Good morning all. Love reading your news and the pictures are lovely. I wish I could travel--always wanted to go to Scotland. I will attempt a picture of rock we made. Take care and be a bit wicked if needed.

Checking in, I don't even know what the goals were. I obviously need to get Tuesdays in better plan mode. Was late to most everything, did not get gasoline, did not get my missing pills, did not get crabby child's lessons done, had late lunch/dinner--lupper. Scraped the plate and emptied the salsa. Might have located the…

Ms. Dorrie I am sorry to read your news. I know many of us will be thinking of you and sending our good hopes your way. Allie I sort of mistrust lawyers and court stuff. Be careful and stand strong. Carol in GA A birthday! I would use a dancing emoji but forgot how to make it. Dogs went out, e-mail read, laundry in dryer.…

cschmitz TAKE DOG FOR WALK. I am pea green with envy about the balloons and about the buffet, too! I mostly did my today's goals. Stayed in calorie goals but son did take about 1/3 of my dinner. Going to drink some sugar-free flavored water to be sure I had enough to drink. Swam/played in pool for 30+ minutes. Son helped…

TODAY -- Monday 8/14/17 Keep to calorie guidelines. Fix a schedule for the Y to exercise now that son does school. GO TO Y. Cancel son's martial arts contract. Check finances online to cover next month. Clean one room plus fold laundry and clear dishwasher and swiffer bathroom. Order new cord for treadmill. Charge phone.…

Oh my goodness Michelle in NC now I see your concern. I am sure you will get through it all but I have no experience with showers other than as an attendee. Hmm, perhaps that tells you something about me! My mother-in-law lives in California--I met her twice and the second time apparently only because her children…

Checking in-looks like you have been having good adventures and laughter. Lanette-I absolutely agree with you about my washing machine. Leaks, shows errors, and can not get the mildew off the rubber gasket. Going to buy the cheapest one that does only ordinary stuff next. I am over front-loaders. Rye it was such a luxury…

Welcome. Look through the discussions and find yourself a gang. And away the weight will go...

You look young. I am not young. For me, it has been a lifetime of always being big and not fitting into clothes and the treatment the fat girl gets. It does not get better--always dieting or seeking some answer and always gaining even when I lost regaining and more. So, from my perspective, avoid the diabetes, cholesterol…
-
Welcome! Sounds like you are already doing well. Best wishes to you.

Wow, some of you are battling all the way. I put dog pills in Velveeta cheese cubes when necessary but hot dogs should work, too. I have never ridden a bike-when I was young my Dad said bike or pony and I went pony. Take care out there.

Hey BEX-I know what you mean about friends. I know some great people but they are out somewhere and I feel I impose on them. I know some pattern companies have the sort of items you want in the hat/scarf/glove section but not exactly what you described. And not sure you have those companies we use. I have a baby quilt to…

Welcome. I will look Kent up on the computer. I used to be from Kentucky! Now I live about an hour from the Atlantic Ocean in Virginia, USA. Best wishes.

Afternoon! We are all fine here. I have no goals today other than don't eat too much. Went out for lunch and had salad--apparently it had that preservative on it and now I am going to bed to wait it out! No big deal just a bit aggravating. Sun is shining and I guess the rain has passed but it is so wet outside I just can…

Felicia I did not spin today. I crept by the room and hoped no one saw me. I did Pro-Fit (8:30 class) and then had a set-up appointment with the Exercise Machine/Strength people. When I got done, the little child who helped me was very happy. The computer said I had burned 200 calories. Maybe. My boyo is 8 and today is his…

Sorry to hear you are feeling down on this. I have those times as well. But, like JJS said above, we had some reason for wanting to do this and we have already gotten knee-deep in it. Could you just keep on trying and not weigh nor measure for a week? Sometimes this takes a few--you know, plateaus and junk. Drink some good…

No news here. Haven't gone over on calories yet, did exercise. Got kid to camp. Slept until about 3 then more until 6 am this morning so I am not as tired today. Maybe tomorrow for floor cleaning, iris planting, and who knows what else. Thinking an early night again. Okay--Friday, I will-- stay within calorie allotment, go…

Hello, hello. I went to a spinning class (bike cycling) today--I may never go back. And I suspect I was mostly the youngest one there. I am getting no housework done when I exercise due to extreme laziness after. I have eaten a lot but seem to be holding the line and not creeping up on weight so...I need to be better on…
-
Today, I stayed in the calorie allotment and I exercised. Then ... well, nothing. Thursday, I want to sleep thru the night until 5 am. Take kid to camp on time and exercise at Y. Stay in the calorie allotment. Vacuum floor. Plant irises. I think he wants to quit martial arts-maybe I will let him. I am low on water…

Hope your Wednesdays were good. The boy, who has been going to a fire and life safety camp, feels sure the house is on fire and he woke me up from a nap to tell me so. Time to take the dogs out and then I am going back to bed!
-
Good morning Rebecca. What's new with you? Remember to drink lots of water.
-
Still smoke and fires -- sorry that the air is not better yet. It rained here. Forum in your pocket-such a great good thought. Everywhere we go there are kids on electronics and people sitting staring at their phones. I would too but I can never find my phone. I am thinking fondly of the days when the phone was on the wall…
-
Good early morning! I did do my list yesterday! Okay, maybe I did not get laundry folded and put away but it is washed and dried... And as it started to rain, I ran the mower over the grass by the street that the riding mower won't get. And I got weed eater fixed even though I had to chase men through Home Depot. Ha, I am…

Hello...I am good at whining and complaining. Been here for 16 days but have needed to lose weight since I was 8 and I am way past that 7+ times. To my great 'would be dancing in the church aisle if I wasn't lazy' delight, I have lost some weight already. Yes, I know 'water' weight but still the scale is just down a bit so…

Tere Happy yesterday birthday! Thanks for the prayer and I will be thinking of you here. I have never heard of nor seen a poteroo(?) but will have my boy help me look it up online. Educational moment! I can jump on the scale and see it is lower than when I started so I actually feel sort of woo-hoo about that. (I can not…

Thanks to those of you who 'spoke' my name. BEX What no drive-thrus? I am a bit surprised. Do you have the Boots Alliance stores there? I think that the UK name of us. Joan Oh, yes. One day a guy behind the car I was helping did get out and yell and curse at the person. I am not young but in reality I am not a slow cashier…
-
Yes, BEX I work in a pharmacy and drive-thru just keeps me from getting anything done on the list they put on wall. Of course, until I worked in a pharmacy, I knew nothing about it all. This I will say, A. if you have never been to the pharmacy, then don't come to the drive-thru and hand me all your cards when there are 2…

Leonora--what a priceless story about Ghandi. Ladies-I had pumpkin waffles for 'brunch' and they were not worth the calories! And it has taken me until past 11 am to have it. Got to rush off to work today. Been having a down time since yesterday's mail arrived. It is always something just when I think I have it under…

Another day has wafted away. I did what was needed and wanted except forgot to go to bank for babysitter cash. I think I can go to Wal-Mart early tomorrow and get cash back. I need gas and I get it there. Sunday's thoughts-- 1. Stay within the calorie allottment. A ham omelet for breakfast, meatloaf for lunch, tv dinner…
