Wow! Stacey, I see the weight ticker moving! Great job!!! I weighed in this morning at 157.6. That's 0.2 lb more than last week, but since I gained a pound for a bit while rehydrating myself, I'm really happy with it. Although, TOM is coming up in a week, so I need to keep myself moving and keep drinking! :drinker: I'm…

Trish, all I can say is WOW!!!! You are truly an inspiration!!!! Val - We do taco salads for dinner a lot. Yum!! It's something all of us enjoy. The kids are just now starting to enjoy mild salsa, so we are starting to be able to add some sort of "vegetable" to theirs. They do pretty well on a lot of veggies, but tomatoes…

Good afternoon! Niki - Welcome! Trish - I'm glad Grace is doing better! Stacey - Enjoy the recital! I know you'll enjoy it! I can understand the difficulties of the "single mom" when Tony works the Renaissance Festival in the fall. It's not easy. He's not gone during that time overnight, but he works 7 days a week (M-F at…

Got my 1.5 mile walk yesterday in the park on a walking trail with major hills! Drank 8 cups of water! Made my goals! bigsmile As of Saturday morning, I gained about a pound since Tuesday. I'm thinking I may have lost water weight in the last couple of weeks, since I tend to dehydrate easily and I've increased my water…

Good morning everyone! I made my goals yesterday! I got 8 cups of water in, and I walked 1.5 miles. It was such a beautiful and warm day that we took the kids to one of the parks near us. Tony watched the kids on the playground while I walked the paved walking path. Whew!! That was a workout!! Major hills!! Trish, you are…

Valmabel - MMMM . . . leftover lasagna! Sounds yummy! I love lasagna! That was a great idea to take something over to stop going out or ordering pizza. I don't think I would have been that good. Stacey - Don't worry about the whining. I didn't take it as whining. Sometimes it takes a bit for us to re-focus. I know it did…

I like either name. I think I like Shamrock Shaking Sixers better, but I like them both. I've been doing better with my exercise and water. I even surpassed my goals yesterday. My goals yesterday were to walk to pick up the kids from school (1.6 miles round-trip yesterday since we had to walk back into the school for a…

Trish - WTG on the weight loss!!! :flowerforyou: :bigsmile: We're eating a late breakfast, more like brunch, and then I'm going to get my shower and go out for a walk by myself. :happy: My water goal is 7 cups today. And, yes, it's a weekend, and I'm here posting! :bigsmile: I really need to keep posting on weekends. I…

Stacey - Family Fun Night sounds fun!! We do those some nights too. We should do them more often. We usually just do board games or card games and pop popcorn with the hot air popper. I was lucky enough to get the old 80's hot air popper that my parents used when I was little. It makes popping popcorn with my kids even…

Kim - Whoo hoo!!!! That is wonderful!! I can't wait until I have that feeling too. Well, I walked to pick up the kids from school today. It is a beautiful day! I was so happy when we got to where I usually park the truck when I drive to the walkers area, and Samantha said in a very happy voice, "Yay! You're making us walk…

Good morning! I made my little goals yesterday! My eating wasn't great yesterday, but it wasn't too bad either. For the next week or so I'm going to concentrate on increasing my water intake and my exercise level instead of food. I'm not going to allow myself to eat just anything, but I'm not going to worry about my…

Dolphin - I'm glad there's no major damage to your house. :smile: Nicole - You sound like you're where I was last week. I hope you feel better soon! If you feel like sleeping, then sleep. :flowerforyou: Trish - I'm glad Grace isn't badly sick. It is so hard on us mommies when our kids are sick. :flowerforyou: Stacey - I…

Good morning! I measured myself this morning just like I did at the beginning of Jan. & Feb. My measurements were the same both of those days, but today, my waist was the same, but I've lost half an inch in my hips! It's not much, but it's in the right direction! I was sure I had lost a little in my waist because my pants…

Cathy, Lauryn - Thanks for asking about my church/computer work! I am so excited because I got caught up on the majorly important piece (info on giving from 2009 for people's taxes). I still have several things that I need to re-create, but I can do those as I get a little extra time here and there.

Hmm . . . what would I tell my 10 year younger self? I think I would tell me to watch my spending now, try to live off of just Tony's salary and put my paycheck in savings. That would have made things so much easier when the tech industry bottomed out with all the paper techs and good IT people were being laid off a few…

Hello ladies! I've missed you all! Samantha's birthday went well. 19 children in the house. :noway: I was lucky that one of her friend's mom used to be a 2nd & 3rd grade teacher. She just naturally took over with the kids. :bigsmile: She was afraid she'd stepped on some toes, but I was grateful!! I owe her big time! Tony's…

Thanks Hopey! I hadn't thought of a star-shaped cake. And that's a cake pan I could use for other things. I wouldn't be surprised if my son wanted a space themed birthday party sometime. He is really into astronomy. Now to ask dh to go to Wal-mart for me...

I have a question that is completely non weight loss related. Does anyone have any ideas on how to easily decorate a High School Musical cake? I can bake with the best of them! But my decorating leaves a lot to be desired. I'm trying to save money by doing the cake myself. I did it for my son's birthday in September, but…

Good morning! Stacey - Good for you standing up for your daughter at school! Your idea sounds like a good one. I hope everything works out for your daughter! :flowerforyou: Nicole - Good luck at the dentist! Kim - Happy Anniversary!! Melissa - Good job on dinner! I would have had a hard time stopping at 2 enchiladas too!…

Kristin, I remember taking 2 pills, but I can't remember if that was 1 in the am & 1 in the pm or if that was 2 each time. My daughter is turning 6 a week from today, so my memory is a little fuzzy on the details. I do remember that at the time I was taking them with my son, I couldn't swallow pills, so I was given the…

Nicole, congratulations on the trip to Jamaica!! :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

Good morning! Welcome Dolphin! :flowerforyou: I had a pretty busy Sunday & Monday. Church was actually canceled on Sunday due to the weather, but we were able to make it out early afternoon to some friends house for a luncheon/party for choir members & their families and new members. They already had all the food, so they…
