Hi everyone. I am finally starting to feel like myself again versus the vacation person who dsoesnt know how to frown or slow down :tongue: Not that I frown a lot but i didnt want to be a downer or worry my grandma so it was all happy and smiley faces for 10 days. I have just finally finished reading the posts I missed. I…

Hi everyone. Just wanted to post real quick and say I hope everyone was well while I was gone. I went and visited family in Illinois and though I had downloaded the app for my phone there was no kind of signal where she lives. We had a wonderful time and got home last night around eight in the evening. I weighed myself…

Hi everyone. I knew I posted to soon about avoiding the "bad" foods with my husband home. I was doing just great and then while i was in the abck of the house my husband decides to be nice and calls our daughter and tell her to bring home taco bell so I wouldnt have to cook. Now I know that doesnt mean I had to eat…

Hello and happy Saturday to everyone. I hope you are all having a good weekend. Hello to the newbies I saw posting this is a great group of people to talk to. Robin I loved your poem that was to funny. At least you arent letting your recovery get your sense of humour down.:wink: My success for this week has been staying in…

good morning everyone hope everyone is having a great friday. First off i want to say I am sorry for our friends who aren't feeling good. I hope all of you get feeling better real soon. I am looking forward to a nice quiet day at home. It tends to be a lot of go go go when my hubby is home. He is one of those lucky…

I am sorry to hear about everyone not feeling well or with sick relatives. I hope everyone gets better soon. My username is from my husband having a contracting company called j&t constructin so all the email addresses became jtconst@...... and since I have no memory that became my username for almost everything:tongue: My…

good morning everyone. Hope you are all enjoying your hump day. I had a great day yesterday. My husband and I went and picked up our new car. it is a 2013 chevy malibu. This is our very first brand new car in the twenty years we have been married so we are pretty stoked. We dont have a whole lot planned today. Hubby is…

Good morning all. Sorry I have been MIA the last couple of days. Couldn't beleive it I had three pages to read this morning when I got on. My weekend was very long and hectic and the eating choices were less then stellar and then on monday I woke up very sick to my tummy. Thankfully I still had a one pound loss for the…

Hi all hope everyone is having a great weekend. I tis great to hear that you are home and doing well Robin. I am sure the flies time is limited :smile: I am kinda in a lull today. Not feeling bad or anything just impatient waiting for my husband to get home. He flew from Alaska to colorado last night and today. He is…

Good morning everyone. Congrats on the successful rollover. I would have offered to help but have no ides how to do it :ohwell: My computer skills are being stretched right now that I learned this laast month how to post on threads and the difference betwee them and forums, lol. I dont really have any stand out successes…

Hi everyone hope your days are going well. I saw some great exercising going on with alot of you so congrats on that. Exercise is still real hit and miss with me. I havent found anything I really enjoy at all and I know that is the key to sticking to it. Today has been really long and not great. I got pretty much no sleep…

Good morning all. First Hugs and support to Robin. I hope all goes well with the surgry today. I am doing pretty good. A little emotional today. Just went shopping to get everything my son is going to need for his apartment when he gets to college. Only 13 more days and my baby will be gone. Thank god my husband will be…

Good morning everyone. First I just wanted to say how sorry I am for Laurie right now with her kitty.:cry: It is so hard to lose our loved ones and the furry ones just as much as the human ones. I am sending you a cyber hug and hope you have lots of real hugs to lean on where you are at right now. I also want to wish Robin…

Good morning everyone. Hope you all had a great long weekend. Mine was pretty good. Welcome to our new people. I am sure you will love this thread. Tuesday goal: My goal is actually not weight related this week. My husband is supposed to be coming home from alaska this weekend so this week is all about getting the house…

Hi all I am off to a labor deal bbq at my parents. I made an awsome pasta salad with lots of veggies ravioli and the skinnytast cilantro tomatillo dressing which is amazing by the way. I think my best tool on my life change journey this time is the fact I finally learned how to cook. My weekend was pertty good once I got…

Good evening everyone. Just wanted to say welcome to our new people. You are going to love this group these people are awesome.:smile: I had a great day. My SIL and daughter and neice and I had a girls day. I got my hair colored for the first time in my almost forty years at a salon and it looks fantastic. Then we were…

Good morning everyone. Sorry I havent been around the last couple of days. I think I was having a pity party or something. Just no motivation to do anything and feeling like everyone was against me. Which is all ridiculous because I have a super loving nd supportive family, but whatever it was I seem to have shaken it off…

Hi everyone hope you are all having a good day. I have been running around every where with my sister in law getting ready for y brothers b-day. I just wanted to take a minute to let everone on here know they have been such an inspiration to me since I joined. Those who are struggling right now I know you can do it because…

Well it is wednesday and my wish for today is some motivation to do just about anything. I am happy I made myself do my workout today but am getting nothing else accomplished fast. I need to clean my house and still need to get the rest of yesterdays groceries put away. I always stock way up on everything but perishables…

my favorite is spinach bluberries bananna and pinapple. I have that one 3 or 4 days a week and then mix it up the other days. I buy fresh fruit once a month and then frezze it all. Using the frozen fruit makes it icey cold and gives it the smoothie consistency I love.

Hi all. I am moving real slow today. woke up with a headache and a sore throat. Of course I would catch a summer cold now. My husband called and he is going to be home in ten to fourteen days. I cant wait but it also means getting everything perfect before he comes home which is ridiculous since after 20 years he…

Just wanted to send out a quick ty to everyone for the congratulations and super support. You are all awesome.:happy:

Happy monday all. I am happy to say that all the unaccustomed ctivity not only didnt wear me out but resulted in a fantabulous 5 pound weight loss for the week Needless to say I am super happy about it. I have spent the morning researching exercises that people can do at home if they are very heaavy and not in real good…

I have a green smoothie everyday for breakfast. I just combine about a cup of water a couple big handfuls of spinach then frozen banannas. This is my base and then i keep a variety of frozen and fresh fruits on hand and just add whatever sounds good. It makes two 32 oz glasses full which I drink through the morning.

So I had a bit of an epiphany I thought I would share with all of you this morning. I started this lifestyle change about three weeks ago when I discovered green smoothies and after trying them decided I liked them and they would make a great breakfast. Well if I was going to do that I decided I might as well make some…

Hi everyone. It was great reading about everyones successes this week. I think the most successful thing I did was not blowing myself out of the water at the fair on friday. I just didnt order anything for myself. Everything I ate was something I was sharing with someone and that seemed to work pretty good for the most…

Hello folks and happy Friday. Just wanted to say congratulations to all the success stories on here. You are all awesome and an inspiration for everyone when the going gets rough. Conversely my sympathies to those that are struggling. I feel your pain but you are all super people and I know you can do this. So Friday…

Ok I made it before the day was over. It seems like I have been running all day. Nothing major just enough to keep me busy instead of lazy, lol. `I have been scanning the different forums especially the recipie one and was led to some great websites for recipies. My head is literally spinning. Cant make up my mind were to…
