Ok this is way off topic but... If you are a Star Trek fan at all ... GO SEE THE STAR TREK MOVIE!! We saw it last night at IMAX & it was great fun! Can you tell it's Friday and I don't have a work deadline until Monday morning? :laugh: Beth, your birthday is my anniversary! Cool! Off to hang out with my soon to be flying…

Welcome back Sara! Were you in the Smokies? Where? Your AV is so cute & it looks like you had a great view...

Happy Anniversary everybody! Janie, our 27th anniversary is on June 12. My daughter & son-in-law have their first anniversary on June 14! :happy: :heart: Tresa

Sounds like some of us are here (from Banks' great post on expectations, which I just bumped http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/9433-expectations) ~~~~~~~~~~~ Phase 4. Really digging in. This is where the second wall can happen. You're probably at between 3 and 4 months by now, and if you have gone this far, you feel…

This needs a bump ... I definitely need to read it again.

I like the idea of making next week a new week 1 ... maybe I can kick myself in the butt and get it in gear. I looked back through my food diary to when I was staying within my calories & losing steadily & printed those off. I think next week I'm going to follow those meal plans instead of failing to plan anything and…

I was so sad to see that Nicky had left, too ... anybody know what happened? As for me ... I'm not really trying very hard. I guess I'm in a place right now where other stuff seems more pressing than being real careful about what I eat. I'm not going to let myself gain more than the 2 pounds I've put back on, but I'm…

Janie ... you & your family are in my thoughts & prayers! {{{{{hugs}}}}}}} I'm so sorry for your loss... lean on the ones who love you! God bless, :heart: :heart: :heart: Tresa

You look great Nicky!!

Good one, Sara ... (you look ADORABLE in you AV, by the way!!!) I'm still around, still struggling. I know what my problem is. I'm bored with just about everything I'm doing right now, and most especially having to focus on my weight, food choices, etc. And I'm stressed because everything is changing ... how's that for…

:heart: :heart: :heart: Bumping so I can find y'all later when I have some time to at least read! :noway: :heart: :heart: :heart:

Whew y'all ... the guardian angels were out in full force after us today! Glad you're okay Lori & Andrew!! :heart: :flowerforyou: :heart: Marla ...hang in there ... let us know how everything is going! Too brain dead to remember what else is going on at the moment ... :ohwell: I dunno about ovaries of steel ... mine seem…

Well ... I'm sorry it's happening to you but kind of relieved that I'm not alone!!! I'm not giving up ... just coming to grips with the fact that this is going to take a really really long time and I have to take it slow with plenty of breaks where I am not real focused. I guess that is how maintenance will be, so I'm…

Hey y'all ... I'm not dead, haven't moved away, or completely given up... just don't know what's been going on with me. I've been pretty down in the dumps. Every time I get consistent with my exercise and start to feel really good something happens ... I start to feel like I'm coming down with flu or something. I'm pretty…

Great challenge, Sam!! Sorry I've been MIA ... crazy busy work & life ... :ohwell: Still hanging in there & actually had a good week until last night when I succumbed to the stress & binged a bit. Back on track today so far, though! Have a great day, Black Team! :heart: Tresa

Ok, I'm in ... except for this Saturday night ... my longsuffering husband had planned a birthday party for me back the Saturday after my BD ... but I had a gig that night and had not mentioned it to him! (of course it WAS on the calendar, but ... oh well) anyway ... it's my party this Saturday night. I'll make sure I have…

Accidents will happen ... :wink: Your concert sounds really exciting ... wish I could have been there to hear you and see the pages flying! Sometimes a page-turner is a good idea ... sometimes not ... take a look at this ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LWqFaGwNCMU :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: I wish I could find the clips of…

You have NOT let us down ... this is about a long-term lifestyle change! We all are always going to have weeks ... more than weeks in my case! :noway: that we slack off. The key is that you are here and you will get back on track! It's what happens over months & years that counts!! Just decide today that you can make one…

Oooh Lynnie! That is gorgeous, girl! I love it! :heart: Tresa

If you have a Trader Joes anywhere nearby, they have a great nonfat Greek yogurt that is lots cheaper!

Ok, Alex... What is "Pirates of Penzance?" :tongue:

Haha ... same here! I changed majors after one trip to the classroom to teach a music class. Of course, I switched to elem ed with a music minor ... and never worked in either thing!! Oh well, I got my MRS degree!! LOL Still gotta have music in my life though! Can't do without singing at least three times a week somewhere…

That's awesome!! I hope getting out of there will make you feel lots better!! :heart: :heart: :heart: Tresa

You got it! Hey ... what kind of concert are you having on Monday? I like this challenge! I try to take a little bit of time every day to read or relax some, but maybe I'll find some other little rewards, too. :heart: Tresa

Ugh ... I've been binge-ish today too. Not sure what is wrong with me either. :grumble: :indifferent: Oh well, tomorrow is a new day with no mistakes in it.

Hey Beth ... we can creep together. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

I usually avoid that thread... but now I'm curious. Will sleepiness or curiosity win? Hmmmm.... Gee Sam ... you are looking skinny there girl!! Yay!

Okay, okay ... Howdy Doody Black Team ... time for bed ... nite nite!

Well, all y'all definitely made me smile this evening!! Thanks!! Love to all, :heart: Tresa:heart:

Hey Black Team ... I'm back in stealth mode for the time being ... in a funk and still not feeling great. Under the weather literally and figuratively ... but this week looks better so I'm hopeful.... Haven't been outside ... the weather this whole week has been some of the nastiest, reeallly, that we've had for most of…
