    YEAH!!! Miss V....we have missed you terribly. I would love me some blackberry jam. How much?
    I am glad you are still around and doing so great. Eating some great foods and all the walking. Glad that your kids got off to school. I cant say watching other kids make me want more but if you do; then you are a better person than me. I love my children but there are few of others kids that I can tolerate. I could never be a daycare worker. :bigsmile:
    Let me tell you that I have a great recipe for zuccini...grilled if you havent tried it.
    Cut in lengthwise, scoop out the center making it into 2 boats. Brown some dround sausage (leave the grease or at least some of it) and add it to the zuccini, top with cheese, marinara sauce, sauteed mushrooms and anything else you like. (garlic salt) and wrap in heavy duty aluminum foil and grill for about 45 mins.
    ITS IS SO GOOD! adjust recipe to be more healthy. This is just the original I got.
    let me know what you think if you try it.
    I will message you my address and would love to get some of that jam. YUMMM!!! Thanks and Talk to you soon!

    :bigsmile: morning Kelly
    :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker:
    I think we should have a new thread ever 2 weeks or so, with the last post in the old thread in bold and telling everyone taht we moved threads (I forget sometimes:)
    I dont care when we weigh in, but mondays and fridays would rock.
    I would love to have a chart going through out so that we can al see the progress
    maybe a monthly photo to show progress ( Or no progress so that we can support those who fall behind :like ME:laugh: )
    challenges I think should be something WE stick to and do!
    forgot what else I was gonna say so I will write later;)

    hey miss V :bigsmile:

    re the chart...are you talking like the wt, %'s, info? i can do that for us, i think it is a good motivator tool, loss or not! i prefer Friday's, and it's ok w/me if ppl want to pick their own day, i will just update the info when i get it. photos are a good idea, and i think measurements are cool too. i think i will just go ahead and post a recruit thread and we will go from there...

    Hi. I am back. It took a little bit to find the new thread. I love the new name. I had a busy summer working out of town. Now I am back to being a stay at home mom. Glad to be back home and back into my normal routine. My dieting is put on hold for the next 8 months because I am pregnant. I still want to be part of the group if that is ok with everyone else. I am going to need support to eat healthy. I am very overweight and over 35 so I need to limit my weight gain during my pregnancy. It also is my first pregnancy so I am a little freaked. We didn't plan on it happening so fast. I went off the pill and 1 month later I am pregnant. I love the idea about the chart. I missed you guys.:flowerforyou:

    HI Angie, so good to hear from you and CONGRATS on the pregnancy! :flowerforyou: I think you will do fine and yes, eating healthy and staying active as long as you can will help with your weight gain. Wish you all the best! I started a new 'recruit' thread for the green team, but see so far there have only been lookers. Will post it again Monday, and hope for some joiners! We have missed everyone here, past and current, so we're happy you're back!

    Hi all,
    I am sorry for not being on, life justt got to hard. Gained all my weight back, started on a free for all eat fest. Had a wierd exprerence Saturday night and it scared me so I am starting over. I went to bed, been fighting a cold for a week now and as I was trying to go to sleep, I kept waking up as soon as I nod off, like i couldn't breath. I am sure it the cold along with stress, but it scared the hell out of me. I started praying and said God please help me sleep and I promise to really try harder. Well I finally fell asleep and lord and behold I heard a pounding on my door, its now 3:30 in the morning and at my door is the cop bringing my dd home from a party. thank God she was not in any real trouble, no drinking or anything but she had snuck out her bedroom window to go to this party and there was alot of older kids there. Anything could of happen,(agh). I then realize there is always gonna be stress, and I just got to deal. So we had a heart to heart talk after I got back from the gym (1st time in a month, I walked slowly for 2 miles but hey at least I moved. So in our heart to heart I was straight up with her and said that I put my life on hold for the last 17 years and I did it gladly because I love her sooo much but then i realize what kind of examples I was setting, so I told her now I got to focus on me and she needs to focus on her life and where is she going? So we decided that we need to get off our #$$ and make changes. So now i am starting really slow, I am not gonna worry about diet per say but focus on moving every day and try to make good food choices.
    :heart: SHGP standing strong
    :heart: listening more to dd
    :heart: myself
    :heart: breathing good today
    :heart: Monday (hahahaha)
    So I will try to get on more.

    Ok had a rough night last night. Did not get to exercise like I wanted, so will try today. For some reason I blew last night to H$%% and back. First made one of my son most fav meal and over ate. Then literally sat on my butt and did nothing but watch TV! OMG how I fallen, then had a snack that could of been a meal at 9pm. Accomplish nothing, no laundry, home work, or even clean the dishes after the snack. Its like I said I was gonna start slow and my mine said oh no u don't!!
    Well Today is going a little better so far, but promise my son dinner at Case Ole tonight so I gotta figure out how to do this without really blowing it
    :heart: SHGP
    :heart: Payday tomorrow

    Jacque, no apology needed dear. none of us is perfect. in one way or another all of us have slacked in some form. these are the lessens we can learn from. can you believe it is Sept and we are still here? even if i had lost my wt and gotten to goal, i dont think i could just up and leave you guys. you are my wt loss buds, whether i was venting some stress or just sharing non important info. this team has been thru it all and now stronger b/c of it. you matter and i really care about my Texan Pepper! :heart:
