Hey friends....Las Vegas here we come!! Still checking on flights. Allegiant arrives late, 8pm (I have to drive 2+ hrs to this airport), or 10:10pm (from a diff airport, 1 1/2 hrs away). Right now price is about $400. If I go major airlines...probably a lot more, but better times. Also, just in a few days the hotel pricing…

happy Sunday ladies! slacking big time here....not logging food, not doing any exercise and not getting enough water. yesterday was not feeling well at all. I still think I am adjusting to 300mg of Bupropion all at once, or these are the side affects I must now live with. Had a kinda bad headache off and on all…

I was taking Bupropion 150 mg once a day ( am ), for at least 3 years for major depression. The end of Jan I had a visit with my Dr and we discussed some other things that I was having issues with...possible OCD / ADD. anyway, she told me to double the dose, all at once. So, I did. came home and did a lot of research and…

up 193.6 it is what it is. have a lot of things I need to improve on and CHANGE. have a good weekend friends. sounds like the east folks had a nice day...it was here yesterday....60*. just a little fling of spring. here's to improvements and a better weigh in next week.

So good to see you back Erica!! we've missed you ~~ A LOT! dh cooked northern pike ( from his Canadian fishing adventures!! ) after all these years, he has finally learned how to cut the Y bones out. sure makes eating fish more enjoyable when there aren't any bones to worry about! ds helped me with my hair tonite....bless…

mornin' to ya ladies :flowerforyou: yesterday wasn't much better in the food dept. I usually have out-of-control issues prior to TOM...not this time... double whammy. ds court hearing was CN for Fri, now they assigned him an attorney and some date in March??? still don't know what is goin on with all of this....can't seem…

2 hr fog delay....dog sitting in a bit ....will check back later. confession ~ Barb, I didn't take my advice either yesterday. wasn't a "better" day at all. after my Dr appt yesterday I pulled into a truck stop, no I didn't need gas..... and left with mozzarella sticks, tenderloin, 2 Laffy Taffy's, rice krispy treat (…

I think it's different for all of us. I tend to gain water weight the week prior, then lose it the week of. I noticed the pattern after really watching my diet,(for many, many months) eating similar foods, keeping sodium low and exercise consistent. I don't let it bother me anymore.

I changed the chart a little again. the last column has total lost for 2011. I don't have a 12/31/10 wt for Barb, so used 171.1 from 1/7/11. Cindy and Vita's are from last posted wt. If you want me to change anything, let me know!

well I did ok for the most part 2/14....logged food, had a nice salad for supper, under cals, and that is with only 1 piece of candy for the day...a mini Laffy Taffy from a bus kid. but........ just before bedtime, I was so hungry, wanting sugar, salt, crunchy, smooth...anything.... so I had me some Hershey's candy that…

feel like I'm not getting much done today...long phone calls from my mom and best friend. put a call into my cardiologist about something that has been going on for almost a couple months now. feels like my heart is beating an extra beat, or palpitations? has happened over the years, maybe once a month, just once, but now…

it's ok Barb...were all having ups and downs lately...keep at it, it will head down soon! hope your work event goes well. I had another bad nite getting sleep, ended up in spare bedroom ( oldest son's whose @ college ). I am so ready for a good nites rest. long day @ final wrestling trip. Dh had the entire weekend off.…

around $400/month for dh, 18yr ds,( who do not eat very healthy ) myself, and 2 puggers. we don't buy much beef (in-laws farm), but do pork @ Fareway, and chicken at Aldi's or Walmart. Sometimes I shop at Sam's (buy nuts in bulk :bigsmile: ) and Hy-Vee. If I watch the weekly ads, I can save pretty well. just bought a lot…

tired Kelly here...dh was up at least twice, then slept bad the rest of the nite. ok, so in a period of about 2-3 minutes, my dh stopped breathing 7-8 times...he would go as long as 13-14 secs before gasping...and each time it was like he almost woke up?? this has to be affecting him!!:noway: had blood drawn, took son to…

was hoping to get to bed at a decent time tonite...errands tomorrow, son to college, blood work, groceries.. busy! a little short on water today, no activity, but ok on food. I will be flying Allegiant to LV...it's over $100 cheaper than commercial airlines. But flights leave on Fri only, return Mon...is it gonna work for…

I saw this on the news as well. they said 1-2 or was it 3-4 a week might be ok? I used to drink a lot of diet soda, then stopped completely, now if I have any, it is *real*...but only maybe once a month at the most.

grilled chicken breasts alone or sliced and put with anything....stir fry with fresh veggies, on top of my salad, on sandwhich thins, with salsa and/or tomatoes on whole wheat noodles, homemade/baked chicken nuggets, added to chili, used in wraps... yummo, love chicky!

Jacque...sorry to hear about all that is happening to you. getting older sure suks. I am still so mad at myself for injuring my shoulder. If I had done what I always did, I would not be in this position. But, for both of us, well, all of us, better days are ahead. I have done research on MBS in the past....and have…

hey everyone. well, feeling pretty good right now. have not taken my meds yet, so think yesterday's wooziness was from my new dose of Bupropion. not sure how long it will take to get used to this new level. will be 2 weeks tomorrow. what seems to be most noticeable, is the jitters I feel in my upper body, head. I see Dr…

TGIF ladies! I am having a pretty good day considering I gained. 191.8, up 2. Only 2 days within calories and exercise. I was feeling the cookie urge...we didn't buy GS cookies this year...so I feel left out. Thanks Barb! so, I had 3 choc/chip cookies before bed last nite. Now, I rarely eat after 7pm, and if I have a snack…
