Hi ladies...sigh...:indifferent: My scales really hate me. They seem to want to win this battle of the bulge...but I refuse to let them. So, I come to you, my friends (Barbie..you're so right...a Life/Health Coach would not be helpful here...only earning her salary). :flowerforyou: I have been analyzing my weight loss (I…

Good Evening friends... This was a very lonnnnnnnnnnnng Monday for me from the moment the alarm went off. I rarely hit the snooze button, but today I slapped it 3 times and it just would not go away...:grumble: I think the active weekend caught up to me :ohwell: Bed is already sounding quite inviting. Tonight I had a…

Congratulations...you are an inspiration! Had a very fun evening at the Fundraiser. Did some dancing, food was pretty healthy, did imbibe in a couple of…

OOOOPS...this was supposed to say "gleaning inspiration FROM all of you wonderful ladies". Fingers & Brain were not in sync.

Good morning ladies...just could not sleep-in today...got up at 5:30...this is not acceptable on Saturday! However, I will use my time wisely gleaning inspiration for all of you wonderful ladies. Mimi...loved your story about walking your dog and grand-dog. Little dogs are so funny with their viciousness. Amanda...it is so…

Oh Barbie...this made me LOL!

Me too...keep the thread!

Hi all...this week has been insane, and I have missed all of your posts. Will catch up as soon as I can. I tackled Valentine Dinner (surf & turf cooked with love by hubby) with sensibility. Then last night a business dinner at Carrabas...passed up the bread & dipping oil, pasta and dessert...felt happy with my choices. The…

Hi Ladies... Nancy...I am feeling your pain...I was up 2 lbs from yesterday, and I was really good with my calories yesterday...Guess that's what I get for weighing every single day. Jeesh. I ended my day today 350 calories under my MFP calories of 1200 and got scolded by the "If you" mantra...But...I was right at my WW…

Hi ladies... This group is so inspiring....when I look at the weight loss tickers under everyone's name, it tells me "I CAN DO THIS"...it is feeling really good. Last night's early Valentine's Day dinner at the Italian place went well...I even lost .2 pounds from yesterday, so I was thrilled. Today I have been very…

Hi ladies...It's a beautiful, brisk, blustery day in SC...the kind of day that makes your cheeks sting. Went to the Humane Society with my sister-in-law this morning...found the CUTEST little spaniel/lab mix pup. I would so love to have her...but still haven't convinced hubby that it is time. I think Abby (our lab) was…

Good Evening friends... Genealace & Viv...I remember the days of snow and ice, and ice, and ice from my 25 years of living in upstate NY. I have to admit I don't miss it a bit. I do love the "snowstorms" we get in SC...they come, they shutdown the city for 24-48 hours, and it's gone. Just don't try to buy any bread or milk…

Yes, it is sweetened with Splenda...I enjoy one glass, then return to water ... To my fellow wine-sippers...remember statistically one glass of red-wine a day is good for your health. Does that mean we can pick our own glass...water tumbler, solo cup, etc:devil: Like Donna...I'm feeling very positive about my week. I've…

Have a happy, healthy hump-day! I think we need definitely need to start a no-weekday-wine pact. I'm the first to commit. I am much better than I was...one glass of red wine with dinner...but I don't really need that. Renny...I understand your feelings about your hubby's loving gesture...we've changed to Cranberry juice…

Hi ladies...well I was down 2.4 pounds for my first "official" Weiht Watchers weigh-in. The trouble is that I now seem to have 3 weigh-ins...My Shedding Pounds for Hounds weigh-in, my MFP weigh in and my WW Weigh-in. Guess I'll have to slide a couple around to get them all on the same day. I am considering my start date…

Good Evening ladies... I LOVE :love: LOVE :love: LOVE :love: the activity on this blog...so inspiring! I made it through Superbowl party...however, I somehow managed to get tackled by a cheese & cracker platter. Result...up 1.5 pounds today. Ugh. Onward ... and downward. Where was my "good choices" voice when I needed it?…

Happy Super Bowl Sunday friends! May the best team win and your SB Party challenges minimal....smart choices are the key. Go GIants! We head to a friends for dinner/party this afternoon. I was asked to bring dessert...so blackberry pie for the folks who want it, and I'm thinking a granola/ blackberry / yogurt parfait for…

Good Morning friends... Today I see two big benefits from my kidney/liver cleanse. The biggest thing is that I SLEPT ALL NIGHT WOOO HOOO. I did wake up a few times, but fell right back to sleep immediately...then on top of that I am down 3.8 pounds from when I started on Thursday. It wasn't nearly as bad as I expected, and…

Frogmama...I read that entire series as well. I learned about it from my friends 7th grade daughter who had it on their required summer reading list. I thought it was a great series, but was a bit puzzled that it was considered required for 7th graders. I guess it is just a sign of the changing times. @Laura...I'm with…

Wow...I missed one day, and need to stay home to catch up on posts (don't I wish:bigsmile: ). I woke up at 4:45 this morning, and rather than lay there being miserable cuz "I only had 45 minutes more to sleep and I can't"...I got up and walked for 20 minutes on the treadmill I pulled out and dusted off last weekend. Felt…

I was awake at 4:45 am this morning, so I decided to make the time worthwhile. I got up, and walked for 20 minutes on the treadmill this morning. I must say, at this point I feel really good...ask me tonight at 8:00 pm to see how I held up!?! Cleaning all the dust off that thing this weekend actually paid off! Have a…

Good Evening Ladies...well, my 2.6 pounds up yesterday was down 2.8 today...All I can think is that I did not drink my water yesterday...didn't flush anything out of my system I guess. Started weight watchers today...the program has changed so that whereas last year when I gave it a try my points were 29 / day...now they…

Good Evening Ladies...My Monday started out with a 2 lb GAIN from Saturday...what's the deal!?!? I actually was very good yesterday food-wise, but did realize late last night that I had dropped the ball on my water consumption. I was anxious to get to menopause and get rid of that "time of the month"...since I've been…
-
Good Evening ladies...Thanks for the warm welcome! I thought that weekends were for relaxation. I was able to rope my husband in to spring cleaning in January...doable when you live in SC. Yesterday & today we took down & washed curtains, wiped down walls, mopboards, cleaned windows, pulled out furniture that hasn't been…

Good Saturday afternoon ladies...is there room for one more in this group. It looks like my age group, and my kind of people...dog lovers / pet lovers! I am Mary-Ellen Gregory...they call me MEG. I joined this site on January 17th, and have lost 3.6 pounds since doing so. I love the accountability that it gives me. I…
