Yaaay Christy! Don't ya love it?

Hey Everyone! Happy St. Patrick's Day! Just a quick check in here.... It's too early yet to think about my Thursday Triumphs. Hope everyone is having a great day. I'm off to the grocery store....last minute plans......for a corned beef brisket to go with my cabbage for tonites dinner. After chatting last nite with my son's…

Wow!!! You guys are just moving right along here. I was surprised to find 7 pages when I logged on this afternoon. I posted my Wednesday Weigh in earlier. But I do wanna say how excited I am about getting the new scale. I need that accountability. So much here to chat about......please forgive me in advance if I miss…

WEDNESDAY WEIGH IN: I usually do my weigh in on Monday. My theory is thatif I have to weigh on Monday, then I am less likely to go overboard on calories during the weekend. Makes sense to me. But I'm gonna do Wednesdays and see how it goes. I have to confess here.....I haven't had a scale now for a couple months. I have…

Wow....everyone has been really busy on here today. Last I looked in this morning, we were near the top of page 3. You'd never guess we were only 20 of us. Amazing! So I just finished catching up on your posts.....looks like we have a great group here.let me first say that I rather like our member list in alphabetical…

Malias....I think I'm in the same boat with you. I live with chronic back pain from scoliosis. I take pain meds, but it only takes the edge off the pain. So the pain makes me not want to exercise.....walking usually hurts the hip. Not exercising (and eating unhealthy foods) has piled on the weight.....and the added weight…

. Good job Katzpaws! I'm not that ambitious......I'm still in bed & online.....having my coffee& half watchin my dog & cat romp all over the bed. (They are both under 1yr old.) But I AM getting everyone onto my friends list . Gotta get up soon and do some running around today. Have a good one!

Good morning group! I've been awake and busy online here since 6a.m. ........busy trying to get everyone in our group added to my friends list. I'm a bit slow here since I am typing this from my cell phone....with two thumbs. I've just about got everone added. I'm pretty excited about our new smaller group. With about…

So I think we've got a good start going here. I rather like the idea of a daily topic......maybe withe one day as an "anything goes" topic. You know, a day to chat about anything ya want. And if my opinion or vote counts....I think MONDAY should be our weigh in day. I think that keeps me more accountable and on track…

I'm in it for the long haul! About 200lbs to lose here. Thanks for doing this Linda. Gotta go plug in before my battery dies. Will chat more later. Cassie

If I'm not mistaken......I think I've seen a. 12 volt crock pot that plugs into a cigarette lighter in the truck. Saw it at a Truck Stop ...most likely a Flying J truck stop. You don't say where your husband dives....this place I saw the crock pot was in Calif. But I think Flying J is nationwide. They usually have all kind…

Cresent rolls of any kind are usually loaded with lots of fat. My money is on the Reduced Fat Bisquick! Use Fat Free milk to mix with it. ;-)

Great advice from DocRunner! Follow through on it......then find a new doctor. It's just plain rude ignorance for a "professional" to treat you that way. B-)

Have you tried the low sodium bacon? I don't care for the turkey stuff. And I have issues with sodium as well. So IF I absolutely have to have some bacon.....which my husband loves & cooks often....then I'd rather have the real stuff. I just most often stay away from anything salty.....not that I don't like those foods,…

If you're inclined to liking the sweet stuff on your sweet potatoe or yam.....try marshmellow cream.....just don't go overboard.

As much as I don't like to admit it......my age number says senior......but my brain says otherwise....LOL.

Ditto what everyone else has said here!!! You're guy sounds real insecure. You won't have any problem finding a new guy. Get a backbone, dump this guy!

Such an inspiration! Congrat on 25 years clean & sober! You rockin' it!

I had no idea you were that tall. I'm 5'9" myself. I think you should do what you feel. I don't want to be bone thin either. I personally am aiming for a goal of around 160 to 170. See how you feel the close you get to your goal.....which is sooo close. I vote for curves! Curves at 5'10" = statuesque. You go girl! You're…

Really good post, Neurotic.......I read everyone else's posts to your and they all sound great. Especially adding different things to your salads. Salad doesn't always have to be lettuce. It can be any number of veggies and or other stuff.....nuts, fruits, beans, eggs. beets.....the list is endless. Antother…

Great post and all soooo true. Thanks for putting it out there....:glasses:

Try TUPPERWARE for the microwave......a baggie will melt if cooked too long...:-)

Hey this would be great for a camping trip too. I'm gonna try this. Thanks!

Have you tried HealthyGirl.com? She's got a good website......has low cal, low fat alternative recipes for all kinds of dishes. Check it out. I'm just not sure there's a healthy substitute for PadThai noodles. I love 'em too........too much.

TUESDAY TEMPTATIONS. My husband bought a bag of Fritos before we got on the road one day.....and I LOVE Fritos. I was soooo tempted!!! BUT, I told him that I had issues with him opening that bag of Fritos and that I 'm working real hard with this. Then I told him IF he opens that bag that he needs to keep it way over to…

Now a 3lb loss AND desert..... now that's the way (weigh) to go Stephanie. Great job!

I'm here ditching another whole person too....You go girl. This is such a kewl place.....it has made me want to be accountable and wanting to come back every day. You can do this......WE can do this together. One of my favorite sayings is "just keep putting one foot in front of the other". Kepp coming back, we"ll get there.
