    Lost this week. That's 2 weeks in a row. When walking last night, I said to myself a 1/2 lb loss would be acceptable -- if I didn't lose at least that I would have been upset. However, a 2 1/2 lb loss would be great.

    Holy smokes I surprised myself at 2.6lb loss.

    The ticker says 3lb loss...that's from the MFP starting weight. When I factor in the weight gain from 3 weeks ago that put me at my heaviest weight, my weight loss is really 7lbs.

    So off to curves today then detailing the car for the big show tommorrow. Later cub scout meeting.

    Happy Friday to all!

    Weight in at 257 so its a lost from last week. Would of been better if I hadn't over ate at lunch yesterday. Well I am now back to my original starting point so glad for that. Since back I lost a total of 5 lbs Hopefully I keep this up and next week my ticer will show a lost.
    Good Cindy and Barb!!!

    Had a lunch date w/hubby..... yeah... chinese buffet... not so yeah.... however I did well - mostly chicken, no fried foods, fruit, of course ice cream (only small amount). That was approx 7+hours ago. I'm not hungry but I am eating yogurt/cereal to get me through the night.

    I didn't log lunch in .... so I'm not logging in my dinner of cereal & yogurt.

    Have a good night all.

    Hey ladies.....
    Yesterday, went to a car show/race & out to dinner. Dinner wise, I ate a big salad and took home 90% of my boneless ears & tails (chicken). I did have a dessert.
    Today, hubby took me and middle child out. I got a salad & had a kiddie ice cream.

    Did walk around the car show/race and today did walk around the flea market. We leisurely walk outside the market for about 3 hours. Unsure how long I was walking around on Saturday.

    Saturday the car did trophy. yeah. Today, hubby purchased two birds - another parakeet for me and a cocktiel for him. What I didn't realize is the cocktiel has a 20 year life expectancy. 20 years! My other two parakeets have adapted to the new parakeet well. Could be worse... he could have gotten a bigger bird w/a 30-50 year life expectancy or another dog.


    Sindy - feel better soon. I understand dental pain.

    hey my friends!! i am so ready for a new week to start. i struggle so bad when dh is home on vacation. we were able to go on a road trip yesterday...about 45 minutes NE of LaCrosse, WI ( 4 hrs from home ) much prettier farther north. saw reds, yellows, oranges with green pines! nice contrast.

    good job to all the losers and well, to the rest of us....keep on keepin' on! i'm gonna try harder this week.

    Vita ~ girl, you need a break. sorry all that life is dealin' ya. i will keep you in my daily prayers...better days ahead! ((hugs))
    Jacque ~ you are doing so well with logging and exercising! ur a motivatin' ME!
    Cindy ~ do take care....hope your tooth ache gets better. we've been using our leaf blower for the leaves on the deck...still waiting for 95% to fall yet. it is so dry here, i have to rinse the windshield on my car, every day!
    Barb ~ i'm lovin' the hardware for that plum crazy! and the new critters at the house....fun! we have un-welcomed guests at our home now....mouse and/or mice in our garage and no-see-ums. :angry: ok, i'm ready for a hard frost/freeze to lower the insect population...

    hi all... here's to a start of a good week.

    Miss V - sending good vibes your way.
    Sindy - hoping you find relief from your dental pain today.
    Jacque -- keep moving.
    Kelly - The colors seem pretty. Right now we're still in shades of green. Not for long....

    So my new parakeet has taken position as alpha bird. First, this one's bigger & the colors are quite bright compared to the 2 birds purchased at the local livestock aution. New bird, Blue, has taken position on the highest perch while the others the lower perch.

    Hubby decided since he's being medically released from work he doesn't care about his weight. UGH.... I asked him would he at least maintain. When he's ready to loss for him... he will. Before we meet he was over 300. Then he dropped to 185 (which was his weight early dating).

    Welcome to all who wish to join.

    And jacque -- kindly request you do not bring your new puppy to my house. Between the fish bowls (2 are mine), the fish tanks (2 - both Dave's to care for), my parakeets, Dave's cocktiel and his dog -- there's enough non human in my house!

    Good Tueday everyone! well was over my calories by 93 so need to try a little harder today. Worked out at the Gym last night then walked the mall after dinner with the kids.

    Jasper411- Hi my name is Jacque and I live in Texas. We weight in Fridays. Look for a new thread Friday morning which will say Smokin hot green peppers 10/15 wk 42. Kelly will usually post it on Thursday. The walking challage is we are walking to the other members in the group. I am walking from Texas to iowa to see Kelly. When done I will then head to another member. You can do a ticker if you like or just record in your post and let evryone know how you are doing.

    Barb-the dog got chased by a large dog in our neighborhood last night and we still can not find her, I think someone picked her up.
    Kelly-hope you are doing good!
    Cindy- tooth pain any better
    Miss V- Hope the hives are getting better, praying

    Jacque - if your dog shows up in NJ, I'll KNOW you sent it my way.

    A co-worker brought in cake leftover from an event she had yesterday. It's from one of the better bakeries in the area.
    I will not sample... I will not have a piece... no sampling.

    Morning Pepper's and Welcome new Pepper's:bigsmile:

    Well walked all over Fair in Topsfield, MA yesterday (over 3 hours), dentist was closed:sad: They called me this morning and I have an appointment at 1PM. My boss called this morning and said she would not be in until 11:30, I just hope she gets here by then so I can make it to my appointment. The pain is so bad today, jaw pain and head ache to go with it. I think I just cracked or broke a couple of fillings, at least money wise hope that is what I did.


    Welcome Jasper :flowerforyou: the Pepper's are great for support through all the ups and downs.

    Jacque you are doing really well, just move on what is done is done, when I went to the fair yesterday, I had to have the fried dough, but all the walking canceled it out and had a very small dinner. Plus not eating all of my exercise calories, but hope auntie flow goes away before weigh in on friday,:grumble: cant drink enough water because of the tooth sensitivity, have to drink hot water and only oatmeal or very soft foods.

    Well dont know if I will be up later, but will try to check back in. Have a great day. :bigsmile:

    I'm avoiding that cake in the office. No cake for me.

    hi ladies....

    last 2 morning's have started off good...but from noon on, eating out of control. guess I am officially in my funk......plus missing my daily banana. will be getting some groceries tomorrow.

    my bio mom came to visit for a while this am. she gave me a pearl/diamond ring that was my great, great grandmothers. she told me I should have it b/c I am the first born grand daughter. made me feel kinda special.....but, yesterday with my head a mess, I chewed off ALL my fingernails.

    thinking of you all....take care
  • PlumCrazyGirl
    PlumCrazyGirl Posts: 1,463 Member
    Kelly - you are special.
    Similiar to you - I don't chew off my fingernails but rip off the cuticles. Once my left ring finger got badly infected from a cuticle I ripped off. To the point where surgery was being discussed since antibotics wasn't quite working as quickly as my primary wanted. Eventually antibotics kicked in and no surgery.

    Good Afternoon Pepper's,
    Well I have an infection under my tooth, so they put me on antibiotics and gave me pain stuff. I go back next week so swollen they could not do or see anything. They said it should feel better after 24 hours. He does not think anything is wrong with the tooth. So I am happy about that. No bill just copay for perscriptions. :drinker:

    still cant eat right now.

    Kelly I cant go with out my banana, have to have one everyday and as Kelly said you are special :heart:

    Well gotta go talk later. :bigsmile:

    PlumCrazyGirl Posts: 1,463 Member
    Sindy -- that's what I had a few weeks ago... an infected tooth.

    Did a 40 minute walk during the fitness period .... and now I'm off to curves.
    May even do another 40 min walk after curves....
    Somehow I need to do something to rid the 2 donuts I had yesterday.

    Good Morning Pepper's,
    Well still in some pain but they told me that it would calm down after 24-48 hours after taking antibiotic. I will just keep eating mushy foods and hot water (yuck).

    Jacque we all have those days. You are doing great. It is so hard sometimes.

    Well going for a walk shortly, will check back later.
  • PlumCrazyGirl
    PlumCrazyGirl Posts: 1,463 Member
    Sindy - hang in there.... those meds will kick in.

    Jacque - I had a decent day yesterday. Today, the M&Ms w/a co-worker are being too much temptation for me. Once I came home from curves, I paid bills so no walk. Maybe tonight.
