Just checking in ladies. I had another good day. I ate very well and hubby and I worked out in the yard most of day. We are putting a fence up for the dog so she can have her own space. she has been loose in our big yard and has torn up everything in the yard. She is a lab and they are so playful but loves to chew. She…

Good afternoon ladies, I am a long lost member of this group. About 2 years lost. I touched base with Barbie this morning and she sent me the link. When I was a faithful fitness pal member I lost 50 pounds and was slim, and energetic. I of course have gained it back. I am now ready to get it done hopefully for good. My…

Good Morning ladies, I am not doing too good with my posting. I have been very busy with MIL. today is her last day. I have really enjoyed having her. The only issue is that I have to stay home most of the time. I am used to being able to go. I got used to it though. Had to be very organized and made sure when out I got…

Good Morning ladies, I know I said I would post and I haven't. Please accept my apology. Things have been crazy but no excuse. I am just not in the habit again yet. I started this on 10 weeks ago and have lost 32 pounds thus far. It is the Eat to Live Diet and it is a great lifestyle for me. All the fruits and veggies I…

Good morning ladies, I am checking in like I promised I would. I slept in a little this morning which felt good. I am now up and have had my morning smoothie and am catching up on computer. Not sure what the day will bring. Hubby is at work, Beth and family are on the way back from Disney, Shawn's family at soccer games,…

Hello ladies, I am not a newbie but for most of you that is what I will be. I have not posted for quite a while. I am back because of a gentle nudging by Barbie. Thanks Barbie. I started on this site several years ago. (cannot remember exactly when) and lost 50 pounds and kept it off for quite a while. Then all of a sudden…

Barbie, Just had to comment on your post about negative resentment. I do this so often in my mind, especially with my daughters. I jump to conclusions and then when I find out the whole story feel stupid and like a child. I need to practice this so thanks for the input. Keep them coming. I am sure there are many others I…

Good morning ladies, Just skimmed some of the posts. 8 pages in 6 days. Wow. That is incredibly great. Amanda I am so sorry for you. Just think good thoughts and say some prayers. The worst possible thing in the world for me would be to be cut off from my grandchildren. Now that your daughter is a mom she may see things…

Good morning ladies, Have skimmed posts but not time to read pages right now. Posted a quick post on Monday but so quick did not realize it was already 500 so post is out in cyberspace somewhere. Ever wonder where it goes when it does not post. Anyway, a late Happy Mother's Day to those in UK. happy Wednesday to everyone…

Good morning ladies, Kind of dreary here. Hopefully sun will come out later in day. With time change maybe sun is just not out yet. Got to gym last night. Kenneth and Heather and I went about 8 pm. Had a great workout. I love the gym, just wish it was not so hard to get there. It is getting very crowded (which is a good…

Good morning ladies, I missed a day. Friday night Heather and I took 5 of grandchildren to Lafayette to spend the night. My Godchild's birthday party was sat morn and we took kids. Then we shopped til we dropped then home. We gave Heather 30th birthday party and was my job to keep her away til time to start. It was a…

I just read posts and had to comment on mammogram story. Oh my so funny but kind of scary. I never thought about what would happen if power went out while they were squeezed. Ouch just thinking of it.

Beth is fine and did well. she has internal cystitis. It is unknown as to how you get it and is incurable, but treatable. He blew up her bladder and filled it with antibiotics and says she should be good for several years. There are foods to avoid and herbal pill she can take to help. Will post later. vicki m

Good morning ladies Just a quick note. About to head out the door. Beth is having cystoscope this morning to check her bladder and kidneys. She had a hysterectomy back in Nov. and has been having bladder problems ever since. She had this as a child and we are hoping that this is all that it is and not anything serious.…

Good morning ladies, Well I made it a week . Good food, exercise and I feel wonderful. So glad to be back on track. Still weighing every day. Will record my loss in a few days. I seem to do better about every 10 days for some strange reason. Yesterday after working out Kenneth and I got a nice salad for lunch and came home…

Good morning ladies, It is a beautiful cool and sunny morning here in South Louisiana. I am actually liking this everyday weigh in. So far a loss each and every day. I know it is only the first week and that wont last but will enjoy while it does. We had a great time last night at Beth's. We boiled crawfish and ken and I,…

Will get to the gym a little later and not sure what the rest of the day will bring. I cant wait until MOnday to record weight, was down another 2 pounds this morning. That is a first. LOL. (…

Good evening and Happy March ladies, I posted this morning but guess posted in wrong place. I am still doing good. With both food and exercise. We went to the gym again tonight. I have been cooking good healthy meals. I am having a problem with water retention. 4 kids and menopause and I have never retained like this. I…

Good Morning ladies, Wow the first of March already. Good thing about time passing so quickly is that I will be thin again sooner. LOL I know I have been away a while but has the site changed some things. Can we know longer do our goals under our ticker. I could not find the signature feature to put them and I see none of…

Good morning ladies, OOPs I did not notice that I posted on part two after 500 and post disappeared. So here I go again. I have done very well past two days. I told my husband that if I could kick my own butt I would do it about 20 times a day. I feel so good eating right and exercising that I dont know why I ever stopped.…

Susie, A lot of hotels now have a busines area and have computers to use free of charge. that way you can log on and keep track on the road. Hope this helps. be safe. If you drive through Louisiana stop and see me.

Good Morning ladies, Day 2 of my recommittment. I did good yesterday. I ate well and stayed withing calories and got some exercise in. I feel so much better even after one day. The scales were down this morning 3 pounds. I know that is just water and changing my habits but I will take it. Oh I forgot to post yesterday that…

Good morning ladies, First let me apologize for my absence for such a long time. I really do not even know the last time I logged in. It has been a whirlwind of activities for me and I have just not logged at all. I am doing okay. Up a few pounds but trying to stay with the program. Kenneth and I started a new gym a month…

Good morning ladies, Up early this morning. Could not go back to sleep after Kenneth left for work so got up. Guess that means I slept well. That is a good thing. I am starving so anxious to eat my breakfast. Guess that means my metabolism is working so another good thing. Will exercise later. I have lots of errands to do…
