Looks totally yummy. Definitley going to try.

So just had to share real quick: I just bought a beautiful new set of knifes and then started chunking root veggies for dinner and all I can say is knife 1 tammy 0. Dang thing slid right into my thumb but I still love them they are so pretty, lol.

Hello all, hope everyone is having a good day. I have had a fairly good morning. I had promised my dad I would make him some cookies so I was finally getting them made. I just about died when I input the recipie into the tracker and saw tje calories for one little cookie. They are 115 calories. Now admittedly they are…

Welcome to the new memebers. You are going to love this group. The people on here are super nice and supportive. So because I got such a late start to my day "noon" due to a migraine this morning I was way to far under my calorie goal so I decided I needed to get a little more in before I went to bed. I had some greek…

Hi everyone I am so happy to see all the victories that have been posted. My sympathies to the ones that are in pain. I have been dealing with chronic pain for a few years now but never been diagnosed as to the cause. Tests cost money and no insurance, so there it is. Now we have the insurance so maybe we will see though I…

Annie great job on the running I cant wait until I am able to pick up the pace a little. That said I did get my walk in tonite before dinner so I was happy about that. I havent been as faithful to the exercise as I need to be but I am going to try and do better this week. Good thing I walked before dinner because I was…

Happy Monday everyone. Congrtulations to all the victories I read and sympathy for everyone having a tough time right now. So today was WI and i gained one pound. I thought about being depresed for about a min and then remembered all the mickey D's on Saturday and was grateful it was only a pound, lol. I am a somewhat…

Happy Sunday everyone. I didnt make it on to post yesterday as nothing went quite as I had planned. I ended up making a flying two hour car trip for my husband who called from alaska and asked me to go pick something up for him and then when I got home the neighbors dog had decided to dig around in my front flowerbed so I…

Well I get a little headache and take a nap and miss a bunch of drama apparently:ohwell: Just want to say ty to Robin and Laura for messaging me. I am not computer savvy and moght not have ever found you all again :cry: I can already tell the difference this time from other times on the weight loss journey that the support…

Well good morning all. I love reading the posts in the morning. It helps set up my motivation for the whole day. You are all just super awesme people. I didnt get any exerceise done yesteray as my side was acting up but I have to go grocery shopping in a little while so that will be a couple of hours of walking. I am…

Good afternoon all. I fell so behind the day is half over and I am just getting on here. My son and I both had errands that needed to be done so the morning was spent doing that. I did discover a new grocery store today that carries much better produce then where I usually go so I spent to much money there but have some…

K so i just went out and took my walk and I now have another wed wish. I wish I could walk more then 10 min without my lower back turning into a giant knot. :ohwell:

Well made it to wednesday. I had some great news from my husband last night. After thousands and thousands in medical bills the last few years his compay is now going to start offering health insurance. He was filling out the paperwork last night. It is going to be such a nice change to not have to worry anymore if one of…

:explode: So I am having a horrible day. I am having that time of the month for the first time in three months and it scuks. I feel crappy and I am starving. So far I havent gone crazy but all I can think about is food. I have always had a "hungry day" this time of the month and would just graze through the whole day using…

Good morning everyone. I think my brain might be to tired to do much writing this morning. So for tuesday goals I am going to try harder to get in my exercise better. I only walked two times last week and would like to get up to five days a week since I can only walk such a short amount of time at once right now. Other…

Wow thats really awesome you should be so proud of yourself.

Just had to note real quick that after reccording everything I ate at the bbq I still came in a little under calories. I credit the great watermelon my sister bought. I was eating that like it was candy :happy:

Happy Monday everyone. It sounds like everyone had a fairly good weekend. I love getting on in the morning and reading all the posts while I have my morning smoothie. It helps to get me in just the right mindset to be more successful through my day. I had a fairly good weekend with food. I was a little under calories on…

Good morning everyone. It is so inspiring to read everyones posts every morning. I was arguing with myself about this overwhelming need for lots of salty fatty bacon with breakfast and then after reading this I went and made my green smoothie and I am not regretting the bacon at all. Well not to much, lol. I am going to a…

Good morning everyone. I hope you all had a nice night. Real quick to Monarchis I just wanted to extennd some sympathy and empathy. My oldest daughter cut me out of her life a year ago because I couldnt be the perfect leave it to beaver mom her boyfriends mom was. There were lots of issues but it didnt make it any less…

K so I am getting a late start today. Got a new comp tower lst night and since I repel technology we have been working out the kinks, lol. I love reading all the posts on here. Everyone has such a great attitude and I have actually thought to myself a couple times when I was about to be bad, would you want to have to tell…

So I was just looking through som of the various postings on the site and ran across this it was so fun I had to share: 1 pound = a Guinea Pig 1.5 pounds = a dozen Krispy Kreme glazed donuts 2 pounds = a rack of baby back ribs 3 pounds = an average human brain 4 pounds = an ostrich egg 5 pounds = a Chihuahua 6 pounds = a…

ice cream ice cream ice cream....all variaties and all flavors I have no self control if it is around so have to keep it out of the house

Good morning everyone. So lets see a truth for Thursday. I tend to make excuses alot to justify alot of negative behavior concerning food and exercise. Part of my journey is having to stop and question myself regularly to make sure I am actually doing the best I am capable of.

@AuntieVaVa: just wanted to touch base and let you know you aren't alone. I have over 200 lbs to lose. I gained over 100 pounds in the last couple years because of some out of control health things. I also just started walking yesterday and was determined to go for 15 min but by 10 the pain in my back had me walking like a…

Good morning everybody. I am off to a rocky start the alrm didnt go off this morning. I am babysitting for my brother for the next month. I was woke up by the dog barking as they came into the house. Woops. The day will get better just hate feeling like I am running behind. Lets see my wish for wednesday; that the house…

So started the dreaded exercising. I just took a 10 min walk with my dog. I just have to remember it is about what i can do, not my husband or kids. That is always my downfall, i feel if I cant do as much as them it isn't worth doing. I am my own worst enemy most of the times, lol.
