Hi Cindy, Thanks for making a board for Wisconsin.
Today's another hot humid day, Bleh. Im over the humidity.0 -
Redneck, where in Wisconsin did you live?0

Found it Cindy. Thanks!
Maybe we can get some new friends with some refreshing, new ideas to keep us on track!!0 -
Redneck, where in Wisconsin did you live?
I was born in Wisconsin Rapids. I still have family in Rapids, Rudolph, and Stevens Point. I'm usually up there to visit every summer and love it! It's always so beautiful when were up there!0 -
Hey Ladies! How goes it? I'm so loving this web site.
Have been sticking to plan wonderfully! Hopefully it will pay off in the long run.
It is super humid here again today. Tomorrow is suppose to be the worst of the week....ugh!!
Has anyone heard from Patty?? Maybe we can get her over here too!0 -
I almost melted away on the golf course today. It was very hot to do 18 holes. Too hot to even have a beer while I was out there. Just drank lots of water. Thank goodness there was a slight breeze at times.
Have not heard much from Patty. She gets too busy with all the grandkids in the summer. But I will shoot her an email. This site is much easier and quicker then SP. Good find Cindy!
Heading up to Cocktails for dinner tonight. Danielle is working and we are taking my mom and step dad there for his b-day. Not sure what I will eat. If the grill is on (sometimes they turn it off it is so hot out) I will do a grilled chicken sammy and side salad. If not, I am sure we will do pizza. But they are homemade and Danielle makes my side very healthy!0 -
Just got home from work.
Been craving Tuna Casserole and I found a couple on the WW site. As of right now, you can't search other peoples recipes on here. That is one downfall I've found but I read on their FB page that they are working on this.
Going to get it in the oven and then get in my Turbo Jam work out!
Question: Do you ladies want to keep going on this thread or start a new one every day?0 -
Hi ladies! I am also from Wisconsin and wanted to say hi!0

Hi Tezra........... Welcome!
Cindy I think we could most likely keep with this thread. If it starts to grow with people and get too big, then maybe we will need to start daily so there are not too many posts to sort through. right now should we try weekly??
How was the tuna casserole? were you nuts heating up your oven?0 -
Hi Tezra! Where in Wisconsin are you from?
Sounds good to me Becky! We'll stick with this thread! I'm so loving this site...... Glad your here with me!
The recipe I used, you can just heat it on the stove top. Used whole grain pasta and it turned out pretty good. The pasta is a little drier than your regular stuff. Didn't have any low fat mush. soup so it made the calories a little higher. But I only ate one serving and didn't go back for more!
Hope you have a good nite...speak at ya tomorrow!0 -
Redneck, Awesome! Im about an hour from Stevens Point area. Love Stevens point, we usually do a walk wisconsin walk every year in June there.
Terza, welcome!
Cindy, yum that sounds good. I found a some what healthy tater tot casserole that I like to make in the winter months...Yum.
Yesterday was a pretty decent day food wise, I was invited to eat dinner w/ some friends before volleyball last night and decided to stick with what I made for dinner.0 -
Fellow cheesehead here! I live in Superior. It's been so humid the last few days I can't even take the dog for a walk for fear of passing out!0
-
good morning everyone. Bring on the heat. LOL. Heck I would prefer this over winter, right?
Peek at scale this morning was really good. Think it was all the sweating I did on the course yesterday.
Jen WTG on making a good decision with your dinner last night.
Cindy I have never been one to like tuna. Think I ate it too much when the kids were little and we had to $$.
OH GREAT....... the news said more bad news for the housing market. Yesterday I actually started working on my resume'. I have not had to do one in over 20 years so this has been interesting. But if the housing does not pick up I need to make some major decisions.
Well everyone stay on trck today and drink plenty of water.0 -
Yikes! This is suppose to be the worst day of the summer. My DH works outside and I worry about him. The company he works for has been providing water and Gatorade for them.
Was pretty close OP yesterday...went over my calories by 20. Sure I can sweat that off just walking outside...ugh!
Becky...sorry to hear about the housing market. What kind of job do you think your looking for?
Jen...sure that wasn't easy to make that decision and not eat dinner out! Very proud of you!
BTW~ My WI's are on Tuesdays...trying so hard to keep off the scale!
Have a great day everyone...drink lots of water!0 -
Hey fellow Wisconsinites! Couldn't help but notice your thread, this site is great, you will really love it.0

I'm from SW Wisconsin. Grew up in Spring Green, now living just outside of Richland Center.
It is HOT, and this humidity is not a friend to my curly hair! Even my nice, cool basement has been stuffy this summer. Eek! I'm ready for fall, as short as it may be! I'm so over summer right now!
I really love this site and it has helped me tremendously. I still have issues with portion control and impulse control but it's getting better. I'm shooting for 30 minutes five days a week for exercise. I'm not a morning person but I've been getting up at 4:45 every day and getting it done. Everything seems to be going so slowly. That's what gets me down. I know in my head that 1 lb loss is great, but I'd really like to see 5 lbs!!
I'm not usually a big poster, but love reading all the tips, tricks and recipes that everyone posts. Hope to see you all around!
Take care!0 -
Had the bestest lunch today. Was looking on Subway website and I noticed the veggie delight sammy. Never had it so I gave it a whirl today. SO YUMMY!
6" honey oat, pepperjack, lettuce, banana peppers, cucumber, tomatoe, onion. Squirt of lite mayo and raspberry vingagrette (sp). Very filling!0 -

Cindy, I love veggie subs from Subway, but I've also really been liking the Ham 6inch. Yum. I do know that the sodium @ subway always makes my scale go up.0 -

Yeah, that is why I don't eat the ham or even eat there very often. Maybe once a month at the most.
How is your day going everyone?? Keeping OP? Getting in your water?0 -
My water intake is right on! Burned 700 calories at Body Combat. I'm WAY under my calorie intake for the day though, they added the additional 700 I burned to my day. Yikes, I was up over 2,000 for the day it said...0

Happy Evening everyone.
Went out and golfed 9 holes this afternoon at 2:30 with hubby before he had mens league. I must be getting use to this weather as I did not think it was too bad out there. When I got home and put on my workout clothes though...... i realized my bra was soaked through with sweat.
Tried a new DVD today that a friend let me borrow., It is 30 Day Shred with Jillian. THree levels so of course I started at level 1 and it kicked my butt.
Waiting for Dan to call me so we can eat supper. I made homemade chicken salad and fresh salsa for baked tostitoes. Yummy. I used a recipe for the chicken salad out of a BL book I have. It had a waldorf salad in there that is tastey so I just added chicken breast to it. Hope it is good.
Cindy yeah the market in our area is awful. I built one house this year. That is not enough to even pay the bills of the business. Not good. I am thinking PT for now. And I have to make a decision if I am going to hold on to the business and wait this out, or just close up shop. If I closed up shop I really would not even have to worry about working...... although at my age I would as I am bored and like my lifestyle. LOL. So I turned in resume's today for our library and also the school distirct. I heard the school district has had over 100 applications turned in. YIKES.
Well I best get a move on and start my sammy's. Dan should be calling any minute.0 -
Morning Ladies! We are under severe storm warnings right now. They are advising people to not even take showers or baths because of the lighting being so bad. Hmmmm wonder if that means I don't have to go to work?? LOL!
Speaking of work, we are going to be super busy today and it's Friday the 13th. Always brings out the "funny" people. Oh well it's a job and I'm very lucky to have it. Becky, good luck with your decision on the job market. They just had on the news that the interest rates are going to be dropping again...down to 4.5%, maybe that will help people want to build.
Had another awsome day with staying OP. It is really feeling good to be in the swing again!! So glad a lady on the WW boards recommened this site. Have to plan out my menu yet for today. Not sure if I'll get a work out in....have lots to do tonight for the party tomorrow. 25 years...who knew!?!!?
What's your plans for the weekend?0 -
Redneck, where in Wisconsin did you live?
I was born in Wisconsin Rapids. I still have family in Rapids, Rudolph, and Stevens Point. I'm usually up there to visit every summer and love it! It's always so beautiful when were up there!
Hey! I'm from Rapids too!! :bigsmile:0 -
And, without knowing it, I started a new page! :laugh:0

Is HaPPy DanCINg this morning. Scale is the lowest it has been all summer long. 159.4, YEAH. I would love to lose 1 pound a week for the next 4 weeks before we leave on vacation so that I am back to where I was at my lowest. I am hoping if I reach that it will make me want to be more careful of my eating then.
Cindy I heard that there are some severe storms up by you. They think it will fall apart before it hits us. We could use some rain though. Things on the surface are very dry from all of this heat.
Happy 25th Cindy!! Hope the party goes well.
Tonight is my 30th class reunion. First we are going out to eat with friends to a new Mexican place. It is so yummy and I can make my meal very heealthy which I love. Lots and lots of lettuce. Tomorrow we have to head down to one of Dan's supervisor's houses. He always has an appreciation picnic at his house for all of his sales guys. Which is so nice of him. That will be tougher. Last year there was nothing much there to eat that was healthy. Then Sunday, I know you guys will find it hard to believe, but we are heading to Whistlin Straits for the final round of the PGA Championship. Can't wait!! Always fun to get to watch the big golfers golf. Especially when they have flubbed shots. LOL.
Well I best get a move on. Have to get haircut today so I can look decent tonight. WIll be fun this year since I am almost 60 pounds thinner than I was 5 years ago!!! YEAH ME.0 -
Good Morning! TGIF
Becky, way to go on the removal, woohoo
Cindy, Happy 25th Wedding Anniversary, enjoy it my friend.
Weigh in this morning was good too, -1.6 woohoo It evens out my gain from last week. I have a plan in place & this site to keep me accountable for this weekend.
I plan on getting some excercise tomorrow @ the Gym for Body Combat, then home to dig the rest of the driveway out. fun.
Sunday, Im planning on getting another tattoo, I figured I'm coming up on 2 years smoke free I deserve it.0 -
Hello new peeps on here!
Congrats Jen and Becky on your removals!! Feels so so good!
Becky, your weekend sounds like a crazy busy one. Good luck with your food choices and don't beat yourself up if you slip a bit. You can get right back on track the next day.
Jen, your gonna be burning a lot of calories. Hope it isn't too hot outside for the drive way. 2 YEARS!! That is so awsome! I'm suppose to be going next Saturday for my first tat. Going to be getting one on the top of my foot if all goes as planned.
Off to work. I'll be checking back in later.0
