I admire you for *everything* you have done to tackle this paint job. you are going about it, getting all the details, in right direction. once you get over this hurdle....you will have much to celebrate. your room is going to be beautiful and you, YOU, are going to be just fine. I…

went to the Walker Pickle Day's parade last nite then had supper at my folks. my brother and his family were there as were all of us. makes me, as well as my parents, feel good when our 19 & 21 yr old boys show up. am sure they would like to be elsewhere with friends, but they do make an effort. saw some amazing fireworks.…

Angie...a loss is a loss. as much exercise as you are doing, I am sure you are losing inches and toning your body. that alone will make you look thinner and help you feel better physically and emotionally. remember, this isn't a race, it's a journey. sometimes changing one thing at a time is better than a whole bunch of…

This is one example... the Harris-Benedict Formula for Basal Metabolic Rate For women: BMR = 655 + 9.56(weight in lbs) + 1.85(height in inches) - 4.68(age in yrs) so for me it would look like this..... 655 + (9.56 x 182.2lbs) + (1.85 x 64 inches) - (4.68 x 45 yrs) 655 + 1741.832 + 118.4 - 210.6 = 2304.632 so, about 2,304…

so I am guilty of weighing almost every day..and not sure what to think now. last Sat I was 187.2, Sun 186.2, Mon 185, Tues 183.2, Wed 182.4, yesterday 182 and today 182.2. that's 5 lbs. I did not expect this. now I know it is common for me to lose up to 10lbs (always water) in a week, and that is when I am trying really…

hi friends....another day loafin' here... rec'd a wedding invite to a h.s classmates dd wedding. this classmate is a distant friend, and unsure why my family was invited. she has lived in MO all her life, has 4 dd, 2 of which are the same age as Ty n Tan, and it is the 19 yr old that is getting married. I have never met…

happy hump day. watched 2 movies..Few Good Men & Angel Eyes. I feel so lazy. as I walked in my yard yesterday, I noticed my largest flower bed is full of weeds again. it took about 6 or so hours to clean up last time, and that was when I was feeling good. with the recent rains, they would pull pretty easy....but this is…

evenin... almost 12 water's today. food was similar to yesterday, including the bbq chips and oatmeal-raisin cookies. didn't have a salad for supper but had some fresh sweet corn, baked potato and grilled steak. starting to crave my black beans, lentils....soups and wraps. almost felt like a nap today, but it didn't…

didn't make the trip to get groceries. was getting ready and when I was brushing my teeth, I felt a little dizzy. decided I can't do this. so, I called Scott at work and asked if he and Tanner could stop after work... I emailed him the list and he picked up everything I had down and nothing more! for sure we could save if…

I just had a hysterectomy last Tues. always had a period as regular as can be. but, I had some that were late, like a week. it always was from stressful times. just thought I'd share.

barb..I am proud of YOU!! it would be tough for me to lay the law down on roomie too. I would get all blotchy in the face/neck, have to try and "talk" while hoping voice not to tremble, gasp and avoid raising my voice. very tough. girl, you did your challenge right there! kudos! hope she makes some positive changes and it…

proud of you...that takes great strength!

lots of funky things happenin' on MFP today, for me anyway. won't add my "comments", when I go to the message boards I get kicked off, I even went to my own Food tab and it told me it was private and I needed a password? :huh: Do you ladies want to set your own 'personal' goals and challenges or do a team challenge? I…

feeling a little better... dh says I have more color in my face today. did a little laundry, some dishes and made brunch. it's 1:30 and I think I'm done for the day. was looking ahead to my August calendar and on the 3rd I am to see my cardiologist for yearly checkup. need to find out if a treadmill test is planned, cuz…

hi everyone...Scott and Tanner are working today and Tyler arrived home last nite...didn't get to visit with him as I was already in bed. It stormed all nite, but we really needed the rain. lost power for 2 hrs this am. took a shower and blow dried my hair. now I'm very dizzy. waiting for the 'regularity' to return. trying…

mornin'...not feeling too well today. thought my upset tummy was from hunger...so I ate a banana and some toast. nope, been dizzy and lightheaded since I been up. forgot to weigh in so will do that tomorrow. and I hate the smell of anesthesia leaving the body....whether it's my breath, urine, gas. so gross it's nauseating.…

hey folks....just had me some goulash, eh, ok. for some reason I feel like I have a ton of cravings. laffy taffy banana, chocolate, and ice cream. sounds like a sugar fix. had 2 'mom' visits today. pretty tired now. pain isn't all that bad. took a Tramadol at bedtime and 2 Ibuprophen twice today. would rather stay away…

got home today around 4:15. surgery went well, really not too painful. however, since I don't tolerate a basic Lortab, they had me on a Morphine pump:noway: I was still groggy after waking and did not know this is what was hooked up to me. I must have squeezed it 3-4 times. I was so dizzy and nauseated. blech. they finally…

Barb ~ :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: :flowerforyou: I wish I was there to give you a hug! you're in my thoughts....praying for peace and strength. love YOU!! leaving in about 2 hrs, and surgery at 2pm. will be over nite and hope to be out before 24 hrs. love you all team...take care :heart:

HI everyone....Dr's appt today with my PA. 6 mo check on my Bupropion. this is the one she had me try to double and I had very bad side affects. will be doing some last minutes chores in the house. weather has been oppressive the last couple of days. temps in the 90's and humidity and dew points high. heat index 110-1115*.…

some where!! made stir fry for supper last nite which everyone enjoys, but takes a lot of time and cleanup. dh contacted cable company and I guess they are to be here today to move our satellite...for free. we shall see. freaked out yesterday when on a trip to the basement I noticed smoke rolling . didn't smell like 'fire…

hey Barb...thanks for taking the time to set up the survey and tally the results, much appreciated!! So I'm good with DC and early summer. Guess we need to settle on a definite date and go from there...length and itinerary. YAY! I'm excited to be planning another meetup with everyone! went to bed too early last nite, been…

afternoon team...went and got a haircut today. for some reason that always puts me in a better mood. I had her take off a lot more in the back, but the style is still the same. will need to do a home-high lite soon. got some groceries too.
