My daughter is still carrying that baby! They did a stress test today and baby is doing great. She is 12 days overdue now and irritable. I went with her to the midwife and afterwards we went shopping and got pedicure with extra foot massage to try to spark some contractions. She told me that she was giving up being pregnant for Lent ..... she just has to get the baby on board for that. Lol. I told her 4th babies can be stubborn. Her sister was 13 days late. That did not help her mood. Lol.

Waiting in Houston,
Marcelyn

Pip, There is a couple in my neighborhood who have an Airstream and two Great Danes....naturally I think of you and your Airstream and big dogs.

Kate UK Anyone else had this feeling of I'm fed up with this, I want to eat anything I like and to h**ll with it

YES! On a regular basis. However, having come this far (17 lbs) I squash that thought however I can! We can and will do this!

Becca - I found the calendar by doing a Google search for "calendar 2017". (It wasn't on FB. Just the idea.)

Here's a copy attached here.

Call me crazy but I love to see other people happy and succeeding .

Good Evening My Dear Friends,

Lanette, congrats on the loss. Keep up the good work.

Lisa, great work on the not smoking and how wonderful that Cory is going the same route.

Beth, that is wonderful news about your mother.

Rebecca, welcome. This is a wonderful place for support and information. Please tell us a little about yourself to help us get to know you. And please sign each post with your name and a location for those of us with short memories.

Ginger, that is one big pig. How long have you had her?

Allie, I’ve heard of the Android boxes for tv. Let us know how that works out.

Heather, thanks for the pep talk. I needed that. You set such a good example.

Kelly, OMG you are going crazy with your exercise. Way to go. Keep posting that and maybe I’ll consider doing a few more of mine.

Yinka, what a nice surprise visit. I know you enjoyed looking through the scrap book.

Beth, that is scary about your friend. I hope they just stop as quickly as they started.

to any Newbies. Come often and join in the chat. This thing works!! Please sign your post with what you want to be called. It makes it easier for us to respond to you. Also a location is great, be it specific or general. We are happy to have you join us.

I had a doctor’s appointment this afternoon with an ENT doctor. I have been having very sharp pains in my left ear for about 3 weeks. Of course as I got close to the appointment the pain went away the last two days. After a through exam that was not all pleasant, she couldn’t find anything wrong. At least she did rule out some things and said it sounded like a nerve pain which could have been caused by a number of different things. Hopefully the pain won’t come back. I love reading all your advice, food choices and goals. You are such inspirations to me and I celebrate your victories. ((((Hugs)))) to those that want or need them.

Sending love, good thoughts and sunshine to all of you.

I Love you

Fling to bed now after a disastrous evening snacking, biscuits, peanut butter on toast. Not sure why as I had been good all day. Will need to think about why I did it, I did the same 2 days ago but that was after drinking wine.
Tomorrow is another day and will try not let myself be derailed. I've been doing this for a year now and still have a couple of pounds to lose to get to goal, wondering how to get past this time of up and down pounds. Feel like I'm just tired of it but know I need to keep going otherwise I won't be able to maintain the loss. Anyone else had this feeling of I'm fed up with this, I want to eat anything I like and to h**ll with it

Kate UK

Absolutely, I think probably the majority of us here have done that, thus we are here for support and to support one another. Good job on stopping and going to bed.

Pip, love the salt/pepper shakers. My MIL used to collect them. I wish now I had taken a set when she moved into the nursing home. The one we are using now is one she gave us a Christmas present in 1972. We really need some new ones!

Becca, the game I stopped was Egg Buddies. You collected these pretty eggs for points and some of the eggs had letters on them and every 6 hours you were assigned a new word. The S was terrible to find!!!! I played it for about 7 years and just had no more passion for it anymore. A lot of the face book friends I had were for playing the game. After I deleted the app, I remembered that I should have removed the friends first. After playing with or years, some of them have become good friends so I don't want to delete them, but others I have no desire to keep.

Went to see the nurse practitioner today about the new pain I have in my upper back around my lower bra line. I had felt it about 2 weeks ago but just a couple of days ago was able to find it. So when she looked at it, I have a huge bruise on my back where the deep pain is. And part of the bruise shows healing and it is a big one. I have no idea where I bruised it except from the recliner has this area that really hurts in that area. I have a big fluffy pillow there now and it doesn't hurt. She gave me a script for cortisone dose pack.

Watching an old movie that I have always wanted to see, John Q. It's about a man who goes ballistic when his son needs a heart transplant and they don't have insurance for it. His employer had changed from a PPO to a HMO without letting the employees know. He even offered to kill himself and offer his own heart.

Mia, loved the pictures. I can't imagine what it would be like to be in a pool of any kind with such an animal like a dolphin. Your picture was beautiful. I hope you have another 30 years.

My 67th birthday is tomorrow and we went to Red Lobster for supper. We didn't want to go tomorrow because it was Friday. We have gone to Red Lobster on a weekend before and even with going at 4 PM waited for 30 minutes. Our waiter said that we made a wise decision because tomorrow starts the first day of Lent. I asked for a take out box and cut my baked potato in half and also took half the broiled flounder in the box. Of course I did eat 2 cheddar biscuits!

Charlie asked what I asked for my birthday. We are putting about $13000 in home improvements so I really didn't want anything. My house slippers are falling apart. I have nice fuzzy warm house slippers that go up around my ankles. But in the middle of the night when I have to go potty, I have to be able to slip into something quick. Those slippers are falling apart, they are very old. So I found a pair at Walmart for $2.88!!!!! Happy birthday Joyce. It was what I needed and asked for.

Joyce. Happy Birthday to you, from this gal in Oregon!! Hugs!

I used to play Yoville, and farmville. Those are really addictive! But its nice to not check in!.. Glad you got your slippers!

Becca - glad you got the calendar. I think it'll be motivating.

DJ - We've had Miss Piggy for 8 years. She was a baby when we got her. Our then 3 year old granddaughter named her. I think DH over-feeds her! I'm always fussing at him about giving her too much food scraps.

Hello all! We moved to a new (to us) house, the 18 year old cat promptly disappeared, and the scale won't budge... life!!

Blessings to all.

Margaret: I'm in agreement with you about split pea soup. :sick: My DH and (I assume) lots of others think it is just wonderful. :noway:

Kate UK: I do eat anything I want & don't eat things I dislike. I just measure the portions and count the calories. Sometimes the portions are very small or I have to pay for them with a load of exercise, but I am free to choose what I like.

Marcelyn: Keeping you and your daughter in my prayers. I hope for an easy delivery and a healthy baby.

Pip: So cute! Who knew there were Airstream salt and pepper holders? :huh:


I've made plans to go out to the stable tomorrow afternoon to work with Arrow. I plan to stick with lunging him tomorrow. I'm taking a conservative approach to riding on my own at this point because I'm the only driver and have to be fit enough to take DH in for his next eye surgery this coming week. I will get to ride during my lesson on Saturday & the support of my teacher will make me feel more secure.
