Hey Kid's! Well I think I'm on the mend now. Lost 3 pounds with that stomach bug. Hopefully it won't come back tomorrow. LOL. Techie- Good luck with the juicing. I tried some recently only tasted a lot of celery in that one. Though I steer clear from cauliflower do to the fact broccoli gives me severe heartburn. Sad I used…

Hey Kid's! Josie seems a little better today though now I feel rough. Up and down the stairs last night. Don't feel much like eating today. I had to adjust the font size since my eyes aren't working right. Just thought I'd try checking in. Spent yesterday making play food for Josie while she napped. Turned out pretty cute…

Morning Kid's! Been busy trying to get house decorated, buying presents with a 3 yr. old in tow, and making a few gifts. On top of that Josie's ill again. Not sure why kid's always end up sick over holidays. Last Thanksgiving she ate so much turkey she got sick. Of course between my tendonitis and case of the " Lazy A-s"…

Congrats! Curious though How tall are you? At 5'7" female; I'm 50 lbs down to 162 with 8 or more pounds till my final goal ( 155 lbs. will put me in the highest range of a healthy BMI )

Morning Kid's! Braved the scale this morning ( my OCD made me ) down a pound! 50 pounds ! Whoop ! Whoop ! The day after Thanksgiving too. Insert cheesy grin here. Been to the chiropractor first thing this morning. Tendonitis is killing me since yesterday. Must have been lifting that 21 pound turkey. Shoulder's doing that…

Hey Kid's! Wow. All in all I thought I had done pretty good with my protein shake for breakfast, watching my portions, skipping the rolls, skipping the mac & cheese, skipping the mash potatoes, and having no pie. Now I look like I'm pregnant with a small turkey. I may need my husband's help getting this dress off. LOL. I…

LOL. I just spent the last hour trying to see how many calories were in a bacon wrapped turkey? Looks like under 600-900 calories. Going to see some red numbers tomorrow. It's just a day. Back on the wagon Friday. :)

Morning Kid's! I've caught a case of the "Lazy A-s" this week. LOL. Thought of putting myself in maintenance over the Holiday but will probably just let things run their course. Will probably see some red numbers this week. It's a rainy nasty day outside. I'll probably just stay home and prep for tomorrow's cooking. I…

Hey Kid's! Appointment went well. She did seem impressed with my weight loss and lower BMI. I didn't have to mention the weight/BMI at all. She brought them up. LOL. Finger prick came back at 85 so no return of my child hood anemia. Will have to wait for the labs to come back. She didn't mention my former bad labs (…

Morning Kid's! Well off to see the Doctor this morning. Should be fun with my 3 yr. old in tow. Black coffee yuck ;) I'll check back later. Took a nerve pill last night so hopefully I'll have a pleasant appointment this time. LOL Carmel- Cyber hugs sent.

Yum what temperature and how long do they usually take? I love sweet potatoes though don't care for pineapple in mine. :) I usually make the one above with the crunchy coating of nuts, butter, flour, and brown sugar. LOL. Then add a few marshmellows to my husband's side.

Morning Kid's! Probably won't be working out much this weekend. :( Had to go ahead and make a Doctor's appointment for Monday morning. Dreading it since it's with the Doctor who previously gave me hell over my cholesterol numbers. Hopefully she will see my 48 pound loss and wait on the new labs before giving me too much…

Good evening Kid's! Had a great workout at the gym. Managed 12 machines ( I think it was ). 40 minutes strength training in all and another 44 minutes on the elliptical. Spent a lot of time rushing around (( insert me in circles here )). Ended up falling asleep on my sister's couch. LOL. Playing phone tag with my hubby. He…

Hey Kid's! Didn't make it to the gym this morning. Josie's been throwing her fits since last night. Never seen a 3 yr. old be so stubborn. They come less often but she makes up for it. I've taken to wearing those head phone style ear plugs when she's on a tear. Have to take her for the second half of her flu shot this…

Hey Kid's! So I noticed several friends counting weight lifting as cardio. I had only been counting mine as strength so thinking that may have been another factor in my weight loss ( usually 2.5 - 3 lbs. per week instead of the 1 lb. a week). Could also be causing the lack of energy. Anyway weight loss should be slowing…

Your a rock star!

Outstanding! You look very nice in your tux. Not all people do. LOL. Very bond-ish.

Keep it up your doing it!

Great job!

Top Weight was 262 lbs. in my mid 30's. CW 165 lbs. at 42.

Outstanding!

Great job!

Great job! I can see a difference. You'll be in Onederland before you know it!

I tried "Herbalife" in the 6th grade. No loss that I remember. In high school I tried ipaca? syrup exactly one time. What the F--- was I thinking? Desperation. Having my tonsils taken out at 18 made the biggest difference ( not a diet ) I dropped 20 pounds in a month. Looked terrible at 130 lbs. size 7. Now I'm 10 lbs.…

Wow. You were handsome before now your a lean mean fighting machine! Congrats!

Hey Kid's! So I'm beginning to think my husband might prefer thick girls. I knew he doesn't like super skinny girls. Last night I noticed I was developing shoulders now. When I showed him..he says "Doesn't do anything for me". LOL after 20 yrs. he is stuck with me. Took a picture in my old favorite jeans ( new profile…

Awesome job!

Stef123633- I'll have to go check. 500 mg sounds right but I take two. Mine say HLC or HCL. Though I was some where between 243 lbs. and 262 lbs. when I was originally diagnosed in 2009. Going to go ahead and make an appointment soon ; though they usually just fuss about my cholesterol numbers when I go.

Morning Kid's! It's super cold this morning. A pair of tights under my jeans kind of day. Curious- I may have to break down and make a Doctor's appointment. May need to adjust my metformin to half a dose though some mornings I forget them and end up taking both doses closer together. I even put a magnetic strip on the back…

Morning Kid's! Mygnsac-I need to make some of those protein bars since you haven't sent me any. LOL Larro- Can't wait for tax return so I can't work on the yard again. Kept putting too much off the last couple years. This year I will plant some mums. I miss having their color in the later months. I mainly love my…
