Terri in Milwaukee – Along the same lines as Rosie’s thought… how about an American Express gift card.
Janetr OKC – To answer a question you asked several days ago… Yes, I had gastric bypass surgery in Feb 2014. Best decision I could have made for myself. As you well know surgery is just another tool in the weight loss box and isn’t a cure. I seem to be getting those pesky sugar cravings back under control but the past few days have been hard.

Hello Ladies!
Had a wonderful time this weekend at the resort in CT. I have been dubbed "The Official Wedding Crasher". The original plan was that I was to drive my friend to the resort where her neice was getting married because she is experienceing vision problems. She had a room reserved and I was going to share it with her and hang out at the resort. At the last minute her cousin's husband couldn't attend so it was decided that I would fill in for her husband at the reception. I was able to enjoy a wonderful Italian wedding and meet a slew of my friends' fun loving relatives. The food and drink were abundant and there was much dancing and merry making. I had a blast!
I took advantage of the resort's gym facilities and worked out before my friends were even awake. We then enjoyed an amazing post wedding brunch and I will admit I spared no cannolli! On the way home we stopped at a local Goodwill and scored some amazing bargains and then hit the outlet stores and I finally got some new bras. The girls are much happier now that they are encased in better fitting attire.
Today a dear friend and I celebrated our birthdays with a wonderul lunch and much needed girl time. I had a tuna steak and green salad. I only ate 1/2 and the other 1/2 will be dinner tomorrow night. I logged in the calories and I don't think I did too badly. We walked to lunch so I was able to get some extra steps in.
I decided not to weigh myself this morning, I know I gained and just don't need to know how much at this point. I'm back on the program until next weekend when it's off to the Cape. This has been a wonderful month for me.
Mindy...I have had a fitbit for almost a year now and have become addicted to it, but in the best way possible. One of the women I met this weekend at the wedding upon learning that I lost weight using MFP (which she is on) and the fitbit went out yesterday before she got home and purchased a fitbit. She is all connected and involved in a challenge with me. In my case, it is the combination of MFP and fitbit which made me successful. I hope it works as well for you. You can message me if you want to do challenges or if I can help in any way.
Gotta run...

Just a comment on posts, long or short, from my point of view it really has little to do with who the poster is or the length of the post, it is more about where I am - If I feel a time crunch I skim, the more pushed for time the worse job I do of skim-reading, if I take the time to check in a couple of times a day, I read more carefully and enjoy hearing about everyone’s lives more. Granted occasionally I will find something that I skim by as it is not something I am that interested in, but mostly I find it amazing that this many gals with such different lives have chosen to be support to each other. I wonder if a group of guys could do this and if the political leaders of the world could just see what we can do they could all learn something…
Heather – glad you are feeling a bit better. I needed down time from all my company and
Terri – what about a gift card, one of our larger second hand stores even does them, and that is a great way when you are losing weight.
So I have a question, I need to find 10-15 minutes – with room for expansion into 30 minutes for exercise (floor style – planks, stretches, leg lifts ext. ) and I just can’t get committed. So this is my schedule, now of course life takes it’s turns and I don’t always stick to this… like right now when I am writing you, but the machines are cranking away in the background… I am really a morning person, but need that prime time for the difficult embroidery projects… so where do you think I should carve out a window for my exercise… I did try in the evening before reading, but just so exhausted I found it awfully difficult.
Mon, Wed up at 5:30-5:45 a gal friend stops by for coffee from 6:30- 7:30 then 1 ½ hour dog walk, breakfast and then to work (embroidery business in the extra guest room) usually between 9 and 9:30 work until noon, 15-20 min for lunch, then back at it until 5pm (ish) 5-7 dinner break, then back at paper work, emails, billing etc. till 8:30pm read from 8:30-9 or 9:30
Tues – up at 5:30-5:45 out the door 15 minutes later, 30 min dog walk, breakfast and then on the road by 7am to hike with my hiking group, home by 10am then to work (embroidery business in the extra guest room) work until noon, 15-20 min for lunch, then back at it until 5pm (ish) 5-7 dinner break, then back at paper work, emails, billing etc. till 8:30pm read from 8:30-9 or 9:30 then sleep.
Thursday and Friday up at 5:30-5:45 out the door 15 minutes later, 45 min dog walk, breakfast (make a snack and pack water) and then to work at a gardening clients, on site by 8am latest, leave the clients by noon, have my snack – run errands home by 2pm, second snack, clean up and at my embroidery business by 2:30 work until 5pm (ish) 5-7 dinner break, then back at paper work, emails, billing etc. till 8:30pm read from 8:30-9 or 9:30 then sleep.
Sat, Sun – up at 5:30-5:45 out the door 15 minutes later, 1 ½ hour dog walk, breakfast and then to work (embroidery business in the extra guest room) usually between 8 and 8:30am work until noon, 15-20 min for lunch, then back at it until 5pm (ish) 5-7 dinner break, then back at paper work, emails, billing etc. till 8:30pm read from 8:30-9 or 9:30 then sleep.
Ok hahaha can you tell I like routines????

short day at work for me today as I work this weekend.. first day with no Keri.. and of course the troll up to her no good ways, I did most of the work and she runs and hides when there isnt a patient that she A- cares to talk to, B- has to collect money from.. she has even hidden under her desk.. really how juvenile...
Tomorrow is my long day 9-6 .. 14,000 steps today.. im gonna keep it up.. and when I feel like going to the gym, that will be back up. as they say in the movie Trading Places..... Looking good Louis ~ Feeling good Louis lol0 -

Kim, what worked for me to carve out more time for exercise without messing up the prime morning time that was already allotted to something else was to start going to bed five minutes earlier each night andgetting up 5 minutes earlier in the morning until I was reading for only about 15 minutes before my bedtime and getting up 30-60 minutes earlier to allow more morning time for exercise and business. If you read at bedtime from 8:30-8:45 and got up around 4:30-5:00 you'd could fit in 15-30 minutes of exercise after the dog walk. I love routines, too, and they allow me to get a lot done and still have time to pamper myself.
On Mondays we always take a nap because I have a friend who calls at 8:30. I had a great plan for the day until Jake got up from the breakfast table and said he was sleepy and went into the bedroom and slept until lunchtime. I know he wanted me to nap with him, but after breakfast on Monday is one of my times to get paperwork done and I didn't want to miss it. I got most of my chores done and he was a darling and stayed extra quiet so I could nap in the afternoon.

Well good news today. So I had a doctors appointment for 1# to get a letter stating what my goal weight should be for my TOPS (take off pounds sensibly) weightloss group, 2# to get the pre breast exam before the mammogram, and 3# to get blood drawn to see what my cholestrol is presently. My blood pressure was 126/72 so I was happy about that. The letter states that my goal weight should be between 135-145 lbs. My heart did a flip flop because I personally think I will be a stick if I went that low...Hopefully when I get to 180 I can have that re-evaluated and a new realistic weight be put down. Until then at least I have a letter in my TOPS file that the recorder lady has been pestering me about :-) By the time we arrived home I had a message from the ultrasound people and my mammogram is this wednesday. Its weird to have things get taken care of quicker out on the coast here. In CA it was. "Your appt is scheduled 4 months in advance". The last time I fasted and had my blood drawn it was in 2014 so it will be interesting to see if my cholestrol numbers have gotten better. It was 231 then.
So I have gotten caught up on all my womanly scheduled events. PAP is in Oct, Colonoscopy not until 2017, so its nice to be in control of all that stuff.
Today I snored out on the balcony lying in the sun. Oh what the neighbors must think! I put up a quilt so they saw nothing...maybe they thought a seagull was hurt somewheres?
Tonight is chicken-fried cube steak. I get 2 ozs of it, plus 1/2 cup of mashed potatoes. No gravy though, just maybe some spices. I think I will just fry one piece without breading it. Then I can put ceyanne pepper on it. You know I even put that pepper on my eggs over easy! Just on the yok part before I flip them though.
Nightly before I go to sleep I mentally think of myself at weights lower than what I am now. Then I go down 5 more lbs and feel what it feels, maybe a new shirt that I know if I get down to that weight I can wear, how I will move etc....and somethings I actually get to onederland...but most of the times I fall asleep before I get there....Its a nice exercise!
Take care ya'll
Becca just thinking herself slim!

Heather, are you sure you are using the correct charger and cable? I sometimes try to use a different one and it won't charge, then switch back to the right one and it charges. Something about amps or something like that. Each device is a little different. I have one USB plug that is marked...ipad, iphone, android.0

Hey Gals,
I get an A+ for preparing for wellness today and an F for excersize...or a zero actually. I'm gonna take someone's advice and get up a little earlier and excersize first thing THEN shower and dress for the day..I have been getting to bed earlier 1:20 last night tonight I'll go for 1am. Back up 20 minutes a day. Today I fooled around too long playing with my new FITBIT. It was fun. Chris helped me sync it to MFP. Thank you. Pathetically my baseline steps (no excersize no work today) is only nearing 2000. Wow. Ok so tomorrow I'll do 3000. I also found my vinyl covered weights and brought them down to the living room. I also went to Kohls w my Kohls cash I bought a 28 piece Rubbermaid flex and seal set which I plan on preparing a few serving size meals in advance....and then I went to WF (whole foods). Used my discount and got Coho Salmon. I found out that COHO salmon is wild caught which clearly had almost no fat marbling..unlike the delishious looking farm raised next to it which was super marbled. Big diff in calories too I imagine. I also got red bell peppers, asparagus and watermelon. Tonight I cooked the veggies and fish by roasting them. I put a Tb olive oil in the baking dish and tossed the veggies w it first. They were AWESOME. I made enough for several nights and have the handy sized containers to boot. The salmon I only made two servings of as I won't eat cooked fish that is more than one night old. Then I made a big pot of Jasmine rice w measured olive oil and a few chicken bullion cubes so I could skip the butter. Measured out suppers and three more servings. I'm gonna try and post a pic. It ended up being a bit too much food but my girls (Whinny and Lulu) helped me out.

Mindy, good job! I find preparing ahead makes it all that much easier to stay away from mindless munching. Be sure to plan for high protein snacks when you get hungry between meals, almonds, hard boiled eggs, rice cakes with peanut butter, and cheese are what I like.

Hi all just marking my spot. I'll be back tomorrow to chat. Meg from Omaha0

Call me crazy but I love to see other people happy and succeeding .
Good Morning Ladies,
Carey, sounds like fun times with the kids.
CarolNC, so glad you checked in. Sorry you are still having problems and wish I could do something to help. Hang in there and know we are rooting for you!!! (((((Hugs)))))
Katla, while reading your post I was thinking about the engineered wood floors. They are so beautiful as well as durable and you can always put area rugs where wanted. I don’t know how expensive they are but that would be my only suggestion.
Betty, glad you are back on the right track today. Good girl!
Vicki, I hope you get to everything on your list today and tomorrow. I also think of all of you often and remember you in my prayers each night. You ladies have become an important part of my life. And I thank you.
Rita, sorry you didn’t feel well over the weekend. Sending healing thoughts your way.
Pip’s got water dogs. Aren’t they cute when wet???
Terri, can you not just get a gift certificate/gift card for your DD?? Even if you withhold it until you get the size, if that is what you want? The debit card works but is there any penalty if she tries to go over the balance? I don’t even know what to say about midnight cereal eating???? *shaking head* What do you think????
Sylvia, I was ready to throw you a life ring if you were drowning in all that chocolate. Sorry about the DIL being back in the picture. What is her story? Other than the bottle. Does she treat your DS badly? I hope Molly is okay.
Mary, lots of grands having birthdays. Must have been a popular month for births? You have fun at the fair and Happy Anniversary!!!! You are just newlyweds.
Heather, so happy for you that the Tube strike is off. I know you felt tied down not being able to go to London. Have fun with the grands and kids on Thursday.
Chris, it sounds like you had a blast crashing the wedding. Lol Good for you.
I took my friend to the doctor today and it wasn’t a good visit. He told her that he can’t do any surgery until she has the test that was screwed up last week. A PET scan, I think?? Anyway he saw the cyst on the xray and needs this test to determine if it is Cancer. Then he said, it could be bone Cancer and it could have spread throughout her body. Well that scared the Hell out of her. Last week it was a cyst and now this. Anyway it’s finally scheduled for Thursday and of course no results until Monday so more waiting while she is in pain. Please keep her in your prayers for those that pray.
I hope all of you have a healthy and happy day.
Words I live by:
Savor. I have to slow down and savor every bite.
and
Opportunity. Each day offers new opportunities for good health and happiness if we just look for them and choose them.
I Love you,

Does anyone know of any magazine that is geared towards exercises for "mature" people. I'm so sick and tired of looking at ads for people in their 20's and 30's, all the articles seem to be for 20's and 30's. I can't relate. Is there any magazine that deals with the issues of 50-60-and 70 year olds?
Michele in NC
Have you ever tried More magazine? It's not an exercise magazine specifically but the target audience is women age 40 and older.

Omg!!!!! What a terrible thing to say to a patient. Will say prayers n send to a prayer group. Someone needs to tell this dr what he did was cruel. Gayle Minneapolis0 -
Miriam, I was 1 of 5 kids also. The middle child, two older sisters and 2 younger brothers. my sister and I are 18 months apart then there were 8 years and then the boys came and they are 14 months apart. When Mom and Dad were dating and talking about children, Mom said she wanted 3 girls but Dad said he wanted 2 boys. So they both got what they wanted.
Joyce, Indiana
I am also the middle of five children. An older sister, older brother, and two younger sisters. One sister is just one year and 15 days younger than me. I often wonder what people thought when they saw my mom, six months pregnant with a 9 month old baby and two other toddlers. There's a 4 year break before the last child so we liked to tease her that she was the afterthought. I liked to try to get sympathy by complaining I was the "baby of the family" for the shortest amount of time but that never worked. They all frustrate the bejeevers out of me some days but I love coming from a large family.

The party is over. Whew! It went really well. DGD loved her cake and her presents and seemed really happy overall. On the way here from gymnastics she told me that the best thing about her birthday was getting to spend it with her family. AWWW!
The DIL came and brought her iPad, on which she pulled up a FaceTime chat with her son (who is living with his dad while she is "recovering" from alcoholism), so that was really nice. The kids are really close to Austin. He's a really nice kid. So it was nice that he got to be part of her birthday.
What DGD wanted more than anything was a thing called a Furby. I found one on sale for $15, down from $64, so I was worried something was wrong with it, but it works just fine, and she was really thrilled with it. My son couldn't afford to buy one for her, so he was glad I did. He's a lot more grateful for the stuff I do than he used to be. He gave me a big hug and thanked me for doing so much for her birthday. I almost cried.
And the extra cake went home with them! I had a very, very small piece and no ice cream, so I didn't do too badly. That cake was three layers tall, with fudge filling and sprinkles on top. Everybody went "OOOOHHHH" when they saw it. Hubby took pictures but they didn't come out very well.
Well, I'm done for the night. I hope you all had as nice a day as I did.
Sylvia0 -
Mindy, congrats on the steps you are taking toward a new healthy fit life style....you are doing a great job. If you ask anyone who has a great plan or schedule, you'll find that they started with baby steps and gradually added new pieces to the routine.
Becca, I watched the Long Long Trailer video you recommended and also the trailer for the movie on You Tube and loved it. I've seen the movie several times and it's funnier every time.

I agree with what Barbie said. I find it easier to commit to if I do it first thing in the morning.
Becca - your mental exercise of imagining yourself weighing less actually has scientific backup for success. Your brain can help you to accomplish your goals!
We had a good time celebrating our DGS's birthday. We are so fortunate to have these little ones in our lives. Have a great night everyone!
Mary from Minnesota0 -
I am now asking for suggestions to support my DD in another way. She claims to have lost a pant size, announcing it on Facebook. I congratulated her, and asked her how I could be supportive from 4 hours away... I'm thinking about giving her a Debit card attached to my checking account, so I can leave it almost completely empty until she tells me her new size and how much money she needs for 1 new outfit. I can't just trust her with a credit card (she has proven unreliable in the past).

hmmm.... earlier??? so Barbie and anyone else out that early (so a 5:15 out of the house) are you comfortable walking that early - my neighborhood is safe but I don't know especially as it gets into winter and darker... I actually usually sleep more in the winter and walk later.... I am in a suburb area, and we walk near an open space area, but on the sidewalk.
maybe I am just a worry wart/scaredy cat

Kim, we moved here in August so it wasn't so dark the first time I went out early....I gradually went out earlier as I got more comfortable with my surroundings. Now I have no trouble walking in the dark even in the winter when the sun doesn't come up until 8AM.....like anything else that has worked in my life---I took baby steps.0
