    i feel good today! going to just stick to my numbers and see what happens. for me to lose a lb a week, number is 1360. i feel best and most satisfied when i have a lot of protein and veggies. i had just oatmeal for breakfast yesterday and did not feel satisfied, then an apple. i really think the protein makes me feel satiated. we will see. i am not going to eat back my exercise calories except on occasion, think they are inflated anyway. thanks for the advice everyone!!

    janice, glad for the positive results. good luck ruthie!!

    Thanks everyone, I still have a couple of more hurdles with the new pap smear and the ultrasound, but I am relieved those 2 test were negative. I am not trying to be negative just cautious since there's more to go. I hope everyone is doing good. My navy beans and cabbage I made were good. See ya tomorrow. Janice

    Morning, friends!

    Ruthie...hope your scan turns out okay.

    It's a beautiful day here in SC. I'm going to do some housework before heading out to do errands.

    Stay strong, losers!

    I just returned from an ultrasound. Everything turned out well. Yay!! What a relief.

    @janiceclark08 hoping the same for your remaining tests. I really tried not to worry (I'm a worrier) by telling myself if something is there worrying about it won't change that. I did ok with that.

    How's the housing market Connie? Around Atlanta, houses are selling quickly.

    Steph- no need to starve! We all need to be able to enjoy each day:-) while accomplishing our goals.

    Hi,
    Ruthie-So happy to hear your ultrasound was good, that's what I hope to hear Tuesday.

    I weighed today 184.4, I would like to get to back where I was in December in the 170's. The extra 5 pounds seems like 20, it just wants to stay with me. I have been distracted, and will get back there sooner or later. Still counting calories, apparently I need to cut them down. I am having 1480 calories a day, plus eating back exercise calories usually. I know that's the problem. It's in the 50's here today and rainy, I had to be home today, we had car parts delivered, not a bad day to stay in. Of course it's Derby week, the weather is so iffy this time of year. Atleast Oaks, Derby, and Mothers Day are suppose to be nice and warm. Gotta go.Janice

    @janiceclark08...the important thing is you recognize and understand what the problem is!

    @eyegirl777va...I wish I could help, but I have premium so I don't get the pop-ups.

    @JLoRuthie...yay!!

    Hi,
    Marie-Your salad looks good, I dont see the potatoes, they must be under it. I need to make a big salad, if I havent had one for a week, I crave it. Normally I will make up a big salad in a 9x13 pan with lid, and have it for a few days for my husband and I. Surprisingly it stays good.

    Connie-Any bites on your house yet? Hopefully it sells quick and you dont have to deal with it all summer.

    Ruthie-I have been trying not to worry, I am a natural worrier, I get it natural, my woman was a big one and so is my oldest sister. I will be glad when Tuesday is over.

    Nancy-Sorry I dont know how to get rid of them, I think they do it to get everyone to purchase the premium, I'm not.

    I hope everyone is doing okay. Have a good day. Janice

    Waiting for hubby to return, he is helping a friend move a bed upstairs. Our friend Tom has his house
    up for sale and his real estate agent is trying to get him to do some staging. Poor Tom, he doesn't have a clue what to do. He has two daughters, grown and married, but I don't think they are any help right now.

    Still waiting to have supper and its late, getting hungry. We are having leftovers from last night's dinner
    out with my sister and boyfriend, we celebrated her birthday.

    Today was 45 min walk around the neighborhood, feed all my plants outside, dusted the upstairs, did
    groceries and still doing the Fitbit Challenge "Workweek Hustle" tomorrow is the last day over 14,000
    steps so far.

    Janice - Glad to hear your test results were negative. What a relief! Same for you Ruthie. <3

    I hope anyone here trying to find a plan that works for them will have good results soon.

    Have a good evening.

    Shirley

    Good Afternoon,
    It's Derby weekend, today is the Oaks, the weather is better today, which is good for all the people in from out of town. We are invited to his nieces derby party for the family. I don't really want to go, sometimes they are just too much to be around for along time. They make up all kinds of stupid games, they insist on you playing, instead of just hanging out and watching races and cocktails and enjoying your day, it's real scheduled. I plan on doing whatever I feel like, no plans this weekend, just what I decide to get into. I hope everyone has a good Mothers Day. Janice

    Hi !

    Quick check in as we are in Florida at the beach. Just needed a change of scenery.

    I like the beach best in the fall. Summer is way too hot. The weather now is perfect but the ocean and pool are cold.

    It's so hard to not overeat while here. So many good restaurants and bakeries. I'm tracking and really trying to be on target.

    Happy Mother's Day everyone!!!!!!!!! Is has been great today. The sun was shining and it was 63!!!!!! I broke out the tank top and shorts to walk the dogs. Yes we Alaskans think that is warm. So far I'm getting a great base so when summer hits and I am out in the yard I hopefully won't burn so badly. B

    Good morning, losers! Happy Monday!

    I hope all of you lovely ladies had a super Mother's Day! I enjoyed the weekend with family. I don't have a lot planned for the day except to enjoy this beautiful weather and get a few chores done. The scale has not budged in a while, but I am staying the course as experience has taught me that it will happen in its own time if I continue to do the right thing.

    Make it a great day, losers!

    hi all,

    hope you had a great weekend and a happy mother's day!

    connie, maybe one meal of something off but within calories will get you moving again. i guess some carbs? I've been doing a lot of reading and it is often suggested. just not everyday, lol!

    have a great monday everyone!!

    @slw19 I am hoping that my having a small piece of buttercream cake and some banana pudding yesterday will do the trick. I expected a gain this morning, but weight was the same. While the sweets were good at that moment, later on, my stomach did not agree!

    I hope everyone enjoyed their day yesterday. We went to a buffet for Mothers Day, we took my MIL
    who is 90 years old. The variety of food is always good and one room with just desserts. I did
    have some but small ones. Yes..the scale was up and since I weigh in on Monday's now. Another week to go and see what happens. We see Isaac (grandson) tomorrow and staying overnight. :D

    Hi Folks
    I just been hanging out wit Jerry watching TV with him.
    we were to get some storms this afternoon but so far none has came this way.

    I am doing eat on my starch solutions. Wish I had known about this long time ago.
    Feeling so much better. still have been going up and down but I got high hopes. i am completely happy with it. and so easy to prepare my meals . I steam me a big bowl of red potatoes every morning and have them as my main focus. Have join several groups on it and have learn to prepare them potatos so many different ways. right now i am dicing a potato and adding it to my salads with chopped raw veggies.and fat free Italian dressing. I eat 2 fruit a day. Alice always said I eat weir I do keep my starches food to one servings per meal on account of my Diabetics and it is running great so is my blood pressure I have not touch the salt shaker in a few days. I still get some in my dressing tho. Need to learn to make me some no salt dressing.
    Well Better go.
    Have a wonderful day.
