 1 diet. Some crockpot
recipes that I can print out.
Forgot to weigh in this morning for the challenge so I will do that tomorrow. Still trying to get back to normal living and
taking off all the time.
Monday and Tuesday will be Isaac days for Grandma and Grandpa. Can't wait to see him.
Shirley0 -
hello running late again. I am doing fine.
I am on a new plan now. Don' know too much about it now it is thr OA ( overeatersfacebook) see you all tomorrow.[. Just wanted to report in0 -
Afternoon ladies,
Been busy cooking this morning. A friend broke her foot so I am making some food to take them.
Other than that I have done my weights for today.
-Shirley, We have a cool front coming in today. No rain but Saturday should be great.

The reason most people fail instead of succeed is that they trade what they want the MOST for what they want at the MOMENT.
I walked Sasha for an hour this morning but let Jim do the early morning walk and walk Brandy after breakfast. I went to line dance class and sat during the instruction and got up to dance. I felt well enough to walk and dance more, but I don't want to do anything that would jeopardize my ability to teach my two hour class tomorrow. I've stayed away from the exercise bike and the weights for the same reason. My first inclination is always to be more active but I am trying to be balanced. I just took the girls out one at a time for a short before bed walk. They got groomed today and they look beautiful Marie, I'm looking forward to hearing more about your new plan. 0 -

I had a busy day, and I went to see my sister, thats been sick. I also ran errands and walked 4.09miles. Today for lunch I went Taco Bell and had a steak taco and a chipolte griller, they were so good. I didnt look before I went but grillers are high in calories, next time 2 steak tacos, they were low in calories and good. Today was my husbands birthday and my daughter and grandson came over, we had a good night, and my husband cooked dinner on the grill. I made a cake they ate that I havent touched yet. My husband had asked for some special tools, I finally found, he was really happy with them. They are for building our new 69 Camaro, we had one before but we sold
it, it was fun, it won awards at car shows and he raced it. This one is going to be a street car. Here is a picture of it, it has brand new metal on it. Janice0 -
Janice what a nice garage you have and a vey pretty car . We have a taco bell just about 4 miles from our house But would not attempt to walk there. Streets are so busy. this old gal would get ran over.
My kitties I think is going thru the terrible two's nothing;' is safe from them they I lost my eye dropd We have each this house every where not to be found But check the fridge out and I had a new bottle that has not been open. Save I do not have to called in for more.
Barbie I am looking for a sponsor now on this plan. and I will keep in touch with you about it.There is a lot more on the the web site now than there was back when I tried it before. I remember you look into it before you join MFP I know I will always have this gaining problems with my congested heart failure. I am up 5 lbs tis morning. and since we are heading to the store this morning do not want to double up on the water pills till we get back
home.
Good morning all. Connie, Nancy we have some not posting as regular as they used too Sure do missed them
Have a blessed day

Good morning, losers! Happy Friday!
I'm right here, Marie, and just late getting here today. They have an OA group on this site that I looked at a couple of times and it seemed like a lot of good people over there.
Janice.. Your garage is so neat and clean! The perfect place to work! Will you help hubs restore the car?
Barbie..you are so right not to overdo it. We know our body better than anyone!
Just got back from a good workout at the gym. I'll come back later.
Connie0 -
Good Morning Misfits,
Seems much cooler since it is cloudy.
Just finished my exercise for today.
Not much planned for today. High School football tonight to watch our grandson play.
-Marie, Good luck on your new plan.
Happy Friday.

Marie-I didnt walk to Taco Bell, we have one about 2 1/2 miles away in town, I wouldnt walk there either. Thanks on the car and garage, you just see a small part of it. It is a disaster, right now, with tools and pieces of the car and a big rotissere in their.
Connie- The picture isnt new, that was a couple of months ago, I wish it was as clean now. The garage is really big, we built it that way, it has 3 rooms at the back part of the main garage, that has a bathroom, and 2 other rooms for tools and storage. Are you building a garage, ours is a hangout that has a big screen tv, bar table and chairs, refrigerator, and microwave. We also have a furnace, and hot water heater. We originally wired for air conditioning, but we have never put it in. Heck my electric bills and gas bills are high enough, its like we have 2 houses. Its a 30'x36'. The dogs come in the garage and hang out with us, they dont come in my house. Also they sleep in there when its cold weather, from around November thru March. I help my husband when he needs help with something, but mainly its him.
I hope everyone has a good weekend, its suppose to be cooler, going to try and walk more. I will check back later. Janice0
